UC's Food Services is committed to providing delicious and nutritious options for students with special dietary needs. Soon you will be able to view our new SodexoMyWay site to view menus ahead of time. This is one the best tools for students with special diets or allergies because it provides insight to what is being served at each location and can help with planning and decision making.

If you have a severe food allergy, intolerance, or special dietary accommodation, please consult with the location Manager or our registered dietitian.


Vegan & Vegetarian

We strive to provide students with plant-forward options in our dining centers. At CenterCourt, we have a vegan entree and side option daily. Throughout our dining centers, we offer plant-forward meals which features various vegan and vegetarian dishes every day.

We also provide plant-based proteins on our salad bars at all locations- this includes options such as tofu, beans, quinoa and hummus. Veggie burgers are available at every grill station upon request.

Gluten Friendly

Though none of our facilities are certified gluten-free facilities, we do offer a variety of food made without gluten. OTG, CenterCourt & StadiumView pizza stations offers gluten-free dough upon request. All Deli stations offer gluten-free bread across our dining locations. Our Simple Servings station at MarketPointe offers made-to-order pasta with various toppings. 

Simple Servings

Do you have a food allergy? Our Simple Servings station can help!

Simple Servings is Sodexo’s innovative solution to proactively address most of the ingredients that account for 90% of all food-allergy reactions: milk, eggs, wheat, soy, shellfish, sesame, peanuts, and tree nuts. Simple Servings also appeals to students who prefer plain and simple foods and those with other health-related dietary concerns, such as Type I diabetes. With Simple Servings, students can comply with food allergy or other dietary concerns without feeling singled out. They won’t have to go off campus for their meals or miss out on dining with their friends while waiting for the chef to specially prepared their meals.

You will find Simple Serving stations at OTG, CenterCourt and MarketPointe. All foods offered at the Simple Serving station are naturally free of milk, eggs, wheat, soy, shellfish, sesame, peanuts, tree nuts and gluten. Straightforward preparation techniques assure transparency of ingredients, and help student prepare to be responsible for their own shopping and cooking in future.The lunch and dinner menu change daily and include varied protein options: fish, beef, pork, chicken and turkey. All side dishes are vegan, containing no milk, eggs, or meat products.
