Clark Center NeXus

Went there yesterday, 1÷7÷14, and they had special of the day for salad, it was delicious! It involved arugula, mushrooms, pepper vinaigrette, and I added smoked salmon. The salad was almost too much for me to eat, originally priced $ 6.50, with salmon 8.50, and I got dressing on the side and they charged me $.50 wut. Anyway it was impeccable, the extra $ 2.00 for salmon was worth it, not a very smokey taste but a lot of it!
Pricey, but worth it, the food is divine!

Really nice selection of food, grill, and salad bar to select from. I have been here several times and the food is better than the hospital’s cafeteria and larger too. It would be nice if the seating was not long table and rows of chairs. Also would be nice if theyhad more outlets to plug your computer and phone into.

If it’s not Tuesday or Thursday (days that they serve bbq outside of CCSR), I go to Clark Center.
They have a lot of different types of food and the quality is better than any cafeteria-​style place I’ve ever eaten. The prices are reasonable and the salad bar is huge! I’ve had their burgers, quesadillas, and burritos and haven’t been dissatisfied.
If it’s Monday, go there. They have tasty indian food every Monday.

Came here for a vegetarian burrito and was impressed the first time around (fresh and organic veggies accompanied by yummy tofu). I couldn’t stop raving to my friends about how great the Clark Center burritos were and when I finally returned and ordered the same burrito I couldn’t even finish half of it because it was SO SPICY — it hurt to eat it! I hate it when food isn’t consistent. The price is a little more than a lot of burrito places in the area but considering it’s Stanford paying $ 6.50 or so for lunch is the norm.
There’s lots of seating (both indoors and outdoors at the Clark Center though it does get super busy around lunch time — prepare to wait in line for a burrito for around 10 minutes and a few more minutes at the checkout).
I find myself wanting to go back but am a little afraid. I’ll probably give it another shot but am a bit skeptical at this point.

Its just like Google, except you have to pay for your food.
This place has a pretty cool techie/​doctor vibe. I saw very few undergrads, if any.
I had a burrito (a bit like Chipotle) with carnitas and it was great! I also saw salads, drinks (naked juice etc.), pizzas, and maybe indian food?
I’d have to come back a few more times to try everything, since the place serves food cafeteria style, but I think I would upgrade it to 5 stars.

The pizza, though neither thick nor thin, was pretty fulfilling. But at $ 3.50-$ 4.00 per slice, you may be left feeling a little light in the wallet. This is not for homeless people.

When I was younger and still single, my grandmother used to throw Tic Tacs in my direction whenever she thought there was an opportunity for me to be conversing with eligible doctors. Well, the Tic Tacs would have been flying here! Located in the James H. Clark Center, the home of Stanford’s Bio-​X program, the Clark Center Café is where many of Stanford’s medical and science minds lunch. Much of the clientele in this venue sported scrubs and lab coats. The food was decent. The salad bar while fantastic is a place where you could get into financial trouble as it is charged by weight. My lunch companion had a big juicy burger that made me wonder what the doctor-​looking types around us would think! There were lots of menu options in this café. If you decide to lunch here, go early or wait until about 1PM. The place filled up very quickly, then suddenly emptied out.

Good for a change of pace from my usual fare of packed lunches. There are a bunch of different cuisines represented. It’s better than most cafeteria foods, but not much. Their pizza is surprisingly good. It’s easy to spend way too much money for what you’re getting. The nice open space also makes you feel you’re someplace modern and pleasant even if the food is unremarkable.
