Of the four student dining halls on the main UGA Campus, Oglethorpe Commons is the best for a full dinner. The atmosphere is middling, but the burritos and hot food line in the back are both guaranteed to satisfy all but the most distinguished tastes. Not the best for a light lunch, as most options are hearty rather than quick, and lines can exceed 20 minutes, especially for the Tex-Mex cuisine. Pictured is a coconut curry from the hot line, though be aware that the available choices are rotating and may vary. Southern Delights is also an excellent low-wait choice with great hot chicken and green beans!

The dirtiest of all the dining halls with a long hibachi line just for hibachi that was so bad I didn’t even eat it. You also have to go behind the sketchy construction area. I promptly left and went to Bolton for skillet pasta.

The hibachi is great. I recommend getting fried rice w/ steak and chicken w/steak seasoning and red chili flakes. However, I don't recommend trying their cookies but definitely their icecreams

The seating areas are really nice with a pretty view, but in terms of actual food options it falls short compared to other UGA dinning halls.

O House is not bad, mind you- especially if you live in Russell/Brumby/Creswell and are completely sick of eating at Bolton. However, with the advent of NEW BOL'TON, O House sinks to the bottom of the dining hall barrel. The choices are not great, and the grill is straight up bad, but they do have the Asian cuisine line going for them, and an actual coffee bar. Beyond that, not enough seating, cramped, and often really hot inside. Again, not bad by any means, but it's not good enough to be something special.

Great options. The best part is that they will fix Hibachi fresh for you and you watch them cook it.
