Rodeo Burger is back! It's not just for the students anyone can come enjoy the food and atmosphere. We have Starbucks drinks and milk shakes. The fry seasoning is especially good. We make the burger sauce in house with fresh ingredients. The grilled cheese sandwiches are great! We offer falafel vegan burger option. Great restaurant!

Terrible service one of the lady making the drinks was rude and condescending. I asked for no ice in my drink ( I don’t like ice in my drink) and they gave me a half filled cup. RIDICULOUS. When I asked a worker why my drink was half empty this lady jumped in and started saying in a really loud voice “ this is what you paid for , I can’t just fill it up because you didn’t pay for the rest of it” I asked for no ice so i understand it not being filled up all the way but for my drink to be half empty is unacceptable. I paid almost $7 for this drink yet I get a half empty drink and an employee saying I didn’t pay enough. Even if the recipe for the drink calls for Half ice and half drink(which doesn’t make sense ) that is no way to be talking to a customer.

Just horrible. Used to be a great place to grab a meal, take it back to your room, and enjoy it. Open until 10pm, it was a great place to eat after failing your midterm. Now the menu can fit on a note card and half the time the stuff on the menu isn't available. For example since nobody goes there now, they don't make fries unless you request them. So you end up eating most of your meal before you even get them. But wait, there's more! New to spring 2018 the new and improved Clyde's, open for an incredible 4 hours each day! Stop by between 10:30 and 2:30, and we'll have your meal ready just as soon as we get the frying oil warmed up and the dry, hard cookies off the shelf from 3 weeks ago.

Really good pulled pork grilled cheese. All of the different kinds of fries are good as well. The best way to order is using the get app and using flex meals which works as long as you're under 9 dollars which is basically a meal.
