I like this place. It indeed has food. The food is indeed edible. It was $13 per person for an all-you-can-eat buffet with many delicious options for what you can eat. Even during the dinner rush, there was food ready available for us, and the food was never cold. My friends and I got some spring rolls, fish and rice, pickle chips, burger and onion rings, fruit (cantaloupe and honeydew), and mozzarella sticks. As for dessert, my friends got some chocolate pudding, dessert rolls, and nutella-bars. The only complaints were the pudding was a bit bland and the honeydew was a tad old, but besides that, EVERYTHING ELSE was sooooooo delicious!!! I would particularly recommend the burger. They have pretty much every drink imaginable. Nearly too many drink options! I got the Barq's orange cream soda. Would recommend; my friend says the chocolate milk is a must have. There is a new "allergy friendly" food bar in the back corner. It serves gluten free burger buns, but they look like your stereotypical crumbly buns. There was plenty of allergy friendly food in the other food bars though. The food servers surprisingly did NOT look dead inside, which is unusual considering they work in the food industry. Quite the welcome surprise. I asked if a dressing on some rice had dairy, and they found out quickly and friendly (it did). When I asked for a plate without the dressing, they compiled a smile. It was very welcoming. The atmosphere was indeed breathable. Jokes aside, the building is filled with several different style themes that all felt different, but fit together as a whole nicely. The ceiling is fairly high making a grand/epic feeling. There is both open seating and more enclosed seating (my friends and I choose the latter). There is seating both by the windows, by the wall, and in the middle of the room. The window view wasn't quite "I must take a photo of this" beautiful, but it was by no means unpleasant. ALSO, everything was so CLEAN! There were no crumbs on the seats, and the tables were spotless! As the cannon center is in the middle of BYU, it makes sense that there isn't a lot of parking, so we had a short walk from the parking spot to the entrance, but it was worth it. All in all, I would highly recommend this place. The food is delicious, the customer service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is great. Me and my friends had an absolute blast!

They list which dishes are Gluten Free Friendly at each counter. However I did get sick either from cross contamination because it is a buffet or because something was mislabeled. I don't think it is a Celiac Safe place to eat.
