I've heard mixed reviews about the food hall. I hear it's overcrowded, overpriced, and not as good as the many restaurants surrounding it.

first time i've been, so i'm not sure, but the noodles were a bit overpriced ... admittedly, i have not eaten ramen noodles in a very long time, but i've eaten a couple of times at places that serve them ... these were $14 ... nice sized bowl that was smaller than most asian noodle bowls you get, which are too big in any event, though it's less food than normal ... saw a couple of other places where various plates/items seemed to be a few dollars more than normal ... gyro plate was $15, i think ... it's airy and open, so there's a lot of noise ... almost felt like a nightclub at times with the bar in the middle and the music overhead ...

I've been once. Had a poke bowl from Ono Poke. It was really good.

Plan on trying the Raman next, or the Caribbean joint.

As to the crowd, it was busy when I went at lunch, but it also just opened like 2 weeks ago, so it's still new and fresh and everyone's trying it.

May be a little over priced, as most things looked in the $11-15 range. But nowadays for something decent, that's about par for the course
