	+ ------ + ''2009-11-05 12:23:37'' [[nbsp]] This place has literally changed my life. I can't believe I didn't come sooner. You can get a salad card - 10 salads for around $45 -- CHEAP! and the salad bar is the best salad bar I've ever met. I come here and fill up on all kinds of amazing stuff, AND you can get bread (which they give to you warmed). Salad bar has great variety and different items every day and I can get my lunch in just a few minutes. Examples of what I find on a regular day: ORGANIC cherry tomatoes, cottage cheese, lettuce, spinach, garbanzos, sliced hardboiled eggs, green beans, corn, artichoke hearts... Service has always been pleasant and friendly. I cannot recommend highly enough. --["Users/soledad101"]

- ''2009-03-08 13:06:07'' [[nbsp]] Actually, a lot has really changed in the restaurant. Sodexo and Student Affairs spent about 40,000 renovating the interior and adding new furniture and art. It's much more contemporary than the former Silo Cafe & Pub and the menu now showcases several UC Davis produced foods, from the Student Farm to the campus meat lab, there are many campus foods that can't be enjoyed anywhere else. That's pretty cool. No hard alcohol but, plenty of beer and wine, if that's your thing. A tip on timing. Showing up at 12noon straight up is the bussiest time but, show up at 11:45 or 12:30 and you can get out of there pretty fast. --["Users/RobinClement"]	+ ''2009-03-08 13:06:07'' [[nbsp]] Actually, a lot has really changed in the restaurant.

The food is also very good. I recently went there and tried the pepper seared prawns with polenta. Generous serving of garlic seared prawns with the most delicious grilled polenta. Also, The Gunrock Pub is named after the university’s mustang mascot. --["Users/LokiAbbi"]	+ ''2009-06-12 11:15:00'' [[nbsp]] I work at UC Davis and can vouch that the service is great now and has been for awhile.

	+ ------ + ''2009-10-02 12:04:29'' [[nbsp]] I've only been there a few times, but the service has been at least decent and occasionally good. The food has been delicious -- a bit on the pricey side, but definitely high quality and executed well. Even the appetizers they have during their wine nights are usually pretty yummy. --["Users/jmofro"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-03-10 18:11:38'' [[nbsp]] I'll come right out and admit that I'm the manager at the Gunrock Pub, and was the manager when we were still the Silo Cafe & Pub. Am I biased? Sure I am, but I am also genuinely concerned about some of the things I've seen posted here, and on the page for the old Pub too. I realize we've had some challenges in the past with the timeliness of our service, but if anybody ever waited 45 or 55 minutes to be served, they didn't bring it to my attention, and it certainly was not a regular occurrence. A quick note to everyone; if you ever wait that long to eat at ANY restaurant, ask to talk to the manager. Having said that, Robin is absolutely right that timing is everything. If you arrive at 12:00 noon, along with the other 50 to 75 people we seat at that time, you may wait a few extra minutes. Try to get here at 11:30 or wait till 1:00 if you can. Some have said all we changed was our name. Heck, I already pointed out that even the management is the same. But that’s a good thing. I have a vested interest in the restaurant, and my guests. I promise you, no I guarantee you, that the service has changed. Will we still have challenging days? Yes, but we are continuously working to mitigate the impact on our guests. My staff and I are dedicated to providing the most pleasant dinning experience we possibly can. If you have questions or concerns, please come in talk to me about them (just don’t come by at noon; I’ll be busy serving everyone else). See you soon. --["Users/ShawnC"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-01-08 13:31:11'' [[nbsp]] The folks where I work have had pretty bad luck eating at the Silo Pub. They tend to not give you your food for 45 minutes, or 55 minutes, or in some cases, maybe ever. This is not advantageous if you only GET an hour to eat. + + The Aggie recently mentioned in an article on the "new" pub that they are really working on the service and trying to get people out within an hour. According to a coworker of mine who went today, this is still not true and it is just as bad as the "old" pub. + + Warning to anyone reading this page who only gets an hour lunch: don't eat here if you have any kind of time limit. The food is okay, but so not worth the wait when you can walk to the downtown area, eat at a sitdown restaurant, and still get back to campus within an hour. Unlike the campus restaurant. --["Users/JenniferRutherford"]
