Usu Cafe - Bethesda

From the online advertisements, I was expecting a cozy café that would serve coffee and sandwiches. Instead, I discovered a cafeteria that resembled the one I dined at in the main hospital at Walter Reed. The coffee was average, and the bagel was only mediocre. I chose to have it toasted and picked from a variety of creamy mini spreads. I won’t be returning.

The food at this restaurant is quite good, but their policies leave something to be desired. There's an outdated $5 minimum for credit card transactions, and the registers are frequently understaffed.

The cook at the grill is respectful but does not maintain cleanliness. He never wears gloves while handling food, which is concerning. Additionally, he uses a lot of oil when cooking. I noticed that there are mouse traps left out in the open, and this raises hygiene concerns that should be addressed.

Eating is moderate and too expensive. grotten are either to water with tons of butter or too thick and hafer flour is muddy and the price is ridiculous, must pay for hot water/water. Nude smoothie drinks are over $4, need to pay for butter and cream cheese when buying bagels etc. special daily are sometimes overloaded with vegetables, then the actual meat. e.g. chicken roasts, prices should be reduced
