Dining quality feels mixed

Some residents and families describe food as good or excellent, including a restaurant-like dining setup and regular meals served in the dining room. Others were unhappy, describing the dining experience as the worst they’ve had, with concerns about variety and preparation. Taken together, dining appears to be an area where expectations may differ from resident to resident.
