Biggest Burrittos Ever! – This was and still is one of the best late night spots to get food. Especially after the club, no long waits like at the waffle house. It's not very pretty but at night when you hungry, who cares! The burrittos are huge and equally tasty. They have fed me and my husband many a late college night. And we still enjoy going.

Yummy, healthy, and cheap! – Cosmic has fantastic, fresh, inexpensive Mexican food. A great "college" type atmosphere, with good lighting, music, and service. The food is delicious and they offer lots of vegetarian and vegan options.
