People don't seem to be able to control their darn kids. They run all around screaming. Teens are not much better,they think they are the only ones there and knock people over and are so rude. Parents sure don't teach them well, that is for sure.
Food is good, you can pick out what you want and it is cheaper.

Not enough seating

There arent usuallt lines where i go, noise doesnt bother me, and i would go somewhere else if i didnt like the food :/ nothing more awkward then turning in circles looking for a seat and ending up walking around and eating, dropping food on the floor haha

I make it a point when I do go to the mall, To go during there slowest times of the day and never on a weekend either, When school is in session, I find going to the mall very enjoyable then.

I wouldnt say it is not enough seating I am more inclined towards inadequate seating like hard wood benches or the hard metal chairs..

We don't really have your kind of food courts in the NL, but I've seen them abroad. And all I saw was junk food, maybe an overpriced smoothie stall somewhere, but mostly junkfood...

I don't think I've ever seen a food court where the food wasn't some salt and fat-laden delicacy.

More specifically, the fact that the only restaurant that isn't horribly over-priced is closed on Sundays. (Chik-fil-A)

I'd say pretty much everything. They are all extremely dirty, the food is usually ridiculously overpriced, greasy, disgusting, lines are always a long wait, seating is always awkward, too many people (and basass children) congregating in one area for sure. . . I hate malls, and especially hate and avoid food courts.

It's quieter in Times Square than it is at the Staten Island Mall's food court. Almost as bad are the 10 year olds who hang out there and bump into you as you're eating. Food, not so bad. Love Taco Bell, Nathan's and Cajun. Well, besides carrots.

*not knowing what is in the food.

I never eat at places like that, I will happily sit down in a restaurant or pub or get a takeaway from a local shop, but food courts and fast food make me sick.
