        Located in the central area of the dormitories is Palo Verde Main. At the heart of PV Main are “Devils Greens”, “Devils Bistro” and the “Devils Diner”. This is such a significant location amongst the residents because it is their main food source at the dorms for PV West, East and Main. Since students do not have much time, nor room to cook inside their small dormitories it is essential that a variety of food restaurants be provided. It is in walking distance from all the dorms and open late, which is particularly convenient to students.  The variety of food makes PV Main such a success because it provides food for many different tastes. “Devils Greens” serves very healthy food such as: fruit, salads, soups and vegetables. The “Devils Bistro” is an Italian style restaurant that serves various types of pizzas, green beans, rice, and a different Italian pasta everyday such as: fettucine, spaghetti, lasagna and much more. Of the three, the “Devils Diner” contains the most variety and is very popular amongst students, serving: chicken, burgers, pancakes, waffles, quesadillas, desserts and much more. The diner has a 1950’s theme, and provides booths and tables for seating. It also has a jukebox that allows individuals to listen to music while enjoying a delicious meal.
        Eating is affordable and easy at Arizona State because there are various meal plans to choose from. The meal plans allow residents to eat without having to worry about making or buying food. The plans allow residents to customize how much they want to eat and how much they are willing to pay. 
        Palo Verde Main is more than just a place to eat, but also a dormitory. It is a place where students can relax, be with friends and socialize amongst each other. Since the residents are all separated based on their major; all of the engineers reside in the PVM residence hall. This is of great benefit to these students because many of them are taking similar or the same classes, which can motivate them to study and work together to do better academically.
