“The new Dining Room in Greensboro is truly jaw-dropping spectacular. It went far beyond expectations of the design plans. It's beautiful, and a totally different feeling. Everyone there is quite proud of it.”

“The success of UNC's Holmes Dining Hall has resulted in a dining facility that sets a new standard for college food service. Your input and direction was instrumental throughout the design and construction process. It goes without saying that UNC will always be willing to provide an unequivocal recommendation for The Baker Group as it continues to work with other colleges and universities.”

“The comment ‘you and your team really hit a long ball!’ was completely unique in my experience at any DFD interview. No one has ever given any immediate feed back, so they must have been impressed. You did an outstanding job and we achieved a ‘synergy’ as a team. ‘Thank you’ seems insufficient, but thank you!!”

“The Baker Group was great to work with; they made everything easier. Jim was very attentive to our specific project needs. He worked closely with our food service contractor to make certain our interests were represented. There was no question that loyalty was placed unconditionally with us as the client. I felt very good about that because I knew that no matter what, he spoke with our voice.”

“The Piazza facility on our campus set the stage for a new level of dining experiences. We’re hearing more and more that the quality of the food services is a positive factor in deciding to attend the University of Northern Iowa. Listening, understanding the vision for food services, creativity and innovation are all words that I use to describe involvement from The Baker Group on this project.”

"It's rare to have a relationship that works like ours; where we don't haggle over fees and have to be constantly in touch in order to meet construction schedules. I can count on one hand the number of problems we've had with Baker Group.”
