Resumo: The services sector plays an important role in the economy. It is present in several organizations, either public or private, small or large, all of them are related to the services sector, to a greater or lesser extent. That being said, this work aims to evaluate a university restaurant’s quality services under the users’ perspective. A descriptive quantitative approach was adopted, and the obtained data were analyzed according to statistical analysis. The target audience was composed of students who attended the university restaurant. The simple random sampling technique was applied to collect data from 200 respondents. An adaptation of the SERVQUAL customer perception tool was used, a questionnaire was applied to restaurant users in order to evaluate their expectations and perceptions regarding the services. In general, users' expectations exceeded the performance of services, highlighting the existence of gaps for all items analyzed. Thus, as a result of the evaluation of the university restaurant, there are pieces of evidence that users do not have a good perception regarding the quality of services. It is necessary that the restaurant’s management committee develop strategies to better meet the needs of its users.

Está presente en varias organizaciones, ya sean públicas o privadas, pequeñas o grandes, todas las cuales operan en los servicios, en mayor o menor medida. Por lo tanto, este trabajo tiene como objetivo evaluar la calidad del servicio prestado por un Restaurante Universitario, según la percepción de los usuarios. Se utilizó un enfoque descriptivo cuantitativo, en el que los datos obtenidos se analizaron estadísticamente. El público objetivo estaba compuesto por estudiantes universitarios que asistían al restaurante en cuestión. La investigación se llevó a cabo mediante un simple muestreo probabilístico aleatorio, obteniendo 200 encuestados. Se realizó una adaptación del modelo SERVQUAL, se aplicó un cuestionario a los usuarios de los restaurantes, buscando evaluar sus expectativas y percepciones sobre los servicios. En general, las expectativas de los usuarios superaron el rendimiento de los servicios, lo que demuestra la existencia de lagunas en todos los elementos analizados. Así pues, a la vista de los resultados de la evaluación del Restaurante Universitario hay pruebas de que los usuarios no tienen una buena percepción de la calidad de los servicios. Es necesario que la dirección del establecimiento elabore estrategias para satisfacer mejor las necesidades de sus usuarios.O setor de serviços desempenha um papel importante na economia.
