The new restaurant is called Laobiao, and I can only say that it tastes really bad. The Guilin rice noodles are tasteless. Later, I tried the old friend rice noodles and fried skewers. They were really not delicious and not worth the price. I went to eat there. Friends, think twice.
Food isn't fresh...... radish isn't chewable. I doubt the food safety issue. just don't come, there are tons of other Chinese restaurants here.

Ordered a rice noodle and found a small fly and sticky yellow stuff on the squid. The waitress said it’s inevitable without any apology. Great place to come if u want to ruin the rest of ur day.

Delicious house made noodles with a nice view of Green Street for people watching. The restaurant itself is fairly casual and sparsely decorated but clean. You order from a digital menu which consists of a range of mainly noodle dishes and rice bowls. I had the braised beef noodle soup with egg noodles and found it delicious. The noodles were perfectly chewy and springy, and paired well with the rich, flavorful broth and well spiced (although somewhat dry) meat). The portion was huge (for my appetite at least, I say others devour the same dish) and left plenty of leftovers. I do wish it came with a few more toppings to balance out the heaps of noodles.

Solid authentic Chinese fast food option. Food is fresh and cooked well. Portions are large and about what you’d expect to get for the price. Atmosphere is like a cafe and less like a restaurant. The menu on the wall is only in chinese though.

Long wait time not good option if you’re in a rush. Noodles were okay but not super great there are better authentic Chinese restaurants on campus. Staff was very condescending in a rude way toward me it was obvious they didn’t want me inside their restaurant and I didn’t feel welcome. Perhaps the reason for this treatment was due to the fact that I’m not a Chinese student. If you’re a Chinese student perhaps you’ll receive much better treatment or maybe they just treat all customers in that regard (but I’d sure hope not.) Anyway overall based off my experience I wouldn’t necessarily recommend there are some other really great Chinese restaurants within a .5 mile radius. Although you could tell they try to recreate the Chinese experience as if you’re inside a restaurant in Beijing and their menu is written in mandarin which is a really nice touch so I give them props for that.
Whether it is delivery or dine in, everything is too slow. Food takes 1 hour + to be delivered, dine in also takes 40minites for the half of the food to come out. I will never order from this restaurant again.
Good soup
Not bad noodles
Restaurantji Recommends
somehow
The noodles are okay, but the rice bowl is all white rice except for the small layer of meat slices on the surface... There are too few ingredients and it is not cost-effective.
New owner. Menu completely different
It is ridiculous that this takes $15.
The pancakes are very unpalatable, the skin is soft and thick, the chicken feet are tasteless, the meatballs are just frozen food, and they are cut in half and sold. Where is the conscience? If you open a restaurant and use dim sum, don’t feed the Chinese people shit, okay?
