Had a dinner with Shine
Nothing great could be worse, pretty “dece” as Stanford students say
Love the AUTHENTIC Chinese food here 😍😍😍
The chefs are amazing. They take student feedback seriously. The specials are the best out of all the dining halls.
The best school dining hall in Stanford, at least in my opinion. While they serve the usual salad bars, pastas, and burgers, they also have many Asian-fusion style dishes. A dining that serves pho every day.
Typical college dining hall, but with fresh ingredients. Menus vary daily. Allergy-conscious, but ymmv. Stanford affiliation not required to dine here weekday lunches and weekends. Stanford undergrads only weekday dinners.
One of the best dining halls on Stanford campus, especially if you are into Asian food. They have regula Pho and Ramen bars, and fairly authentic Chinese dishes.
One of the best dining halls on campus, especially when they have specials. Lines can get really long though, up to 25 minute wait sometimes
Best dining hall for Asian food, no doubt. Don't miss the Pho they serve at lunchtime!
Has delicious food with more Asian selections. The broth for pho is excellent.

rly nice employees, rly annoying frosh, pho is ok but not served for dinner
There is cool food like ice cream sometimes, but usually all the meat is baked chicken, but at breakfast there are great sausages, but breakfast is too early before 9:00 AM.
Not only did we eat here once but twice. Both times food was great. You really do need to have the balls. Desserts were great too.
Not as nice as-, but sometime they have larger selection-than Arrillaga dining hall. No restrooms on site which can be a problems when coming in with kids.
It is the best place to eat healthy and delicious Asian food inside campus. The atmosphere is really nice and the staff attends the students really well.

Food is fairly reliable, but the workers often miss stuff; empty coffee pots, no silverware, etc.

Worst dining hall on campus. Avoid at all costs. Staff is rude (mostly) and food is gross. Plates often are filthy, and the food is often left unfilled for long periods.
Ruined my day. I swiped my card just one minute ago, and came back to grab a glass of water. But the staff doesn’t recognize me and asked loudly for my ID card... terrible experience
Used to be great before COVID, until they got rid of the omelette line with Adrian (which was the best part) and the make-your-own-smoothie bar. None of the workers there speak English; I don't mean they speak it as a second language, they don't know the words for "knife" or "cup" and will just respond in Spanish, which makes it really hard to communicate if something runs out. They have huge, elaborate, in-your-face displays for Chinese New Year and Pride Month, okay great, but nothing for Memorial Day. Disappointing and has gone almost more downhill than SF, needs new management.
Scam. No good specials each time I’ve gone there even though some liar said there are. Also the times there are specials, the line is unreasonably long. Logistics need much more improvement too. 0/10 worst dining hall on campus.
The third ingredient in everything is sugar.
