South China is probably the highest quality, but Beijing Hut is the cheapest.

If you're willing to venture away from campus a bit, there is a place called Rouge River downtown (on James I think?) that's really good too. It's Sichuanese and Beijing style food. Mostly ultra spicy, if you're into that sort of thing.

There's Mandarin on Upper James and it's pretty good. However, it's not close by, but you could try it if you want. I would suggest to go there with a friend(s).

Really, Mandarin? Come on now.

I second South China. I've been really happy with their food. Dragon Court and Empress Wok are pretty good too.

I've tried mandarin a few times. It's ok i guess... for an asian at least. For non asians I guess it's great cause you can try so many things at once. Although it's so expensive and not that worth it these days. Also I see way too many ppl just go for crab legs >>
