The store is quite big. You can go in on the first floor and scan the code to get your ticket. After getting the ticket, you can pick up the meal at the window. It is fast and convenient. One person ordered 4 dishes, a total of more than 30 yuan. They all tasted good. The potato chips were especially delicious. This store is worth a try.
15.5 Eat until you are full, eat until you pack up. It is worth it, the key is that the taste is OK👌Dandan noodles, in fact, sesame noodles, the sauce is super rich, the spicy feeling is very fragrant, the key is to fry the sesame first, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, challenging the taste buds~ The Haibi soda recommended by the local tour guide is a must. You can have it twice👍

Next to the Lijing Gate in the old city of Luoyang, next to the Lijing Gate city wall, we ordered Luoyang's water banquet, there are special dishes every day, four people spent more than 100 yuan, and the meal was very full. The taste is very good, all the dishes are sour and spicy.
It's delicious. You can't eat it anywhere else. I thought it was muddled noodles. [Taste] It's a bit challenging to the taste buds. The taxi driver is a local and said it's heavy, but it's okay. I was deeply impressed by the enthusiasm of Luoyang people and the delicious food.

The most satisfying meal in Luoyang, the first time I ate what Wu Lala recommended and it was not bad. The beef soup was super delicious. It was just served without salt, you can add it as needed. The price was different, 15 yuan a bowl, and it felt like the meat was not much. But it was very fragrant, and you could have unlimited refills after drinking it. Many aunties who lived nearby brought their own pots to fill it up. The shredded pancakes were average, but it was not bad to go to the next door to buy a crispy oil twist to go with it. If I didn't have to go back to the hotel to work after eating, I really wanted to sit and slowly refill a few bowls
If you come to Luoyang and don't drink a bowl of beef soup, you will be embarrassed to say that you have been to Luoyang. With the crazy recommendation of my friend, I came to the first beef soup restaurant on Longlin Road. I heard that it is very popular on weekdays. I arrived at 11:30 on Saturday noon, and there were not many people. Environment: I heard that this store has been open for more than 20 years. You know, it is an old store, so the requirements for hygiene and other things are not so high. Beef soup^ I ordered a 20 yuan beef soup. My friend said that his family has 8 yuan, but I didn't see it on the self-service machine. Maybe it was cancelled. It is recommended not to put chili oil. Although the chili oil is not spicy, it covers the taste of the beef soup. It tastes oily. You can put less. It tastes good when soaked in shredded pancakes. The meatballs are 6 for one yuan, and the crunchy teeth are okay. In general, it is okay. It is not so amazing, but it is not a thunder. It is quite anti-hunger. Those who like to drink beef soup can come and try it.

The gravy of cloud fungus steamed chicken is a little thick and tastes a bit salty. If it were thinner, it would be nice to be able to make rice out of it. The fish curd is very good. It is a Lingnan specialty and tastes great!
Luoyang is really not short of beautiful dating restaurants. . . This European-style restaurant in Luoyang! Really romantic🥂 The environment is also good📷The atmosphere is also very comfortable Believe me! No girl can refuse such romance. It is really suitable for couples to date and friends to have dinner together... As soon as you enter the door, you will see the magnificent style. Every corner is full of details. It is as romantic as in the movie. You can see that the boss has put in a lot of effort. There are also beautiful peonies at the door🌺 #Luoyang Food #Good Atmosphere Restaurant #Western Atmosphere Restaurant #Luoyang #Luoyang Tourism #Dating Restaurant #Luoyang Dating #Treasure Restaurant Sharing #This Bite is a Romantic Assist

Luoyang's time-honored restaurant, the taste of the pot stickers has remained unchanged for decades, and they are authentic. There is a long queue every day for dine-in and take-out pot stickers. When friends from other places come to Luoyang, I always recommend them to taste it or take them there. After dinner, you can also walk around the area, which is in the West Industrial and Commercial Circle. The Emperor's Six-horse Driving Museum is also nearby.
Pot stickers, eat them while hot, otherwise they are a bit oily, the bottom is very crispy, with a lot of fillings, wontons, one bite at a time, the soup is delicious, siu mai, chewy, tastes very fragrant, eggplant casserole, soft and tender in the mouth, tastes super good

I thought it was difficult to taste authentic Jiangnan flavors in the north, but Yan Jiangnan was so amazing! As soon as I entered the restaurant, the antique Chinese decoration was integrated with Luoyang elements, with peony screens and blue brick floors, which were elegant and grand. The waiters were warm and polite, and they also introduced the characteristics of the dishes. The signature beggar chicken was fragrant as soon as it was served. The moment the mud shell was cracked, the sense of ritual was full. The chicken was tender and boneless, soaked in the fragrance of lotus leaves; the crab meat tofu was golden and attractive, with a rich crab aroma, and the tofu was smooth and tasty. The rice was enough to make two big bowls! The Suzhou-style smoked fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a mixture of sweet and salty, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it is. Even the stir-fried chicken with seasonal vegetables was cooked to perfection, crispy and refreshing! The dishes are exquisite and generous, and the price-performance ratio is super high.
Just kidding!! All the ladies visiting Luoyang should stay here! The experience is perfect 💯 and the price-performance ratio is incredibly high!!! ✔️Convenient transportation 🚌✔️Smart and affordable 💰✔️River view from your bed 🌆 📍Address: Old City District, Luoyang (Super close to all attractions!!) ✅Hotel location is amazing!

It is a restaurant for the general public, with cheap prices, large portions and good taste. It is quite down-to-earth. A small portion of stew is enough for two people. The other dishes are average in taste, but the stew is delicious!

This restaurant is really delicious, especially the service attitude is really good. Special praise for Ms. Huang's one-on-one explanation, which is very enthusiastic and the service is also very good! It is worthy of being a time-honored brand!
A must-eat in Luoyang: that Luoyang Water Banquet When you come to Luoyang, you must try that Luoyang Water Banquet. Although many people say it is unpalatable, as a local specialty, you must try it~ In the Lijingmen Scenic Area, the whole street feels like a food street. It is especially lively at night. This Xinghua Village restaurant should be considered a time-honored brand. There was no seat after 6 o'clock, so I went again after 8 o'clock and finally got a meal. Luoyang Water Banquet, if there are many people, you can directly order a whole set, but there are only 2 of us, so we can only order a single dish. Water Banquet has been passed down to this day. It is difficult to finish one dish and then serve the second one on the table, but another meaning of Water Banquet includes soup and water, which is really good. | Peony Bird's Nest^, as the top dish of Water Banquet, it is actually radish? It is said to be related to Wu Zetian. I really can't eat this. |Meat slices with soup^, this is my favorite, because it has meat, the soup has a peppery taste, super warm |Luoyang stew^, all kinds of stews feel |Jiaozuo meatballs^, the waiter poured the meatballs directly into the soup when it came to the table, and I couldn’t tell what kind of meatballs they were [laughing and crying] |Small bowl of soup^, it’s really not small, the portion is big |Honey sauce eight-treasure rice^, eight-treasure rice soaked in sweet soup, it’s also a very unique way of eating When you come to Luoyang, I suggest you try the water banquet, people who love soup will find it good

I am Uncle Ben, I am wandering in Luoyang. Everyone wants to eat the local food in Luoyang. This restaurant is a must-try for many people, but they will complain after going there. Environment: Very bad, in an old house, very small, you can sit at a shared table. Taste: I think it is acceptable, although it is not suitable for a Sichuanese. But the whole taste is normal. But it is really not hungry. Recommended small crispy meat. Service: General, no surprises or disappointments. I am Uncle Ben, a man who is kind and ecstatic even God thinks, and I say hello to you in Luoyang.
You still have to have a banquet when you come to Luoyang. With few people, we can't have a "banquet" with many bowls and plates, but you can still try a few special dishes. Originally, I planned to go to another restaurant with a higher ranking, but the hotel staff said that the locals still recognize this old restaurant, so I decided to choose this one. [Taste] The taste is better than the takeaway from the chain store the day before, but overall, traditional Luoyang cuisine may not be very appreciated by outsiders like us. The ingredients and methods are relatively simple. It's good to try it, but you won't miss it. | Peony Bird's Nest^ It's actually called "Luoyang Bird's Nest" on the menu. After Premier Zhou ate it, it was called "Peony Bird's Nest" because the chef added a carved peony on it. How can a small restaurant be so particular, so it should actually be called Luoyang Bird's Nest. Many people say "You can't tell the raw materials unless others say it", but in fact, the knife skills are really good, but the shredded radish is still easy to distinguish. | Even the soup meat slices^ The taste is the best among all the soups, you can order it to try. |Aohuo^It's like stewed meat without much starch. |Chao Bianduo^I was looking forward to it, but there was a lot left, and it didn't taste good. |Silver bar^It's a local specialty, the rhizome of the earth spirit. I recommend ordering it to try. It's refreshing, crisp and tender, and very good. |Chao Babao Rice^I love eating Babao Rice, but it becomes stickier after breaking it up and stir-frying. It's good. I recommend people who like sweets to use it as a staple food. [Environment] It's really a simple environment. It's in the alley in front of the old street. The car is parked in the parking lot on both sides of the main road outside. Don't drive in. [Service] I saw a lot of complaints before coming here, and I was nervous, but it's actually okay. It's quite polite and thoughtful, and I will answer any questions. The price of the dishes is very affordable, less than 120 for four people. And you can order small portions, try not to waste.

This is also a popular snack shop. The snacks are very affordable. It is located in a busy food street and is open late. I ordered mutton steamed buns, almond juice and rose pear tea, all of which tasted good. The almond tea is different from the one in Guangzhou. The texture is like lotus root powder. The bowl is large and has a lot of ingredients. The mutton patties are freshly made and very crispy and delicious.
Rose pear soup is pear soup, cooked with roses. It was a bit cold when riding a bike, but drinking a bowl of it to moisten the lungs in autumn is still very comfortable. Lamb steamed buns I thought it would be very oily, but it turned out to be crispy and fragrant after being fried. But I only ate two pieces and packed the rest. The price is cheap and the quantity is very large! Three dishes cost only 23 yuan. If I could eat more, I would also like to order the cake.
