most delicious food I've ever eaten, 10/10

Best mac and cheese ever

Will you stopped here and went to the sandwich place in there. There was only one guy working at the time because right before you decided on this place, 3 other workers went on their break. We're literally watched them leave this guy by himself. He was super slow. Also when they came back, one of the chicks ran to the bathroom, well I happen to be in there, she does not wash her hands, so I won't be returning to that establishment. Another part of my family ate Panda, my son regularly eats the panda there, has only complaint is that you can't get half chow mein half rice because you are working with a machine and they did not put that as an option.

Jones food can solve my Analysis proofs for me.

Incredible service, and delicious food. Max would be proud. Would dine again, 5/5.

One of the best arrangements for the Texas State University students. We can buy our lunch from here, either to dine-in or for a takeout. The pricing is reasonable. My favorite is the Panda. They have really great chickens. The place is tidy, organized and half-empty most of the time during COVID, so the 50% full dining place is a safe choice for getting your food. Best wishes to the entity.

Fruteria is awesome! I ordered the vegan burger and was worried that it was the non-vegan version, and they were not only understanding, but willing to have the chef take a look to ease my concerns :) Lovely people and an awesome burger.

Great dining experience. Panda is one of the best restaurants in there. Staff is very helpful and the sitting area is very spacious. Whether you want to have a lunch quietly by yourself or hangout with friends, you got everything! Recently, I've also tried Wing It, and it didn't disappoint me either. The 5 combo is excellent and it consists of 3 big chicken pieces with loads of potato wedges. Jones Dining Center is super friendly for students and you can study while having your food!
