1. TIANYUANKUI

No.7 of Local Restaurants in Pingyao

£7Shanxi CuisineTime-honored Brand

M45***14Environment: The interior decoration is antique, wooden, and colorful small lights outside, which attract many tourists to stop and take pictures at night. Service: The waiters are enthusiastic, uniform, and answer all questions. Taste: Pingyao beef, red meat, looks like braised beef, but lacks the soy sauce color and tendons. It is delicious with the store's unique old vinegar!

Helen"Xiao Shijie" Domestic Tour 📍 Shanxi [Service] In fact, I was in a very ordinary mood during the two days I played in Jinzhong, because there were too many tourists. Whether it was several courtyards or the ancient city, it was very noisy. Some staff members had bad service attitudes, which made people feel very irritated. I didn't expect that after having a dinner, I suddenly had a change. The service of this restaurant was really warm and thoughtful! Originally, everyone ate a lot of snacks before dinner and didn't have much appetite, so the four of us only ordered a double set meal, but the store didn't mind at all and said that it was best not to waste food. During the meal, not only did the waiter keep asking if the food was good, but the store manager (or the boss?) also greeted and sent oil tea to each table. The store was full on weekday nights. As the old saying goes, harmony brings wealth. With such thoughtful service, business is of course good, not to mention that the taste of the dishes is also very good. It's a pity that we stayed in the ancient city for too short a time and didn't find time to try more signature dishes. 【Taste】 |Pingyao beef^ is a dish you must try in the ancient city. The beef is very fresh and tender. It tastes really good with a little local vinegar. |Cold bowl bald^ is also a local specialty. It is made of buckwheat noodles and feels like jelly, cool and smooth. |Stomach-nourishing oil tea^ is free, but it tastes so good. When my family came to Pingyao for a trip, they brought oil tea back, but the taste was completely incomparable to this. It is really more delicious when it is homemade.

M42***73What impressed me most was their service attitude. There were so many people upstairs and downstairs, and I didn't feel the service staff were impatient at all, and they never neglected customers. The service was really great!

changgegeCtrip booked Yunjin City, thinking of the feeling of visiting the ancient city of Pingyao in Shanxi. There was a pick-up at the station, and the guys were very enthusiastic. When we arrived at the pedestrian street, there were waiters coming out to greet us. Because it was the off-season, the room was upgraded for free. Then we specifically asked for small pickles for breakfast. The lady was very enthusiastic and recommended the specialties, lacquerware and beef. We ate in the store before leaving. I must admit that it was the most delicious meal I had. I could also get a discount and each person was given a gift ~ Very satisfied! Must give a full five points praise!

徐徐霞客RrWhen traveling to Shanxi, you must try the local specialty noodles - Hele noodles. This restaurant has many Shanxi specialty dishes, and we recommend the aged vinegar beef, braised spareribs, and Hele noodles. Hele noodles are very chewy, with a good texture. Recommended

曹操The tomato pot is really great. I like it very much. I love hot pot the most and have basically eaten all the hot pot restaurants in Pingyao. The tomato pot in this hot pot restaurant is the best I have eaten so far. The shrimp paste cooked for the children is super favorite. The children ate a lot. The spicy pot is simply amazing. The more it is cooked, the more flavorful it is. The chili I like is super refreshing. I don’t like bean curd, so I ordered one for my companion. It tasted very crispy and chewy and delicious. The service attitude is also very good. Because I brought my baby, I kept paying attention to the baby sitting in the baby chair. The child couldn’t eat too much, so I also gave the child a piece of luncheon meat to eat. The fried crispy meat is a friend who loves meat, so he ate it all. It turned out to be very delicious. The environment is good and the air conditioning is on throughout the meal. After a meal, it was very comfortable!!!
