Pines Reviews
As a second year student, Pines is one of the more chillaxed dining hall with the best comfort food. I always go for hEAT and order 1) chicken fried rice, 2) Korean pork yum yum bowl, 3) oyakodon chicken, or 4) mapo tofu noodle (not pictured). Toasted is good too, but since this dining hall is at the center of Muir, there’s easy access to a market. Nothing out of this world, but its reliable selection makes it the ideal cafeteria.
A lot of tasty food, but very unfriendly to vegan and people with allergy. None of the food have individual labels. Some stations have a screen showing the food items names and allergy labels, BUT the list is not updated and not accurate. For example, They write that they have vegan eggs ans tofu scramble but they actually don’t. None of the desserts have allergy labels — I ask a few staff but they also don’t know.

Food is good but service can get really overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Pines is in the middle of campus so a lot of people go there. Most times is easier to order well in advance.Vegetarian options: Not too many but there's at least a small variety
