Good mix of authentic & American Chinese food. The hot & spicy chicken is gas & I like the cafeteria atmosphere.

Authentic chinese food that’s on campus. I ordered the yangzhou fried rice which was delicious. It’s cheaper if you pay in cash (I paid like 9.5 ish cash) and they have free cold water and hot tea. It’s pretty spacious and overall a great placeAtmosphere wise, it’s definitely okay for a meal, but definitely not a place with good enough atmosphere to go on a date.Overall, really great place. I suggest coming here after a cbtf test (which is what I do)

颠沛流离
I ordered diced chicken with black bean sauce. Absolutely disgusting. The chicken was not only fried, but also very tough, and its texture very strange (it was "stringy"). It seemed like it was stored in a freezer for a very long time and then re-heated. The "black bean sauce" that was poured over the chicken was clear (it had no color), with only small, sparse remnants of black bean mixed in. The entire dish had a salty kind of flavor distributed all throughout, so I wasn't able to discern if the "sauce" had any of its own taste. In summary, the chicken didn't feel like chicken, and the sauce didn't feel like sauce -- definitely an odd dish. I had to throw most of it away. The only part that I enjoyed was the rice.

This is hands down the best small Chinese restaurant I've found in my life. I've only lived here about a year, and Ive had my go to spot, but I'm SO GLAD I tried Cravings tonight. The best Hot and Sour soup I've ever had, super authentic food, and the owners are really nice.I'll absolutely be back and bringing friends, lol.

Came here with a few Alumni and it was amazing even years later!
Good Chinese restaruant. Food is not too spicy or greasy. If you pay cash, you can usually get two big dishes and rice for 25-28 dollars. Enough amount for almost three adults. Most cusines I have tried are good. I reccommend shanghai style ribs, fried shrimps, mogolian beef, and bok choy. They also serve box lunch and free tea.

Great food! Atmosphere is alright, but when the food is good you do not care about how the place looks. Family owned. Free hot tea. Owner gifted me a dish the last day of my stay in Champaign-Urbana.

Great portions for a low price. I always get the hot bar combo and it still tastes fresh and crispy. The only thing is I wish the hot bar had labels so I don’t have to worry about
