Xinbailu Restaurant — Restaurant in Hangzhou City

Upon arrival you are guided to your table like an airplane going to its airport gate. People direct you down hallways by pointing and then to a booth and table. The preferred way to order is to download their app from the barcode on the table, select your food, and place the order. If you can't figure that out they'll bring an order sheet and walk you through it. Very helpful. There must be a hundred people working at this place delivering food, answering questions and cleaning up. Quite hectic. ||When hot and humid outside, that's what the inside of the restaurant will be like. No AC to cool you down, at least none we could feel. Food preparation is Hangzhou style. Most was good, some very good and some really odd from Western standards. One dish we had was chicken chopped up and stir fried with peppers and veggies. However they chopped up the whole chicken, bones and all. It made eating it all but impossible. If you order beer you have to specify cold or warm like most restaurants. Even then it's a toss up what you'll get. ||The restaurant is located on a busy walkway in a shopping district so lots of traffic and people. The food is decent enough so ok to try this place, just make sure you know what you're...

Decently priced and a good quality food.

After being disappointed with the quality of food at wai-po jia (grandma's kitchen), I thought this place was a lot better, both service and taste wise. I went alone at an early dinner time, and because I couldn't Chinese that much, they brought me an English menu, and took time to help me choose the menu even when they were busy. The food tasted amazing, especially the dong-po rou (marinated pork belly). It was a memorable restaurant, so I came back again in two days with new friends I made, and they also loved it.

Strongly...
