Samovar — Restaurant in College Park

Subpar to okay ramen. Brisket is dry and tasteless from overcooking, which could easily be remedied if they boiled it fresh to order like they do with the ramen. Other meat toppings look to be the same from being precooked (& overcooked). Fresh veggie toppings otherwise okay. In a medium bowl, noodles tend to congeal together into one lump that's hard to pick apart. Bubble tea is made with either powders or syrups, good for basic simple teas. Workers have little to no experience with the online order system. Has a few international condiments like wasabi mayonnaise but which most eaters most likely won't add to their food. Comes from being in the international studies building. Overall, good place for bubble teas and studying, only good for nonpicky ramen eaters or those favoring convenience foods and using your dining dollars over...

This is a small and quiet cafe that happens to offer some decent ramen. The cafe is located in the lobby of the newly renovated H.J. Patterson building, where the office of international study is located at. The dining space is bright and open, with a refreshing sense of modernism.

Their ramen is not too bad, compared to the rest of the places on campus. They prepare the ramen on spot, with vegetable / chicken broth, various types of meat and vegetable. It taste slightly more salty than my liking, but it will definitely satisfy your ramen craving.

They also offer other stuff typical for a cafe, coffee,...

Great place to chill in between classes! This is the only place on campus to get specialty coffee and tea! They also have boba, which is nowhere else on campus. There are also vegetarian meals, ramen, and bakery sweets. Additionally, free tea samples! The space to order is pretty cramped and the seating area is usually busy, but the atmosphere is bright and welcoming. The prices get pretty steep but the coffee is worth it. The steal in terms of food is the falafel wrap. It was under $4, was pretty dry, but tasted good enough with the tahini sauce....
