ask for the North China tofu (not on the menu), it is so good! we also love the cashew tofu and veggie fried rice without ice. the staff is super friendly, and the tofu is delicious crispy. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about North China:
I assumed it was going to be good food based on the reviews... boy was I wrong. Had to be some of the worst tasting Chinese food I 've had. Egg foo young was very doughy and the Mongolian Beef didn 't taste like any Mongolian Beef I 've had before. Super disappointed View all feedback.
