    Great food, great service from a very hard working family. A little pricey, but worth it!

    Very good authentic Chinese food. Reasonable prices and huge servings. Usually ready in 10 minutes unless extremely busy.

    A solid option if you're looking for a less busy Chinese restaurant near campus with spacious…read morecomfortable seating, full sit-in service, and a fairly varied menu with good prices and generous portions. If this restaurant were located in most cities in Illinois, it would be one of the nicest and best restaurants around. The competition around Champaign Urbana for Chinese food is very high however, and this one is a little less refined for flavors and textures than some of the popular spots around campus. With that said however, the food is still highly enjoyable and the more authentic dishes are considerably better than the Americanized options. For example, the cumin beef has a nice tender texture with good sear and flavor coming from the onion and mix of spices. The orange beef also has a nice citrus flavor and tender beef that's not overly sweet. The pineapple sweet and sour pork was passable, but not really as sweet or crunchy as expected. The egg rolls were done very well, similar to how my grandpa prepared them. Overall, this is a delicious spot for Chinese food with plenty of parking and much more relaxed dining. Food is good here, but for me just a little less refined than the best options available.

    Great place for family style meals for big groups! We made a reservation for a party of 7!…read more The food was delicious, we got 7 dishes to share and it was plenty of food! My favorites were the cumin lamb, dry pot chicken, and the rice noodle with beef. The lamb was perfectly seasoned and not gamey at all (coming from someone who doesn't usually like lamb). The beef in the rice noodles were so tender and a group favorite. The egg drop soup serving was massive, enough for everyone to get two small bowls. I was most disappointed by the twice cook pork, it was extremely dry. The rice was also quite dry as well. Overall a place I would love to visit again!

Northern Cuisine is popular with the Asian students because they're most of the people eating in there. Basically it shows it's good enough for them so it's good enough for everyone. The prices are pretty okay for portions. Came in and looked at the menu. It's certainly a big one. There's tons of meaty and plant friendly options to get and they get spicy. Felt like feeling a burn. It's about $15 for an entree which is okay because you get a lot. Also has more authentic options that get even crazier. I got the Mapo Tofu. A great thing is it's not a recipe that uses pork. This is soft tofu with a spicy ass sauce. Could have used a few vegetables in it. This was still pretty good though. Have to say it looking for authentic Chinese to come here. It's located on Green in the middle of the campus bars and restaurants. There's a few things for vegetarians.

    Upscale dim sum, served without pretense. This is a place for dumplings in a comforting atmosphere…read more We ordered the pork soup dumplings, mixed mushroom dumplings, and fried pumpkin balls. The mushrooms were delicious with a slight woody flavor, served in a gelatinous rice dumpling. The soup dumplings were served in tins, rather than directly on paper in the steamer, and there were no spoons. It certainly reduces the risk of the dumpling tearing, which happened with a mushroom one. The broth, pork, and casing were all simply prepared. The pumpkin balls ended up being the highlight of the meal. They came out hot with a crispy exterior to the sweet batter that was soft just under the shell that formed. (We should have given it another minute on the table to let the outside cool and the custard center more time to warm up.) The decor reflects the restaurant's consciously familiar approach. The general design resembles Chinese-American restaurants of the 70s and 80s, with pictures of temples on wall hangings and actual 80s style chairs at each table. But in 2025, the chairs read as delightfully retro and the hangings lend an airiness and light to the whole space. And the price is right. An order of soup dumplings could be a whole meal for $12.
