" Just want to leave a note that I always enjoy my visits to Northern Taste. The dishes they prepare are always cooked to perfection. However, their restaurant space could use a bit more charm—it's a bit basic. Nonetheless, the staff’s friendliness and the food’s authenticity keep me coming back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love Northern Taste after hearing so many great things, but my experience was a bit mixed. The staff was welcoming, but some of the more traditional dishes fell flat on flavor. The service was quick, but the food didn't fully meet my high expectations for authenticity. However, the portions were large, which was a nice surprise! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Northern Taste has been a delightful experience each time! Their service is quick, staff polite, and the food excellent. My favorites are the lamb skewers and the garlic fried shrimp. The portions are impressive and allow for hearty meals. My only critique is the lack of ambience which would really enhance the dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, so I may be addicted to Northern Taste's food! I can’t help myself, their spicy stir fry is simply divine. The chili chicken is always fresh and full of flavors that just dance on the tongue! When I have cravings for Northern Chinese cuisine, this is definitely my go-to. Plus, the prices are very reasonable for the quality you receive! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Northern Taste based on a friend's recommendation, and it was worth it! The authenticity of each dish shines. I had the Mongolian beef, which was wonderful, and my partner enjoyed the hotpot. It’s a great place for dinner with friends or family, as the portion sizes are more than generous. I can't wait to return again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Words cannot express how much I love Northern Taste! Every visit feels like a mini-vacation to China. The authenticity shines through in every dish. I especially love the lamb skewers and the the garlic fried pork—they are absolutely irresistible! The cozy atmosphere adds to the charm, making it one of my favorite places to unwind after a busy week. Trust me, you won't regret dining here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each visit to Northern Taste delights me! The staff are so attentive, and the food tastes so authentic. Portions are quite generous, which I appreciate. I'd say the cumin lamb and sweet and sour dishes are must-tries! While the decor isn't the most stylish, the homey feel complements the warm service. " (*Curated Review*)
