I prefer supporting the mom and pops over corporates so I'll take this place over Panda, super friendly folks cooking good food at reasonable prices. There are a few tables but most take their meals to go. Combos meals are cooked up fresh foryou in the evenings even if its 5 minutes till closing.

We were craving Chinese food and North China had great reviews. The restaurant was very busy, but we didn't have to wait for a table. It's a typical Chinese restaurant with lots of red in their decor, modest furniture and Teresa Teng as background music. The servers were fast, the food portions were huge and quality wise it was OK.

This place is perfect for santa maria. The portions are good the price is good and the food is tasty. It reminds me of little shops in L.A. They were very busy when i visited so plan ahead.

Visit was about 11:30 and the place was pretty full. After they took my order, I had to wait for food to be prepared. The wait was for chow mein and something else that I did not order. When the chow mein came, they started filling orders previously placed. When they served a couple of people that came after me, I asked why my order was still waiting. He said the wait was for something that I had not ordered. I told him and then he filled another order from after me before filling mine. Food was OK but not the long and unnecessary wait.

If you want your stomach full then this is the place. The food was average in taste and texture at the buffet, which is the way I ordered as opposed to the menu. There was plenty of food to select from, but nothing special popped out as being unique. Service was good and attentive. I thought the buffet for what was being served was too expensive (just under $12.00), but there was ice cream to offset this. Unfortunately, the desserts were lacking with only three to choose from and they were not home made, but instead seemed to be purchased from a store.
