I don't think I've ever come here and not been completely satisfied by whatever I ordered. This is…read morecoming from someone that has likely ordered nearly everything on the menu. My all time favorite is definitely the Spicy Chicken but I will eat anything here. The breading on the chicken is so light, yet crispy, yet covered in sauce...I'm not sure how they accomplish that. Everything has always been cooked to perfection, seasoned beautifully, plated nicely, and fresh. Service is always very friendly (sometimes a hair slow but only because there's usually only one server and the place is packed). Food comes out fairly quickly once you order and it's super fun to be able to watch them cook due to the giant glass wall in the kitchen. Place is always clean, has great lighting (you can actually see your plates), and the lot in back makes for fairly easy parking. We've been here twice close to closing and to watch them clean makes me know they take sanitation VERY seriously.

We got chicken wings, scallion pancake, pork and shrimp dumplings, and pork soup dumplings. The chicken wings had a mountain of fried garlic on top of them. We didn't prefer it, but garlic lovers would love this appetizer. The scallion pancake was solid--thin and crispy with scallions throughout. The pork and shrimp dumplings were our favorite, filled with ground pork, and whole pieces of shrimp, served with an awesome sauce that brought everything together. The soup dumplings were not that great. They looked like they were steamed a bit too long, and the soup had leaked through. Would not get these again.

My mom and I were craving jjamppong and jajangmyeon. We usually make the trip to K-Town, but while…read moresearching for restaurants, I came across this spot right here in the Valley and decided to give it a try. The restaurant is a cozy space with plenty of seating and a welcoming atmosphere. And the lady who served us was nice and even gave us more kimchi when she saw we were out. The jajangmyeon was good, but the jjamppong was the star of the meal, absolutely delicious! The broth was flavorful and satisfying, and it definitely hit the spot. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying some of their other dishes.

They also have a nice selection of different kinds of kimchi and frozen dumplings that you can take home. This time, I tried their new sweet and sour shrimp. It reminded me a little of honey walnut shrimp, and I really enjoyed it! The shrimp was flavorful and definitely something I would order again. There are still so many dishes on the menu that I want to try, so I'll definitely be coming back soon. If you're looking for authentic Korean food with a good variety of dishes, this place is worth checking out!

My partner got the Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, which was flavorful and comforting. We both grabbed sodas with our meals, and I appreciated that they had Sunkist. You don't see that at many places, and I love a good orange soda. The portions were generous, everything was fresh, and the flavors delivered. Service was great, too. The person at the front was super attentive, and I liked the mobile ordering station near the register. For anyone searching this spot on Yelp, just a heads-up that it's located inside the Northridge Mall. It's definitely worth checking out if you're craving some good noodles and dumplings. I'll for sure be back.

Very honest opinion: Not sure if I'm eating the same food as everyone else leaving reviews here,…read morebut I got the signature beef (Lanzhou) noodle soup combo and it was incredibly disappointing~mediocre. Server guy was chill. The food is served in a paper bowl, unlike the nice bowls you see in their pics. Tl;dr: if you're curious, don't waste your time, bafang is open 5min away Preface: I KNOW it's mall food, but for a restaurant that continuously pops up as #1 on Yelp whenever I search for food around the northridge/chatsworth area, I'm going to treat it as if it were a #1 spot. Beef noodle soup: to be very blunt, this was quite flavorless. The beef was dry as bones and looked like it was sliced with a mandoline. The noodles seemed undercooked and it felt like I was eating al dente spaghetti noodles. I got a medium spice level which didn't even seem that spicy, just a lot of cough inducing chili oil with no burn. Pan fried dumplings were ok. It honestly tasted like it was deep fried and not pan fried. Unsweetened black tea: hands down the best of the 3 things in the combo, which is quite telling. Honestly you get a decent amount of food for $15. But to constantly take the top 5 for recommended on Yelp in this area and waste my time to even look at it, it definitely doesn't belong remotely close to top 10.

And to all the Chinese restaurants across LA, please take notes on how orange chicken is suppose to taste and its texture - this restaurants orange chicken is so freakin good.

I even drove a bit out of my way to come here, only to find a "closed" sign on the door. I truly hope everything is okay with the owners and staff, but it was disappointing that there wasn't any notice or backup plan for unexpected closures. From what I could see through the window, the restaurant looked very clean and well-kept. I'll definitely want to try again another time but will certainly call first!!!!

It is not Frankensteins intention to be negative here today. But wholly Yelp hype Batman! Yes,…read moreFrankenstein can buy into a good hype every so often which the Bride of Frankenstein enjoys pointing out. Especially when Frankenstein is wrong. Frankenstein enjoys braised beef noodle soup. A lot. Frankenstein's heart was yanked out of his huge body and crushed when Mandarin Deli went out of business during Covid. A pain he still feels even today. They had the best Braised Beef Noodle Soup ever! Frankenstein went hook, line, and sinker when he read the Yelp hype about this place. Bottom line, nice people, not as awesome as was described. Braised Beef Noodle Soup- Sorry Noodles Kitchen but it's too chili hot. About a 8.5 to 9 on Frankensteins too hot scale. Beef was okay, not great. Noodles were good. Bride of Frankenstein had one taste and pushed it away. "Mucho Caliente" Orange Chicken, fine. Let's not go overboard everyone. Pan Fried Dumplings, good. Check it out for yourself. 10/11/2025 Update- It saddens Frankenstein to see so many fake reviews over and over again. Really Noodles Kitchen? Please.
