    Crab w/Pork Xiao Long Bao
    Yvette M.

    We had such a delicious meal! Located in a busy strip mall, we arrived at 7pm on a Sunday just before it got crowded. We ordered so much food. Our server was friendly and informative. The food arrived one dish at a time, but fairly fast. Service throughout the meal was minimal, bit it did not take away from our dining experience. Every dish we ordered, in exception of the Hot Oil Pork with Vegetable Wonton, was plentiful and delicious. We tried the following dishes: -Popcorn Chicken 5/5, large portion and perfectly fried. -Crab with Pork Xiao Long Bao 5/5 -Beef Roll 4/5 -Pan Fried Shrimp Pork w/Vegetable Wonton 5/5 -Hot Oil Pork with Vegetable Wonton 2/5, Way too spicy. -Shrimp Fried Rice 5/5, shrimp was perfectly cooked. -Braised Beef Noodle 5/5, amazingly good! Overall, we'll be back! It is a small spot, that's busy and tight on space, but so worth a visit.

    I had a wonderful meal at Mr Dragon Noodle House. It's located in a plaza surrounded by other restaurants and stores, and there's plenty of parking spaces in the lot. The popcorn chicken is a must - the portion was huge and the mild flavor was top notch. The beef noodle soup was also solid. It came with a generous amount of noodles and big chunks of flavorful beef. Lastly, the regular soup dumplings pass exceptionally well with the ginger, vinegar, soy sauce condiment. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive. Atmosphere inside was hip and vibey. Overall, this is a great restaurant and I'd highly recommend others to try their dishes.

    My husband and I were in the area and decided to give this place a try. It was packed! The shopping center parking lot was completely full, so we ended up parking on a nearby residential street and walking over. We ordered the Sichuan-style beef noodle soup, pork and leek pan-fried dumplings, pan-fried pork bao, and the beef roll. Everything came out quickly and was really tasty. The place has a cozy, trendy vibe, and while it's a little pricey, we left happy and felt it was worth the wait. We'd definitely come back if we're in the area again.

    My first visit to Mr. Dragon Noodle House. I stopped by for dinner on a Saturday night. This place is busy. As soon as I walked in, a waiter handed me a menu along with an order slip to fill out while I waited for a table. That sure made the service feel less personal than I'd prefer. Every table was full, people were waiting near the entrance for seats, and the energy inside was loud and lively. These days, I'm more of a quiet-corner kind of diner. Unfortunately, I didn't find my usual quiet corner this time, but I managed to find a corner, and that was good enough. My dinner. Hot Tea ($2.00) Xiao Long Bao (8) ($13.00) The dumplings arrived steaming hot filled with juicy pork and flavorful broth. My favorite part of the meal besides the tea. Spicy Beef Ramen ($16.00) Large chunks of beef sat in a rich, vibrant red broth alongside ramen noodles, vegetables, and a hard-boiled egg. The beef was not as tender as it looked. The broth was too spicy for my liking. I do not recommend. Total: $41.02, including tax and a $7.00 tip. Overall, the food was okay, and the service sure needs improvement.

    Talk about huge portions! The fruit tea was massive, I shared it and still had a full cup to take home! And for the price it was really great deal. We got popcorn chicken, beef noodle soup, and the fujian vermicelli noodles. All of them were big portions as well. I really enjoyed the popcorn chicken and the beef noodle soup, the vermicelli noodles could've been more flavorful but had a ton of seafood, also wish the shrimp was peeled like the other dishes w shrimps. But overall really great spot, food comes out fast and the service was good. Parking is kinda tight. :D

    Let's start with the service, it's quick and efficient. Tables move fairly quickly. Takes minimal time to get drinks and dishes out to tables. The food is priced great and quality is high. Can get a lil noisy but it's a vibe ;) parking can be a shit show, but cars move in and out regularly. Definitely keep coming back for the food.

    Just wow! The spicy braised beef noodle soup was sooooooo good! It was pretty early so I was even debating ordering something so heavy, but wow I'm glad I did! They have huge portions and the spice level is perfect. The meat was falling apart and I was easily able to use my chopsticks to break it apart. The service was good, they were in there to get food out, not chit chat and socialize. They weren't rude at all just not a hospitality staff lolll. Cute place too? they had a good amount of seating and got the food out quick. The potstickers were just okay for me though, I felt like it lacked flavor except for in the one bite you got the juicy broth too. Just needed more salt but the texture and bite with salt were great.

    Pan fried buns
    Melissa H.

    We went to Mr. Dragon Noodle House for dinner and we ordered: - the beef noodle soup (e2) - the pan-fried buns - the dan dan noodles - the rice cake Overall, it was a really solid meal, and we were happy that we went, but we didn't love the pan-fried buns or the dan dan noodles. The beef noodle soup was absolutely the highlight! I honestly wish we ordered three of these. We will absolutely be coming back. The service was really good. They had folks sweeping and cleaning the entire time, and whenever we needed somebody to help, they immediately came over. We also had a lot of questions about the menu, and they were super helpful there too.

    Beef roll
    Kevin T.

    My partner introduced me to this spot and I was quite surprised by how busy it was on a afternoon weekend. We were seated immediately and orders were taken quickly which is a nice plus. There's plenty of tables inside that can seat all amounts of diners, although it does feel a bit cramped. Parking - Free in a outdoor lot, plentiful but fills up extremely quickly. Street parking is pretty much nonexistent here unless you park in nearby residential streets. Their menu is pretty extensive that ranges from baos, apps like popcorn chicken, to their signature noodles soups, ramen, rice noodles, and even shareable entrees. Service here is very quick. They seem to have tons of staff that walks in and out of the area, many of the staff when they're idle are facing towards the customer on standby, so they're pretty attentive. My partner and I both ordered a bowl of the House Special Beef Noodle Soup which is what their mainly known for. Order came out really quick and presentation is pretty standard. I loved the portions that they provide, 3-5 beef pieces, and they're HUGE, it's well cooked, and melts off easily with each bite. Noodles are delicious as well and it's mixed with a broth that's not too salty. 10/10, would recommend. We also ordered a beef roll to share, was tasty but it wasn't anything special. It's a savory dish and it's very much a shareable one. 7/10 A decent noodle restaurant in SGV, can be a bit congested both inside and with parking, but decent quality food makes up for it.

    Xiao long bao
    Jon A.

    Not bad, not bad!! Truly was a surprise tbh. We were in the SGV area so wanted to eat something tasty and found this on Yelp. A great find indeed! Couldn't find the spot at first in the plaza but it is located near a McDonald's. Looked big from outside but was a decent size inside with a good amount of tables and seating space. Service was really fast, got seated quick and they were fast to take our orders which was crazy at first but they were on it with service so I appreciated that. Even the food came out pretty fast. Saw that the Beef Noodle Soup was good so I had to try it, the beef broth was delicious and I love bok choy so they had me at bok choy! Beef was nicely cooked too, I liked it! Dan Dan noodles were okay and it felt like it was spicy peanut butter but still good, just not my favorite. But the pork dumplings (xiao long bao) was YUMMY. It really hit the spot when we grabbed one each and the warmth and taste was delicious. Definitely my favorite! Pork and crab dumplings were good too! I was just too full at that point to have more of it all. I'd say this place satisfied my hunger and I left there super full so I'll comeback again :)

    Pork version is better than the crab
    Tyler J.

    First time here with a group on a Saturday afternoon. Service was prompt but parking was sparse. Pork soup dumplings - Solid flavor and thin skin. I would definitely recommend. Crab/pork soup dumplings: I still prefer the pork version but same good quality as above Beef rolls - Good portion of meat and balanced flavor with the outside very crispy for nice texture balance. Wish they had cucumber inside though. Popcorn chicken - ordered it with no spice but chili powder on the side. I enjoyed this very much! Light, crispy and flavorful. Bonus for coming with fried basil, which is harder to come by. Beef/tendon noodle soup - bouncy noodles and good tendon but the flavor was not rich. Spicy beef noodle soup (2 chilis on the menu) - Better than the one above but definitely sweat inducing. Pan fried bao: Decent option, but I prefer the ones at Shau May hands down.

    Ashley V.

    Decent price and fast service. Decor on the wall also added a nice touch to the ambiance. It's quite similar to din tai fung, but still can't beat the taste of the chili wontons and the choco XLB from din tai fung. Averaging around $10-$15 for all the dishes pictured, which isn't too bad for the quantity given. I really liked their popcorn chicken, crab with pork xiao long bao, and the pork potstickers! Overall, it's a great restaurant to share appetizers and entrees with family. We ended up taking our leftovers home for dinner, and all the food still tasted great! I do wish they had a dessert menu, which would top off the meal.

    Dana T.

    Missing this place already The service here is quick and the food is amazing. The dan dan noodles were sooo saucy and the peanut/spicy sauce was just perfection. I would love if they added extra green onions (maybe i can ask next time haha) The popcorn chicken was also such a great shareable item. They give a pretty big portion and the dish is very reminiscent of older boba shop's popcorn chicken. The spicy wontons had a nice kick and great flavor. I really liked the pan fried baos as well and they are juicyyy!

My sisters-in-law who live in the area highly recommended this spot when we were deciding on a Sunday dinner the night before we flew out. Among the four of us, we ordered: - Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) - Biang Biang Noodles: least numbing of the noodle dishes we ordered. If you LOVE carbs and not a lot of sauce, this one's for you! - Dandan noodles: this thin noodle dish is slightly more numbing than the Biang Biang noodles, but still bearable and tasty. - Chongqing Special Noodles: most numbing of the three! I had to pause eating this a few times as it was getting a little uncomfy! The noodles are side but thinner than the Biang Biang noodles. I liked that we ordered noodle dishes each with different noodle types, flavors, and spice levels. The Biang Biang noodles were respite from the Chongqing Special Noodles, while the Dandan noodles had the right amount of peanut flavor and "mala." We arrived 45 minutes before closing on a Sunday night (it was a holiday the next day though). We were surprised that there was still a line of people wait in for seats close to closing time! Thinking we weren't going to be seated, we decided to order for takeout. We ended up being the last party to be seated! The staff was kind to transfer our takeout orders as dine-in dishes! The staff had the right amount of customer service and attentiveness for a Chinese restaurant, if you know what I mean haha.

The prices are very reasonable for the quality, and the portions are generous. Highly recommended if looking for authentic, satisfying noodles!

For appetizers we ordered the Takoyaki, chicken karage and our main dishes Deluxe Tsukemen x3. The Break down: Atmosphere: 4/5 They greet you as you walk in, which I sets the vibe. You're welcomed into a cozy apace that has some decorative elements even to the music choice. Reminds me of our trip to japan, which I MISS SO MUCH! The Food Takoyaki: $8.95. 4/5 Stars. - Comes in 5pcs with sauce and bonito flakes. I liked how the outside was a bit crunchy and inside was fluffy! Karage: $8.95. 5/5 Stars - Comes in 5pcs. The sauce was tangy sweet kind of like teriyaki sauce. It was crispy but still so juicy and soft. HANDS DOWN GET THIS! Loved it so much I could have a whole bowl Tsukemen: $22.45. 5/5Stars - If you aren't familiar with this, the broth is separate from the noodles. Its a different way of experiencing noodles. The broth is thick, creamy and flavor profile is on point. Inside of the broth there is mushrooms and pcs of pork. The noodles are cooked perfectly and also comes with pcs of nori, soft boiled jammy eggs and 4 pcs of thick chashu. Portion size lets just say they are generous and we all can EAT ^^, Kakigori (MATCHA) $8/$14. 5/5 Stars - Definite MUST! Its made with Japanese shaved ice, a very creamy soft cream matcha sauce and matcha powder! I cant tell you how good this dessert is. The wife is obsessed and one if the main reasons why we found this spot in the first place. Please try! Service: - Super friendly staff! They are quick to get our order and serve our meal. I asked for more limes for my noodles 2x and both times they were quick. Made us feel very welcomed and checked in on us on a regular, which also reminded us of the service Japan showed us once upon a time. Overall: We love this place and we keep coming back with new people to share this type of noodle experience. Check them out im sure you will enjoy it. Lets just say we drove an hour to eat this. You def will not be disappointed :)

The…read moreother two ordered tsukemen ($26.50 for the spicy deluxe and $23.50 for the spicy chasu) and found it very salty because they chose to consume it not by dipping the noodles in the bowl of broth, but rather by pouring all the broth from the bowl into the noodles, trying to recreate a normal bowl of ramen. I can't speak for them, but I will say, if you order the tsukemen and find that you want more dipping broth, that will be an extra charge. Order a regular bowl of ramen if you do not plan to dip the brothless noodles into the broth for each bite. BF and I both tried the spicy tuna bowl ($7.95), chashu bowl ($8.95), and tonkotsu ramen ($15.95). The bowls are a little smaller than the ramen bowls and are a great option if you want a light meal without feeling super full. The tonkotsu ramen had a slightly rich broth that was flavorful and a decent portion of noodles. We opted not to order the ramen with the egg since we were also trying the rice bowls. The three items were more than enough for the two of us and a good variety of food. Parking here is horrible at the street level, so head downstairs for the two levels of underground parking.

I liked the crunchy texture of the bread for the Chinese burger. It's on the spicier side. The braised beef noodle soup and sautéed vegetables were my favorite. The xiao long bao wasn't soupy but the dipping sauce they give is very good. Staff is very nice. There are quite a few tables for indoor seating.

    Hidden Gem in Alhambra - Finally Tried It After 4 Years of Driving By!…read more I've lived in Alhambra for the last 4 years and drove past this place almost every day, always assuming it was just another hot pot spot. It never looked super busy, so I kept putting it off. Big mistake--don't let that happen to you like it did to me! We finally went in and ordered a bunch: the Spicy Beef Shank Rice Noodle, Rattan Pepper Sliced Beef Rice Noodle, Popcorn Chicken, Sesame Balls, Popping Brown Sugar Rice Cake, Fried Milk Rolls, and Fried Taro Balls. Everything was outstanding. The noodles were amazing--fresh, chewy, with high-quality ingredients you can really taste in every bite. The broths had that perfect spicy kick without being overwhelming, and the beef was super tender. My wife and I couldn't stop eating; literally everything we tried was delicious. She especially loved the Fried Taro Balls--they were crispy outside, soft and flavorful inside. The sides/snacks were all hits too: the Popcorn Chicken was perfectly seasoned and crispy, the Sesame Balls and Popping Brown Sugar Rice Cake brought great texture and sweetness, and the Fried Milk Rolls were a fun surprise. Service was top-notch--shoutout to Icey, who took such great care of us. One of the best and most attentive experiences we've had in a while. If you're in Alhambra and love good food, do yourself a favor and stop in. You won't go wrong here--highly recommend! 5 stars all the way.

    Was craving rice noodles so decided to give this place a try as it's been on my radar. I think it…read morewas okay, but not as amazing as I expected. Menu option is kind of limited. I went with the tomato and sliced beef for $14.99. This came with bean sprouts, which I wasn't aware of, and there was a lot of bean sprouts inside - almost as much as there was rice noodle. Not a fan of bean sprouts but will eat if I need to, but in this case - it totally overwhelmed the dish. There also wasn't enough rice noodle for me. Everything else was good, but that kinda blew it for me. Also got the spicy soup with beef and tomatoes. This is more of a gentle burn in spice they slowly works its way up. It's good if you like spice. Restaurant wasn't too busy when we arrived but got a good amount of customers by the time we were leaving. Workers are friendly. Not sure if I'd be back though. Lots of street parking or a small lot to the side.

    I came with a girlfriend who has eaten here several times with another friend. The restaurant has…read moreboth ready to go takeout for, and there is a dining area to sit down to have a nice fresh noodle meal. The restaurant was filled with families, or parties of one to two people. The menu was very good, there is a window looking into the kitchen, where you see a person making the hand pulled noodles. It was just as fun seeing the guy hand pull noodles as watching the people making fresh noodles at the restaurant near Nordstroms at the Westfield Mall in Arcadia. The weather was hot, so we opted for cold noodles, ordering the Shanghainese style noodles with chili sauce, and the Dan Dan noodles with sliced cucumbers. Two of us shared the two separate bowls of noodles, they were both very tasty. We used the vinegar in the bottle on the table to add more zest in the noodles. Parking is rather difficult, but there was no waiting for a table. We had initially put our names down for our favorite restaurant across the street, P P Pop Restaurant, which had an over half-an-hour wait time. My friend already had an appointment somewhere in an hour, so we hastily went to the Northern Cafe. It is currently a new restaurant under new management, the staff are nice, but were very busy. The fresh noodles had a nice and bouncy texture, you could tell that the noodles were made the same day. The sauces were quite delicious, I liked the Sichuan noodles sauce, but my friend said they were too spicy for her. The Dan Dan noodles were just right, and both bowls were devoured in no time. We definitely will come here again to try out the other dishes!

    THISSS particular Northern Cafe continues to reign supreme. I will say that their chef has changed…read more(RIP old wonton soup), but this place is still exceptionally delicious. They make all their noodles fresh. You can see it through that big ol window. Everyone who works here continues to be soooo nice. The food is delicious, and it's an efficient place to grab noodles. I've come here with a party of seven, and the service was fast! They added a lot more seating and continue to be a busy establishment. There's never a wait for tables though, so this is a fantastic place to eat!!!
