Just discovered they serve breakfast, and if you like traditional Chinese breakfast, this place is worth trying. They offer a wide variety of options, and even during breakfast hours, you can still order lunch items. Their side dishes are very garlic-heavy, but interestingly, whenever these dishes show up at Chinese potlucks, they're always a crowd favorite. I like their noodles because you can choose between thin, thick, or knife-cut noodles, and the portions are huge. For women with a smaller appetite, one bowl could easily be enough for two people. The soup base is just average. Their fried noodles are pretty good, but for people who prefer lighter flavors, they can feel overly oily. As for the spicy noodles, to me they're more oily and numbing than pleasantly spicy -- not really my preferred style of heat. The plaza itself isn't very big, and parking is honestly one of the biggest frustrations. Traffic gets very congested, and during peak meal times, the parking lot can become completely gridlocked. The restaurant has a very casual, self-service style. You walk in and find your own seat, order by scanning a QR code, and there's a station with water and cups if you need them. Overall, a good spot if you're looking for generous portions, traditional Chinese breakfast options, and don't mind the parking situation. read more

Really enjoyed the handmade noodles here -- you can taste the freshness and the texture was great. The fried noodles were tasty, and the prices are very reasonable for the portion size. They also offer a good variety of appetizers, which is nice if you want to try a few different dishes. Service was quick and efficient, and the food came out fast. The ambience is pretty simple and casual, nothing special, which is probably why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, a solid spot for good noodles at a fair price. I would definitely come back again. read more

If you're craving Chinese food, Northern is pretty consistent. I usually get the Dan Dan noodles but I wanted to try something new this time. Everything was really good. I'm not sure if it's meant to be self serve(water/utensils) or if they're just rude but the service is typically iffy. Good and bad at times. They have plenty of seating but it could get packed at times. There's also plenty of parking in the plaza. read more

Actually pretty good. I got the house special beef noodle soup with the knife cut noodles. $14.50, but it was a really big bowl with a lot of food. Noodles had a nice texture and the soup was really flavorful. Add some of the chili they have on the table and it's a really good meal. Also got the beef onion pancake and Chinese pork sandwich. They were both just ok and were really oily. The beef onion pancake was a little too fried and not enough meat inside. There is a QR code on the table and you can order on your phone. It makes it pretty easy and convenient. The worker does bring you some water and your food and you have to go up and pay. Overall, it was around $70 for 3 big bowls of noodles and the beef pancake and pork sandwich. Actually not too bad and it was a lot of food. Menu has quite a lot of different noodles and different items to choose from. If I'm craving some decent Chinese food and noodles, I think I will give this place another shot. read more

Northern Cafe RH - A1. House Special Beef Noodle Soup - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

We visited Northern Cafe in Rowland Heights for lunch today. It's located on Colima Road and Jellick Ave. inside of the GW supermarket plaza. It's right next to the Sunmerry Bakery. Parking spaces are plenty but it can be packed during lunch hours because there are many businesses plus GW supermarket is there. We got there around 1:20 p.m. and the restaurant is spacious with modern decor and some wall art. We ordered the following items for our party of 5: - House Special Beef & Tendon Noodle Soup -Braised ox tail noodle soup -tomato beef noodle soup with fried egg -veggies cold dishes combo (3 items): we picked cucumber, tofu slices, and xue li hong (Chinese mustard greens) -beef rolls -juicy steamed pork dumplings (XLB) -shrimp & pork dumplings -scallion pancakes We liked the food overall, especially the braised ox tail noodle soup, beef rolls, and Xiao Long Bao. The portion of the noodle soup was huge (They gave us a lot of noodles). The noodle texture was good. The Braised Ox Tail Noodle Soup was flavorful and delicious. Xiao Long Bao was juicy and the skin was thin. Beef rolls were addictive (I just don't like cilantro -that's my preference so I took them out). For the veggies cold dishes combo, the portions were a bit small. Chinese mustard greens were kinda salty and they didn't give us much of the cucumber. Scallion pancakes could be better because they were a bit dry. The service was lacking because they didn't have enough servers. Overall, the noodle soup was decent and I would give it a 4 stars. read more

I don't know why there are so many low reviews. For a while they were doing pretty horrible, but I've been back two more times within the month and the food was fresh and delicious. It's not too greasy or heavy tasting. So if you prefer food that is more greasy and heavier in taste, this may not be the best place for you. Service was great. Staff were very kind and courteous. The Restaurant was clean and well maintained. You order on their app and can scan QR code on table. read more

Prices and portions were good! The spicy prime beef noodles were flavorful, spicy, and plenty of noodles. We got 3 of the cold sides: pig ears, black fungus, and bamboo, they were so good and gave us so much that we took our leftovers home. Will be back to try their other dishes! read more

came for the food, left for the service. For two days in a row, I came with high expectancies of some long awaited tastes of home. Unfortunately they were quickly replaced drenched with bad hospitality. I highly suspect the waiting list at the door is just a decoration, and anybody that is polite enough to put their name on it is just a fool like me, because the servers don't even look at it. They just sit whoever walks in the door. After bringing up the problem with the manager, we got a nice "lecture" AKA = yelling in the face, which reminded me of a scolding from my mom. Thanks for that. also I ordered an egg in my noodles... also an egg for my moms noodles. No eggs showed up. Who ate them? read more

We visited on a Sunday for lunch, and the place was quite busy. My husband and I ended up sitting side by side at a window seat since there were no regular tables available for immediate seating, and we didn't want to wait. The restaurant is spacious, and the restroom was clean. It operates on a mostly self-service system--orders are placed via a QR code on the table, and you can grab bowls, plates, utensils, napkins, and water yourself. I ordered the spicy beef noodle soup. While the portion size was generous, I found the soup to be quite bland. However, my husband enjoyed it. I'd rate it a 3/5. We also tried the beef roll, which was absolutely delicious. It had a generous amount of beef and cilantro, and the roll itself was fluffy and flaky. Easily a 5/5 for the beef roll. Overall, I'd definitely return when I'm craving beef noodle soup or those amazing beef rolls! read more

Okay I was not expecting much to be honest but this place is pretty authentic and so so good. We came right before opening on the weekend and glad we did. There were already a few people waiting. And then it got quite packed about an hour later. There are other Northern Cafes I've seen but this one is marked as RH so I'm not actually sure if it's the same thing or not. Got the 3 cold dishes with spicy beef, potato, and tofu skin with celery. The potato is so good here with light Sichuan oil taste and the tofu skin is refreshing. The spicy beef is a bit salty for my taste but goes well with the cold noodle with sesame paste as it didn't have any meat in there. The noodles had a lot more flavor than it looks and we were glad we got it. Beef roll was amazing. Literally everything here just made me say wow. My mouth is watering writing about this. I want to go again even though it's very out of the way for me. read more

Honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had. We ordered the Dongbei blood sausage and it was clearly not cooked. The inside was hard and raw-tasting. This isn't about personal preference, it's a basic food safety issue. When we pointed it out, the owner kept making excuses instead of fixing the problem. In the end, they very reluctantly just poured hot water over it and served it back, which was honestly shocking. Service was extremely slow the entire time, and the attitude was not great. What really crossed the line was that they still forced us to tip, even after all of this. With food this bad and service this slow, I don't understand how they think mandatory tipping is acceptable. We also ordered yi-xi and er-xi noodles. The er-xi came out way too thick, more like hand-pulled dough, nothing like what was described. Bad food, bad service, forced tipping. Definitely not coming back and would not recommend. （The dining area was dirty and poorly maintained, and I had stomach issues the next day） read more

I came here on Valentine's Day 2023 and I wrote a review for my friends on Instagram and decided it was time to share with Yelp haha. The food was really tasty. Something was extra good that day because I came here once before and once since and it was good but not extraordinary. Since Northern Cafe has become a reliable place to get delicious Chinese food no mater which location you choose. The Oil Spill Noodles, WOW WOW WOW! Delicious through and through. Truly the star of the show! I think about her day and night. So flavorful, spicy, and delicious. The Xiao Long Bao was average but the house made hot oil (also called Chili Oil) was the best restaurant hot oil that I have ever tried and wow! You need to order the Xiao long bao just so you can enjoy the hot oil. Mama Lu's has better Xiao Long Bao but this was tasty too. The Extra Large Lamb Skewer. They are NOT lying when they said extra large but keep in mind you are only getting one! Unfortunately for my wallet, it was the best shao kao I've ever had. So tasty, juicy, and flavorful but I cannot justify a $7 purchase for one skewer. A one time buy but what a delicious one time. The Mala Prime Beef Noodle Soup was tasty and authentic but nothing remarkable. The restaurant was clean and the employees were nice! I recommend any Northern Cafe as a reliable place to get a delicious bite. read more

Northern Cafe RH - Northern Cafe Review 3 - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

My friend and I ate at Northern Cafe on a drizzly Monday evening. We both had the Dan Dan Noodle ($11.95) and shared pork and 10-count cabbage pan-fried dumplings ($12.50). The noodle dish had a lot of minced pork with a heavy influence of cilantro. I really liked the noodle texture and enjoyed the slightly spicy flavor. The dumplings had a great texture and flavor to them. However, my friend preferred boiled dumplings since he usually eats them cooked that way. We ordered on my phone since they had a QR code on the table. After we made our order, I didn't know whether I had to pay immediately after. After we ordered, I didn't see anything on the website that prompted payment. Slightly confused, I just paid at the front, and the cashiers didn't mind. However, looking back, I believe I could've paid after we received our meals as the food would've arrived after our order. I had no issues about the restaurant's ambience; nothing of interest to note other than that we received standard service. If I come back again, I'd like to try their beef noodle soup and side dishes, such as beef rolls, potstickers, and scallion pancake. I also feel more confident about visiting again now I know how to order. read more

I had the spicy beef noodles with knife cut noodle it was delicious. I added two scoops of the chili oil which made it amazing. I went with family and friends and they all enjoyed their noodles. The steam buns was a pork shrimp and egg I believe . It wasn't bad but I probably wouldn't order again because I had to add a lot of vinegar and chili to make it good. It was just a bit bland for me. Will definitely be back to try other dishes. It is roomy and we got serviced immediately. They didn't seem to speak much English but it was totally fine easy to order when you scan the QR code on the table read more

We came in today at 8:05pm. There business hours stated closing at 9pm. They flipped all the chairs on too of the tables at 8:15pm!!! They also started cleaning the floor! And i mean, wet, foam floor with customers inside! We had 2 little ones 3 and 4yr old with us!!! There was no safety precautions...While we were still in there ordering our food! On top of that, the waitress seemed like she didnt want to be there. She had a hurry up and eat attitude. Definitely not a good customer experience. Food however was great! Very tasty! read more

Walked in Saturday about 5pm. No wait at all. I was very impressed by the brightness of the restaurant. Very high ceilings and pretty spacious. You sit down and there's QR codes for you to scan and order so no need for you to wait for someone to come take your order. We still had a waitress offer to take our order twice though so nice if you prefer one way or another. I ordered the spicy beef noodle through the website. They let you choose the thickness of your noodle - I chose regular since my first time. In the meantime, there's like a water/utensil station as well so it's a pretty self serve restaurant. Food came out fairly quick, and it was very good. I wish it was spicier or if I could have adjusted spice level, but it was very flavorful and had that really chili pepper flavor. The noodles were bouncy and chewy, you can tell they definitely they're made. Another thing I was happy was the portion side of the noodles! There were a lot of noodles in the bowl, but I will say there wasn't too much beef. The beef was tender and VERY good as well though. So very good bowl overall wish there was more bell meat though. Would highly recommend trying it if you're in the area. read more

We wanted to try Northern Cafe for some time now so it was an easy choice today after grocery shopping since they are in the same strip mall. Parking can be a challenge as there are many popular stores here. It is not a big place but I like the way it is arranged. Customers can walk up easily to the counter to order appetizers. Tables & chairs are close but not cramped. The self-help water station is there for anyone who wants a drink. Every table has a couple folded paper menu or you can order by scanning the QR code. Of course its food is the ultimate criteria to evaluate any restaurant. The beef noodle is very satisfying. The broth is flavorful. Spicy but not over the top. The home style fried noodles is okay but not very exciting. We also ordered a 3-items combo appetizers that is pretty good. We plan to be back to try other items on the menu. read more

This is the first time we eat inside this restaurant since 2020. It seems the menu has expanded now even includes southern Chinese style foods. Northern cafe is famous for hand made noodles, buns, pancakes, wraps, yummy cold dishes, and dumplings. We ordered too many stuff this time A2 beef noodle soup, A9 spicy intestine noodle soups, Chinese pork bun, boiled egg, spicy beef cold dish. The noodle soups are very large portions, so they are perfect for sharing. Noodles are hand made and provides good sensation when chewing them. One tip on soup noodle soups is you must finish them fast or noodles will get soggy. Warning: A9 is in higher side of spiciness - not for kids. Chinese pork bun is like pull pork in a bun. Boiled egg is too dried and cost $2.50... Cold dish spicy beef is very flavorful and adds just right amount of spiciness. Basically you order at counter and they deliver your dishes, they do clean up. It's actually good setup but it's more traditional Chinese eatery way. Service is quick and friendly. They offer Taiwanese sausage which is in automatic rotating grill - I didn't tried as it will taste dried because they just constantly rotating on heat pan. Overall very expansive menu, but personally I feel it should offer more of northern foods forte in making specialty dishes. read more

I decided to have dinner at Northern Cafe in Rowland Heights after taking the family to Costco this afternoon. We choose the House Special Beef & Tendon Noodle Soup, Combo: Two Meats One Veg, Cucumber Cold Dish, Braised Lamb Noodle Soup, Grilled Whole Squid and Stir-Fried Sliced Noodle. The noodles are freshly prepared, and every dish has a great flavor. I can only give it four stars because I have to take away one star because there are seven of us--three adults and four children--and the automatic 18% tips fee. In this self-serve restaurant, I get the bowls, water, and other items myself, yet I still have to pay 18%... read more

Write your name down on the list for a table, once seated scan the QR code to order and food will begin to arrive at the table There seems to be a counter where you can order side dishes to-go, but these side dishes can be ordered to the table ---lamb skewer: tender and although it was a little gamey, the seasoning worked well! ---hot & spicy prime beef soup with knife cut noodles: you get to choose any type of noodle you'd like!

I love coming here! I frequently come here and do takeout also. I love the side dishes that they have, you can see them and choose which ones you want. The noodle soups are all delicious, they are actually pretty big portions. Typically when I order takeout, I'll get an appetizer such as beef roll, and then one noodle soup to share between two people. The service is great, typical quick and easy. I was actually surprised at the interior of the restaurant provides a nice seating area. Cute decor. I recommend a spicy beef noodle soup, I like eating the wide noodles for the extra chewiness. If you are not feel like eating noodles, they also have some soup that you can order that are meat and broth only! I love that they have this option and you're not paying full price for a noodle soup read more

Northern Cafe Overall Rating: 3.5/5 Overview: My girlfriend and came here for the very time and our first impressions were fairly positive. As many other yelpers state, the service here is not great. Our waiter threw the menu and pen onto the table we were sitting at. Nonetheless, he attended all of our needs. This restaurant is unique in that, it offers a bast array of cuts for your soup noodle dishes (knife cut, thin, flat, etc.) and the interior had nice detailed finishes such as the traditional lantern designs. For food, we got the hot and spicy beef noodle and the beef rolls. The noodle soup had a bit of szechuan mala (numbing spice). The beef rolls meat was cold, a little sweet, and the crispy scallion roll had a great crunch! Pro: - the knife cut noodles are fairly unique in their own way with each strand of noodle having it's own textures - the broth was not as heavy as we expected - the slightly sweet beef rolls balanced the spiciness of the noodle dish - bathroom was very clean - interior was clean and aesthetic - portions are pretty big Cons: - we believe you can find better quality chinese food in the area - service can definitely be improved - not that many vegetables nor meat - if we came at a busier time, service could be sloppier and the restaurant will most likely be a lot more dirty Conclusion: As someone who loves exploring chinese restaurants, it was a fun experience coming here. Although this place is a very solid restaurant to come to, there are better and cheaper places. The total spent dining here was $30 . We could definitely find places with better service and at least subpar food. read more

One of my go to spots for a quick and hearty dinner with almost no wait. It's usually pretty quiet inside with no large parties. You order online through QR code, service is super fast, and you can get your own utensils/napkins/water in the front. I love this place for their cold appetizers - my favorites are the sliced beef, bean threads, and tofu skins. The servers are very generous about scooping your appetizers up. Their beef roll is consistently delicious. Other places' can lean towards being dry but these have the perfect pancake-meat-sauce-herb ratio. Their prime beef noodle soup is really flavorful but be mindful that it is really quite spicy. The meat is fatty and there's a lot of it and the noodles are great since they're so chewy. You can also pick the noodle thickness which is a nice touch! read more

「頤豐園」這個在南加州許多城市都可見其分店的 中餐連鎖品牌 Chinese Cuisine， 相信許多朋友許都不陌生。從一開始專賣中式北方菜色、烤串、炒菜，火鍋、餃子，到近期許多分店轉型成專賣蘭州拉麵，雖不確定是否是受疫情影響而轉型的，卻這般操作也讓生意撐了過來，在 哈崗 Hacienda Heights 與 羅蘭崗 Rowland Heights 的兩間分店仍持續營運，店家希望顧客吃飽的心情，無論是點用那種餐點都能讓人深刻感受，餐點份量大肯下料正是這裡的招牌特色。 位於羅蘭崗的店址是比較近期（2019）才開設的，附近唯一一間更早專賣蘭州拉麵的店，只有位於哈崗的 馬蘭拉麵，也因此當時開店後生意就相當火熱，經常是要排隊等位。 座椅安排有些擁擠，點菜上菜動線也有些混亂，好在挑高的用餐空間與牆上的圖案擺設，還是讓人不至於在用餐時感到太多的壓迫感。 開店時最讓人詬病的是這裡的服務，在網上經常可以看到顧客的抱怨，但自己是沒碰過類似的情形，吃飯排隊總難免，放開心胸才能吃得開心，等位時開開師父現場手拉製作拉麵的過程打發打發時間。 附上開店當時的菜單，菜色內容距今沒有太多的變化，依舊是以多種口味的麵食為主，一碗麵搭配一些串燒或涼菜就是簡單滿足的一餐，只是當前的價格早已隨著物價波動上漲許多。 說實在的，這裡的拉麵口味已經不在侷限於蘭州當地的口味，倒像是融合各個菜系，只要受歡迎的口味作法都會搭配手工拉麵來提供。 在疫情之前到店內用餐，在擺滿各種涼菜的餐臺前選擇自己喜歡的涼菜組成拼盤，也是一種提昇食慾的過程。豬耳絲、夫妻肺片、口水雞、腐竹、黃瓜、土豆絲等，清涼卻豐富的口感變化中，感受鹹香或是麻辣的風味，吃來十分開胃。 之前提到在其品牌之下甚至有專賣水餃的分店，無論是水餃或是煎餃，只要肚皮有空間的話都可以一試，吃得是皮厚餡多的粗獷風味。 在正宗蘭州拉麵餐廳裡應該不會出現的燙青菜，只要顧客願意點用就持續出現在菜單上，吃麵食追求飲食均衡也不壞。 這碗清湯牛肉麵，應該是菜單上比較跟蘭州拉麵有關連的菜色，然而在蘭州本地似乎通稱是蘭州牛肉麵，因為在當地以手工拉麵並讓顧客挑選粗細麵條是基本的要求，但發揚到外地後這個拉麵的過程與麵條的特色更有賣點，「蘭州拉麵」取代了「蘭州牛肉麵」飄洋過海來到異鄉。 手工拉麵的口感彈性不錯，但也不是印象中吃過最為Q彈的，但秉持著其品牌的精神，食材份量很捨得給，大片的肉塊與牛筋等確實是讓顧客吃來更加飽足的關鍵。 加入辣油的紅湯拉麵才是更符合蘭州牛肉麵「一清（湯）、二白（蘿蔔）、三紅（辣油）、四綠（蒜苗香菜）、五黃（麵條）」的精神準則，但在厚重的骨頭香氣中喝起來仍會膩口與乾渴的湯頭，味精應該也沒少放，把裡頭的食材吃完前就已經滿頭大汗。 炸醬乾麵與刀削炒麵也同樣是份量不小，但過重過油的鹹香是會讓人吃來感到負擔，口味不精緻但吃飽沒問題。 如前所述，雖品嚐過幾種比較粗的麵條，但口感與韌度多說不上突出，換個羊湯細粉或許是讓口中感受的負擔比較小些，如果要以道地的程度來說的話，馬蘭拉麵應該是更貼近蘭州在地的口味。 幾年前造訪後沒有太多想法，但在疫情當下透過外帶點用這裡的餐點回家品嚐後，卻讓人留下眉開眼笑的飽足感與強烈的風味。首先在心頭打響第一砲的，就是這份量還不小的手抓羊肉，烹煮時應該只加入鹽巴跟胡椒，最大程度保有羊肉的風味，騷香卻不會讓人感到厭惡，以常溫提供也是當地特有的吃法，肉質充滿彈性。 疫情當下也叫過其它餐廳提供的羊肉串，但在這裡打開盒蓋後看到那大尺寸帶著瘦肉與肥油的羊肉塊時，真的會讓人猛吞口水，調味與火喉掌握的也不錯，越是咀嚼香氣越是明顯。 外帶點用的是泡椒酸菜肥腸麵，這不同於傳統蘭州牛肉麵的口味卻也讓人吃出滿意的新高度，強烈卻富有香氣變化的湯頭，雖一樣會讓人越吃越口乾但至少那過程是愉悅的，酸菜與肥腸也相當夠味。 點用最細條的毛細拉麵，口感也是意外地比起其它幾種雖粗但不出色的麵條有著更暢快的吸食口感，同時吸附了飽滿的湯汁吃來更有滋有味。 羊雜麵算是這裡的魔王級料理，騷香的程度比起在 車庫美食 吃到的更能讓一般人接受，但吃多了還是讓人有些招架不住，建議配個沾醬當下酒小菜比較適合。 另外值得一提，這裡的外帶盒裝是值得其它餐廳學習的，乾溼分離保留麵條的口感，更堅實的容器也比較不容易在運送的過程中發生湯汁外漏。 喜歡肥肉口感的朋友，一定要試試這裡的肉夾饃，份量飽滿視覺上就已經拔得頭籌，鹹香肉汁浸入外層包裹肉餡的餅皮中，大口咬下每一口都是罪惡、每一口都是滿足，甚至比在專賣陝西料理餐廳吃到的有更強烈的滿足感。 牛肉蕃茄煎蛋麵是各種麵食中口味比較溫和的，湯汁酸爽地刺激味蕾，溫柔地打開食慾。 頤豐園的品牌特色也在拉麵之外的餐點中展現，餡料飽滿的牛肉捲餅，簡單粗暴卻貼心地傳達要顧客吃飽的心意。 終於在某天飢腸轆轆時挑戰了菜單上另外一道魔王等級的菜色，那就是這裡的大盤雞。如果說羊雜湯麵是一個光靠羊肉騷香一招半式打片江湖的高人，大盤雞就是以排山倒海、氣勢萬千的無敵掌法統領武林的最終BOSS，打開盒蓋的那瞬間原本自我感覺良好的食量瞬間回到原點。 香辣的醬汁口味雖是單一但透過麵條、雞肉、與蔬菜等不同的口感變化，為味蕾打上一波為平一波又起的衝擊，猛烈地打垮自以為是的食量，留下昏昏欲睡的食客與隔日午餐的剩菜。 整體來說，各種餐點口味要讓人吃來回味無比還是些難度，但至少在用餐當下那簡單粗暴的進食過程中感受到的飽足感卻是毋庸置疑 原本就喜歡去更早開設的哈崗那間店買份雞架回家配電視或下酒，或是在天冷時吃上一份料多實在的烤魚，兩間分店的料理是有區隔的，現在都是以賣拉麵為主，倒也讓自己在點菜選餐時少了些煩惱。 在當前通貨膨脹、物價飛漲的時刻，頤豐園這種大份量且捨得給料的餐點作法或許能受到更多顧客的迴響，吃得飽與吃得巧的選擇拉鋸，在這裡是不存在的。 read more

Very mid noodles. We've been here many times because of how convenient it is but it always tastes bad and off.

My friends and I come often and have never been disappointed. Noodle texture from all the times I've been is the right amount of bounciness and chew. Flavor is also spot on for any of the noodle dishes you get. The lamb skewers are huge chunks of meat unlike most skewer places, so the price is comparable to the size of skewer you get. Parking spaces can be tight and hard to find during the weekend. read more

Portion sizes here are family size!! Came with a group of friends and we ordered way too much. One portion of noodles is probably good enough for 2 really hungry people, or 3 people who are not so hungry. I only tried the lamb skewer ($5.95) which was pretty worth! The skewer pieces were huge and it was seasoned pretty well. My friends ordered their dumplings which were also really big and had a lot of filling. Cold sesame noodles were a bit on the salty side (probably from the sesame paste) but it was still good. We also got the golden prime beef noodle soup with knife cut noodles. The beef was really tender but the soup broth was not what I was expecting since it was spicy and a bit on the sour side. I wanted to try more but honestly our party was just struggling to finish one dish (since none of us were that hungry). I think overall the price is really worth for the portion sizes and the flavor is also decent! read more

Side dishes were good, service was a little rude and impatient, I ordered the A2 and the soup and noodle was burning hot and when it cooled down they clumped up and turned into a big blob, and the beef tasted and looked like frozen beef from the supermarket next door. The ambiance of the place was good, it had some Chinese cultural vibes with some drawings of them making the noodles. The noodle and sides was more expensive then before, now the noodles are about $15 read more

We checked out Northern Cafe in Rowland Heights. Just wondering, why are there so many Northern Cafe out there? Are they all secretly related? Anyhow, they specialized in handmade noodles and that was what we were there for. We got the house special beef noodle soup and spicy beef noodle soup. We also got some cold sides to go with our meal. The sides were meh and we didn't care for the spicy beef noodle soup. Even though the beef was braised and coated with spicy oil, it didn't have much flavor to it. We enjoyed the house special way more especially with the knife sliced noodles. It was all about the broth. Overall nothing really stood out but it was decent enough for us wanting to go back. Service didn't exist but it was a good quick meal. read more
