Northern Cafe - Temple City

Friendly staff, fast came at a non-bz time, so we have all attention. I'm trying new things and I'm glad food was delicious. More left. Inside and outside the parking dining room. Fried pig bell was nicely thin, not the thick way and I like thin. Pancake was crispy.

Beautiful decor! Your 炸醬麵 has more water content than I am used to, but the noodles were soft chewing beautiful texture. It's more pricier than expected. Be ready. The staff was nice and attentive.

This place that serves sesame green onion bread, which was delicious!!! The other dishes were also delicious. Expected not that the pig **** is deep fried, but it was fleshy and the skin was very crispy. Not cheap; we paid over $70 with tip for both of us. Chinese food has to be too expensive!!!

My children recommended this place, so I tried. The place was clean and spacious, the food tastes fresh. I cannot comment too much about their services because there was not much to serve. I noticed they have 2 VIP rooms, and the minimum is reasonable. I like this restaurant and I come back.

Have been craving for Northern Chinese food today and decided to order take-out from my favorite go to northern Chinese food restaurant. Northern Cafe has all the right stuff to satisfy my craving. They are famous for their hand made noodle varieties. I particularly like their house special fry noodles with mama’s chili sauce and hand cut noodle. Another of my favorite dish is their beef pan cake roll. Unlike pre-pandemic food, Today’s beef tendon was tough and hard to bite on. Normally this dish is full of flavor with tender and tasty marinated beef tendons. The third dish we ordered today was their soy been with pickled veges and bean curb skin. This is a famous shanghai food and this restaurant has done it right. Besides these three dishes mentioned, Northern Cafe has a very comprehensive northern Chinese food menu. I highly recommend their Jiaozi dumpling) and pot stickers. I have to said they are the best in the San Gabriel Valley. The sour cabbage fish soup is another dish worthy of trying out. I am sure I will be back for more of their foods. Can’t wait to try other dishes.
