I recently visited Northern Cafe and ordered the bok choy, Kung Pao chicken, shrimp dumplings, white rice, and Lao Gan Ma fried noodles with chicken—and everything was excellent.

The food was fresh, well-seasoned, and served in generous portions. While every dish was flavorful, the shrimp dumplings were the clear star of the show—perfectly cooked, tender, and absolutely delicious.
Service was good with solid customer service, and the restaurant had a nice, clean atmosphere that made the experience even more enjoyable.
Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I would definitely return.

If you love dumplings and yummy fried rice … it’s fairly priced , tasty and fresh. Fave dishes include the shrimp fried rice, garlic green beans ( yeah i don’t even love green beans but they add salty garlicky crack here!) and the eggplant with garlic sauce with mushrooms and a dash of pork . Soup dumplings are winner. Potstickers yum.
The San Pedro locale has lamb dumplings that they need to add here!
Hint hint owners lol.

The balance of seasonings here is proper, the fried rice is usually perfect. I’m becoming a regular.

It can be a hit or a miss with Chinese food. Our friends introduced this place to us and I am very glad to say that this place was a hit with us.
Delicious food and not overly greasy (as in other places).
The place is very big and very spacious. Cool staff, they were very busy.
This place has vegetarianvegan options.
We ordered Sautéed Mushroom, Vegetarian Eggplant W Garlic Sauce, Vegetarian Mapo Tofu, Steamed Vegetarian Dumplings and Red Bean buns.
Absolutely loved all the dishes. The Red Bean buns took forever to come, so order in advance as it takes a while to be cooked. But it was a delightful, very soft bun with yummy filling.
Their portions are not very generous as other Chinese places but the food is just so delicious.
Would we visit this place again? A hell yes!!

Wow. I am so disappointed by my most recent experience at this restaurant. I love the food here and the service is usually decent but tonight was different.

My friends and I arrived and it wasn’t empty but it wasn’t packed either. We were seated and ordered appetizers while we were thinking about our entrees. It was my friends’ first time there so they were reading over the menu. Our waiter was nice and friendly.

While we were still deciding on our entrees, a taller gentleman who I assuming was the shift manager came over and took two of the menus from us. He “asked” if he could take them and leave us with one but he had already taken them from us before we could answer. He said he needed some for the front which I was assuming because there were customers who didn’t have any menus but he simply moved them to the front of the restaurant to the host stand. So rude.

We ordered our entrees and we got our food but our waiter never came back to ask how we were doing. Waiters and waitresses kept walking by but wouldn’t look at our table and were clearly out of water.

I stopped one of the waitresses and asked if we could have our water refilled as well as the hot green tea that we ordered. She looked miserable and like she didn’t want to be there. She came back and refilled our waters and we said thank you but she just walked away without responding and never refilled the tea we asked for.

Our waiter finally came back much later after the shift manager heard me complaining about the service. The shift manager never addressed it either, but my friends saw that he was listening when I was complaining about the service.

It’s unfortunate because I love the food here. The food was great tonight but I am embarrassed that I took my friends here because our experience was so bad. Not sure if I’ll ever dine in restaurant again, may just order take out from now on.

Went there Friday 1/16 at 430pm. I don’t know what was going on that day. I got the wantons, dumblings, orange chicken and fried rice. Besides the service being pretty bad and the orange chicken and fried rice being super mid and unimpressive. The dumblings and wantons were absolutely terrible, I mean it tasted like there was some kind of cleaner or chemical tasting. I’m a person who as an extremely strong stomach, like I’ve eaten spoiled food before and didn’t have an issue, with this food I threw up about an hour later and got mild food poisoning. So congrats to this place for being the second place ever that served food that was inedible to me, that’s impressive in its own right. The insult was them trying to gas light me saying it tasted normal, hell no it did not, I was willing to pay someone else to try it and give me their opinion. They did take off those wantons and dumplings off the receipt which was nice, I still tipped because I’m not a monster. But damn, this place was impressively bad in a very hilarious way. Again good job for being the second place ever to give me food poisoning that deserves a medal

We had so much fun at this restaurant! Chris, our server, was so helpful and friendly. He recommended several dishes we would like as a family of 4 with two teenagers. It is family style and we shared all of the dishes. Everything was delicious. We would absolutely go again when in Long Beach.

If I could give 100/10 stars to Northern cafe,
I would! This is the BEST Northern cafe branch, which is saying a lot because they’re all so good. The food here is outstanding (get the oil spill noodles and of course the dumplings), but what really sets this place apart is the staff. They’re attentive, kind, and will always go the extra mile to make customers feel at home.

Eduardo, Paulina, Liam, Juan, Christian, Gladys, Chris, and the whole staff here are one in a million. We’ve become regulars and always leave happier than when we come in thanks to them.

Do yourselves a favor and pay them a visit!

Finally got around to eating here. Been craving soup dumplings for a while, wanted to try this place out. Just got the regular pork ones, but while the flavor was great, it did lack the “bite and sip” for more than half of them. The Chongqing chicken, on the other hand, was phenomenal and exactly what I love in Chinese cooking. Meat was juicy, perfectly crispy, and the peppers were balanced between spicy and a little bit of numbing, but NOT overwhelming. Would love to come back and try other things.

We ordered the orange chicken, chicken fried noodle and the chicken dumplings. Everything came out at different times. We asked for the dumplings first. They came 15-20 min after the noodles. Then, when we were eating the dumplings, we noticed the chicken was pink and raw! We even asked multiple staff members and they all agreed it was raw. Although, the orange chicken and noodles were tasty. We just worried that we would get food poisoning.
