Northern Cafe - Cerritos

I would rate my personal dining experience at Northern Cafe a perfect 5 out of 5 stars! This is one of the best Chinese restaurants I have been to with reasonable prices, generous portions perfect for sharing, and exceptional customer service. Whether you choose a noodle dish, rice dish, or dumplings, the food is absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant and cannot wait to return for another fantastic dining experience at Northern Cafe.

This restaurant should be as busy as the two generations next to them. The food is amazing - the noodles are fantastic, the string beans are fabulous, and the dumplings are delicious. You should definitely come here, it's that good!

This is my go-to Chinese restaurant! It's a hidden gem that is usually not crowded when I visit. The food is consistently delicious and we have not been disappointed with any of our orders. The staff provides great customer service and is accommodating to large parties. While there are other locations in the chain, this one is definitely the best.

I love ordering anything with Sichuan peppercorn but my favorite is Chongqing chicken and Cold Noodles. This location is did a fantastic job on my Chongqing chicken—not too much breading and chunky chicken pieces. Service was good. Parking is a little tight. Food is cooked to order so I waited 15 minutes. I stopped in for takeout during lunch and the restaurant was packed.

Pretty solid sit-in Chinese food restaurant with traditional selection of Chinese dishes. Me and my mom got the Sichuan Dan Dan Noodles which were amazing in the broth it came in, Juicy Pork Dumplings which were a burst of flavor when you bit into them, Green Onion pancakes were hot fresh and delicious and Chow Mien with chicken also a great dish. Overall great place and nice servers! Will come here again.
