Chinese Cafe 南北和 665 Pasquinelli Drive, Westmont, IL 60559

"Have been here for breakfast during weekend a couple times. Love the cold dishes, very flavorful and authentic Chinese taste. Also always order the beef noodle soup and the fried dough stick with soy milk. The downside is that sometimes the food quality seems varies. Sometime food tasted like it’s been there for a while. But it’s still a good Chinese breakfast place in Chicago area."

"This place may not be a comfortable restaurant, but the advantage is no tipping, decent food quality (around 80%), and affordable prices. It's a great choice if you just need a quick lunch. Chinese Cafe also maintains a good standard for some dishes, especially the salt and pepper fish, which is incredibly crispy and worth a try. Recently, the experience I had was that the kitchen completely messed up my friend's noodle order. My friend originally ordered A+B to share and mix with his wife, but the chef made it A+A. However, since it still tasted good, we didn't make a fuss. We're not sure if it was a mistake in taking the order or if the chef made the error."

"If you like traditional Taiwanese breakfast food like fried bread stick, sweet or salted bean milk, flapjack with beef, seafood congee or fried pork dumplings. However I think the traditional Taiwanese breakfast is only offered on the weekends, call them to double check. I got the fried pork chops to go, I was disappointed on how little pork chops is in an order. I feel like it was half order size v"

"Classic and authentic Chinese food executed deliciously. Its a no frills place with food served on styrofoam, however it shouldn’t detract from the experience. Their food is consistent and packed with flavor and care. I love their spicy beef noodle soup, crispy smelt fish (my favorite), pork and cabbage dumplings, and pork chop. The staff are kind and take time to answer our questions and provide recommendations. It’s a hidden gem that everyone should go try."

"Loved it! Everything is freshly made. The pork vegetable bun is AMAZING! The wonton soup is flavorful. The leek pocket is good, but could use more fillings (too much dough). The meat flapjack has little meat and too much dough, the ratio is off, even though the flavor is still good. The bitter melon fish stir fly is very good! People are very friendly! Highly recommend!"
