Northern Cafe 1637 South Azusa Avenue, Hacienda Heights, CA 91745

"Noodles are handmade and the portion sizes are quite large. Service is fast and the beef roll wrapping is the perfect thickness and crispness. Would recommend this restaurant."

"Small spot but amazing Chinese dishes. I ordered the beef shank noodle soup with the flat noodles (you get to choose which ones you want). First of all, it’s huge. In it came with 2 large bone in shanks which were tender and delicious! It wasn’t spicy but it was very flavorful. I added chili oil to spice it up. Next time I’ll just order it spicy. I was really impressed with this place. Def going back there for more!"

"Good restaurant to grab a quick bite to eat. They have a lot of different noodle dishes where you can select the thickness of the noodles. All of the noodles are hand made. They have dumplings and various side dishes. They also have a cold Appetizer counter where you can select different items. The cold cucumbers, seaweed and pig ear are good. Service is not very attentive and it's a smaller restaurant."

"The big plus about this place is the portion is huge. One bowl of noodles is good for at least two people. Noodles were fresh and chewy in soup. The soup base was good but not the best. The cold noodles texture was too tough to eat. I love my noodles to be chewy but not too tough. The noodles in the soup had the perfect texture though. Side dish: seaweed was really good with the vinegary taste. The red oil pork tummy wasn't spicy and it was really tasty. The tofu skin had no taste and the texture was too hard. I guess the server was too busy to serve all the tables on a busy weekend, so he was a little too busy to answer questions properly. I'll still go back to give the stir fried knife-cut noodles a try and order the side dishes along with it."
