Dim Sum Restaurants near Northridge, CA

“Northern Chinese cuisine is so good! We were in the mood for some good dumplings and noodle, and I remembered that I wanted to try this restaurant Northern Cafe right by CSUN.

It's a nice, spacious restaurant with plenty of booths and windows. The staff were friendly and the food came out on time, so that's a plus there.

Now when it came to our meal, we definitely enjoyed everything that we ordered. We started out with Garlic Chicken Wings and Popcorn Chicken (not spicy at all, but delicious), and they both were great starters, especially if you like having the saltier side of your fried chicken. The Popcorn Chicken is almost addicting and it's easy to finish it before you know it.

Then out comes the House Special Beef Noodle Soup which I think is almost a mandatory must-have. I did wish I went with hand-pulled noodles instead of the regular noodle, but you can't go wrong with any of their noodle options. The broth was, warm, calming, and steeped in the wonderful aromatic beef flavor, while the noodle and beef were cooked to near perfection. Add some (or a lot) of chili oil, and you have yourself some noodle nirvana!

The handmade Juicy Pork Dumplings may be hot (caution), but slurping the hot soup out of them was half the fun! They were well made and were just a treat. 8 pieces are plenty to start so they're not stingy with their portions.

Finally, the Angus Beef Fried Rice was our last dish and it was quite good although it fell a bit short compared to the other dishes. It's not that it was not tasty, it just wasn't as tantalizing and was a bit more one-note and could have uses a bit more kick in the flavors.

All in all though, I'm looking forward to coming back to try more of their menu!“

“My kids took me there for Father's day, the beer that I ordered wasn't cool enough, so the lady that was taking care of us came with the best idea, a jar half water half ice,to make sure that my beer was cool enough, to me that's going over board, I love it.“

“I recently order to go there,and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu offered a delightful variety of authentic Chinese dishes, making it hard to choose.

I opted for the spicy Chicken and fish.both of which were beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The chicken was perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of spice, while the fish were tender and delicious.

The service was impeccable; our server was attentive and knowledgeable, offering great recommendations. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, enhancing the overall dining experience.

To top it all off, the prices were reasonable for the quality of food and service. I left feeling satisfied and eager to return. Whether you're a fan of Chinese cuisine or trying it for the first time, AW is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“Definitely one of my favorite spots in the Valley. A must try if you are in the Studio City area. ?. Been coming here with the family for a few years now food and service is always awesome I truly recommend it. Last but not least the portions are large that you can share with the family.????“

“The food at BBQ Unlimited is frickin' AMAZING! I've been going here for years and my faves are bbq pork, the duck (1/2), shrimp fried rice with extra garlic, beef ha fun noodles, the dim sum and Thai ice tea. It has become only take out since Covid and ambiance is limited, but my order is always ready for me 10-15 minutes after I call in. The food smells so good, I can't wait to get home to eat. When family comes into town, they always want me to pick up BBQ Unlimited. You can't beat the prices, portions and quality of food. I love this place!“

“I love the new location and the Dim Sum served all day and night!“
