Northern Cafe El Segundo

It’s a very good Chinese restaurant that I have ever eat in LA, all the food are delicious and the price is reasonable, you must try it if you like Chinese food

There aren't that many authentic (Panda Express doesn't count, but they are still pretty good) Chinese restaurant within 4 miles from where I live until I saw Northern Cafe had just opened a new branch in El Segundo, I didn't think about it and just decided to have my dinner there.

The place has pleasant lighting, it is spacious and also very cozy. Customer service are great! Bathroom was also clean. Now, let's get started with what you all came here to read, the food (duh~!) 😁

- Chicken Wings 🍗: These are great, crispy, juicy, seasoning was spot on, I wish I had ordered more of this. Honestly, I would be content with just a bowl of white rice and 2 orders of these awesome wings!

- Szechuan Dan Dan Noodle🍜: It can be a little spicy (think Killer noodle) for some of you. But I promise, if you persevere long enough with Chinese spicy food, it would open your world to endless variations of Chinese dishes (Yes, I am bribing you!) 😶.

- Boiling point-ish: Not bad, but nothing to rave about. Not to mention they don't actually give you fire for this, so your food would get cold very quickly.

Spicy Beef🌶️🐄: This is probably my favorite dish of the day. Juicy, tender chewy and has that authentic Szechuan spice flavor to it! I highly recommend this if you can take spice!

White Garlic Broccoli 🥦🧄: The broccoli are really fresh but I think they are a little too salty for my taste.

The pricing was reasonable and they are open till 9, which is great. Overall I would recommend this restaurant if you live near El Segundo and don't want to drive to Gardena for Chinese food. 👍🏼

What a great experience! Delicious and very tasty. It was so good that we kept going back. We are glad we did. They have open for only 6 months. We are glad to support local business. Please open one in Franklin, TN.

We really enjoy the flavor of food here and have eaten at the Westwood location a few times. Unfortunately, they must be working out some kinks still at this location as we received no rice with our takeout order and they gave us shrimp dumplings instead of pork. Also, their vegetable noodles could use some more vegetables. There were only two pieces of broccoli in the entire order. Five stars for flavor, but only 3 for everything else.
