Very honest opinion: Not sure if I'm eating the same food as everyone else leaving reviews here,…read morebut I got the signature beef (Lanzhou) noodle soup combo and it was incredibly disappointing~mediocre. Server guy was chill. The food is served in a paper bowl, unlike the nice bowls you see in their pics. Tl;dr: if you're curious, don't waste your time, bafang is open 5min away Preface: I KNOW it's mall food, but for a restaurant that continuously pops up as #1 on Yelp whenever I search for food around the northridge/chatsworth area, I'm going to treat it as if it were a #1 spot. Beef noodle soup: to be very blunt, this was quite flavorless. The beef was dry as bones and looked like it was sliced with a mandoline. The noodles seemed undercooked and it felt like I was eating al dente spaghetti noodles. I got a medium spice level which didn't even seem that spicy, just a lot of cough inducing chili oil with no burn. Pan fried dumplings were ok. It honestly tasted like it was deep fried and not pan fried. Unsweetened black tea: hands down the best of the 3 things in the combo, which is quite telling. Honestly you get a decent amount of food for $15. But to constantly take the top 5 for recommended on Yelp in this area and waste my time to even look at it, it definitely doesn't belong remotely close to top 10.

The restaurant is a cozy space with plenty of seating and a welcoming atmosphere. And the lady who served us was nice and even gave us more kimchi when she saw we were out. The jajangmyeon was good, but the jjamppong was the star of the meal, absolutely delicious! The broth was flavorful and satisfying, and it definitely hit the spot. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying some of their other dishes.

The amount of food that you receive is commensurate to the price they charge. The restaurant is small but very well kept and clean. The service was fast, and the food perfect and oh so tasty from the sides to the main dish. The location was fantastic as it was just mere blocks from the campus. I have had Korean food in our area, but it doesn't compare to what we had at the Ppong. We look forward to trying more of their menu the next time we are in the area.

A couple of friends and I stopped by this place in Northridge for a late-night dinner run, and oh…read moremy goodness, it was the best decision we could've made. The staff were incredibly nice and understanding, and eager to explain what each of the dishes offered and what the popular menu options were. The dishes themselves were amazing, they came out incredibly fresh and in sizable portions for a very good price. I'd never tried this kind of cuisine before, but this food truck has earned itself a loyal customer. I highly recommend the Loaded Momos, they're the perfect blend of spicy and savory. The ones in the butter sauce are also amazing and I couldn't get enough of them. Definitely be sure to try the Chillys, the chicken was incredibly fresh and melted in your mouth. If you're looking for a nice little spot with attentive staff who take care of their customers, this is the place for you. There's at least one table outside where you can sit, but otherwise, you can always just get them to bring the food to your car. Absolutely check this place out and show them your love.

We stopped by Himalaya Momos for an office lunch date, and it turned out to be the perfect spot for…read morea fun, flavor-packed break. Since it was a group visit, we ended up tasting almost everything on the menu--and every single item impressed us. We started with pani puri, which was fresh, tangy, and full of that classic street-food punch. The chili chicken was crispy and spicy with great flavor, while the hakka noodles were well seasoned and comforting. The jhol momos were rich and flavorful, and the steamed momos were juicy, soft, and perfectly cooked--simple and delicious. One of the biggest highlights was their new addition: Maggi. It was hands down the best--pure nostalgia in a bowl and exactly the kind of comfort food you crave. And for me, the clear winner was the loaded fries--crispy, generously topped, and absolutely addictive. I loved them and would happily go back just for those. Even though it's a food truck, it gives you the perfect feel of enjoying authentic snacks and momos, just like true street food should. The food was fresh, portions were generous, and service was quick and friendly. If you're craving authentic Himalayan flavors, comforting momos, and nostalgic snacks, Himalaya Momos is a must-try. Perfect for a quick lunch, office outing, or anytime street-food craving.

I love the homemade kimchi and takuan. I could eat both of these with some rice all day. We started with some noodle soup. Handcut noodles, beef dumplings and vegetables made for a comforting start to the meal. Then we got an order of dim sum. They give you quite a few pieces. They are stuffed with pork and Chinese and are absolutely delicious. We also got a half order of the Korean Fried Chicken. It was piping hot and very crispy. The kimchi steamed buns were next. They were large and very filling. Each bun was packed woth kimchi, pork and vegetables. We ended with sweet red bean steamed buns. These were also large and filling. A great way to finish our meal. A great place for dumplings and not worrying about leaving hungry. Great service too!

Not super spicy, more sweet taste but insanely flavorful and addictive. We got a half order, which consisted of 1 wing, 1 drumstick, 1 thigh, 2 rib, 2 breast, costing $16.99. A whole order of chicken is $28.99. We would definitely order again. Dumplings are handmade fresh daily. You can literally taste the difference in every bite -- juicy fillings, delicate wrappers, and that perfect pleat. We tried: Dim Sum 10 pc $16.99 Korean style dumplings 8 pc $15.99 King Steamed Dumpling With Pork And Vegetables 4pc $15.99 Pan Fried Dumplings 10pc $16.99 My favorites were the Korean style dumplings and Pan Fried Dumplings. King Steamed Dumpling With Pork And Vegetables is huge, fluffy and bouncy. The taste of the filling was okay. The dim sum was a good size and looked pretty. Hard to pick up with chopsticks without the bottom breaking. The bottom was really delicate so using a spoon makes it easier. The Marinaded Beef $15.99 (half order) was perfect with rice. Complimentary small Sides: kimchi, pickled radish and cabbage salad. I really liked the pickled radish. This place is tucked away in a strip near the Northridge Promenade Shopping Center. Parking can be difficult during peak hours. Nyi had wonderful customer service.

We arrived a few minutes after they opened for the day and the service was fast. The store had plenty of parking. The store was clean and quiet. We ordered their bestseller Kuromayu ramen, seaweed salad, and shrimp shumai. Quite honestly, the ramen was waaay better than Silverlake Ramen. It was much tastier! The meat was so tender and it was well-seasoned. The seaweed salad was OK. And the shumai were four large pieces with generous portions of shrimp. What a great find on Reseda Boulevard.

I don't eat pork, but I'm okay with pork broth, so I asked if I could substitute the pork chashu for chicken. What I received instead was popcorn chicken, which was unexpected and not at all what I had in mind. There was no communication that this would be the substitute, which made it even more frustrating. On top of that, I was still charged for it without any clarification beforehand. Transparency goes a long way, especially when making substitutions. Overall, between the lackluster flavor and the confusing substitution, it just didn't feel like a thoughtful or well-executed experience.

The Shanghai Dumplings are savory and the soy sauce is excellent. The Orange Chicken is really a must have.

The Zha Jiang Mian (Beijing black bean noodle) is quite interesting. It's not sweet, but not too salty or sour. It's savory with its sauce with a hint of the saltiness from the pork and tofu. I have to say though I thought the black bean sauce was more watery than I expected. It could be a little thicker, but it's a minor point.
