A good place for rice noodles, and I really loved their broth! My go to is their sliced beef rice noodles, portions were good too. The restaurant is also very clean. Not to mention, when you order takeout, they pack everything so nicely! Service was fast too!

Note: there is a small parking lot right next to the restaurant although all seem to be compact sized, street parking is plenty too if you have a larger car. And, they also do happy hour from 2-6pm for snacks and drinks.

Great atmosphere, excellent service, very clean, and amazing food quality.

We were shocked to find a restaurant of this quality in LA as we tried almost every rice noodle restaurant around. We're returning again next week to try the rest of their menu.

Highly recommended for y'all soup noodle lovers out there. ? This place is suitable for groups, families, and dates with it's floor window night street view. I only do long views like these once in a while, they earned it.

Noodles We ordered the
*Spicy sliced beef noodles (10/10)
*Tomato minced pork rice noodle (9/10)
*Tom Yum rice noodles. (9/10)
@think they didn't add any MSG ?. The broth's packed with flavor and not too over seasoned.

Appetizer we ordered
*Popcorn chicken (9/10)
*Chicken wings (10/10)
*Sausage. (8/10)
@all their deep fried chicken dishes were so damn juicy. IDK how. Sausage is Taiwanese style.

Ask them for these crispy balls with sweet coconut milk tapioca fillings for dessert. IDK the name, shown my pictures.

You will surprise yourself asking for their unique flavor lemon ice tea. Just ask for it.

Parking lots are in the back of the restaurant. We parked at the social security parkings as they are close after 4pm. This is going to be helpful, this restaurant gets busy.

It tastes really bad. I'll go there and the service attitude is also bad.

The food was excellent and there was no waiting time during lunch hour. Upon arrival, you will be seated promptly. Their rice noodle soup is served in a unique bowl with a handle. Despite the service being satisfactory, we do not find it to be exceptional. The sole issues we have are parking challenges due to the proximity of the Social Security Office in the same location. Therefore, only street parking is available.

Was excited to try this place, feels homey inside and the employees are great at answering any questions you might have.

Food is a little pricey for a big bowl of rice noodles and some assorted toppings that are on the cheaper end (canned corn, bok choy, some strings of wood ear mushroom). We tried the tom yum and the green pepper special they had for that day. Tom yum didn't really taste like the thai tom yum we all know, it was really sweet!! The green pepper was a little better in the chinese herbal flavors but very spicy.

Great to try once but I probably won't be back for $16-$18 a bowl. It's kind of like the bowl of noodles you'd make at home with your leftover hot pot broth, kind of vibe~

Staff friendly and quick! Parking on street or neighboring free Alhambra lots.

Unfortunately, my experience was quite underwhelming, leading me to rate it 3 out of 5 stars.

Ambiance:
The restaurant’s ambiance was bland and forgettable. The decor was minimalistic to the point of feeling lifeless, lacking any charm or unique touches that might make it stand out. The lighting was too dim for my liking, giving the space a somewhat gloomy feel. There was nothing about the atmosphere that made me want to linger or come back for a repeat visit.

Service:
The service at this place was the one bright spot in an otherwise lackluster experience. The staff was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. From the moment I walked in, I felt well taken care of. They were quick to take my order and ensure everything was to my liking throughout the meal. Their excellent service was the only aspect that truly stood out and made the visit somewhat enjoyable. If only the rest of the experience matched the quality of their service.

Food:
The rice noodles, which are the cornerstone of their menu, were just average. The flavors were muted, and the dish lacked the vibrant, fresh ingredients that I expect from good Asian cuisine. The broth was bland and needed more seasoning. There was nothing particularly wrong with the meal, but there was nothing exciting or memorable about it either. It felt like something I could easily prepare at home with a packet of instant noodles and a few basic ingredients.

Value:
In terms of pricing, it was fair, but the lack of quality in the food and overall experience made it feel like it wasn’t worth what I paid. There are many other places in San Gabriel Valley where I could get a more enjoyable meal for a similar price.

Overall:
This place is the epitome of mediocrity. While the service was outstanding and the staff made me feel welcome, everything else about the restaurant, from the ambiance to the food, felt like it was done just enough to get by without any real passion or effort. If you’re in a pinch and need a quick meal, it might suffice, but there are definitely better options out there if you’re looking for a satisfying and enjoyable dining experience.

Would I go back? Probably not. There are too many other places that offer a more memorable and enjoyable meal. If you’re in the area and craving rice noodles, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

pretty good. They let you exclude ingredients you don't like. per bowl is 13.99/15.99 depending on the set, very reasonable compared to other rice noodle places

Exceptional flavors define this Chinese rice noodle spot.
Each dish bursts with fresh ingredients and aromatic spices. The noodles are perfectly cooked, and the toppings add delightful texture and depth. Friendly service and reasonable prices make it a go-to destination for noodle lovers.
Additionally, their ice lemon tea perfectly complements the savory flavors of the rice noodles. Refreshing and balanced, it's the ideal beverage choice to accompany your meal, offering a delightful contrast to the rich, savory dishes. A must-try for a complete dining experience.
