Noodles in Alhambra, CA

“Nem Nướng Khánh Hoà is widely praised for its authentic Vietnamese cuisine and warm atmosphere. The restaurant’s specialty is nem nuong cuon, a dish of grilled pork meatballs wrapped in rice paper and served with fresh herbs and vegetables. The dish stands out for its flavorful, fresh grilled pork and the crunchy texture of the accompanying ingredients“

“I drove by and thought this place looked interesting ? so I tried it out.The entrance is actually on the other side of the restaurant.

It was goodSmall sausages - was pretty good. I attached pictures below.It was clean, decently friendly and simple menu along with good customer service.“

“This is my go-to Indonesian restaurant whenever I’m in LA. I live in Colorado, but I travel here from time to time for business, and Wayang is always on my list.

The food is delicious and authentic, and I love that Ibu Lily makes most of it herself from scratch. She used to be a private chef for celebrities in Los Angeles, and you can definitely tell she knows her way around the kitchen. Everything I’ve had here has been full of flavor and thoughtfully prepared.

When I visited, Wayang was only taking to-go orders, but they still had a few tables set up for customers who preferred to eat there. It’s a self-serve setup, you grab your own water and utensils and eat from the takeout container. Honestly, I really liked the casual setup. Since the restaurant was set up for to-go service, Ibu Lily let me stay for as long as I wanted, which was perfect since I had a little work to get done. It made the whole experience feel relaxed and unhurried. This way, I had the chance to try several different dishes.

For me, that’s part of the charm of Wayang: authentic Indonesian food, made from scratch, without all the fuss—it feels like home. I’ll definitely be back.“

“We had dinner at 鹵億鮮 Luyixian in Alhambra last night and really enjoyed it. The food tasted authentic, comforting, and full of flavor.

I ordered the braised beef noodles, which is one of their best sellers, and it was really good—the beef was tender and the broth was rich and flavorful. My wife had the beef brisket with rice, and she really enjoyed hers too.

We’ll definitely be coming back. Another big plus is that they’re open late, so it’s a great spot if you’re looking for a good late-night dinner in Alhambra. Highly recommend!“

“i bring all my friends here this is literally one of my og spots in the 626. get the big mouth pocket and sesame pancake, do not get the green scallion pancake. also don't recommend the sheng jian bao, but highley recommend the big mouth pocket and the black bean noodles zhajiangmian. love the auntie who works here she's always super sweet and takes care of us.“

“it was very affordable, only we couldn't resist ordering more because it was all delicious. everything we tried was harmonious. except the egg cheese buldak ramen wrap, although that could have been expected. we ate lunch here, and came back the same day for dinner because it was too good.“

“Very well run and maitained. The Ramen choices are delicious with lots of options. Try the spicy chicken sandwich too!!“

“Needed something warm and soupy for the rainy day. Find this spot on a whim and I gotta say I'm so dang lucky I decided to eat here. I ordered the rattan noodles and they were deliciously spicy. I usually eat medium to low spice but this was perfect. I'm a new fan!“

“The food was perfect and the service was excellent! We don’t live close by. We were just visiting the San Gabriel Mission. However, whenever we go back to the area, we will definitely come back!“

“1st time at this restaurant and have to say the food was delicious and well made. The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly and helpful with explaining what comes in their food. There veggie dumplings were amazing aswell as everything else i ordered. Will definitely be going back“

“If you like eating Taiwanese food, you want to come here. Great tasting food and very reasonable priced. One of the most authentic Taiwanese restaurants in SGV (in my opinion). ���“

“Took my mom to try Kopan Sushi & Ramen on Main Street in Alhambra this past Sunday. They have a rear parking lot, but it’s a bit on the smaller side. Luckily, I managed to snag the very last spot. As soon as we walked in, we loved the ambiance. The decor gives off a great vibe that makes you feel like you're in Japan. The service was good too; the staff made us feel very welcome. We were both craving sushi rolls and were happy to find out they had a buy-one-get-one 50% off promotion on their special rolls. I ordered the Baked Scallop California Roll (BSCR) for my mom and the Dragon Roll for myself. The presentation was beautiful, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh and delicious. We had a great experience and will definitely be back to try their ramen and other menu items next time!“

“I was craving Thai food in the area and saw this place as an option. I wasn't sure how it would be but it ended up being really good. Tried a few options and was really surprised how great the red curry tasted. The pad see-ew was also great. The staff was friendly and gave suggestions. The inside area is spacious.“

“I had a wonderful meal here today. Everything was fresh, hot, and prepared with care.

The thin noodles were cooked perfectly and paired beautifully with the tender beef. I especially loved the rich, dark savory sauce and the side of broth with scallions. The dumplings were just as impressive, with a delicate wrap and a savory filling that hit the spot.

I am already looking forward to my next visit to try more of their menu. This place is a real gem in Alhambra.“

“I came here because I heard the rice noodles were their signature dish, and they were definitely good. But for me, the real standouts were the grilled fish, the charcoal BBQ, and the sweet and sour pork (Guo Bao Rou). Those dishes had the authentic flavors I grew up with. Everything tasted freshly made, well-seasoned, and very traditional. If you’re looking for genuine Northeastern Chinese comfort food, this place is absolutely worth a visit.“

“I think the most popular and best this year is the pho with a beef rib. Otherwise I would say everything else is pretty much what you would expect from a solid Vietnamese restaurant. Quality of the food is fresh and good but I wouldn't say it stands out from other places in the area. I've had their bun which was very good, and their pho, which was also quite good. I don't think anyone will be disappointed with the quality of service and food here though I think there are some other spots that stand out more.“

“Our favorite place to eat when we fly into Los Angeles! A huge menu and everything we tried was tasty. And the portions are huge with very reasonable prices. The menu is big & diverse, containing Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other Asian dishes, as well as fish & chips, steaks, chops, and grilled chicken. YUM!“

“Their house special noodle bowl is comfort food and it is gigantic.
I'm from the SF Bay Area and I can't get enough of their noodles.
They have the best kidneys if you're into that.
They make their own chili sauce in house.
The service is great and they come often to fill your tea cups and remove emptied plates.
This small restaurant is highly recommended.“

“My wife and I found this gem of a place for lunch and we were very surprised with the quality. We arrived shortly after their opening hours and there were already plenty of diners inside. Service is quick, and staff is friendly as well.

We ordered their Pad Thai, Wonton Soup, and their Cream Cheese Rangoons to share. All 3 dishes came out at the same time, and wow the portions are pretty standard and fulfilling.

Cream Cheese Rangoons are not something I try often but I was very impressed with the quality and size. Each bite was super crunchy and super flavorful with the cream cheese adding the softness, very impressed. Highly recommend, 9/10.

The wonton soup (BBQ pork) was impressive. Although not like the standard ones, the portions are still pretty good. I was impressed with the flavoring as well. The broth wasn't too salty and the wontons were delicious. Highly recommend, 8.5/10.

Star of the show is definitely the Pad Thai. A classic dish at any Thai establishment and this place is no different. We were very impressed with the portions and the mix of egg noodles along with the other ingredients. Very flavorful and definitely a signature of the restaurant. Must order menu item, 10/10.

Overall, a wonderful restaurant with friendly and efficient staff. Interior is clean, spacious, and has plenty of tables. Very impressed with the food so my wife and I are definitely coming back another time to try other menu items.“

“Tried this place during a lunch business trip. I ordered the beef with rice noodle bowl, it was very good and super filling. Not too salty at all. We also ordered a beef rice roll, you roll them yourself. The lettuce had some old parts but there was plenty so it's fine. Overall the portions are very reasonable and the beef was good, not much fat. I'd definitely come here again if in the area.“

“The clay pots are the best I've eaten in San Gabriel valley; like Hong Kong style. Hot crispy rice to soak with hot water (飯蕉). Prices are reason and restaurant is very clean and stylish. I eat here often, very good value.“

“Lunch, Dinner, Midnight Snack, The Menu Gives A Few Hundred Choices Of The Finest Dining.“

“Food and service was very good! A good variety of dishes on the menu. The prices weren't bad, and you get a lot of food! I would definitely go here again!“

“Their mutton kebabs are big and delicious. They are indeed grilled over charcoal. I especially recommend leek egg shrimp dumplings and fat lamb waist. They are so delicious that I forgot to take a photo. Next time, I can order them by phone first. You don't have to wait until you arrive at the store and you can eat it directly!“
