Noodles near El Segundo, CA

“Excellent Japanese food. I got takeout: the Gindara Saikyoyaki Bento. It was delightful. Excellent service.

I'm going to have to come back because it's a lovely spot, and I want to actually sit and enjoy in the establishment next time.

Highly recommend. And El Segundo is a very pleasant, calm downtown to visit if you're waiting around for a flight, like I was. It can be fun to go up to Venice where all the excitement is, but I'm grateful that I had a nice calm afternoon in El Segundo this time. And my fantastic supper here was part of it.“

“Extremely nice family restaurant. Their curries are very tasty and they are so welcoming, I will long remember how nice they were with us and will come back anytime I am in this neighborhood. Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

Parking: Huge parking“

“Reviews are mixed, but my experience was alright and Id give 3.8/5. The pho broth is on the sweeter side and had a lot of flavor, which I liked. The egg rolls were probably precooked or sitting under a heat lamp since it came out literally a minute after ordering. The noodles in the pho were pre-cooked and one big clump, but I was able to give it a few stirs, and it was good to go.

Overall atmosphere is dated. It's old style mom and pop. There was a worker in there playing a game or watching a drama on his phone with the speaker at max volume, so it was so distracting and annoying. Very rude to customers trying to dine.

Service was good. Orders taken promptly, and the grandma came over to check up and refill waters.“

“It is super delicious Chinese food. the owner, they are all traditional Chinese. The food is great.

I continuously come in three days. All the different foods. They are really great. And my kids love it.

We finish all the food. “

“Good and delicious food…happy hour is great!“

“So fresh, clean, and fulfilling! The food here is great, you can really taste the quality... but it’s definitely on the overpriced side.

The space is a bit small, but the wait times were short (10 minutes), so it wasn’t an issue.

The staff were super lovely, with such happy, welcoming energy that made the whole atmosphere feel really good.“

“Good food and fast service.“

“Best little place in town!!! So sad to see them closing, so happy I got one last fantastic meal!!!“

“Venice Noodles is a little Chinse/Thai place that has some of the best food in town. It is not huge, but it is always clean and fun. We usually have it delivered. They are fast or we do pick up. They will even deliver to your hotel.

The prices are reasonable and if there is anything wrong with your delivery order they will make it right, straight away and be very nice about it. Just once, and we order a lot, there was an issue with raisins in the rice. We ordered it without. Believe it or not my dog loves their rice, no one else', just Venice Noodles so we get her an order. Raisins can and will kill a dog. The order had raisins and they fixed it all up so fast. They were so nice about it. Now we order from there a lot, so often that I don't recall how many times and this is the only time we had an issue. Ever other order we place is perfect, hot and delicious.

They have some of the best noodle dishes. Any will be great for you. We also love their dumplings and their Venice Chicken Slice. You will not find this elsewhere. It is marinated chicken fried in a tortilla, slices and served with a great sauce. Their Thai Pork jerky is a must try. It is deep fried pork strips with the best chili on it and again, a great sauce.

Whatever you get you will love.“

“The curry is very good and not too heavy or salt. It goes very well with the poached egg and beef nikutama was very flavorful with the onions. The tempura was very soft and flaky. I've been here a couple times and loved getting the dashi broth and miso udon along with other tempura items available like the shrimp or zucchini.

There's a fair amount of seating along with outdoor seating. Plenty of parking available in the plaza with other restaurants there. The staff was nice and attentive to the items you wanted.“

“Clean, simple decor and friendly service. Was pleasantly surprised by the lunch special offered and ordered the spicy Yuzu Miso Ramen (at the server's suggestion) with a 3pc side of takoyaki. So happy with the choice!

The takoyaki wasn't drowned in mayo, the sauce was perfectly balanced, and it was genuinely some of the best I've tried in LA.

The ramen! Wow. The noodles were perfect to me. They had a good bite to them and they didn't try to slither out of my chopsticks while en route to my mouth. The meat was incredibly tender and slightly fatty, but not greasy. The broth wasn't overly salty or spicy and had a refreshing yuzu taste that didn't overwhelm the creamy miso flavor. My SIL pointed out how fresh the bamboo shoots tasted as they didn't have that vinegary tang to them that canned ones did.

I finished my bowl (something I can rarely manage) and didn't have the uncomfortable heavy feeling I've had with other miso-based ramen.

I can't wait to go back for the dinner hour and try patio dining

Kid-friendliness: It's small and quiet sit-down

Wheelchair accessibility: It's on the 1st floor,“

“I’ve had pho in about 6 different states. This was the best I’ve ever had! Bravo! You guys deserve it! Thanks for letting us visit! 🍲“

“Their Gukbap is superb felt like it was different version of gukbap more spicy and different broth compared to a traditional pork based creamy broth

My friend had their cold noodles and said it was lowkey mid so not sure what’s going on there… so eat the gukbap instead. Their Jeon is great and Mandoo is great too“

“Awesome food , they’ve got great teriyaki bowls too!“

“The thick pork bone and fish soup has a deep umami flavor and a slightly smoky taste which is unique. A very good experience.“

“🚨 New in Koreatown! 🚨
Say hello to Jjamppong Zizon (짬뽕 지존 LA), the hottest import straight from South Korea with over 100 locations—and now one right here in LA! 🔥

🌶 Spice Level Goals: From a mild 30% heat to a fiery 100%, there’s a level for everyone. Not into spice? No problem—they’ve got non-spicy options too! Pro tip: their proprietary red pepper flakes (brought directly from Korea) are at every table, so you can customize the heat to your liking.

🍜 What We Tried:
• Jjamppong (spicy seafood soup): Choose noodles, rice, sujebi (hand-pulled dough), or tofu! I went for tofu, and let me tell you—the velvety texture with the seafood broth is chef’s kiss.
• Jjajjangmyun (black bean noodles): Perfectly chewy noodles coated in a light, savory sauce. Add a sprinkle of those red pepper flakes for a flavor upgrade.
• Tang Siu Yuk (sweet & sour pork): Delicate batter, bold pineapple-sweet sauce, and juicy pork. A must-try!
• Fried Dumplings: Crispy perfection. Mix soy sauce, vinegar, and a pinch of red pepper flakes for an unforgettable dipping sauce.
• Shrimp Fried Rice Combo: Comes with a bowl of jjamppong soup and jjajjangmyun sauce—because why choose when you can have both?

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Jjamppong Zizon redefines Korean-style Chinese food with dishes that are light, clean, and full of flavor. No food coma, just satisfaction.

📣 Pro Tips:
✔️ They validate parking! 🅿️
✔️ Hair ties at every table = no distractions between you and your food.“

“I recently tried Kyoto Paitan Ramen last week and Curry Ramen this week at this spot. The Kyoto Paitan Ramen was good, but I was really impressed by the Curry Ramen. It wasn’t very spicy, but it was packed with flavor. I prefer thicker noodles, so I’d love to see that option next time. Overall, a great experience!“

“I definitely recommend the chocolate xiao long bao“

“We stopped for dinner and glad we did. The service was great only had a couple people at tables. We ordered massamun curry, yellow curry, green curry, pad see-ew, spring rolls, fried wontons, and tom-kha. It was all wonderful and seasoned perfectly. Would definitely come back again. When you spend $100 or more you get a free item (shirt, fanny pack, wallet).“

“A must. So delicious. Can't wait to go back!! Thank goodness for friends that share food stories. �“

“This is really a very small restaurant that specializes in Thai food. There were not many customers when we visited that night, so the environment was quite quiet. Since I was very hungry after work, I ordered more dishes. I personally liked their crab fried rice. It was not too salty or inexplicably sweet, but the Tom Yum Goong noodle soup was of a lower standard and didn't taste like Tom Yum soup at all. What’s a little surprising is that the quality of the desserts they serve is actually very good. Sticky Rice Mango is my favorite dessert. Although the mango is not sweet enough, I am still willing to give it high marks. The fried banana with coconut ice cream just won my wife's appreciation.“

“Small ramen place among several Japanese businesses in Torrance.
We were a family of 4. 2 kids and us parents all of us are vegan.
We ordered vegan gyoza and the 2 vegan ramen they had. The food is great even if the vegan options were limited.
The service felt rushed and the lady who attended us was curt/rude. We had to ask for bowls, cutlery, napkins and everything else.
The other lady was nicer.“

“The Pho is enough for 2 people and it's delicious! We have had both the chicken and the Wagu beef. Also, the rice plates with fried rice and either Wagu beef or spicy pork is really good. We get one of each (Pho and rice plate) and share. We are quite full and satisfied when we finish! And the prices are very reasonable.“

“The food is was too DIE for!! First time coming here and it won’t be the last. If you’re looking for a taste of Japan this is the place. The staff was so kind and made sure to help us out. Everything was just such a nice experience, do recommend for anyone in the area.“

“My brother and I went to Pho Hoan Pasteur with high expectations as they had high ratings on Yelp.
He ordered the regular sized steak and tendon pho. He found one piece of tendon in the entire bowl, so he was disappointed. The taste of the pho broth was just OK... not the best, nor the worst he's ever had.
I had the grilled shrimp bun and it came with two egg rolls. I was disappointed as rice noodles were all broken. It felt as though the bowl was filled with the rice noodle scraps at the bottom of the bag. The fish sauce wasn't remarkable either. I added lime juice and samba.
We tried it. We probably won't return.“

“On vacation with friends, we decided to stop here to eat. Firstly, we appreciated the contact with the staff, who were adorable and attentive to us from the first seconds. We ordered two spaghetti carbonara (special) and it was delicious!!!! At the end of the meal, the manager took the time to chat lightly with us. This restaurant is flawless. Both for the welcome and the taste! Thank you“

“The thick pork bone and fish soup has a deep umami flavor and a slightly smoky taste which is unique. A very good experience.“

“I like this place about the food is wonderful“

“I'm in town for an event and we were looking for a place open to eat. We found this place and it is a gem! I ordered a Jasmine tea & Pho Nam (brisket). It was SO good! One of the best bowls of pho I've had in quite some time. The broth was perfectly flavored and the meat was good as well. My tea also tasted great without any sweetner added to it. My friend ordered a bun combo with a side soup and also said it was very good. We ordered and got our food pretty quickly. The server was friendly and very attentive. The pricing was also very good for the portions you get. I paid for our teas & both meals and it came out to $34+tip. If I'm ever back in town, I would definitely eat here again!“

“One of the best Jajangmyeon I've ever had!Jajangmyeon is a Korean-Chinese dish of thick noodles covered in a rich, fermented black bean sauce and served with vegetables and pork. The savory, salty, and slightly sweet dish is a cultural icon in Korea, often associated with childhood memories and special occasions. The noodles are made fresh which makes it extra special. The Chicken in Spicy Garlic sauce is a perfect accompaniment with it's tangy crunchy chewy spicy taste! This is the type of place that
will be your go to for Korean Chinese dishes! Nothing fancy on inside but super clean and super friendly staff!“

“Great customer service and delicious and flavorful food“

“i absolutely love this place. The owners are super sweet and the food is DDDEEELLISSHH!“

“Just pass the long queue in din tai fung and come to this restaurant. You won’t regret. Xiaolonngbao is good and at standard price. Beef fried noodles is superb. The spicy ox tail soup is a must try and basically it’s the broth of Taiwanese beef noodles. Service is excellent!“

“Very good food and great customer service“

“WHY DID YOU DROP THE CRISPY SKIN CHICKEN!? This has always been one of our favorite restaurants in LA, easily among the top 5 fried chicken dishes in the city. It was recently replaced with a chicken katsu, and I don’t understand why. Please come to your senses and bring back LA’s finest chicken. Ditto the cumin lamb.“

“Came for lunch alone, it was fairly busy around 12:00 to 1:00 pm and got a table. Order the combo dumplings along with fried pork cutlets. The Dumplings were ok, nothing to specials, Loved the pork cutlet comes with barbeque sauce, small salad, and dark rice. The server was nice and polite even though there was a language barrier we managed to easily commuincate. I'll order from here again, but take out only.“

“Very good and genuine broths. Second best ramen in Alhambra. Kosuke on Main is my favorite.“

“Best Vietnamese restaurant in Torrance“

“Delicious home made pasta ! Friendly staff !“

“We love this place. They have many different choices of ramen. The servings are Huge !! I would recommend this place to Everyone.“

“Best Pasta in Los Angeles!🤤😋🍝🍷“

“2024.10
The customer service was very good! The server was kind, polite, and had a wonderful smile.
However, the taste of the food is extremely ordinary? and there is nothing wrong with it...
It tastes like home cooking in a good way.
The rice flour noodles and chili oil on the table were very delicious.“

“If you want authentic Korean food where the customers are all old school, Korean, this is the spot! Their kimchi is off the charge if you want fresh homemade kimchi. The dumplings are so juicy and delicious, each bite is a mouthful of dumpling inners.“

“Super great experience!! Love it here:)“

“Delicious 👌 the greatest meal at Korea town LA“

“Some of the best Thai food I've ever had. We split two dishes. The flavor was solid on both, but definitely indulge in their hot sauces because it elevates everything from great to phenomenal. Would honestly eat here everyday if I lived nearby.“

“Really good food and fast service“

“蕎麦、日本食　最高 !“

“I have driven by this place several times and it doesn’t look like much on the outside but I had a good feeling about it.
As soon as, we walked in the Aroma of the kitchen was Amazing!! Plenty of “pick up orders” on the countertop! Menu had lots of options. Pho and spring rolls +peanut sauce and flavors did not fail super yummy!
Customers were eating happily just like us. Service was great and attentive. Returning soon !“
