“The full size beef soup is very small.
The tables are sticky which is not nice.
We were party of 3 They brought the beef soup first and after 10 minutes the chicken noodle. They need to serve all together.
What's the point??

Great workers“

“Glad to find this place. Was looking for a spot with vegan options meat options. Quite a large menu. Charming interior. Filling portions. Surprised this place doesn’t have more reviews. Across the street is also a Thai place with the word VEGAN in big letters in their signage. This place feels like it’s from the 1990s. Nice staff. The only annoying thing is it’s so far away. I’m never in this part of town. I got #100 some kind of bún dish. My meat eating bf got Pho and he said it was very good. Updated from previous review on 2026-07-09“

“I really enjoyed the food and it was not very pricey at all. Most of the plates, even the favorites at that, we’re about $15… Everything on the menu is Vegan 🙋🏽‍♂️“

“The best ramen in Culver City! I first had Ippudo in New York over a decade ago went it was arguable the top ramen spot in the entire city. Since then I’ve had it in Tokyo and now am so glad to have here in Culver. The Akamaru Modern is still as excellent and balanced a bowl as it’s always been.“

“This place hit it out of the park. I stopped in for a solo dinner while away at work. I ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen and a beer. The food was incredible, beer properly carbonated, and my server was very kind and attentive. Prices were very reasonable too. Definitely adding this place as a go-to dinner spot.“

“One of several new malatang places in the area, Bruin Bowl is not a large place, but they seem to have a solid selection of meats, veggies, noodles, and seafood despite their modest size. Both the bone broth and the chicken/fish maw soup bases are pretty tasty too. Excellent option if you're in the area.“

“BEST BOAT NOODLES ON THE WESTSIDE! I am so grateful to have a legit boat noodle spot close to me! They’re so hard to find and these are SO DELICIOUS! I also love their Venice noodles but if you love a punchy boat noodle, that is where it is at!“

“Better ask "Why is your food So Great?" A huge fan since 1987 on Sunset. I wish you were closer...to Palm Springs... when in LA I have to stop and Eat at my favorite place, ever. Please do not try the Chinese Chicken Salad....Thank you for selling your top secret dressing! People, go try the Chins! You will love everything!“

“They have the best Pho in the Reseda area. This is my go to spot since the goldfish in the front entrance.. they have really made it look nice. All their pho is delicious. Everything on the menu is amazing. They are also opened late that is a plus. Location is always busy but worth the wait. Their food is authentic tasting.“

“I was here before the new owners and the food and service was OK but not good. Ever sine the new owners took over the pho here is the best I've tasted in the valley. Service is good, clean tables, and all the ingredients are fresh. They always give you 4 limes and condiments which I love. And they don't skimp out on the napkins. I go here every Friday. Pho Phriday!“

“I sampled their famous xiao long bao, delicious dumplings, savory fried rice and garlic string beans. Each dish was a taste experience, from the delicious dumplings in broth to the perfectly seasoned fried rice. The service is great and the atmosphere is inviting. Don't miss this place for authentic Taiwanese cuisine and unforgettable flavors. It has the taste of home.“

“this place is awesome. i get the sean secret hand roll every time (baked crab, avocado, soy paper) and rotate between a couple of other rolls. this time i got the jay-lo roll and added fried onion. their fried onion is ridiculous, you have to give it a try! love kinza every time i’m out in sherman oaks.“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“Hole in the wall teriyaki place. You order at the counter, you pick up your food, you clean up your own table after eating. Easy free parking lot or street parking. They have a lunch special for $11.95 that includes chicken and rice with salad. They also have specials A, B, C and D that are around the $15 to $20 price range. I had the special C that had white rice, a big piece of chicken katsu, two pieces of chicken teriyaki, salad, two small onion rings and two dumplings for about $15.95. Not a bad value. You get a teriyaki sauce and hot sauce on the side. Their teriyaki sauce is very good here! The serving is very generous. I was not about to finish it in one sitting.“

“Fantastic food, fair prices, friendly service. Thank you, Sam and the staff, we enjoyed the food and the company. The place feels warm. The food we took to our fellows in the office got many compliments. Thank you,“

“I have been here many times and eveytime the dish of my food are the same taste and was soo good. Most i ordered are noodle and Padthai Crispy wonton that was very good and great portion.
The server with short hair was very nice and helpful and she is so friendly. For the Parkling lot is easy and plenty to park and there are some Thai supermarket near by
I will keep coming back again and try the new dish. Most noodle that i have try were great.“

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

“This place has the absolute BEST Oyakodon and curry. I know people focus on the ramen but for real, it’s the closest we’ve gotten to food in japan since we got back from our trip. INCREDIBLE and they have thai tea and milk tea that’s delicious!!“

““Had a great experience at Chowking. The food came out fresh, hot, and flavorful, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout the visit. The restaurant was clean, service was quick, and everything was well organized even during busy hours. The Halo-Halo and siopao were especially good, and the portions were satisfying. Definitely a solid spot for comfort Filipino-Chinese food in the area. Looking forward to coming back again soon!”“

“I got the lunch special for 14.50, and a strawberry iced tea. Amazing and just right amount of spice on the red curry and the salad dressing was lovely. Even had some curry and rice to look forward to as leftovers. The person at the register was super kind and genuine, asking if I enjoyed the meal. Great lunch deal, parking in the neighborhoods off the main street.“

“A Los Angeles tradition. been visiting since the 80s and they still have their mojo! delicious! Personal favorites noodles in peanut sauce and szechuan dumplings.“

“Easily my new favorite sushi spot in the 818. I only started coming here recently, but every single time it’s been a 10/10 🔥🔥 The sushi is always fresh, you can really taste the quality. The customer service is one of the best parts too everyone’s super friendly, welcoming, and always takes care of you ! The vibe is great, the hospitality never misses, and it’s one of those spots you keep wanting to come back to. Definitely recommend checking it out“

“First, I want to say that the restaurant is located in a beautiful area. Walking around the neighborhood was incredibly enjoyable and made the whole experience even better.

When it comes to the restaurant itself, I honestly don't have enough words to describe how amazing it was. I found out that the pasta is handmade rather than pre-made, and it's brought fresh from Italy every evening. That surprised me and made dining there even more special.

The pasta I ordered was prepared with white wine. The portion looked a bit small at first, but it was very filling and absolutely delicious.

I would also like to give special recognition to the manager. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, energetic, and made us feel comfortable throughout our visit. We were even treated to a delicious pasta that wasn't yet on the menu, which was such a thoughtful gesture. I will definitely come back just for that pasta!

Everything was excellent—the atmosphere, the people, the food, and the service. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

I would love to see more seafood pasta dishes added to the menu, and I can't wait to visit again.“

“I randomly found this place when I was in the area. The restaurant itself is very cute and clean. The service was superb, we got seated right away and got our water right away. We ordered the noodles, XLB and popcorn chicken and cucumber salad. The XLB was so juicy and I didn’t expect a stream to shoot out from my mouth from the first bite into the XLB. Thankfully I didn’t hit anyone with the XLB juice. I will be back to try other dishes.“

“Yummy Chinese food in the valley. Convenient location and ample parking. Ordered chicken wings, orange chicken and pan fried noodles and Thai tea. Tasted fresh and cooked well. Kind and attentive customer service. I’d come back. (Received a free Thai iced tea in exchange for the review but this is an honest review.)“

“Best Pasta in Los Angeles!🤤😋🍝🍷“

“I visited this place on 04/07/2026, and saying that I liked it would be an understatement.

The service was 100 out of 10. The waiter knew the menu very well and was able to make great recommendations. I ordered the coconut milk soup with seafood, and it was absolutely delicious. There was a lot of seafood in it, and the portion was very generous.

We also ordered chicken and drinks. Honestly, the amount of food they brought us could easily feed three people. For $49 total, it was definitely worth it.

I also want to mention the honesty and kindness of the staff. I accidentally left my AirPods at the table, and the waitress found my car in the parking lot and personally returned them to me. That really impressed me and says a lot about the level of service and care they provide.

The atmosphere was calm, pleasant, and very welcoming. I definitely recommend this place and would be happy to come back again.“

“We used to have a Paik Noodle’s in our area, and it sadly closed 😭😭. Excited to find one within driving distance. Very clean, good service, and the food was delicious!

We walked in really late but they were very hospitable and we were still able to eat in.

We ordered the jjajangmyeon, tangsuyuk, soy garlic wings, and sweet and spicy wings. Everything was delicious. You can’t go wrong.
They gave us some jjambong (soup only) as well. That was also delicious. We seriously ate it all.“

“I've been coming here for a long time, and they never disappoint. The chicken ramen is always delicious, and the fried chicken is crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, and the food is consistently excellent. One of my favorite ramen spots. Highly recommend!“

“First time excellent fresh food ..Live the appetizers“

“The Kuromayu Ramen was very good and very filling. The broth was yummy. I feared it was going to be salty but it wasn’t. The marinated egg was sooo good and the yolk was perfectly jammy. I wasn’t a big fan of the noodles but they were decent.

There is a mechanic humming sound that is quite loud and distracting. The atmosphere of the place could have been better if it was perhaps quieter. But, otherwise for a Saturday, there was no wait. The staff was very kind. The decor is nice and the place is exceptionally clean.“

“Fresh delicious food prepared to order.“

“I’ve been to Taiko various times and have always left extremely happy and satisfied! I actually celebrated my birthday dinner here. Their sushi, rolls, and sashimi are extremely fresh and well made. I am obsessed with the baked crab roll, and everyone at my birthday loved it, too! The Hamachi Kama is super nice and tasty, so is the ramen (the picture is what I served myself from my dad’s bowl, the actual dish has a very generous portion!!) My dad would also like to note that they have the COLDEST beer in town. The servers are all super nice and are always very happy to see me again. Overall it’s a great spot for either a casual dinner or to celebrate :D“

“Banh Mi branches at SM Davao and Lanang superb! Great customer service. Def my new favorite eats. Love their drinks too.“

“One of the best Thai food in the entire state. I haven’t found a spot with a selection this good in a 50 mile radius. I had five different dishes, including their Pad Thai and fried rice. They were all extremely delicious. There’s usually parking in the back and it’s totally safe. This place is a must.“

“FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!

Went here with my kid and my mom last weekend. My eyes were bigger than my stomach as I proceeded to order more food than needed. We ordered a Mapo Tofu, a Juicy Pork Dumpling, a Pork Wonton in Spicy Sauce, a Green Onion Pancake and their marquee dish, Chongqing Crispy Chicken. Without a doubt, each dish was fire, but the Pork Wonton in Spicy Sauce really blew my socks off. The flavor was on point, and it wasn't very spicy. While I like it spicy, I know a lot of people don't like it. So this dish is perfect for people who want to like it spicy, but can't quite handle it. We ordered two rices, but in retrospect we should have ordered three... The Mapo Tofu demands more rice.

The restaurant was very clean, and the staff were very polite and accomodating. For now I can honestly I have found my new favorite Chinese restaurant in the valley. I will continue to go back here any time I have a hankering for Chinese, which is not true, because I always have a hankering for Chinese. The restaurant is like 20+ minutes away from my house, so it just isn't practical, and it is a tad expensive to be doing that. I think we got out of there after tip around $90, but again, it was a lot of food, and I had enough leftovers for another lunch for two. Definitely check it out!“

“Great food and Jeff was amazing! He saw we were having a bad day and his kindness made it better.“

“Ordered Uber eats because I love the rustic spoon! I was a little disappointed with the amount of chicken in the dish that was delivered. Seem more like noodles and noodles with a sprinkling of carrots, cabbage and egg. The flavor was delicious! Maybe it was just the day. But I’m still looking for the cluck.😁“

“Found this spot while in the area. The duck noodle soup was extremely tasty. I ordered it with medium spiciness level. It was perfect. The soup has a hint of duck flavor and sweetness. It comes with bean sprout and generous portion of duck meat and vegetables. The flat noodle was nice. Venue was very clean and nicely air conditioned.“

“This is omakase as it is meant to be. The freshest fish, prepared with care, and served in a minimalist but friendly and welcoming environment. This isn’t pretentious, place to be seen sushi, and it’s not for cool points, it’s just good people making a great meal. Given the quality of fish, it’s worth the price and then some.

They stayed open late for a 1-person party and I had just the best experience. Chef Shin is a real one, and Jun gives friendly prompt service. Best miso soup I’ve had, and the menu was well considered and perfectly executed.

It’s the kind of hole in the wall that will leave your date impressed with you, not because it’s fancy, but it’s a quintessentially Japanese omakase experience. Make a reservation, thank me later.“

“A new food place!!! Really liked the pad se ew and ofc the mango sticky rice. The whole shop is ran by a sweet older lady and tastes just like a home cooked meal my mom would make me. Highly recommend. Parking can be a little annoying so I’m jealous of the people who live in the building because I would come here weekly if I was living upstairs.“

“Decent place for Pho. Service was ok. Food came out very fast, but the waitress didnt speak much English and didnt understand my questions regarding my dietary restrictions with dairy. Also she never came back to check on us to see if we needed anything. I had to wave down the manager to get a to go container.

I order the #1 pho. It was good, one of the meats I didn't care for the taste at all. The rest of the meats were really good to good. Ordered the shrimp and pork spring role. It had no flavor and didnt taste any pork at all. All I saw was shrimp. Order the taro smoothie and wanted Boba, but she said no more boba. The taro smoothing was very good.

Also the pricing I thought was very fair. Paying was a bit strange. You dont get the bill you just walk up to the cashier and hand her your credit card, you dont get handed a bill. Very weird and I highly recommend changing your paying system. It's 2025 servers should have a portable kiosk for us to tap our card or phone to pay and see our bill before paying of course.

If youre looking for a decent pho place in the area def give this place a try.“
