Noodles in Garden Grove, CA

“PSA: This location is now CLOSED. They have moved to a location on Magnolia and Westminster. (Grand garden near ABC) The new location was not open today either. There wasn't a sign saying when they plan to open.

UPDATE: New location now open.“

“Pho here is great with good beef selection. Little more pricy vit you'll get good cut of beef. Specially rare. Only down side is when order to g, they are skimpy on the meet side even though I ordered size large . And it did comes with any dip sauce.“

“I cannot believe I have been eating here for five years ever since I first moved to the US. I have tried many pho places, but I still love the flavor here the meat is tender, and the broth and everything blend together in such a harmonious way. Everyone on the recycletattoo team eats here and often orders takeout for our American and Mexican tattoo clients to introduce them to what Northern Vietnamese pho tastes like. The only downside is that this long standing restaurant hasn't upgraded its space, and the herbs are a bit too wet when served, which can make it a bit difficult to invite clients over to dine in. Still, I love the taste here and hope for some improvements so we can send even more clients from our tattoo shop over.“

“We got tangsuyook and jjajangmyun. To be honest, I didn't expect too much of tangsuyook, but from my first bite, it was really really good. I would definitely go back for that. Jjajang wasnt impressive, not too bad. I just couldn't eat spicy food that day so couldnt try jjampong.
The lady working in the front is very pleasant, and she went around passing around aprons to people wearing light colored clothes!“

“What a perfect hole in the wall Sushi spot. I wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of Disney. Narrowed it down to Hana out of 50 sushi restaurants. How this restaurant only has a 4.5 rating is besides me. Absolutely incredible service and food. FREE MISO SOUP!!! Yes, you read that correctly. They also have ACE if you are a big eater. There is a small alcohol serving too. The location has outdoor seating, but I didn't see anyone using it. I ordered a regular Tuna roll as part of dinner, and it came with the rice on the out. It was perfectly fresh and delicious. I asked if the Chef can do Tuna Maki as off the menu, and he pulled through! I cant say enough good things. 5 Stars all the way. I hope I can return.
Tip: Parking is limited.

PS: Yes, the Miso soup really is free, and its really good.“

“Great food. I'll definitely be back!“

“I am not local to the OC. But this place had been on my Saved place for a while. As I was passing through to another appointment, I was on a time crunch. There was a significant wait, but the folks at the restaurant heard me and tried to make things work. Otherwise I was going to order a take out. So they get a plus for service. The food was good too. I really liked the different noodle options. Though the flavor was not as rich as I had thought they'd be. But it is still pretty ok.“

“Today is my second time coming to this place. What I like the most is that their food is fresh they make it right when you order it. We got orange chicken, Kung Pao, and crispy noodles. Everything was really delicious, and they even gave us complimentary jasmine tea. The service and flavors are top-notch. Definitely recommend this place!
They have their own bobba place next door“

“1. The Hu Tieu is delicious and comforting! I love the veggies that came with it!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes! The interior is spacious!
3. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in about 10 mins!
Note: There is a fee for credit card charges!

“great food - variety of food to enjoy“

“The food is so authentic and savory. I love Mi Quang. I would say that is the best Mi Quang that I’ve ever tried in America. The portion is personally little small for me. They also offer free nuoc mat. But 5 stars for the restaurant and definitely recommend!“

“Love the pho at this place, I mainly get the pho tai, it's just beef pho, but it's delicious, I get it every time! Their broth is great too and they're usually open late which is nice for a late night meal, after work especially. 🙂‍↕👍“

“Been here for years! Great pho, great prices, friendly staff, clean seats, good number of parking slots. The regular bowl is filling enough for me. Goes well with the hot tea pot. Love coming here after visiting Disneyland because this place is open 24/7!“

“best pho in garden grove!!! hot soup when it comes out. fresh smell of beef. no msg added. Cleanliness 👍 inexpensive 👍 lots of meat. plus I'm from norcal bay area. that says alot“

“If you’ve ever driven by this cozy Korean spot with traditional hanok-style windows and a constant line out the door, you’ll know why I’ve been curious about Hangari Kalguksu for a while. I finally caught a quiet weekday afternoon and went in right away.

The menu comes in Korean and English, but the English side is mostly phonetic, so don’t be surprised if it doesn’t help much. I just pointed at the Korean menu and ordered their signature kalguksu ($17.99). They also offer sujebi, rice cake dumpling soup, cold noodles like buckwheat or soybean, plus classics like tteokbokki and fried snacks.

Banchan was simple yeolmu kimchi, light and refreshing. Then came the main event, a massive bowl of kalguksu, easily double the portion you’d expect, with a small side of barley rice (boribap). The broth was surprisingly clean and slightly sweet, loaded with shrimp, clams, potatoes, zucchini, and seaweed.

Pro tip: serve some noodles into your small bowl, then mix in their chili paste and sesame oil. It instantly levels up the flavor. Super comforting and honestly hard to stop eating so I ended up finishing the whole thing without realizing it.

Portions are huge, so sharing isn’t a bad idea. If you can’t finish, just ask for a to-go box.

They accept cash and Visa/Mastercard only.

Also worth noting, there’s another Hangari Kalguksu in LA (ktown) with a similar name and a more expanded menu. Not sure if they’re related, but something to keep in mind if you’re exploring different locations.“

“Good place for lunch and dinner“

“my family loves the food here. we’ve lived locally for decades and my mom and aunt both say the black bean noodles here are the best around. not to mention the huge portions at a great price point! delicious food, and it’s easy on the wallet? can’t ask for more. the woman working here is always nice and friendly too!

my personal favorites on the menu are #6 classic black bean noodle w/dried vegetable and #18 fried shrimp with chili sauce. for spice lovers, the spicy black bean noodle (#8) has a good kick to it. that one is my brother’s favorite.

today, my mom and i ate lunch here and we shared the spicy seafood noodle soup (#1) and shrimp fried rice (#11). we left full and satisfied as always :)“

“It’s great 🥰 I love itttttttttttttt“

“Food is great! The pho tai nam is the best — rich, flavorful broth and very generous portions. The beef was tender, noodles were cooked perfectly, and everything tasted fresh. One bowl is more than enough to keep you full. Service was quick and friendly, and the place felt clean and welcoming. Definitely one of my go-to spots when I’m craving good pho. Highly recommend!“

“The best bánh mì and coffee in the world. I recommend it!👏💥❤️“

“1. The chicken portion was huge, and I love the sauce that came with it! The drink was refreshing!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes! The interior is cozy!
3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! The food was ready after 10 mins!
Note: There is a 3% additional free for credit card transactions!

“Món ăn ngon, giá rẻ, đa dạng. có Dj và Piano ở friday, có đồ ăn chay. Phù hợp cho family,couple và tổ chức birthday, party!“

“I go here occasionally for Pho, the food is consistently good, service is not bad. Pho here is delicious with clear, flavorful broth and they do give plenty of meat. I also had the vermicelli with shrimp, grilled pork, and egg roll. That dish was also good, the fish sauce was blended well, and it had plenty of vegetables to balance with the carbs. Recommend you try this place out and they open late.“

“Is a good quality and authentic Vietnamese pho. The coffee is very good also.“

“Haven’t been back here for long time. Still the same decor, same folks (family members & could staff), same old goodies noodle. Easy parking since I was there early in the morning plus the parking lot is big too. The good, down to earth service by the aunt. She remembered all the regular customers, even when they didn’t show up for awhile. She asked if I want the same thing that I alway ordered l, and of course I wanted. And just like that I felt at home. A catchup on the place & family. The noodle is the same, consistency and tasted as I remembered. Somehow I got more meats than I remembered but why ask right. It was tasty and goodie. The prices didn’t change so that was great. So glad I decided to stop by for some old goodie noodle.“

“Curry is sweet! What the other reviews say is not wrong. But, it does have flavor and is not just sugar sweet 😂 and the katsu is crunchy and hot. There's not really another katsu *curry* place at this price in this area so... it gives me my fix without driving too far. Menu is also small so I don't have to spend forever figuring out what I want. To-go packaging was cute and appreciated 😁.

It would be nice if you could paste the menu to the window so I can look without going inside.“

“Randomly ended up here after taking a 3-hour road trip on a whim—to Long Beach, and then Garden Grove not much farther. Intentionally over-ordered so as to have leftovers for folks at home, but could have overeaten and finished everything as it was all so good. Got the spring rolls, crunchy and crabby and delicious, and the crab/shrimp udon, which hit the spot. Others around had plates cooking on their tables—this wasn't the case for me. Also got a jasmine green tea w/ mango jam, so as to begin the caffeination that will get me home tonight :) A 10-minute wait for seating on a Sunday evening at 6:30pm not so bad, but bears mentioning. Probably the most popular restaurant at the Mall of Fortune here.“

“The restaurant area is a bit small and you should probably reserve a table before you arrive. But if you have to wait, it's worth it. The food is delicious and very similar to that in Saigon. The only thing is that there are not many parking spaces and sometimes you have to compete with others for parking spaces.

Parking: There is free parking in front of the store, but there are too many cars and you have to compete.“

“The bun rieu/ crab vermicelli is perfect for a cold or rainy day. plenty of crab cake, a soft shell crab, oc, tofu, fresh veggie, and the flavor is always on point. They have a wide selection of drinks and my favorite is the Thai green tea with foam.“

“1. The yellow noodles were really delicious, and the special had a lot of good toppings! The drinks were refreshing!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes! The interior is open!
3. The staff was nice and quick with our orders! It was ready in about 10 mins!
Note: The menu clearly states that they will charge you $1 per water! The cashier will also clearly state that they will charge a $1 fee for card transaction!

“Nice Thai restaurant at Garden grove. We came based on yelp review when we search for thai restaurant near where we were and we came during dinner. It was not busy. We arrived around 7:30 pm. The menu is comprehensive but not overwhelming. We ordered Tom yum soup, pad kee mao,stir fry noodle and pork rib with rice. For dessert we ordered mango sticky rice.
The order was ready pretty quickly. The highlight was the porkrib and mango sticky rice. Pork rib was flavorful and tender. The sticky rice still warm which is the first time I had it warm. It was yummy.
Pad kee mao, noodle and Tom yum were good too.“
