Had ordered noodles a week ago and they were good. Ordered the same today and it was off. Asked for refund and dean(owner) denied refund. Will not be coming back. How can an owner refuse refund because their food tasted different.

Yummy yummy!! Wanted something quick but delicious and wasn't familiar with the area so I turned to Yelp and was fortunately satisfied! I ordered the beef pad see ew, chicken pepper rice w/ fried egg and chicken and basil egg rolls! Everything came out quick and so flavorful. Would definitely be returning here if I ever visit the area again.

Dean noodles used to be good when they located inside the 168 market. After moved to current location, I have been there several times. I (we-my family) have felt their dishes were declining, regards to the flavors, the ingredients and the portions. We decided to put the restaurant on our "No" list since 2 years ago. Last Friday, my family ordered stuffs from next door-Hugo. I thought to give Dean another chance. So, I ordered "Supreme Pad Thai". I don't know what can I describe my disappointment. My family said " you have said you wouldn't go back to Dean for a long time, why you went back?" There were 2 shrimps and ground meat. A very small portions of bean sprouts and purple cabbage. After mixing, these 2 veges were disappeared in the noodle. All I could see is vermicelli with ground meat. I wondered how they call this dish as "Supreme". Anyway, after this experience, I for sure will not go back.

Food at Dean noodle is great. Having a vegan diet makes selection scarce from time to time, but they can accommodate. Ask for options without meat or other byproducts, and rest assured that they will help.

Beautiful space, delicious food. I had no idea from the outside that i was about to enter something alike an old hindu/european space. I took one star from service because they refuse to scramble my egg but i didn't miss much since the food i ended up ordering was simply perfect.

Get the Supreme Pad Thai!❤️ Then you'll know why it's so popular!? Really like the warm, casual atmosphere. The place has eclectic, coffeehouse feel with an abundance of green plants. Definitely going back.

I should have taken photos of the food but children devoured everything so quickly! Food: I ordered the chicken stay for my twins (their favorite) and I was pleasantly surprised at how large the chicken skewers are. Other Thai places I've been to are small in comparison. Normally each twin has two, however with our order from Dean noodles we had left overs because of the large portion size. My daughter loves the chicken coconut soup, and love adding fried rice inside the soup. Most Thai places, and I do mean the majority, don't offer side of fried rice they tend to make you buy an entire plate to order. Not dean noodles! They provided me with a large side of fried rice just the way my daughter wanted it. Thank you for that! Everything tastes great, I'll continue to use this Thai place as my main to go now. The price is right and the quality of food is great. The timing is on point and they take orders hours ahead of time. Location: on the right of Colima Blvd headed east, across from the puente hills mall, in a plaza with other foodie spots. Some construction in the marking lot makes parking somewhat awkward but not difficult as they are in a large parking lot. Restaurant: once you arrive you immediately get an at home going to grandmas house type of vibe. Sooo many beautiful plants everywhere, inside and out. There's a table and seating outside, and several tables and chairs inside. The decor is lovely and I love the greenery.

This place has terrible service! Staff was super slow to take my order. Then when they did, he totally forgot the apps (2), so I never received them. When my entree finally arrived, is was really oily and just so so. With so many good restaurants in the area, I would skip this one and find something better.

First time trying this place. I was very pleased with my meal. We ordered soup, fried rice, and noodles. I will not attempt to butcher the names of the dishes we had. I was also very impressed to see that their menu had an allergy chart. Having children with tree nut allergies was always challenging when eating out. Big kudos to this place for offering a chart with listed ingredients as precautions. The food was very tasty. Not overpowering with spices, yet all the dishes had a lot of flavor. I would definitely recommend this place!

Tonight was the night that the Wife and I decided to make it a drive around and see what's new, different, and definitely something we haven't tried yet night, and we found this place.First walking in, we saw the display of plants and vegetation, the old display cases of knick knacks and the wall, full of hanging knick knack, first impression was cluttery. After getting past the vegetation, the dining area opens up to a long corridor of more tables and booths. When you get a chance to really look around, you don't see the clutter anymore, but you start to see character in and around you. Seeing the antique furnitures actually was very charming and nostalgic.Staffers were very nice, friendly and attentive, the dining area was clean. As for the food, we were pleasantly happy with our choices.Chicken noodle - 4/5, Flat rice noodle, top with gravy, with chicken, green onion, cilantro, bean sprouts and egg. Didn't look like the picture in the menu, as the chunks of eggs shown in the picture were actually scrambled into small bits in the gravy. Good dish, good flavor, just a tad salty, but doable.Curry gravy noodles - 4/5, Flat rice noodle, top with ground beef in a curry sauce, simmered with onions and tomatoes. Another good flavored dish, but again a bit on the salty side.Overall, we were happy of our pick of this restaurant, something different, something new, and we'll be happy to come back again, to try something else in the menu. 4 out of 5 stars from me.
