Noodles near La Verne, CA

“Recently this place has become my hidden gem. I am absolutely obsessed with this little restaurant nestled in downtown La Verne. The food is absolutely fantastic, and the owners are criminally under charging for their generous portions and delicious food. However, I think im most impressed about how much the owners care for their customers. My sister and I went to get coffee from nambah, and we came back to wait for our food. The owner saw that we had our drinks and without even asking, included coffee biscuits/cookies in our bag to enjoy with our beverages. My sister and I were absolutely baffled at the generosity because this is the type of treatment you’d see in places abroad. But we felt totally welcomed, cared after, and most importantly viewed as people rather than customers. I have been going here once or twice a week for the past 2 months and they haven’t failed me once.“

“I just ordered take out and the food was super delicious! I’ve been looking for this kind of spicy and numbing noodles and just flavor for a long time as my students always bring me stuff like this but I can’t find it any Chinese places around. Highly recommended!!“

“I ordered their beancurd beef tripe and tomato crab paste rice noodles today. I have gotten dinner several times before and had tried their shrimp roll, hainan chicken rice. All of the dishes I tried are good. It’s pretty quiet usually when I visit this place. The most people I’ve seen are probably 3-4 tables of customers. Service is good every time and servers are very attentive and friendly.

Its more like a 4 for this place because its a place I would often come because of their food and service. I decided to give this place a 5 star instead because I want to support small businesses like these and because this place is more hidden / low key so unless you are in the area for a quick lunch, theres a less chance people would find this place.“

“Their dumplings are so flavorful and their prices are so affordable! I always order the pork xiao long baos and also recommend the pan fried pork dumplings, any of the wonton dishes, and the cucumber salad! Out of their dessert buns I like their sesame buns the best, then the sweet custard, then the red bean. I don't order them as much because I get too full on savory dumplings, but really recommend getting them if you have room.

They usually don't have any music playing, but the foos comes out so fast that I don't mind the silence in the restaurant, which is only the case when no other patrons are seated.

Xiao Long Bao - so juicy, so flavorful, perfect amount of filling. I love these so much and they are definitely my favorite dish from here! 10/10

Pan Fried Pork Dumplings - very juicy for a pan fried dumpling, but somehow still so crispy! 9.5/10

Wonton Soup - I prefer their wonton soup over their spicy ones because it's much more flavorful with the broth! 9/10

Dan Dan Noodles - so flavorful, packed with meat, great sharing dish! I always order it if I'm eating with 3+ others 9/10

Cucumber Salad - Love how the cucumbers aren't too vinegar tasting as I don't enjoy pickle flavors much, but definitely add some soy sauce and chili oil to make the dish even tastier 8.5/10

Spicy Wontons - I wish there was more flavor added than just spicy for their spicy wontons, and their not as spicy as I would like 8/10“

“Ordered the wonton noodle soup with medium spice level. The spice level was quite high, medium was plenty for me. Broth was flavorful, and the noodles and wontons were good. Portion size was good for the price. It definitely fulfilled my craving for a hot soup on a cold day.“

“You can see the boss's persistence and attentiveness everywhere: from the water cup to the button instructions for hot and cold water; from the cleanliness of the toilet to the placement of paper towels; the store is really clean, the materials and seats of the dining tables and chairs... …marvelous“

“I got Tteok-bokki to go at this establishment a few weeks ago. The inside is very nicely arranged and clean. The music playing was great.
The Tteok-bokki was very good. The rice cakes were chewy and spicy but not overbearingly spicy. They had just the right amount of flavor.
Overall I'd recommend this place.“

“We’ve been coming here since their soft opening and it has quickly become a family staple. We are always greeted when we walk in, and the owner always manages to stop and say hello. The xiao long bao and chili oil wontons are a must try, but they have so many other dishes to offer. Not to mention, the portion sizes are enough to enjoy with your group. I love that my kids love it. If you’re ever wanting to try somewhere new, I definitely recommend going. They have a customer for life! 😊“

“The food is very delicious, the restaurant is very beautiful, there is a lot of parking. Importantly all of the chefs are beautiful“

“The food here is so delicious! The boba was chewy and the tea flavors are so so yummy (recommend the osmanthus oolong milk tea). Their chili wontons are also amazing and the fry on the popcorn chicken/sweet potato fries is perfect. I also love their dry noodle dishes!“

“Today I came here for dinner, it’s a Thursday night -and I ordered:shrimp tempura, catfish stir fry, white rice, and a glass of wine. Everything was delicious!!!

The owner, “lady Aey” helped me with part of my order and she asked if I’d been to Thailand because I liked spicy and asked for the fish sauce- I think I was sounding very sure of what I wanted :) I told her that coincidentally, I was going to Thailand this summer. We exchanged what’s apps and she said she’d help me to plan a great trip.

It did feel like family- she called herself Thai lady Aey, and I am black lady Renee- I’m part of the family now- thanks Thai Family :)“

“The food is amazing and even more importantly the staff was so incredibly helpful and friendly. I would go there just for the staff!“

“I've tried Hainan chicken all my life, and this one is special. Portions are very generous. The chicken is very tender and cooked to perfection. The rice is incredible even it's just rice. But they Cook the rice in a way that's not very greasy like other places. Kind of dry and tasty.
We also tried the potato noodles since it's highly rated with other reviews. We ended up taking to go since it was just too much food for 2 is us.
Be careful online shows Xin Wang restaurant but the actual sign in front says Ana Wang Hainan Chicken. But it is the same. Don't know why.
Not too many pictures here to take since they're all over online already. Anyhow, great food, simple dining experience. Nothing fancy. You definitely should give it a try.“

“Came here after a round of golf. The owner was very nice and welcoming. She answered all my questions well. I got the garlic noodles and wings and added a drink and fries.

The garlic noodles and wings were great. I really enjoyed the flavor of both. The garlic noodles had plenty of garlic. I got it spicy and enjoyed the type of spice that it came with. The wings were well seasoned and very large. After frequenting Wingstop, their quality had drastically dropped in quality and size. I found it nice that the wings here were fantastic. I ordered the Soy Garlic and the Korean Spicy. The fries were also great. They had a great crunch to them and taste.

Overall, I enjoyed all of the food, but enjoyed the spicy garlic noodles even more so. I noticed that they also had a ramen setup with different korean ramens. The owner also recommended the dirty fries that comes with different types of fixings. I'll definitely come back to try those the next time.

You can park inside the parking structure and walk over conveniently.“

“Very good Ramen. The noodles were my favorite part. Many places just don't get the texture right, but this place nailed it. The flavor of the broth was also good. Tasted exactly like the description. I am coming back to try the other flavors soon!“

“This place is incredible. Everything I ordered was amazing; the fish/shellfish was fresh and cooked perfectly when applicable, the sauces were great, and the portions and pricing are beyond reasonable. I’ll definitely be coming here frequently.“

“A certified Diamond Bar classic. Everything is solid here, from the pho, to the rice plates and appetizers. The pricing is reasonable (expect to spend in the low 10's per person) and portions are good sized. They have two TV's in the case you wanted to catch a basketball game or football game as you eat. Would recommend if you're in the area, but would not be a place you drive out for.“

“You really can't make a bad choice with any dish you select here. We tried the House Special, and the spring rolls are absolutely essential. My son is a big fan of the Ban Mi with grilled pork, and we also enjoyed the charbroiled pork vermicelli with egg rolls. Every dish was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. We will definitely be back for more. Plus, the best part is that they offer a discount when you pay in cash!“

“這餐廳很好吃風格很好“

“Oh my god. Best asian food I’ve ever had. We got the chicken chili dumplings and shrimp and pork chili dumplings (amazing), beef & broccoli (perfect amount of beef to broccoli ratio), orange chicken (perfectly fried pieces) & the hot & spicy fried rice, (best I’ve ever had). And the server Will was to the point and quick. This is our new go to take out/asian food spot.“

“This family-owned business usually never disappoints. We love the veggie pho because the broth is vegetable based, not chicken stock. The vegetables are always cooked to perfection and the portions are decent. On our last dining experience, we ordered the vegetable dumplings which came out very quickly. At first bite, I realized they were not vegetable but some kind of meat. While the place was busy, we couldn't find anyone to flag down fast enough before they delivered the correct order because the first one was chicken dumplings. Other than that, it's a good place for yummy food at good prices.“

“We discovered this local gem and decided to try it. They did not disappoint. Their noodle had a good chew/texture in the beef brisket noodle soup. Sesame noodles had good flavor and adequate amount of sauce. The XLB was flavorful and juicy and same with the pork pot sticker. Garlic bok choy also well good along with the popcorn chicken. We had a great experience and would recommend this place to anyone looking authentic noodles and dumpling in the area.“

“麵爽，云呑好味，丸子夠料“

“I love spicy food and Ginkgo has the best delicious, spicy Chinese Sichuan food in our area.
The Sichuan Boiled Fish was especially memorable as the fish was fresh and tender. Must try!
Stir Fried Scallion Beef and Mapo Tofu were my kids’ favorite dishes.
We have been here many times and love everything we have tried so far.
The staff was super friendly!
Overall, the delicious food, impeccable service, and cozy ambiance made for a wonderful dining experience here.

“Situated inside of 168 Chinese supermarkets with its own set of clean seats and tables. The stir fried thin rice noodles were good, as were the fried stuffed tofu. This is a good place to taste some basic Indonesian dishes besides nasi gorings.“

“BEST sushi ever! So fresh and noticeably better/fresher than other sushi. Loved the blue fin Mmm👅 Chill atmosphere. Perfect place, fast service too with plenty of options. They can make it anyway you want it 👍“

“Yum! Affordable Taiwanese food in Rowland!!! $10.50 Cold Noodles is a must!! $13.99 for beef noodle soup, $8.99 Pork rice, $7.99 Boiled A Vegetable and other appetizers. Located down the walkway between the plaza's main buildings. No restroom. The Food District restroom was closed too when we visited. Takes credit card if order $25min. OG place with sticky tables, and such.

I'm not a fan of the Arcadia location. This location is way better. Everything was okay and mostly decent. And for the prices offered, I'd call it pretty amazing. There's tons of other Taiwanese shops around too. Competition is tough out here. We haven't tried other Taiwanese food around. Also we haven't really been around this area in years.

Orders out if the Popular section:
$8.99 Mushroom Sliced Pork Rice with Egg. This wasn't for me. It's okay. Kinda like the arcadia location. Its okay if you're buying a cheap meal.

$12.50 Pork Intestine Wrap Sausage. Not really what we expected. It's alot not sausage slices. Sausage has qq skin as expected but we probably wouldn't order this again.

$10.50 Cold Noodles is a MUST!! It was tasty and refreshing. I like that the sauce isn't thick like other places me. It doesn't remind me of Taiwan!

$8.99 Stinky Tofu had crispy skin and cabbage. If you add their chili oil with it, it's decent. I wouldn't eat this without the chili oil.

Snack section
$7.99 Boiled A Vegetable is simple. Great for ppl like me who enjoys A vegetable anytime. If you're particular about the qq/cooked precisely, this wonh be for you. But I'll order this again.

$7.50 Marinated Seaweed is decent. They have a good amount.

$13.99 Beef Stew Tendon Noodle (half meat and half tendon).
Broth was super flavorful. To some delicate Taiwanese eaters, it could be just a tad just more salty than expected. Meat was tender and tendon was soft. We'd order this again.

Overall, the cold noodles is a must. And the whole menu is priced well.“

“You guys, the broth is amazing. It's so full of flavor. Everything we ordered was delicious The Bánh Mi was divine! The prices are better than other places. Go! You won't regret it. My face is full of joy from the meal! 😊 Yum!
Two sandwiches, two Pho and two drinks for $50. That's a great deal.“

“Ordered house noodle, Hainan chicken, fried fish cake, and lamb skewers. The pickled vegetables was as perfect as it comes and was provided generously and consumed in its entirety. Did not disappoint. First visit ever. Will be back to try everything on the menu. Yes, it is that good.“

“Clean, friendly & attentive staff, lots of options for ingredients, good classic bone soup, tomato soup, mushroom soup but my favorite is the stir-fried spicy wok (麻辣香鍋)🌶️🌶️🌶️, so much that I’ve been coming here weekly.“

“My son’s and I favorite place for Ramen.“

“Good food, casual, great location and convenient.“

“Excellent food and superb service. I give them a 10/10!!!“

“MIAN is such a great spot! We got the pork rib noodle soup and pork dumplings, and both were really good. The ribs were super tender, the broth had great flavor without being too greasy, and I love that they pack the noodles and soup separately so the noodles don’t get soggy. The dumplings were juicy and the sweet/spicy dipping sauce was spot on—not too spicy for the kids either.

The place is clean and chill, and the service was quick and friendly. Prices are super reasonable, which is always a win when eating out with the family.

Overall, it’s an easy, tasty meal that everyone enjoyed. We’ll definitely be coming back and recommend it to friends and family.“

“We always come here! I recommend the Orange Peel chicken. Fast service and fresh food. They always make the food when you order and use everything fresh. I haven't had a bad experience here at all and the food is always top notch. Definitely a common spot for me and my family.“

“Pilaf and yogurt are good. The noodles mixed with cucumber and oily pork are delicious! The noodles are as good as those eaten locally in Xinjiang. The vegetables are made with good ingredients and fried just right. The slivers are chewy and chewy. The portion is a bit too small and you have to pay for extra noodles. The mutton kebabs were just so-so. The service attitude is very good, I will come again. Overall, it is a very good Xinjiang style restaurant?

“Have been coming here since the 80s, always have Excellent sushi 🤟👊👊“

“Great food esp their Nasi Bungkus“

“I have been to Monja since my high school time. It is a very convenient place to eat quick and nice food. They have the best noodles and the best fried salted chicken. Their taste is exactly Taiwan style. It is also a good place to hang out with classmates and friends there to chat and play games. I love this place!“

“I love this place. I'm so glad we found it. The broth in the pho is so flavorful. Had me go back twice in one weekend lol the man who i assume is the owner is such a sweetheart and always has such a welcoming smile when you walk in. Definitely recommend this place.“

“The restaurant lives up to its name. Upon entering the front door there’s a sign: Loud music 9-midnight. Reminded me of Hanoi. The food is delicious and well portioned. The service is quick and there’s pride in presentation. You can see the cooks and servers concentrating on their work. There’s a rhythm to the night. Will return and introduce to other friends to visit a corner of Hanoi in Claremont.“

“Friday 8/9/24 Dinner at Golden Noodle & Grill in Rowland Heights. I’ve ordered #38 Roasted chicken on tomato rice. It is so crispy outside flavorful and tender inside; so delicious. This restaurant is a hidden gem which makes delicious Vietnamese foods with reasonable prices.

Long, service staff, was friendly and attentive to customers.

Van Huynh, restaurant owner & chef, has a great personality and cooks delicious Vietnamese foods. Dishes includes pho, broken rice, vermicelli, Chinese noodle soup, chow fun & mein, congee, Banh mi, Vietnamese deserts, milk shakes, and smoothies; all at a reasonable price. She took her time to greet me and even strike a pose for a photo which is posted on her Google map restaurant. Thank you Van!

The restaurant has nice decorations, clean, well lit, and well air conditioned on this warm day.

I recommend trying out this restaurant.

“So this place replaced the location for breadfish, and I heard of the name before. They have very similar menu items but a lot more variety. I got a chance to try their crispy chicken over rice. The chicken was really good wish it was just a little bit more crispy but since I had it ToGo it might be a factor of moisture. The tofu and the egg is really good here with marinated in Taiwanese spices. Overall the food is exactly what I expected and it more than enough for one person. Would definitely recommend trying!“
