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.“

“This place is a hidden gem! The potato noodles were super chewy and flavorful, and the broth was rich but not too heavy. I also loved the combo deal – great value for the price. The staff were friendly and service was quick. Definitely coming back“

“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“

“Stopped in around 3PM for a late lunch and was really glad I got to try their farm fresh chicken rice. Meat was juicy with really good quality rice on the side. The best part is you can hear them chop your portion on order. The dipping sauces were garlic and spring onion, spicy and a vinegar dip - they all complement the chicken very well. This place is solid and I highly recommend to try it out if you are near the City of Industry or Puente Hills alone or with a friend.“

“This little mom-and-pop noodle shop was such a great find! We stumbled in right around 8:30 PM, just before they closed, and ended up being the last ones there.
​Their noodles were honestly delicious. I mean, my nephew, who is notoriously picky, even complimented the shrimp noodle! The dandan noodles were a touch too salty for my personal taste, but everyone else absolutely loved them.
​Even though it was late, the service was great. We never felt rushed. I'm definitely going to be coming back whenever a noodle craving hits!“

“The food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent! This has become one of our favorite pho restaurants, and it's so good that we drive all the way from Fontana just to eat here. The broth is flavorful, the ingredients are fresh, and everything is always prepared perfectly. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes every visit enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for amazing pho. It's definitely worth the drive! 🍜😊“

“Absolutely obsessed with this restaurant! It’s my go-to whenever I’m in the Walnut area and need a guaranteed delicious meal. Let’s talk about the Hainanese chicken - it’s a revelation. The texture is unbelievably tender and smooth, not a bit rubbery. You can tell it’s made with care. The chicken skin has a lovely, subtle gelatinous quality, and when you pair it with the fragrant rice and the incredible house-made chili and ginger scallion sauces… it’s just perfection. Don’t sleep on their other dishes, either. The potato noodles come in a massive, steaming clay pot with a soup base that’s both spicy and deeply flavorful. The fried buns are golden, crispy little clouds of goodness. The atmosphere is super casual and welcoming, and the staff are always friendly. Honestly, for the quality and portion size, the price is a steal. This is a true neighborhood treasure, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!“

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

“Always delicious whether ordered to go or dining in. I first discovered this restaurant on Uber Eats and enjoyed it so much I began going in person. Service is great too. Dishes I like include the curries, pad see ew, and certainly the mango sticky rice 😋 they have great lunch specials too“

“We were in the mood for some good ramen and sushi and ended up coming here after looking at the reviews and pictures. Needless to say this place was delicious and has a good variety of different options. Definitely recommend checking out the mixed tempura, soft shell crab and the spicy tonkotsu ramen. Hard such a hard time deciding on a roll but ended up going with a caterpillar roll that was very delicious and fresh. Good price and good quality for the location. Definitely coming back for more.“

“這餐廳很好吃風格很好“

“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 👍“

“I just went for my first time today, and I had to go back because it was that good! Not only is the owner super sweet but the food is so good! These are the best steam pork buns, I have ever had.
I was iffy the whole day if I should go back and get another order. I didn’t want to seem big back. But this food is truly amazing. You won a regular, he will be seeing a lot of me! Thank you so much for the great food 10 out of 10“

“First time here, had family dinner together...came to this restaurant for dumplings and noodles 🍜🍜🍜🍜 they are making dumplings right in front of window... amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩 this place was so yummy 🤤 Fried rice 🍤 🍚, Kung Pao chicken, dumplings, orange chicken we had a plethora of flavors and loved it all!!!“

“They make authentic Guilin rice noodles here. So you order the noodles through the QR code and you can get the condiments to add to the bowl. We had the Golden Broth Beef Brisket Rice Noodles and Premium Signature Noodles. Added a fried egg and Secret Recipe Braised Tofu. Quick service and would return.“

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

“Highly recommend if you love din tai fung style cuisines without waiting 2hrs and breaking your wallet.
Their dan dan noodles with rice noodles was savory, with that lovely peanut base sauce.
Their Crab & pork xiao lou bao is super delicious. Their skin is thin and the soup inside just fills your mouth. Honestly i think it's better than Din tai fung for that alone.
The beef tomato noodle was filled with thick, tender beef chunks, and the diced tomato was actually sauted with savory seasoning.
You can see many locals come here to enjoy excellent quality comfort food.
From Ordering to being served was a matter of minutes. Great for limited lunch break people!“

“Service is fast, food is good, price is fair“

“I was really hyped about this place opening to add to the variety of Korean food around Chino Hills. Soonheene is very popular in South Korea which led me to add this place to my must try list of restaurants, they're known for their amazing street food and it didn't disappoint at all.

Staff were incredibly quick, attentive, and were very friendly in all aspects. Parking is plentiful, clean restroom, and a moderate amount of seating inside the restaurant. The interior is well maintained and just has good vibes when entering, there's also a TV on the wall that plays many variety shows to express just how popular this place is in South Korea.

1. We ordered their signature Tteokbokki and it comes in a decent amount of portions, a great shareable dish and very flavorful when it comes to the mix of sauce, rice cake, and fish cake. There's also a rose version which I also recommend. The Tteokbokki were savory and also not hard to crunch on, cooked perfectly and very enjoyable and addicting.

2. Another must try item is the Mayak Gimbap, comes in 8 pieces, another shareable dish. It's also very well made, with a mix of meat and vegetables, a decent appetizer to the main course.

3. The Oden Fish Cake Soup is also a classic street food signature dish to try. Highly recommend if you're a fan of fish cake, comes in a stick form which is a easy pick-me-up type food. Not too salty and is flavorful as well.

4. The Roasted Kimchi Pork Belly was the main dish we had as a shareable. I cannot fathom how well made this dish is made. The pork belly is super savory, chewy, and flavorful, mixes well with all the side garnishes and sauces.
Overall, Soonheene is definitely a good place for many occasions, dates, take out, and moderate size groups.

Decent prices for amazing quality food. They will always be my go to spot for amazing South Korean street food.“

“A new favorite for sure! The seafood pancake is a must try!! Best one I’ve ever had. I enjoyed their selection of banchan, as they had some dishes I hadn’t tried before. The tofu soup was flavorful. Overall a great place with amazing service. Will definitely be back if I’m in the area!“

“Wow! We came here to check out the ramen wall but ended up getting some bowls off the main menu instead. Tried the beef bowl and the wing bowl with spicy noodle and lemon pepper wings -- the rice was perfectly cooked and the meats and noodles where incredible. The servings are very generous as well, we both left stuffed.

The wait wasn't too bad considering everything was cooked fresh but apparently there's an order ahead option if you don't want to wait as long. They were playing good music and the noise level was such that we could hear each other but didn't feel like everyone was listening to our conversation.“

“I’ve spent most of my life in the San Fernando Valley, where there are more places to eat than I could ever count. So when I find myself driving back to the same restaurant two or three times a week, that says something.

Ginkgo Chinese Restaurant has become one of those places for me. The food is consistently good, the service is always welcoming, and after a while it starts to feel less like a restaurant and more like a familiar stop in my week.

I’m not writing this to promote the business. I simply wanted to say thank you to the people who work here. Good food brings people in the first time. Good people are what keep them coming back.

You have earned a loyal customer, and I appreciate what you do.“

“My favorite local Vietnamese restaurant. I always get their number 18 pho which is brisket and well done flank. This place is the only place around me that serves amazing food while being very affordable. Service is always welcoming and room is always filled with happy customers.“

“The food was great! Compared to most Vietnamese spots, the flavors here are a bit lighter, which was perfect for me. We came here around 11 PM and the music was pumping—so loud that you could actually feel the chairs vibrating. Between the bass and the flashing lights, the vibe is very high-energy. The younger crowd would probably love it! 🤣 Personally, it was a bit much for me, but it's definitely a unique spot for a late-night meal.“

“Mian is a great spot if you love Chinese noodles. They offer a wide variety of noodle dishes from different regions of China, so you can really taste several styles in one place. It feels unique, modern, and the restaurant stays open late, which is probably why so many young people come here.

If you’re a noodle lover, this is definitely a fun and unique place to try. The prices are affordable, and the overall quality is solid. If you live in the Rowland Heights area, it’s worth stopping by at least once to check it out.“

“Located inside 168 market. I arrived at the opening hour do service was quick. Will definitely try other things when I'm in the area. Good food and portions. Ordered 2 items- The tripe fried rice and the fried crispy tofu in peanut sauce. Cost close to $40 but the leftovers were enough for 1-2 more meals.“

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

“The stinky tofu was decent. I hadn’t had it for five years, so I was still happy to find it here. That said, it didn’t feel stinky enough or juicy enough, and the tofu texture seemed a little different from the common type I’m used to in Taiwan.

I asked for extra pickled cabbage, but it was never served, and water was not provided either.
Still, because stinky tofu is so rare to find here, I have to give full points for that. The 肉圓was also really good.“

“I like the food it was good“

“the guba umami (beef noodle soup) was really good! although i will say that even though it says mild, for me it was quite a bit spicy but that’s probably just cause I have low spice tolerance. 😅despite that though, it was so good i had to finish the entire bowl. the service was great and the guy at the counter was really nice.“

“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.“

“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.“

“So good and service is very nice 👍🏻👍🏻“

“I was in town and looking for a new place to try. Thanks to Yelp, I found Noodlemii nearby. We headed over for a weekend dinner and didn't have to wait long for our group of two.

We tried a variety of their menu items, including the black pepper udon ($12), yellow curry ($11), beef skewers ($6.50), and a Thai iced tea ($3.50). Food came out pretty timely and everything was really good! Good portion sizes too.

Bonus points for being part of the Diamond Bar Open Rewards program. Good amount of parking in a shared plaza. Will be back to try more of their noodle dishes next time!“

“I would always pass by this place when I lived in Upland a few years ago but never thought to try. We came by for an early dinner a few days ago and wow, their menu is huge! Ranging from standard vietnamese items to a few thai dishes as well. We tried a couple items and it was okay. The pho noodles were a little bit al dente and I was hoping the broth would be hotter to help soften the noodles. The lemongrass chicken vermicelli bowl was pretty good. We also tried the mango & sticky rice dessert, pretty good as well.“

“I’m not sure what 300g is in imperial units, but they should consider renaming their place to 1kg noodles because the portion sizes here are amazing. The flavor is good and authentic. Definitely worth a visit if you have can

The location is nice and clean with quick service. I got the golden noodle I forgot the name but it’s really good. Can’t want to come by again to try the rest of the items. One thing is that they have an appetizer combo deal. Worth getting just to try all the flavors. I ordered a deal and a noodle and had to bring my leftovers home. Really happy that I found this place“

“Broth in pho was very rich in flavor by far, compared to the other pho restaurants I frequent. Sister and mom also found it to be very flavorful, mom often doesn't engorge herself when we go to the others for their soups, but she finished the one here.“

“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.“

“This was such a satisfying meal from start to finish. Everything we ordered felt thoughtfully prepared and comforting without being overcomplicated.

The cucumber garlic appetizer was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly crunchy, refreshing, and packed with flavor. The pork ribs were tender, juicy, and incredibly tasty, easily a standout on the table. The pork dumplings were solid and comforting, while the simple bok choy balanced everything beautifully and complemented the richer dishes.

The beef noodle soup was super comforting and hearty, and the salt and pepper shrimp was so good — crispy, well-seasoned, and hard to stop eating. Overall, a great spot for flavorful, satisfying food that feels homey and well-executed. Definitely worth a visit.“

“Best noodles in Chino! 🍜 🙌“

“Great food, I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. Recommend“

“I was curious about this place, so I walked past it to check out their menu before heading to our fave dim sum spot in Walnut/City Of Industry (All That n Dim Sum). Sadly, they’re closed on Tuesdays. Decided to come back here since they looked busy. At first, there were plenty of seats, but when I went back, only 2 seats way in the back were open. We went with the lunch specials, and honestly, best decision ever. I got Combo D—fried chicken steak and noodle soup, plus preserved veggies. My partner had Combo C—fried pork chop with dry noodles. Both were amazing! I loved the noodle soup, but the dry noodles were just as good. Both are classic Taiwanese comfort foods and the lunch specials also come with tea! Definitely recommend this spot if you’re craving some tasty, hearty dishes!
Ambiance - a small but busy cafe feel!“

“Ayee is in the food court & you order from a kiosk. I tried the sticky rice chicken. The sticky rice is a chewy texture filled with chicken and Chinese sausage in a savory sauce cooked in a leaf. This dish was served hot & was so delicious, a must try!“

“Great food esp their Nasi Bungkus“

“Excellent service, after having the stir fry intestine dish at various Szechuan restaurants, my brother in law’s favorite, had to try it here! Def was excited to try this different region style food

Pork intestine dry pot best I’ve ever had
Yunnan style dry beef
Crispy chicken
Spicy soup with tripe intestine and blood cake forgot the name, super tasty

Sister and friend, all 3 of us LOVED everything
Def coming back!“

“Not sure why people are leaving bad reviews I’ve eaten here twice every weekend for lunch at work and have only gotten great tasting hot food that didn’t take very long to make I would say this place deserves more recognition for sure also the manager here has a professional demeanor and makes me want to come back. Overall better then the other food shops here“

“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.
