Noodles near Lakewood, CA

“I shall Thai my best, to find something good for lunch

Occupying the former location of Hanako, we've dined at the second previous tenant of this address, prior to Hanako. I've been meaning to come by Pudtarn Thai Cuisine because I'm a huge fan of Thai food, and Lunch Specials are an affordable option. This day seemed just the moment to try another local Thai restaurant for takeout.

Lunch Special Pad Thai-
Choice of protein (beef + $1, shrimp + $2), with rice, salad & egg roll. Oh, how have I missed pad Thai. Pudtarn's version hit the spot for my Thai food fix. Had the perfect amount of sour to sweet. Portions were generous, too.

Chicken satay-
Five tender, succulent sticks of chicken, served with creamy peanut sauce. Great accompaniment to the noodles, the pieces of chicken were delicious, especially when smothered in the sauce.

Service was good. A good amount of seating inside, the wait for takeout wasn't too long, since I was the first customer of the day. Parking can be somewhat difficult to come by, as some spaces are designated for the business in front of them. Hard to find on it's own, Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is located west of the car wash on the corner of Bloomfield & Centralia.

Pudtarn Thai Cuisine is a solid Thai eatery, and I'm definitely looking forward to visiting, again, in the near future. Their lunch specials are affordable, and provide an ample amount of food. Pudtarn Thai Cuisine has earned their spot in my food rotation list.“

“Tonkotsu ramen was good! The broth was tasty and the chashu wasn’t over cooked. The fried calamari was also good. Will order again!“

“Having forgotten to request hot sauce for my meal, I revisited the cashier to make the request, but found the employee busy on TikTok. She handed me two packets of hot sauce, but when I asked for an additional one, she was too preoccupied with her phone to accommodate my request.“

“very tasty chicken. great customer service. highly recommend. prices good as well.“

“Had such a great meal at MIAN Artesia. If you enjoy authentic Sichuan food with bold flavors and handmade noodles, this place is definitely worth visiting.

We ordered a variety of dishes and everything was packed with flavor. The Signature Spicy Beef Noodles had a rich and numbing broth with tender beef and perfectly chewy noodles. The Dan Dan Noodles were savory, nutty, and had just the right amount of spice.

One of my favorite dishes was the Mung Bean Jelly Noodles in Chili Sauce — refreshing, slippery, and perfect for warm weather. The Sichuan Popcorn Chicken was crispy and flavorful with fragrant chili seasoning, and the mustard sauce paired really well with it.

We also tried the Chicken Cutlet Donburi, which came with crispy chicken over rice and a fried egg, plus the Chili Oil Chicken and House Special Lamb, both full of bold Sichuan spices and great flavor.

For dessert, the Sakura Milk Pudding was soft, creamy, and beautifully presented. The drinks were also refreshing, especially the Orange Passion Fruit Iced Tea and the Lychee Cup with jelly and boba.

Overall, the food was flavorful, authentic, and satisfying. Great atmosphere, delicious noodles, and definitely one of my favorite Sichuan spots in the area.“

“"Thai District is a culinary gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was absolutely amazing, bursting with authentic Thai flavors that transported us to Thailand. Scott, our server, went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was exceptional. Not only did he provide impeccable service, but he also shared interesting tidbits about the area, like the length of the actual “Long Beach” in Long Beach, adding a delightful personal touch to our evening. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. Five stars all around for Thai District!"“

“number one place to eat.“

“Genuine Japanese Ramen with rich Miso taste. No other ramen shops serve this taste and only one in SoCal. It’s worth to spend your time to go to this place if you are Ramen Lover! Now they start serving Shio-Ramen (Clear Salt base soup) with Truffle oil flavor. This one is very good, too!“

“Let me just start off by saying the service here it’s outstanding!! It was my first time trying ramen and the cashier was very friendly and helped me with choosing my first meal. The food was very tasty and fresh! I will definitely come back again!“

“Thank you so much to the staff!

We arrived during the last 25 minutes before closing, and we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. The staff took the time to explain the menu and help us with our choices

Thank you again for such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back earlier next time 😊🫶“

“I really like the service that I got there they really care about their customers and I do really appreciate that a hole lot . Thank you for awesome service and great food .“

“Pad See Ew is delicious! 🤤 their Thai tea is great too!!!“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“Food is great! I love eating here“

“We had Shrimp Scampi and Steak Pesto Cavatappi...I was snacking so I just got potstickers. Everything was very hot and flavorful. Our counter girl was very nice and helpfully accommodating. Even my iced tea was extra refreshing and satisfying. Huge entrée portions and quaint little outside patio for dining. Great place bring your appetite.“

“The Best Thai Food in Long Beach 🏖 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“amazing food and service! My husband and I used to live nearby and always came when it was Tai Silk. We now live in San Pedro but we'll be back for sure.“

“A Yelp Elite event brought me to this cool little boutique restaurant. It has a simple, industrial style decor, with a few large garage style doors that open up and make the space feel bigger and more open.

The staff and service were good everyone was nice and friendly. We did not have a reservation and waited no more than five minutes to be seated (around 630p on a Saturday), but it quickly filled after we arrived. It seats only about 50 diners.

Food, we ordered a fresh green salad, chicken wings and duck egg rolls fir appetizers, snd Owl Fried Rice, and crab with Thai chili and basil as shareable entrees. I had a beer with my meal, and my wife had the sangria.

The kitchen flow/timing was a bit off. After our order was taken, we waited about 15 - 20 minutes before the first appetizer came out. As we worked through the appetizers, the Owl Fried Rice arrived. About halfway through the rice, I realized I never got my beer and had to ask for it (I think it was forgotten). We were nearly done with the rice and still hadn’t received the crab dish, so I asked the waitress about it. She looked surprised and said she’d check on it. About 5–10 minutes later, the crab dish finally came out. My wife's second sangria was comped due to this error.

Let's talk about the food:

Green salad – Good and fresh. Did exactly what a salad should do.

Wings – Excellent. Well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Three wings - portion was smaller than typical, as this was part of the Yelp comp. A normal app is 5 wings.

Duck egg rolls – Great flavor, but the wrapper was a little thick and dense.

Owl Fried Rice – Really good overall. The curry flavor comes through strong in a good way. My only issue was that there was just one shrimp in the whole dish. Maybe go lighter on the pineapple and add more shrimp.

Crab with Thai chili and basil – Excellent. The flavors and preparation were on point.

Despite the delays, this was still a pleasant experience. I’ll definitely return and would recommend checking this place out. If the weather’s nice, I suggest grabbing a patio seat (there are only nine).“

“I came here with my friend and we accidentally ordered to go instead of dine-in, but the server brought us bowls with hot broth and was very nice! We ordered the wontons, brisket pho, and fried rice and everything was delicious :) Plenty of seating and friendly service.“

“nice and fresh and clean 👌#1 service good customer service!“

“My 2nd visit here so far. Fell in love with the Pad Thai. 1st visit had the Pad Thai & Japanese Pan Noodles. Today ordered 2 Pad Thai & Spicy Korean Beef Noodle. Will be coming more oftenly to try other items on the menu being as loyal regular customer Great location with. spacious hip atmosphere dining with outdoor dining patio out front of restaurant and very generous friendly staffs. I would recommend this restaurant to everybody who's into Italian pasta's, Asian noodles, variety's of salads & soups giving 5 stars out of 5 stars.“

“Absolutely fantastic! Love the atmosphere! Courteous and professional staff! Awesome menu selections! Yummy Cambodian cuisine! I wish we have a restaurant like this in Lake Forest👍“

“We come here every week. Today a server went outside and publicly accused me in front of my family and guests of not paying. This was absolutely embarrassing and offered a terrible apology for the incident as we did pay already. Great food but today was a terrible experience.“

“Tang was exactly what we were craving after a night out. The portions were generous, and the side dishes complemented the meal well. Since the soups already include rice noodles, I skipped out on the extra rice.

We ordered the soondae guk and the galbi tang. The galbi was rich and flavorful. The highlight of the meal was the soondae (blood sausage). The texture was different, filled with a mixture of pork blood and noodles.

Overall, it was a great dining experience and a perfect choice for a morning comfort meal. Definitely a spot worth returning to.“

“One of the best pho places around! I’ve gotten the salt and pepper wings, shaking beef, and mixed pho bowl. Everything is always fresh and tasty. I only do reviews for exceptional places and this is one of them. I drive out of my way to come here after pickleball sometimes. Great service and even better food.“

“Consistent food quality and portions. Clean and the tables have enough space to order multiple things (unlike Yard House). I live near here so I walk and for that reason I know the parking situation is not the restaurants fault. It's very difficult to find parking so I recommend carpooling. The broths have plenty of flavor, the meat is not thin. I recommend for parties up to 4 since the restaurant usually has people dining in. Overall I hope this restaurant survives the economy since it's worth wanting a restaurant experience.“

“I love everything about Chowking . From Siopao, mami, wanton soup and desserts and drinks. Halo halo, buchi buchi, taho, and so much more. Feels like you’re in pinas.👍🥰“

“Broth is great Staff is very helpful & Vibe is great 8.5“

“All the food is cooked fresh. The veggie soup had a light, classic flavor that I know and love. The family style bean curd/tofu had a nice flavor and texture. Rice is included and there is chili sauce and chili oil to spice up your food. The service was good, the lady there is so nice and stays busy.“

“Amazing authentic Ramen. Service and food was excellent. My new favorite in Lombard!“

“I absolutely love, love, loooooove this family friendly jewel. Starting with the food first ?, there is an abundance of everything even if it's a plate order for one person. The broth is clean, the ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the flavors do NOT stop with mmmmmm?. Your meal experience, will result in you leaving with a happy and full belly. I've even seen some family that brought children, with excitement for the food here and kids can be picky. The service is quick, communication is clear, and the restaurant team is friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The staff, all work really hard together, to keep their customers consistently happy. They go above and beyond here, to make sure your experience is a full and comfortably wholesome one. The atmosphere is unforgettably clean like their pho broth?, there is more than enough space to keep to yourself or enjoy your company in your own bubble together with your meals. They also have outside seating, for those who prefer fresh air to themselves. I would NOT sleep on this place, if I were you. Plenty of parking, and walking distance to public transportation for those who are not personally mobile. I highly recommend this place, to anyone looking for tasty and clean pho options.“

“Always busy. Order before 9 but server kind enough to let us know in nice way. Grill, pho, rice all good. Lot is small and sometimes hard to park. Otherwise all good. Solid service. Clean restrooms. Haven’t been back for 8 years and glad it’s still here post pandemic.“

“Food was so yummy! Had the chicken pho and edamame.“

“Listen listen listen !! Cambodian woman here came from Boston mass came across this place looking for spicy food in the area on a work a trip And let me tell you !!!! I have never came across a place that offered salty crab in the papaya salad ! I fell in love instantly! Keep doing what yall doing cause you’re doing it absolutely correct ! ♥️♥️♥️♥️🥹

P.s I had it all to myself and had leftovers do breakfast! A true Asain if you know you know ! Periodt !“

“Awesome place to hang out with friends and family draft beer and food are good combination 😋“

“Food: Grabbed a modest amount of fixings (i.e., veggies, seafood, meats, etc.) for my soup, which totaled out to be ~$13. Not too shabby. Opted for the beef bone broth; however, there was a taste/smell to it, reminiscent of lamb (I only got beef), which was unexpected and a bit off-putting for me.

Service: Decent. While it isn't a standard sit-down restaurant, be prepared to be charged a gratuity for a party of six or more.

Ambiance: Casual. Pretty spacious and clean, including the ingredient + sauce bar.

Parking: Ample parking, but located in a relatively busy/ high-traffic plaza, so parking could take a minute, during peak hours.“

“I ordered crispy pata the other day and when I got home the crispy pata was over fried that even the bone is burned. Very overcooked so it is very disappointing!“

“The food was amazing the broth had a really spicy flavor the noodles were perfectly cooked and all the sides tasted perfect everything felt authentic and homemade. The older lady there was incredibly sweet and welcoming she honestly reminded me of my mom with how kind and caring she was. That warm hospitality made the whole experience even better. My only wish is that there was a little more beef in the bowl, but overall everything was delicious and I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“In town for a conference and stopped in for some pho. Absolutely delicious and a friendly staff. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing lunch specials and received amazing service from Chris“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“The food was delicious! My friend recommended it and we decided to eat there for lunch. Our refreshments were served in a cute mason jar. We shared chicken egg rolls for an appetizer. My friend ordered tom yum soup with shrimp and I got Thai Boat Noodle. I am definitely going to eat there again and bring my family.“

“I always get the grilled beef cause no one has "GRILLED" beef pho that I've seen. it is really good. Only thing different this time is the meat was a tougher than it has been before. Hopefully, it is only this time cause it is usually tender.“

“We accidentally found this restaurant while on a trip in Long Beach as I was craving Thai food. We had the Baked Mussels, Tiger Wings, and Shrimp Fried Rice—all of which were fresh, flavorful, and authentic. We ended the meal with the Tiramisu and it was absolutely delicious! I would definitely come back.“

“one of the best korean food in town
the service was amazing
surrounded by older koreans ppl
we ordered two dishes and both of us are extremely full
their sidedishes were really goood
soup using ginsheng and whole chicken, heart warming
i love their cold noodles and kimchi“

“Beautiful restaurant. Family owned. Owner pours his heart into the dining experience. Great for dates, family event or special occasions.“

“Was working nearby looking for dinner to go. Asked if they can accommodate for gluten free, certain menu items yes(confirmed with an older woman, she was super sweet).Tom Yum Soup, Pad Thai, Pad Woon Sen, and one of the salads. AMAZING! Best Thai I've had in a decade, especially for my allergy. I will be back and will continue to order from here“

“Great food cooked with love, like you're at Grandma's house, great prices and super friendly service ❤️ I had the drunken noodle which was reality flavorful, nice and spicy and they give you a great chili oil that gave a nice smoky finish, my girlfriend got the orange chicken lunch special with vegetable soup and it was delicious, portions are generous, food came out fast, and no wait to be seated 👍 lovely restaurant with cozy wood panelled walls and somehow this is a rarity but the chairs are actually comfortable. The mango sticky rice was a great, fresh dessert that didn't feel too unhealthy or sugary“

“I stopped by and tried a few dishes. What stuck out to me was how long the food took to prepare when the place was practically empty. I overheard another table also commenting on their wait time for food. Other than that, the food was delicious and the service was fine. The restaurant is pretty old and dingy but I wasn’t expecting anything fancy, I was just there for some food to treat my homesickness.

The salaw machu kreung and the prahok sauce was really good. The frog was alright tbh, I guess I’m not used to it being prepared in that way. (It was deep fried and then stir fried with the kreung paste and veggies I believe.) It was still good, just different. I’m glad I gave them a try, gotta support the Khmer businesses 🫶🏼🇰🇭“
