Noodles near Lomita, CA

“This is really a very small restaurant that specializes in Thai food. There were not many customers when we visited that night, so the environment was quite quiet. Since I was very hungry after work, I ordered more dishes. I personally liked their crab fried rice. It was not too salty or inexplicably sweet, but the Tom Yum Goong noodle soup was of a lower standard and didn't taste like Tom Yum soup at all. What’s a little surprising is that the quality of the desserts they serve is actually very good. Sticky Rice Mango is my favorite dessert. Although the mango is not sweet enough, I am still willing to give it high marks. The fried banana with coconut ice cream just won my wife's appreciation.“

“This is one of the better ramen and bar in Torrance. Their ramen bowl portion is quite large and I see ladies packing half their ramen home. Also a good deal is their lunch special that allows you to add a side dish that is a small entree. I had fried aji fish which was nicely done. They have happy hour drinks after 8pm. Looks like head chef is Japanese. They have a lot of condiments and spices for your noodles on the table. Service is nice and quick.

Parking: Plenty

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s on the ground floor“

“Food and slushies are all Bomb 💣🍜🍚 definitely excited to go back and try more!!!“

“Nice local spot for the area, pho soup is properly seasoned and tasty. They do have pretty much all the pho types with the various meat options and same with the rice combos. I did notice a lot of people ordering the beef rib pho which I'll try next time. Egg rolls were very greasy tho, that's the only gripe.“

“This is authentic Japanese! I had their Curry udon and it was amazing. It was served super hot(not spicy) just the way I like my noodles. Came with a small salad and those rice things(yummy). 20 bucks for the meal, Not bad at all.

Not their fault but people kept walking in and leaving the door wide open and creating a cold draft. I would recommend attaching a spring or someway to automatically shut the door.

**Update, I went back. This time I got the chicken katsu curry and I was not disappointed. It was a lot of food and came with sashimi, cold ramen, and even 2 slices of roll. I think this is turning into my go to spot.“

“I’ve had pho in about 6 different states. This was the best I’ve ever had! Bravo! You guys deserve it! Thanks for letting us visit! 🍲“

“Excellent food, great service! I have a severe gluten allergy and was able to choose from almost anything on the menu which is extremely rare!

Dietary restrictions: Almost everything gluten free. Lots of vegetarian options as well.

Parking: Parking lot behind building with a couple spots.“

“The food is was too DIE for!! First time coming here and it won’t be the last. If you’re looking for a taste of Japan this is the place. The staff was so kind and made sure to help us out. Everything was just such a nice experience, do recommend for anyone in the area.“

“The curry is very good and not too heavy or salt. It goes very well with the poached egg and beef nikutama was very flavorful with the onions. The tempura was very soft and flaky. I've been here a couple times and loved getting the dashi broth and miso udon along with other tempura items available like the shrimp or zucchini.

There's a fair amount of seating along with outdoor seating. Plenty of parking available in the plaza with other restaurants there. The staff was nice and attentive to the items you wanted.“

“"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!"“

“I'm in town for an event and we were looking for a place open to eat. We found this place and it is a gem! I ordered a Jasmine tea & Pho Nam (brisket). It was SO good! One of the best bowls of pho I've had in quite some time. The broth was perfectly flavored and the meat was good as well. My tea also tasted great without any sweetner added to it. My friend ordered a bun combo with a side soup and also said it was very good. We ordered and got our food pretty quickly. The server was friendly and very attentive. The pricing was also very good for the portions you get. I paid for our teas & both meals and it came out to $34+tip. If I'm ever back in town, I would definitely eat here again!“

“I definitely recommend the chocolate xiao long bao“

“Extremely nice family restaurant. Their curries are very tasty and they are so welcoming, I will long remember how nice they were with us and will come back anytime I am in this neighborhood. Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

Parking: Huge parking“

“Very good food and great customer service“

“I love Padthai and Chicken satay which reminds me of Thailand. You guys need to try! I also like stirred fried eggplant with fried tofu. It kinda Chinese food. It’s very nice as well.“

“Best Vietnamese restaurant in Torrance“

“i absolutely love this place. The owners are super sweet and the food is DDDEEELLISSHH!“

“As a Chinese Korean whose parents had a jja jjang myun place in Korea and whose family friends were the Dragon restaurant owners, this is the most authentic and traditional jja jjang myun and jjang pong I've had in a long time. Jin Ja Roo!“

“We love this place. They have many different choices of ramen. The servings are Huge !! I would recommend this place to Everyone.“

“Small ramen place among several Japanese businesses in Torrance.
We were a family of 4. 2 kids and us parents all of us are vegan.
We ordered vegan gyoza and the 2 vegan ramen they had. The food is great even if the vegan options were limited.
The service felt rushed and the lady who attended us was curt/rude. We had to ask for bowls, cutlery, napkins and everything else.
The other lady was nicer.“

“Really good food and fast service“

“For the main course, I went with the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen, and it did not disappoint. The broth was rich, creamy, and packed with umami, while the spice level gave it a nice kick without overpowering the deep pork flavor. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the chashu was tender and flavorful.

I also tried the pork bowl and salmon bowl, and both were solid choices. The pork bowl had juicy, well-seasoned pork over fluffy rice, making for a comforting bite every time. The salmon bowl stood out with its fresh, high-quality salmon that melted in my mouth.

The service was friendly and efficient, and the overall vibe of the restaurant was welcoming. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for ramen lovers and anyone craving a great Japanese meal!“

“It’s a small restaurant but good quality. The food is delicious & has right Vietnamese taste. For you guys who like soupy food, you should try mì Quảng or different types of bún, not just Phở. My bf is a big fan of bánh mì (Vietnamese baguette). He said this restaurant would be in his top 3 Viet bánh mì.
The price here is so affordable. You’ll be surprised like “What?? In LA, with this price, are you kidding me?”. But dont forget to take cash with you. They’re good old fashioned Viet restaurant you should try.“

“蕎麦、日本食　最高 !“

“Indoor👍🏼👍🏼we opted for it but was surprised when they ushered us to the back portion of the restaurant. It makes you feel like you really are in an authentic Japanese Izakaya restaurant.“

“Some of the best Thai food I've ever had. We split two dishes. The flavor was solid on both, but definitely indulge in their hot sauces because it elevates everything from great to phenomenal. Would honestly eat here everyday if I lived nearby.“

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

“This is my first visit. This is a Chinese restaurant where you can eat lobster. In America, it's pretty much like eating lobster in a Chinese restaurant. The lobster here is sold by weight, so be careful. They have chicken made in the style of Peking duck, and it comes with 3 different parts and seasonings. I changed it up and it was quite delicious.The portions here are large, so it's a restaurant for 4 people or more.
It was delicious thank you very much“

“Just moved here and came across this place and it is hands down amazing! Love the jajangmyeon and sweet and sour pork. Spot on and hits the spot. Service was great! The waitress was very friendly and accomodating. Wish I took a pic of the food to post but it looked so good we ate it so fast haha

Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. Even gave my son chopstick trainers?“

“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 superb, as is there fresh limeade.“

“Service was excellent very friendly and beautiful view. Food was awesome.“

“It is the perfect place for even a mildly cold day. The ramen is absolutely delectable and so rich in flavor. I got the fried chicken curry ramen, and it was so good! The portion size was perfect and filling. There was more than enough chicken brought with the dish, and everything balanced so well. My friend and I split some takoyaki and the pork buns, and both were delicious. I look forward to visiting again!

Parking in the area can be difficult, as it's only paid street parking. On the bright side, the street parking is free after 6:00 pm.“

“Incredible food and relaxed atmosphere. The aunties running the place were wonderful, the food came out promptly and without a single flaw in sight.

We'll definitely be coming back, and recommending it to all our friends.“

“I loved the selection of meat in their combo pho. The brisket was super tender and fatty the way that I like it. Also, I don’t know if there’s something unique about their Sriracha, but it’s really fragrant and floral which really enhances the experience. I’d definitely come back here. It really hit the spot“

“The Service Is Wonderful The Staff Is Also Helpful Thai Barbeque Food Was Wonderful Jasmine Rice Was Also Wonderful As Well Two Refills Of Sprite Soda Drink Too Wow I Would Love To Go Again Very Soon Thanks I Give Sirinat Thai Five Stars From Alexander“

“This location is always busy. However, they can always manage regardless of situation. Quelly, the counter person is very accommodating, she even suggested the right order for the family. They always wear a smile. The whole crew were happy during our stay in the dining. They also gave us coupon for the next visit. Thank you, Chowking!“

“Amazing beef hot and sour soup Somlaw Ma-Ju Kreung Sach Ko- beef tripe, lemon grass, vegetable, garlic, kaffir lime leaves, tamarind, complex seasoning, just the right sourness and texture! Egg rolls was just okay. Spring roll ran out :(

Would like to try the beef lamb, eggplant Thai style, beef satay sticks and papaya salad next time. Close at 2:30 am which was a huge relief since we drove to Hyatt Regency Long Beach which was 7 minutes away.“

“Warning, this place is addicting. :) That’s all i can say. God Fire for the win.“

“Me & the wifey wanted to randomly select a ramen spot we had both not checked out to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary.
A pretty good choice for the tastes were on point and quite delicious for our Ramen cravings.

Wifey got their Signature Tonkatsu Ramen with wood ear mushroom, corn and a side of garlic butter for the both of us to share.
I got the same thing without the fungus among us and corn. However I got it spicy and boy let me tell you it was quite spicy, Got me perspiring and gasping. Don't get me wrong it was well worth it for the flavor taste buds kicked in overdrive and lead me into pure Ramen ? joy.
I had to eat the Ramen at a slow pace which gave me time to enjoy every slurp and chew.

If you love spicy like I do, go ahead and get it spicy. If this level of spicy was hot, I don't wanna know what the 'Super spicy' level is all about.

Oh yeah we did get an order of their 'Lolipop' chicken which was really crispy and delightful. Not quite the Karaage as it may seem. Traditional Karaage has more ginger kick than this one, however it's still a great appetizer which comes with a nice spicy plum sauce for dipping and a small mini spring salad.

Service was decent, the restaurant was clean and organized.
I'm not quite sure if I'd come back to this one, however it was a pleasant surprise and I enjoyed being out with my wife.“

“Love their Garlic pepper im so addicted to that dish“

“I had an amazing experience at this family-owned Japanese restaurant! The chicken bowl I ordered was incredible. The meat was perfectly cooked, savory, and juicy. You can tell they put a lot of care into their dishes. The cozy, welcoming atmosphere made the meal even better. I can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu!“

“I wanted something warm, hot, and comforting so galbi tang it was. Came out in less than 10 min bubbling and delicious. Meat fell off the bone although they did include a pair of kitchen shears to help. The included banchan was tasty but I could use a bit more kimchi.“

“Melt-in-your-mouth food! Exactly what we were looking to have.“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“I am glad because there are not many places around here that serve good Pho.
The soup is light but very tasty with just the right amount of salt.

It took about 15 minutes to be served.

No alcoholic beverages are sold.

Will visit again.“

“Quint Japanese restaurant that’s been there forever, hidden in the Southeast corner of a strip mall. If you weren’t looking for this restaurant, you’d miss it.
The katsu jyuu (pork cutlet covered with scrambled egg and oinion) combo is their Monday special (different Mon-Fri). Comes with either hot/cold soba or udon. Very tasty and flavorful. Worth a try.“

“불맛 짬뽕 맛집~~“

“The Dragonfly Thai is a local takeout/ eat -in establishment. Hubby and I ordered two different dishes. His was flavorful and well-received (Thai Kung Pao). Mine, Pad Thai with tofu, was rather bland and I needed to keep adding additional sauces to enhance the noodles. I ordered extra vegetables (paid extra) - and frankly it was hard to see what were the extra veggies and which were the ones that came with the dish. The staff were very kind and business was busy. I would go back - but not order the Pad Thai.“
