Big portion of food. The taste was decent. I came on Sunday around noon, was the 6th in line, and the waiting time was about 40

I highly recommend this spot for authentic Cambodian cuisine. Our group of four didn't have to wait long and there was an iPad outside for joining the waitlist for a table. There's a variety of noodle options available. We tried the Phnom Penh Noodle Special dry and soup, Beef and Meatball Noodle, Pork Rice Porridge with fried breadstick, and ordered round bread on the side. While the round bread was too dense and hard, the meat bread had too many onions. Despite the rushed service causing a couple of mistakes, the overall experience was quite good, with fast and efficient customer service. It was very hard to find parking there so we had to park in the neighborhood.

Some friends took me to Phnom Penh Noodle Shack in Long Beach and the food was super good. There was a 10 minute wait out front ..and then we went in.. I ordered a small bowl with veggies and a huge Pork bone I had a very very nice lunch. The small bowl was Giant..but order the big one if you want...the food is like something my Grandmother would make..you can feel the Love..you can just tell right away their food comes from a Loving team of kind people. Super nice staff. I am so happy my friends took me there. You can tell them no meat and they will do it.Vegetarian options: You just tell them no meat and they will handle it. The food is super goodWheelchair accessibility: Very accessible for disabled folks. ??

Food came out quick and fast. Broth tasted homemade. Loved how tender the tendon and tripe was in the stew. Also enjoyed my large rice noodle with their house noodle. Everything tasted best with the bread stick dipped in the soup though.Only downside is getting parking as the restaurant is in a residential area. Otherwise, yum! Better than the Cerritos store.

I grew up in Long Beach and this place has always been a childhood favorite of mine and my parents. We always get the Phnom Penh house special with rice noodle, pork rice porridge house special, beef mekatang, cha quai, and nom hing. Food comes out piping hot and the flavors are delicious as I remember growing up. This place has remodeled over time and it's much better but parking wise is a bit difficult since it is a small restaurant but it's worth coming every time I'm in the area

If you want Cambodian noodles, this is the place to go. This place was packed on a Sunday early afternoon, not surprised since their hours are limited to 7a-3p. We put our names on the yelp waitlist and it was about 20 min before we were seated. The people here are all very friendly. I think it's family owned. It looks small from the outside but they actually had quite a lot of seating. They're very efficient so the turnaround time seemed pretty fast. Their menu is extensive. From noodle soups and dry noodles with soup on the side or stir-fried noodles and even rice porridge (congee), they have it all. Since it was my first time here, I opted for the #1, the Phnom Penh Special Noodle Soup, it's a pork based broth with sliced pork, ground pork, stomach, liver, and shrimp. It was fantastic. The broth was perfectly rich and the meat perfectly tender. My friend also got the #1 but as a dry noodle with the soup on the side. Apparently, when you order the dry version, you also get the bone-in pork with the soup which my friend absolutely loved. I'll have to try it next time. We also got the nom hing (round bread)...think chinese donut but with sesame seeds. This would have been with a rice porridge if we had the stomach for more food, but again, maybe next time. The restaurant is located on the corner of a busy street. There are no parking lots, just street parking, so be prepared to circle around for a while looking for an open spot in one of the local neighborhoods.

I've been wanting to try this place for years and i finally got the chance and man, this place was above expectations! Such a cute little restaurant, so it gets busy during the weekends! Also the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive! Now on to the food; My friend got the number one, noodle house soup and she absolutely loved it! The broth has such a deep and rich flavor, truly tastes like it's been boiling for hours! I got the number two, the mos special dry noodle and they give you an entire PORK BONE!!!! With the dry noodle! Same thoughts and feelings about the regular noodle soup as this one! I even took the leftovers home and ate them later and they lasted and still tasted just as good as when they did when they were fresh! (Which is hard with noodle soup believe me) everything goes perfect with their fried bread and their Cambodian coffee!

just GO. the food arrived so fast & looked absolutely delectable, that i have no photos to show y'all. this time I ate first, not my camera LOL quick & very hospitable service.. you walk in and you feel like you're dining at someone's home... i loved the experience through and through. flavors are on point, jammed packed with great ingredients & very reasonable portion sizes. tried 3 different dry noodles, the pork bone broth, stir fried noodles with beef, meat & sesame bread..... ALL , i mean ALL, were amazing. don't miss out on this gem, take the drive out here. neighborhood parking can be a pain, but it's worth it.
This place is amazing !!! I love the bread and broths. I don't think they have anything bad in their menu. The service was also fast as soon as we ordered we got our food quick.

Been going here since it was a shack. I have only had the house noodles soup out and I am always satisfied!

Great place for authentic Cambodian eats. Peaceful atmosphere and attentive staff.Good vibes and good food. And there’s a kneecap in the soup that you can bring home to your dog. AND it makes the broth delish.

It was one of my favorite noodle houses to go to in Long Beach. I really love the broth as it's clean, and they reuse the bones that they used to make it as part of the dish, which shouldn't go to waste. Super fast service, and I also love the noodles well. If you're in the area, you should stop by!

We were recommended by some friends to check out this place because we wanted to taste some authentic Khmer cuisine. We were not dissappointed one bit! We tried the Phnom Penh Special both with liquid/noodles combined and with them separted - depends on your preference. The broth was perfect and I like the light, fatty meat and the cilantro garnishes. The place was small but felt cozy. Depending on the time you go, there may be a wait. This place is not ideal if you are a large crowd and want to sit all together, unless you are fine with sitting at separate table, which we were. The service was excellent and the pricing was reasonable.Parking: Depending on where you park, you may have to walk a bit. Still, it's not that bad.
