Noodles near Manhattan Beach, CA

“My wife and I ate here on a whim, and it did not disappoint. We were on a time crunch so we decided to takeout. The three cup chicken and short rib dan mein were big hits in our house. Dumplings were also excellent. We look forward to dining at the restaurant again! Keep up the good work!

Parking: Parking is more than sufficient as it is shared with the shopping plaza.“

“They have a sign in front that advertises $7 chow mein, which totally got my friend. It was definitely a heaping portion still of noodles with a good Thai chili kick. I split it into two meals still (although I probably don’t eat a lot compared to a lot of people). A bit greasy and I wish there was more veg. It was savory but not overly salty.

I felt like it was missing a little bit of nuance in its sweetness but I can’t pin what was missing. There was definitely still MSG because I was thirsty after, so that’s not what it was missing.

The free bone broth is really refreshing (reminds me of sullungtang) and a good way to either start or end your meal.“

“Best little place in town!!! So sad to see them closing, so happy I got one last fantastic meal!!!“

“The service was very friendly and accommodating, happy to adjust the order to my specifications which I always love. I was the only one at the restaurant and The order came very quickly. I ordered the vegetable pad Thai with no traditional broccoli, only Chinese broccoli and the order was correct and hot. I

am usually a 7 out of 10 on the American spicy scale so I ordered “medium spicy” and asked for extra but I didn’t need it, it was the perfect amount of spice for me so know it runs a bit higher on the scale.

The vegetables were clearly fresh and cooked to a light crunch. The flavor was there but I’m a bit of a tough crowd as I’ve been to Thailand and it’s difficult to find it’s equal. One thing, I’ve never seen the noodles orange like that, curious what made them that color.“

“Was craving soba on a Saturday morning and luckily found SOBAR. Soba made in house - 100% buckwheat, cooked to perfection. Some of the best soba I’ve ever had with strong but clean dipping sauces. Had an extra full serving of soba to polish off the dipping sauces. Service was as good if not greater than soba itself.“

“Good and delicious food…happy hour is great!“

“I’ve been struggling to find a decent Tonkatsu, but this one is among the best Ive had in the US. I’m not an expert in Japanese cuisine but I have been to Japan a few times an this place is within striking distance of the average tonkatsus I had there. I’ll be back when I’m in the area“

“蕎麦、日本食　最高 !“

“Great first experience here. The Spicy Miso Ramen was delicious and would definitely reccomend. The staff was very attentive and friendly. It’s a small local shop, so expect a potential wait at busy times, but the ample parking makes it easy to visit. Looking forward to coming back for the Josui Ramen.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed this charming, unpretentious establishment located near Venice Beach. The pasta served here is among the finest I have experienced in quite some time. The black truffle pasta, which was recommended, was truly exceptional. The owner was polite and helpful. With this spot having great pricing its a must have while your in town.🤌🏽 ps get their garlic bread you wont regret it 😋“

“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! 🍲“

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

“I definitely recommend the chocolate xiao long bao“

“Unassuming restaurant, but once you enter your welcomed with nice music and great customer service. I ordered the shrimp fried rice. It was a bit of a mushy texture, like if you cook rice a tad too long. Flavor was pretty good, Hoisin sauce was definitely needed. Overall nice place. If in area and need a quick bite. Stop here to try some dishes or the 15 dollar lunch special.“

“Best Pho place around. You know a place is going to hit when they have large sauce bottles
On the table . As soon as we stepped in we were greeted , which I appreciate considering many places leave u standing there awkwardly. The music level was on point , low enough to talk loud enough to appreciate. The staff is very kind , they give off family vibes . Food came out quickly and hot . We’ve been here several times so this review is long overdue . The pics I took before we left . Next time I’ll do a before and after not just an after ….. Two enthusiastic thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍“

“This place is legit! Every dish was delicious and flavorful. Our waitress, First, was so kind helpful. We got the veggie fried rice, tom kha soup, crying tiger beef, and sticky rice with coconut ice cream. Highly recommend, if you get the chance, come eat here. You will be happy and full!“

“If you’re looking for great pho, this Vietnamese restaurant absolutely delivers. The broth is rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced, with deep flavor that tastes like it’s been simmered for hours. The noodles were fresh, the meat was tender, and the portion size was generous. Everything came out hot and beautifully prepared, with fresh herbs that really completed the dish. Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. This is easily one of the best places around for a satisfying bowl of pho, and I’ll definitely be back again.“

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

“Yummy hotpot from here hits the spot, especially for late-night study breaks. Broth leans sour and spicy in a good way, heavy flavor, kind of addictive, like you just keep fishing for another bite. Fair price for students, portions decent, tbh works for my broke student budget. Good for one-person meals, I just ordered, ate while watching lectures, and it stayed warm. Delivery came on time, nothing spilled, packaging simple but solid. Night snack go-to in this college area, especially for heavy-flavor lovers and international students missing that kind of taste.“

“Great customer service and delicious and flavorful food“

“Food and service was excellent. Food came out quick and hot. Nice portions. We had the crispy garlic chicken which all the kids loved. For the entree, we had pad see ew, ramen and green curry. Everyone was happy with their dishes. Also very clean!“

“Phorage on Overland in Los Angeles is a great spot for a relaxed meal with a fresh take on Vietnamese cuisine. The menu has a cool mix of traditional and modern dishes that are both tasty and unique. The Pho Birria is absolutely incredible. 10/10“

“Small and cozy. Really kind attentive staff, amazing prices, and even more incredible food. Hit this spot at least once a week for lunch, bring clients and staff here regularly, always a great experience and happy belly. Every dish is spectacular. 10/10 recommend“

“The best ramen in Culver City! I first had Ippudo in New York over a decade ago went it was arguable the top ramen spot in the entire city. Since then I’ve had it in Tokyo and now am so glad to have here in Culver. The Akamaru Modern is still as excellent and balanced a bowl as it’s always been.“

“I absolutely love this place. Marugame Udon is delicious, fresh and affordable. The only thing I'd change is that it isnt comfy but guess what. Me who rarely goes tp a place with not the best seating and ambience goes with excitement. The staff is wonderful and if you go after 3 there is almost no kne there and it is my favorite time to go between the usual mealtime. No wait and ample seating. Parking and even so.e outdoor seating and a cute area for kids to play. As for the food, I always get the beef and at least one tempura sweet potato. If im splurging I load up on the shrimp tempura some gyoza and other assorted goodies. Oh and add the hard boiled egg to your Udon. I dump the leftover tempura dipping save into my bowl. I always get the large and I always have enough for the next day lunch.
If you are visiting friends or family at Little company hospital it is an easy walk across the street and you do t have to lose your parking spot.
Wonderful wonderdul place. Im an island girl and KNOW yummy UDON and Marugame Udon delivers. I love it.“

“Very good and genuine broths. Second best ramen in Alhambra. Kosuke on Main is my favorite.“

“Amazing food, the spicy seafood soup was sectacular“

“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.“

“Best Pasta in Los Angeles!🤤😋🍝🍷“

“Really good food and fast service“

“Delicious home made pasta ! Friendly staff !“

“Delicious food that keeps me coming back! My personal go tos are the salmon poke and chicken katsu bowl; I think you get the most bang for your buck getting either one of those. Chill atmosphere with a nice and varied music playlist in the background. It gets fairly busy during the 12 PM lunch rush, but nothing too crazy for an unreasonable wait time. 5/5 stars!“

“불맛 짬뽕 맛집~~“

“Shoutout to Kim who, despite a jammed dining room, dozens of pickup orders, managed to greet me warmly & expedite my takeout request (silly me, ordered in person after the theater). I had time to watch her operate as the coordinator of all the food leaving the kitchen & wow, what a job! Thank you Kim!

The food is consistently fabulous! This time the salt & pepper tofu & veggie noodles, beyond delicious!

Only heads-up. Dining room is very, very loud and too much traffic walking through, as well as delivery people crowded around waiting, so as pretty as the space is, it wouldn’t be my pick for a quiet, conversational dinner. More like a bustling food court vibe.“

“Good food. Good prices. Dry noodles good, beef noodles soup was very good noodles and average broth. Worst version of cucumber salad -- cukes were dry (!?) and sauce was boring. What I make at home is far far better. Food came up SO FAST and that was remarkable“

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

“Very good food and great customer service“

“No dress code, friendly staff and good food.“

“Food is superb, as is there fresh limeade.“

“Best Vietnamese restaurant in Torrance“

“Lots of vegan options“

“Lovely service from the waitress. She was very sweet and hospitable. This location is ideal for 2 people. There’s only one large table in the center of the restaurant. We ordered the fried rice and added chicken. We also got the pad see ew and added beef. Both dishes were flavorful and delicious. The only disappointment were the crab ragoons. I’m used to a thicker cream cheese taste with the bits of crab and these had more of a liquid-ish cheese with bell peppers. In all fairness, I personally do not like bell peppers. The ragoons do not deter me from returning. I would definitely come back.“

“I think this is the only Thai place I can bring my parents to. No major complaints from them, which is a damn near impossible feat. Will need to come back to try the specialty dishes. None of the food was too sweet, salty, or greasy. Lovely atmosphere for a dinner. Plenty of parking.

We got the Panang curry, Ka Pow fried rice, and Pad Thai“

“This is an excellent place to get restaurant quality katsu at a very reasonable price. I had the tonkatsu combo. It came with soup, cabbage salad, steamed rich, and a delicious katsu sauce. The cutlet was perfectly cooked, and the breading was light and crispy, as it should be.“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“Good ramen with several options that are not found in many places. Good taste and prices, friendly servers, sometimes parking can be limited, opened until late on Fridays. Reminds me of some of the ramen shops when I was living in Japan. A must try if you’re in LA South Bay area.“

“Lately, I’ve been very into kimbap. However, I can be pretty picky about it in terms of what’s inside. There’s sooooo many options for what kind of kimbap you want. For me, I’m really into the beef kimbap. Kimbap Paradise has the best beef kimbap, in my opinion.

The restaurant is located in Torrance, super close to my home. It’s in a busy shopping center so there’s plenty of parking. I easily just call in my order and pick it up. It’s usually ready within 10/15 mins depending on how busy they are. I never dined in, but there’s lost of seating inside to do so. If you’re not a kimbap fan, they have many other Korean dishes to choose from.“

“Honestly this is a hidden gem. The flavor of it just tastes so authentic . I reccomend you order the tempura udon with a side of gyoza.
They also have sushi and teriyaki.
They are also available through Uber eats.
You should also call maybe 20 minutes ahead before you get there. That way you won't wait long for your or to eat there.“
