Noodles in Monterey Park, CA

“Absolutely wonderful local neighborhood restaurant.
I order blind and I've always been satisfied.
Not just satisfied, but gratified!
In other words, you can't go wrong!
Good people, great food!
It's like Thai, but different. And very good.“

“Everything we had here was fantastic! I loved the mango iced tea because it actually tastes like mangos, the chicken was nice and crunchy on the outside, juice and delicious on the inside. We also had xiao baos and their dry noodles with peanut butter sauce which were both fantastic! I would recommend against getting their devils hot sauce unless you have like an amazing spice tolerance! I thought my spice tolerance was fine because i can handle tapatio and valentina easily but this sauce left me chugging my drink and feeling the chili under my tongue for hours!“

“First time every eating in a restaurant on a styrafoam plate, but it didn't take away from my meal. Tried out their noodles with beef and I found it to be quite tasty with the sauce. Small simple little place, tempted to return for their breakfast and evening specials“

“12/27/2019 鮮🦐腸粉加🥚 & 菜乾咸排骨瑤柱花生粥. 好吃,😋價錢合理 🤗👍“

“The food was delicious and very affordable! We really enjoyed the Crossing Bridge Noodles and the cold tofu skin salad — fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The portion size was generous too.

However, the restaurant could be a bit cleaner. The bathroom, in particular, wasn’t well maintained, which slightly took away from the overall dining experience.

That said, we’ll still come back for the food — just hope they improve the cleanliness!“

“very good noddles .and service very respectfully.“

“I enjoyed this place a lot. It was a little bit hard to find at first, as it is located above the supermarket. The server was very friendly, helping me to find a good vegetarian option. The cold sesame noodles were tasty and refreshing, and the price is not bad ($8.99). The dining area is spacious and comfortable.“

“This place is unassuming, but then they sucker punch you with HANDS DOWN the BEST WONTON NOODLES EVER. I have yet to eat more perfect wonton noodles with dumplings. The broth is simple and clean and delicious and the dumplings are amazinngggg as well. I have gotten multiple dishes here and have had the most awesome taste bud adventures.

If you're not a noodle person (le gasp), you can't go wrong with the curry and the hainan chicken. I don't know how they do it. The food is rich in flavor but I don't feel greasy or anything after eating it. I guess it's just super fresh ingredients, homemade, and skillfully cooked food. Try it to believe it!!“

“Great spot for noodles! They are Lanzhou style with 7 different varieties to choose from! This restaurant is located in Atlantic Times Square. There is underground parking that can be accessed on Atlantic or Hellman. If entering from Atlantic, take the upstairs ramp. The restaurant is very close to AMC. (You can park downstairs, but you will need to find the stairs to walk up.)

I do like the N2 braised beef noodle soup, N5 lamb noodle soup, and N4 spicy beef noodle soup. I love the flat noodles! I tried the beef rolls $12.99, but it's such a small portion. The ones at 101 Noodle Express are better (and they have a good green sauce too).

Service is good.

Credit card/Apple Pay accepted. Bathroom is available in the back.“

“The food and services are excellent. We eat here every time we visit!“

“I just came across this place by chance and got interested in ‘rice noodles’ and never had any dish from Guilin before. I was pleasantly surprised to find a gems of cuisine! The owners are super-friendly and especially generous condiment booth much more so than any restaurants I’d seen. Plus the price is super economical. Because of such pleasant personalities and exceptional services of the owner couple, it makes the ambiance so unique and very cozy to dine in. Not to mention the taste of the dish is great! I love the chewy round rice noodles that seems to be hand-made. It reminds me of simple noodles made laboriously I encountered in a remote village in Laos where they called it ‘Khao Pun’ made fro slightly fermented rice that was pounded, steam and pounded again so the texture is soft but chewy. It came in delicious meat sauce. I got pork belly and beef ribs. I was surprised that beef ribs were debone making it very pleasant to eat. This place is a rare find and I’ll be back to try other dishes again“

“I saw a IG reel about this place, so a few friends and I flew down to LA for a day trip to try this place out and of course to explore LA! The bun bo hue here was amazing! My friend even commented on how they could see the bottom of my bowl and asked if I need to order another! 😆

Their BBH isn't very spicy, but they give you chili oil in a little to-go cup. The extra chili oil really gave it an extra kick that it needed! There was also a ton of meat in the bowl also. It was a little disappointing that the pig knuckle was really thinly sliced. I was able to finish the knuckle in two bites. The two pieces of blood jelly had a nice bounce to it.

I'm not totally sure if there is a parking lot because I just parked on the street out front of the store.“

“Absolutely loved the meal here! One of the highlights was the fish soup, warm, flavorful, and incredibly comforting. The broth had the perfect balance of sourness and umami, with tender fish slices, soft tofu, and just the right amount of herbs and chili to bring everything together. If you’re looking for authentic and satisfying Chinese comfort food, this place is a must try. Can’t wait to come back!“

“It's hard to find vegetarian/vegan Chinese food options, so this place has become a staple for me. We usually get the deep fried sesame chicken, pineapple fried rice, and some type of vegetable. They are all delicious and filling, we always have left overs! I drive from Torrance just to come here.“

“Their chow fun with gravy was super good. I preferred that over my soup dish, but my partner loved the soup and noodles! Wait was like 20 min on a weekend and the inside is small and packed. Food comes out quick; just wave the servers down and write your name on the board when you line up.“

“Had the pork-mushroom rice lunch special and some fried pork dumplings. It made for a very delicious lunch and tasted like something I would eat in a Chinese home with some fragrant tastes. Would recommend eating here while waiting for the next door laundry!“

“Love it here! I stopped by for a thai tea & it blew me away! It was absolutely delicious & the flavor was so good. The customer service was really good, they were very attentive & kind. Menu is full of a variety of Vietnamese cuisine & prices are fair! Definitely recommend.“

“This spot is my favored. I eat in many restaurants but to this restaurant I constantly return again and again. The team is very cordial and the cooking they offer is so appetizing. I would always prefer to have a decent dinner here. Highly recommended.“

“It ‘s so Yammy and health food!“

“Visited Ten Seconds Yunnan Rice Noodle for the first time this weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The restaurant is located in the plaza on the corner of Atlantic and Garvey, with plenty of parking.

The menu is simple and straight forward. You start by choosing the desired soup base (bone broth, tomato, hot & sour, spicy) and then the protein offered under your desired soup base. If you wish to order additional toppings; there is a list of add-on you can pick from. The restaurant gives you the option to order using the QR code taped on the table or with the staff member. Soon after placing the order, they bring out the toppings to the dish, which consists of your desired meat, lettuce, generous portion of rice noodles, tofu, ham, green onion, seaweed, wood ear mushroom, corn, egg, etc. Lastly the soup base is served and you add the add all the toppings to your soup.

I ordered the tomato soup with sliced brisket; love the strong tomato flavor in the broth. If you are a tomato lover, this is the soup base to order.

Will definitely be coming back to try the other soup bases.“

“The Daikokuya ramen is soo delicious and very filling.“

“Best buns and dumplings in Southern California. They make wonders with flour and pork. They also don’t speak English, so I normally just point at the menu. Nothing is bad on the menu except the seafood. If you get something fried, try to dine in to get the texture right. If you get fennel buns, make sure you like the taste of fennel because there’s nothing subtle about that one. Pork and cabbage is the safest bet.“

“If you want to enjoy freshly prepared food, try this place! I came once and tried their Chive,Pork and Shrimp dumplings and they were delicious, big and super filling!! Great portions and so tasty!! Thank you for becoming my new favorite spot😋🙏🏻🥟👍🏼“

“The food is excellent and there is a wide variety of dishes“

“Bigggggg portions! Bring your stomach! We came at a random time and the auntie who works there was there to work! She's immediately recommend the dishes and the add-ons. Despite our language barrier, she quickly took our order and the food came out fast. We ordered their signature rice noodles with medium spicy level, which is perfect. Great place, chill vibe, spacious lounging area.“

“I’m a lao wai, but this place is my absolute favorite place for Chinese food. All the noodle dishes and rou jia mo amazing! Plus, the waitress at the front counter is always so cheerful and provides great customer service. It’s also the only place I’ve found in LA that sells da yao (大窑） soda! I highly recommend this incredible hole in the wall for exceptionally delicious food at an affordable price!“

“This place is lowkey and so legit. We love getting the taiwanese purple rice rolls, pork buns, and hot tea (that tea is a steal ngl). There's enough menu items you can take your time exploring, or eat some tried and trues. Everything tastes made from scratch. Prices are affordable. The servers are so sweet and kind. Like what's not to love?? The majority of customers are Chinese speaking, but we got by fine with English XD Morning Summit is always the perfect way to start your day...arguably best breakfast place in town!“

“Very quick & friendly service at the Sunset location. All I got was a regular-size chicken karaage bowl and it was perfect. Tipped a little extra“

“This is a gem in the rough place. Super enjoyable atmosphere. There are tons of chinese restaurants around the corner, most of them are over priced and below average quality. This place is reasonably priced, easy parking and good quality food. My favorite place to hang out for lunch of dinner.“

“I’ve tried pho in many neighborhoods and restaurants, but BMC Pho truly stands out. Pho #1 here is on another level — rich, flavorful broth, tender meat, and super fresh herbs, all perfectly balanced. The quality is always consistent, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh every time. This is the kind of taste that keeps you coming back. I absolutely love it. BMC Pho is, without a doubt, the best pho I’ve had. Highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates real flavor and quality.“
