Noodles near Placentia, CA

“Great service and great tasting Pho. My kids love it here“

“Literally the best pho place in OC (I’ve tried lots of them). Their phomazing comes with a giant ox bone that you eat the meat off of and will make you drool. Husband gets the chicken chow mein that I end up eating half of. Rich authentic flavor tastes like it’s from Asia.“

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk“

“Interesting noodles. I didn't get a chance to ask if they really made from potatoes but I assume they are due to the name... Not sure exactly what powder means tho...

So all the options are basically like an individual noodle/hotpot thing. There's basically 3 options... Beef, seafood hotpot, and seafood pot...I have no idea what seafood pot vs seafood hotpot means. They have 4 flavors: spicy, slightly spicy, not spicy, and tomato; they have 2 noodle choices: potato or knife cut.

I got the premium beef tomato flavor with both the potato noodles and knife cut noodles. The noodles resemble udon but with way more bounce/chew. The knife cut noodles were really good too. I kinda wish I got more of the knife cut noodles... Like a 50/50 ratio but it was more like 75/25. The broth was tasty and the beef was good. One thing to note was that there were too many mushrooms relative to the other stuff. I don't love mushrooms so found it slightly annoying there was more of that than the other stuff. Otherwise, I found the dish to be good. Price at $16 isn't a decent price for the dish.

Overall, if you've never tried potato noodles def swing by and give this dish a shot.“

“We were in Anaheim for a Ducks game and decided we were craving dumplings. We came across Yum Dumpling and are so glad we did. From the moment we walked in, the restaurant felt cozy and welcoming, and the service was excellent.

Once the food arrived, it was clear we made the right choice. Everything was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Kung Pao chicken, house special chow mein, and the shrimp and pork spicy wontons each dish was packed with flavor and made with fresh, crunchy vegetables. The steamed pork bao dumplings were especially impressive: juicy, tender, and full of flavor.

To top it off, we had the passion fruit green tea, which was refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were all outstanding. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in the area. Highly recommend!“

“I ordered their beancurd beef tripe and tomato crab paste rice noodles today. I have gotten dinner several times before and had tried their shrimp roll, hainan chicken rice. All of the dishes I tried are good. It’s pretty quiet usually when I visit this place. The most people I’ve seen are probably 3-4 tables of customers. Service is good every time and servers are very attentive and friendly.

Its more like a 4 for this place because its a place I would often come because of their food and service. I decided to give this place a 5 star instead because I want to support small businesses like these and because this place is more hidden / low key so unless you are in the area for a quick lunch, theres a less chance people would find this place.“

“Visiting here with my family, I was genuinely surprised by the quality of the food. The Big Wagyu Rib Pho is prepared authentically, with a delicate flavor that is just right. My mother praised the cleanliness and tidiness of the place, and we will definitely return.“

“Happy Morning is a cozy spot with comforting Cantonese-style noodle and rice dishes. I tried their Signature Beef Brisket Rice Noodles and was impressed by how tender the beef was and how rich the broth tasted—perfect for a chilly evening. The portions are generous and the prices are fair. Great place for a casual, satisfying meal.“

“Omeli Kitchen is my happy place! Every time I go, it's a flavor explosion. The lomo salteado is a guaranteed winner—it's never let me down. And the shaken beef? Seriously, it's so good it should be illegal. This cozy spot might only have 10 tables, but they get the food to you lightning fast. It's a must-have on our regular rotation.“

“This little mom-and-pop noodle shop was such a great find! We stumbled in right around 8:30 PM, just before they closed, and ended up being the last ones there.
​Their noodles were honestly delicious. I mean, my nephew, who is notoriously picky, even complimented the shrimp noodle! The dandan noodles were a touch too salty for my personal taste, but everyone else absolutely loved them.
​Even though it was late, the service was great. We never felt rushed. I'm definitely going to be coming back whenever a noodle craving hits!“

“I'm a Korean, and I’ve traveled all over Vietnam many times, and I can confidently say this place has better dishes than anywhere in Vietnam...!!! Make sure to add oxtail — it’s absolutely heavenly. I’ll definitely be coming here often!“

“Pho 45 in Garden Grove is a bright, busy, and very clean spot with a friendly vibe. We ordered the phở tái chín và viên and the phở tái nạm gân. The portions were generous and well balanced, with fresh herbs and noodles. The broth was light and I personally wished for a bit more spice aroma, but it was still one of the better pho experiences I have had.

The service truly stood out. For a small mom and pop restaurant, it was the best I have seen. The owner watches every detail and the staff is very attentive. I had a stroller with me and before I even reached the table they cleared a chair so I could park it easily. Our food also came out super fast.

The space is simple with white textured walls and is very family friendly. Service is a 10, food is a 9. I would definitely return“

“Our party of 20 came in on Christmas Eve and they were able to accommodate us. The food was definitely made with love. Sushi, bento box and ramen was phenomenal!! The (picky) kids got chicken and fries and they loved it as well! Big serving sizes and great prices. Oh, and the playlist was fire. Can’t wait to come back!!“

“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 .“

“Absolutely loved this sushi spot! The fish was incredibly fresh, and the salad was light and tasty. They had a Christmas salmon special that was such a great deal--5 pieces of salmon sashimi, 2 pieces of salmon sushi, and a classic salmon roll. Perfect for salmon lovers!

I also tried the shishito peppers, which were nicely charred with just the right amount of spice. The spicy tuna rainbow roll was another highlight--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made.

The service was awesome too. Chrystal was my server and she was so cool, funny, and made the whole experience even better. She was so professional and down to earth! Definitely a place I'd come back to again! You should give it a try if you're in the area!
The decor was super cute too. The decor reminds you of being in Japan!“

“Wow, great food and atmosphere. The pad see eww had one of the best char on the noodles I've ever had and I lived in SF. Great people behind the counter and very friendly. My son's first time having thai food and he loved the drunken noodles(nospice). Would recommend to anyone.“

“Went on Wednesday night so it wasn't too crowded. Service was great along with the food. They have some good specialty rolls that I enjoyed. They also had some Boba drinks that were fairly tasty. It's a small establishment but I'd recommend checking it out. Good overall experience.“

“This is my go to chicken pho spot. It’s not overly busy like their main location in little Saigon. The spicy chilli sauce they have is really good if your into that stuff and if you’re not feeling like pho you can order their fried chicken leg which is super crispy that is also served up with fried chicken skin which is addicting. Just remember they are closed on wednesdays.“

“Awesome“

“The food is very delicious, the restaurant is very beautiful, there is a lot of parking. Importantly all of the chefs are beautiful“

“The Hainan chicken was tender and juicy, and the skewers were wel-seasoned!
The restaurant's interior is very cozy, decorated with plants and Chinese-themed items.
Ordering is easy with the QR code on each table, which is convenient.
This spot specializes in potato noodles, skewers, and Hainan chicken.
Combo #1 comes with two bowls of rice and soup, a plate of chicken, cucumber salad, and fried peanut. The rice is very fragrant and the chicken was tasty with the sweet and spicy sauces.
The potato noodles is very tasty. I will say the best one in LA. If you want to add more protein to the soup that’s good. It is also good for the original recipe. I absolutely love the numbing, peppery flavor of Sichuan pepper in potato noodles.“

“Food itself was excellent with their tasty broth and tender meats. The udon noodles were amazing all around. The soup dumplings are a must try also with the pork inside being so savory. The service itself was very quick and using a self ordering kiosk is very easy and honestly convenient. Atmosphere wise the whole place is small so it creates a cozy vibe while you chow down on some awesome food. 10/10 will be coming back after our next disneyland trip.“

“Great food. I'll definitely be back!“

“Amazing experience from when we walked through the door to when we walked out had such an amazing experience!! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING SUSHI WAS ON POINT AND THE PRICES are great!!!!! But what would make me come back(cause I’m from Temecula) was the service and the amazing food“

“The best Thai cuisine in town, Chef is from Thailand, authentic taste as well. Walked in with my husband in mid-Dec, we both are Green / Red chicken curry lovers, price is right, enjoyable food, strongly recommend. Then, got lunch special take out today, it was fast prepared. Brought it home, food temperature and taste remained Hot/Delicious as we expected. Definitely would visit or take out again.“

“Fun spot. Needed to get away from the craziness of Disneyland. Quick drive from the park to this neighborhood spot. Good Szechuan style noodle spot 🍜 . Soup dumplings good. Pan fried pork dumplings EXCELLENT 🥟 . Szechuan popcorn chicken on point along with the braised beef noodle soup.

Service was the standout. The woman serving, who seemed like the owner, was genuine and fun. Really made the experience for us. We had one of four kids crying (while the rest of us laughed, long story) and she ran over with tissues and gave her a hug that made here smile. ❤️“

“This was an EXCELLENT pho restaurant. My wife and I took a vacation with our friends to California. We came all the way from Idaho. We were hungry after arriving at our hotel from driving all day. My wife and our friend all really love pho; me not so much. I will say, this was the best pho that I have had. The service here was very quick. The food tasted very delicious. We gave our compliments to the staff after finishing our meal and we ended up talking with them for a moment. They are very kind and friendly.“

“1 year ago I went here for the 1st time, ordered noodle #2, black bean, fried rice and a soup. The beef noodle #2 is the only item I order after that. I grew up eating so many ramen and Chinese noodle plates in San Gabriel Valley area and at little tokyo, Jeong 's noodle is my top 1 or 2. I invited my family and friends over to try it,they all liked it. The business next door has people lining up all the time, but I wasn't impressed by their food. Jeong 's Noodle deserves that long line.“

“Wow, the taste was amazing - both the pho and the cucumber lemonade. The pho was richly and deeply flavored and was satisfying while still being bright and fresh feeling. The service was very prompt, friendly and helpful - the server understood my not liking overly sweet drinks and recommended the cucumber lemonade as refreshing while still having sweetness. It was, indeed, refreshing and sweet - perfectly balanced flavors. The server also wisely suggested we package the noodles and broth of our leftovers seperately. I almost never eat out, but I would if I lived near Soup Shop.“

“My Vietnamese coworker took me here recently. Had the Crab and Shrimp Udon (#2) - OMG it was AMAZING. Very tasty, packed with seafood, and broth was awesome. He got the Pork and Beef bowl (#1) and said really good too. Would return.“

“Great fast eatery, you can watch fresh noodles made through the large kitchen windows.
Big bowl of noodles will satisfy any hungry soul.
The order comes very fast even on a busy day.
They also offer you a plastic bibs to cover any soup splash.“

“Tasty ramen and fried rice. Takoyaki was so good we almost thought it was freshly made. Stir fry vegetables good too. Run by Japanese operators. Service and food was prompt on a busy weekday lunch hours. Oh, and I love their beautiful Japanese ceramic plates.“

“My first visit to Nava Thai Cuisine was a delightful experience, guided by the staff's super friendly recommendations. Walking in, I felt welcomed, and the service was quick—my food was ready in just about 10 minutes, which is fantastic for a dine-in or takeout order.
The staff suggested a few favorites, and I settled on the Chicken and Vegetables with a medium spice level, and an order of the Fried Tofu.
The Fried Tofu was definitely a highlight. The portion was generous, and the texture was incredible—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and tasted almost like a savory donut! It was accompanied by two flavorful dipping sauces: a rich garlic dipping sauce and a vibrant spicy sauce, which elevated the dish perfectly.
The Chicken and Vegetables was tasty and the medium spice had a nice kick without being overwhelming. My only minor wish is that the portion size was slightly larger, as I found it to be a little on the small side. However, the freshness of the ingredients and the warm, friendly service more than made up for this small detail.
Overall, Nava Thai Cuisine offers a good experience with fantastic staff and standout dishes like their fried tofu. I would recommend this place, especially if you're looking for fast, friendly service and a great appetizer“

“Food was yummy and service was very quick. Granted there were two other tables there but the food came in less than 10 minutes.

Portion sizes were also good and we ordered three dishes for 2 people and it was way more than we needed. Overall good for the price and we will be coming back to try more items on their extensive menu.“

“Good place for lunch and dinner“

“Our Boss buys lunch for our monthly goal met. And this month he had the opportunity to try Soonheene. Highly recommend their Rice water is tasty and perfect sweetness. Like a verson of Horchata without the dairy. Thier chicken was super crispy as it should be n very flavored. Will definitely come with Family“

“After visiting the OC/LA area, we're on the way back to the Bay Area, we wanted to have some lunch before we go. Some of the restaurant closed on Monday, one our friends recommended this place for real excellent egg noodles soups, so we stopped by, it's right next to PLT the big VN shopping center.
There's no parking for this restaurant, the whole block has a few parking spots and there's parking on the PLT but always full. We had to park outside on a different shopping center.
The restaurant is small and simple, clean. The owner or the care taker seems to be extremely friendly and attentive sitting us on a table.
The menu has quite a few dishes, but we're concentrating on egg noodle soup for lunch so we ordered the special bowl of rice noodles instead of egg noodles. It's quite good, quite tasty with chinese crispy donuts.
We had a great lunch and the price is extremely inexpensive. Ready to drive home.“

“I’ve found myself coming to this spot many times whenever I’m in OC. It’s one of the few places where you can find a wide variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes beyond just pho, which, honestly, a lot of places still don’t get right.

I’ve tried more than six different dishes here, and every single one has been flavorful, delicious, and truly authentic. It tastes just like home.

Some of my favorites are the Bún Mắm, Bánh Hỏi Heo Quay, Bún Riêu, and Hủ Tiếu Mì Khô—all so good and packed with flavor. I don't recommend Bột Chiên tho!

The service is always friendly, and the food comes out quickly, which makes the experience even better.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for real Vietnamese food that goes beyond the usual. A hidden gem worth checking out!“

“Good food, good price and friendly servers. Family own. Recommend this restaurant when you want to have noodles soup for your meal.“

“One of the few authentic Vietnamese restaurants I have found in orange county!“

“Found this place randomly searching for a local Japanese style restaurant and found this Gem. Tried their Chicken Curry plate as it seemed to be there go to with their BOGO promotion. The curry had a phenomenal and savory taste. I'd recommend Level 3 Spice level as it is a great blend of flavor and spice. If you're interested in having great Japanese Curry this is the spot. I also tried their potato croquette which was exquisite I ate it immediately and took a photo part way 🤣 into eating. I also have their Strawberry Matcha Latte which was a great blend and tasted perfect. Definitely coming back to try the Curry Omelet variety. This is a great spot to come with friends or if you just want to enjoy some great Japanese food solo.“

“No fancy looking photos, good tasting soups for dinner. We did a take out, and was amazed how they packed the food. It was so sealed, good thing i have scissors during our trip. Then later found out they provided a plastic cutter for the film.
We really enjoyed the beef rib soup. Kimchi was really good too. I know their pork belly soup was popular too, but its not much to our liking. The seafood pancake probably had too much egg on the batter, it became more omelette. But its still tasty.“

“Great portions, great price. Their pho is like medicine for me. The meat is always perfectly cooked, the broth is thick and flavorful, the bon mi is amazing, and their Thai tea is made from scratch.
At this point, these people are family, no reason to go anywhere else.“

“Bueno“

“Best pho I ever had! Clean place. At 1230am, this restaurant was still packed.“

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

“Super dumpling was on my radar to come to when visiting California because we don't have any halal dumplings where I live. I was really looking forward to it and, thankfully, they lived up to the hype.

The pan beef fried buns were great, as were was everything else that we bought ordered. The wontons and dumplings were amazing. We got both pan fried and steamed to try both of them and they were both great.

Thankfully, we were able to find seating fairly quickly for our family of five, but they were really busy and definitely get packed quickly. I'm not sure if you can call ahead, but it's worth a shot. I actually canceled our reservation to another place close to the area just because I would rather support an establishment that has meat, and i'm happy to have found that here.“

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

“My favorite local Vietnamese restaurant. I always get their number 18 pho which is brisket and well done flank. This place is the only place around me that serves amazing food while being very affordable. Service is always welcoming and room is always filled with happy customers.“

“The best Gob Chang restaurant in the Buena Park area. Food comes out already mostly cooked and is kept hot on small burner, so no bbq smell after eating. Meat quality is great, and their side dishes are the best combination of the meat. Their pork belly is great also. And definitely try their cold noodle.“
