Noodles in Temple City, CA

“This is one of my daughter’s and my favorite places to eat. Whenever we don’t have time to cook after the gym, we always come here. The food is fresh, healthy, and incredibly flavorful. Today, the chef made my daughter’s meal into a heart shape 💟, which completely made her day. Such a thoughtful touch! We’ll definitely keep coming back. ❤“

“Great food. Love their Banh Mi and Spring Rolls.“

“It felt like going to a relative’s home for lunch and they just kept bringing out one dish that’s better than the other. The owner had so many different dishes that were not on the menu board and would just told the customers. Everything was delicious. There were many regulars dining there; I just followed their lead and ordered whatever they ordered and all turned out terrific“

“Muy rica la comida Tun servicio excelente“

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.“

“I recommend the quail eggs, which are delicious and tasty. The chicken feet are dried and cannot be chewed, and the sinewy part of the beef tendon cannot be chewed and has no flavor. I don’t recommend the cold rice noodle. It doesn’t have the chewy texture and the seasoning is not delicious.“

“This old shop is very delicious and cheap. 50 pieces of leek, fish, and dumplings are only $20. 50 pieces of cabbage, pork, and meat are only $16. The haggis soup is only $18.99. The fish casserole is only $21.99. Everyone is welcome to try it. Pass the password. It’s delicious😋 face to face.“

“Had a great experience at Alice Kitchen for a family-style dinner. We made a reservation in advance for their 8–10 person set menu ($438), and it was definitely worth it.

The biggest highlight is how convenient the set menu is—no need to think about what to order, and you get a wide variety of dishes. Every course we had was solid, and there really wasn’t a weak dish.

Standouts for me included the braised pigeon, crispy beef brisket (crispy on the outside and tender inside), ginger scallion lobster, and the black truffle fried rice. The portions were generous, and everything came out well-prepared and flavorful.

They also included a complimentary Ovaltine French toast for dessert, which was a nice sweet ending. We added the HK-style pork ribs as well, which were also very tasty.

This is a great spot for family gatherings or group dinners—especially if you want a full, satisfying meal without the hassle of ordering individually.

One thing to note: the restaurant is quite lively and can get a bit noisy, and there are no private rooms. Not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind if you’re looking for a quieter setting.

Overall, great food, good value for a large group, and a fun dining experience. Would definitely come back!“

“I’ve been on a Taiwanese food binge lately and have been searching everywhere for some good, authentic Taiwanese dishes. This little mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall spot really hit the mark. The food tastes just like what I’d expect from back home or from the night markets in Taiwan.

I tried the stinky tofu (a must-have for any true Taiwanese food lover), the pork chop rice, and a few other dishes—and every bite was delicious, flavorful, and comforting. The portions are generous without being overwhelming, and the seasoning is on point.

The owners are super friendly and welcoming, which makes the dining experience feel even more like you’re visiting family. The restaurant shares a plaza with other shops, so there’s plenty of parking available, which is a big plus.

A couple of tips: it’s best to bring cash, as not everything is set up for cards. Also, they do have a restroom on site, which is always nice for a small place like this.

Overall, this is the kind of spot you want to keep coming back to—and the kind of hidden gem you almost don’t want to share so it stays special. Definitely one of my new go-to Taiwanese comfort food spots!“
