Noodles near Van Nuys, CA

“Fantastic food, fair prices, friendly service. Thank you, Sam and the staff, we enjoyed the food and the company. The place feels warm. The food we took to our fellows in the office got many compliments. Thank you,“

“The stir-fried noodles with chicken and broccoli at this place were honestly the best part of my night after the Dodgers game. I am basically the whole package, so a smart, cute guy should reach out before someone else catches on. You know where to find me.“

“Saturday at noon. All the stars aligned. Found parking right in front. Minimal wait for a table of 6. By the tine the rest of our party arrived they were ready to seat us. Afterwards we walked around 99 ranch next door to burn off some of the food.

Our group ordered as family style and here is our hit list:
1. Sam Woo platter (roast duck, roast pork, chinese bbq pork, soy sauce chicken) - 1
2. Hot sour soup
3. French style beef - C5
4. Orange chicken
5. Eggplant with minced pork (spicy)
6. Bbq pork Fried rice“

“It does get pretty crowded. Great pho with generally short wait times.

The food is very flavorful and fresh. The portion of accompanying greens and limes are always plentiful. Every protein I’ve had from there is phenomenal. The fried eggrolls were the perfect amount of crisp, the dipping sauce was delicious and the flavor was amazing. The spring rolls are always fantastic, served with a tangy, not too sweet, perfectly balanced sauce.

Because it’s so busy, you do need to wave down or get the attention of a server if you need anything. But they’re very quick, very kind, and exceptionally polite.“

“We loved the authentic noodles and warm hospitality. Our lovely server also recommended me to drink the Tenth degree ginjo instead of regular sake, which I liked a lot.“

“My friend and I had a delicious lunch at Hui Tou Xiang! The leek pancakes and dumplings are all handmade in-house as well as the noodles. We’ll be going back.“

“Amazing vegan ramen with great flavors. There's something for everyone here! The signature ramen with gyoza comes with a smokey flavor that was delightful. I particularly loved the yuzu sesame ramen. The curry ramen was perfect for my mom who likes Indian flavors, the garlic miso ramen is great for garlic lovers and the spicy miso is great for those who like spice! Will definitely come back!“

“The Pho is enough for 2 people and it's delicious! We have had both the chicken and the Wagu beef. Also, the rice plates with fried rice and either Wagu beef or spicy pork is really good. We get one of each (Pho and rice plate) and share. We are quite full and satisfied when we finish! And the prices are very reasonable.“

“I really enjoyed the food and it was not very pricey at all. Most of the plates, even the favorites at that, we’re about $15… Everything on the menu is Vegan 🙋🏽‍♂️“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“One of several new malatang places in the area, Bruin Bowl is not a large place, but they seem to have a solid selection of meats, veggies, noodles, and seafood despite their modest size. Both the bone broth and the chicken/fish maw soup bases are pretty tasty too. Excellent option if you're in the area.“

“Better ask "Why is your food So Great?" A huge fan since 1987 on Sunset. I wish you were closer...to Palm Springs... when in LA I have to stop and Eat at my favorite place, ever. Please do not try the Chinese Chicken Salad....Thank you for selling your top secret dressing! People, go try the Chins! You will love everything!“

“They have the best Pho in the Reseda area. This is my go to spot since the goldfish in the front entrance.. they have really made it look nice. All their pho is delicious. Everything on the menu is amazing. They are also opened late that is a plus. Location is always busy but worth the wait. Their food is authentic tasting.“

“I sampled their famous xiao long bao, delicious dumplings, savory fried rice and garlic string beans. Each dish was a taste experience, from the delicious dumplings in broth to the perfectly seasoned fried rice. The service is great and the atmosphere is inviting. Don't miss this place for authentic Taiwanese cuisine and unforgettable flavors. It has the taste of home.“

“Amazing Thai food! The Tom Kha hot pot was rich, creamy, and full of flavor, and the green curry was absolutely delicious. Fresh ingredients, great service, and cozy atmosphere. Will definitely come back🥰🥰🥰“

“Test its by yourself.clean foods and good service“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“I've been eating here for over 30 years and I love it every time. The people, the food and the feeling of home keep me coming back. :)“

“this place is awesome. i get the sean secret hand roll every time (baked crab, avocado, soy paper) and rotate between a couple of other rolls. this time i got the jay-lo roll and added fried onion. their fried onion is ridiculous, you have to give it a try! love kinza every time i’m out in sherman oaks.“

“Cute pho spot! Delicious food w great service! Their sweatshirt are dope too!“

“Swadikaa 🙏

if it has to be Thai, it has to be NAT

One of the best Thai food experiences in Los Angeles! If you're a Thai food lover, this place is an absolute must-visit. And if you haven't tried it yet, you're truly missing something in life.

The food is authentic, incredibly flavorful, and the portions are amazing — one dish is easily enough for two people. Every bite feels like comfort food made with love.

What makes this place even more special is the owner and chef, Nata. She serves every guest with so much warmth and care that you'll feel as if your own mother is cooking and serving you. She is sweet, approachable, open to suggestions, and always makes you feel right at home.

Great conversations, outstanding hospitality, and unforgettable food — this place has it all. It's not just a restaurant; it's an experience. Highly recommended, and definitely one of the hidden gems of Los Angeles!“

“A small place tucked away in a plaza. The restaurant was quiet with regulars that chatted with the staff. I got dumpling soup. I chose the combo option for kimchi and beef dumplings. We also got sujebi with sweet pumpkin dough flakes. The dumpling soup was very flavorful and had many toppings, including egg, seaweed shreds, and green onion. The amount was quite good for its price. The sujebi was very rich and starchy. The banchan was good as well.“

“Just LOVED my street noodles. They were spicy even though I ordered them mild. Fresh noodles are THE BEST!“

““Had a great experience at Chowking. The food came out fresh, hot, and flavorful, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout the visit. The restaurant was clean, service was quick, and everything was well organized even during busy hours. The Halo-Halo and siopao were especially good, and the portions were satisfying. Definitely a solid spot for comfort Filipino-Chinese food in the area. Looking forward to coming back again soon!”“

“A Los Angeles tradition. been visiting since the 80s and they still have their mojo! delicious! Personal favorites noodles in peanut sauce and szechuan dumplings.“

“I have been here many times and eveytime the dish of my food are the same taste and was soo good. Most i ordered are noodle and Padthai Crispy wonton that was very good and great portion.
The server with short hair was very nice and helpful and she is so friendly. For the Parkling lot is easy and plenty to park and there are some Thai supermarket near by
I will keep coming back again and try the new dish. Most noodle that i have try were great.“

“I got the lunch special for 14.50, and a strawberry iced tea. Amazing and just right amount of spice on the red curry and the salad dressing was lovely. Even had some curry and rice to look forward to as leftovers. The person at the register was super kind and genuine, asking if I enjoyed the meal. Great lunch deal, parking in the neighborhoods off the main street.“

“This place has the absolute BEST Oyakodon and curry. I know people focus on the ramen but for real, it’s the closest we’ve gotten to food in japan since we got back from our trip. INCREDIBLE and they have thai tea and milk tea that’s delicious!!“

“First, I want to say that the restaurant is located in a beautiful area. Walking around the neighborhood was incredibly enjoyable and made the whole experience even better.

When it comes to the restaurant itself, I honestly don't have enough words to describe how amazing it was. I found out that the pasta is handmade rather than pre-made, and it's brought fresh from Italy every evening. That surprised me and made dining there even more special.

The pasta I ordered was prepared with white wine. The portion looked a bit small at first, but it was very filling and absolutely delicious.

I would also like to give special recognition to the manager. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, energetic, and made us feel comfortable throughout our visit. We were even treated to a delicious pasta that wasn't yet on the menu, which was such a thoughtful gesture. I will definitely come back just for that pasta!

Everything was excellent—the atmosphere, the people, the food, and the service. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

I would love to see more seafood pasta dishes added to the menu, and I can't wait to visit again.“

“Easily my new favorite sushi spot in the 818. I only started coming here recently, but every single time it’s been a 10/10 🔥🔥 The sushi is always fresh, you can really taste the quality. The customer service is one of the best parts too everyone’s super friendly, welcoming, and always takes care of you ! The vibe is great, the hospitality never misses, and it’s one of those spots you keep wanting to come back to. Definitely recommend checking it out“

“They have both inside and outside seating areas. Service is great.“

“Yummy Chinese food in the valley. Convenient location and ample parking. Ordered chicken wings, orange chicken and pan fried noodles and Thai tea. Tasted fresh and cooked well. Kind and attentive customer service. I’d come back. (Received a free Thai iced tea in exchange for the review but this is an honest review.)“

“First time excellent fresh food ..Live the appetizers“

“Been wanting to try this place for a couple years now. Glad we finally did. Excellent food, much better than any Jinya Ramen. We had a bunch of appetizers. Indeed, their Takoyaki was amazing, Howard Yang! 😍 We had 2 seasonal specials, the Spicy Crispy Shrimp Roll and the cold Tan Tan ramen. Both were fantastic, albeit a bit too spicy for me. Service is super friendly. We will definitely be back. Want to try a bunch of other things, including the hot ramens.“

“Superb Thai food. I loveeeeeee coming here. 🙂 The host (Nick) always greets me with a huge smile and I thoroughly vouch for the customer service. I’ve been coming here for 8 years. I enjoy the Pad Thai and the green curry. I got a special treat for my birthday. They are like family. This restaurant is awesome. The flavors remind me of my travels to Bangkok in 2019. Authentic flavors and even better hospitality. This is why Hae Ha Heng deserves a 10 starts out of 5 stars. Outstanding!!!!!!“

“Been coming here for as long as I can remember - I suppose as long as this iteration has existed. The H.Way Frontier is a place you’re introduced to early on if you’re below the line film crew in Burbank running with a rigging or art dept./set Dec crew. This storefront carries on the tradition as I’ll often bump into fellow industry crew here.
All that stuff is well and good but the real reason we congregate here is THE FOOD. There are other good Chinese restaurants in LA but this place to me is by far the best. Consistently wonderful, delicious, very good portion sizes and a nice menu variety. It’s quick (15 minutes or less) and the lunch specials are a great deal. I’m not usually this gushy about anything but Frontier Wok Too deserves every bit of praise I can throw at it. If my family is in the mood for Chinese Food there’s only one choice for us and that is right here. With no traffic it’s still a 20 minute drive one way but it’s worth every minute once we’re sitting down to eat it. You can’t go wrong at Frontier Wok Too. If you haven’t tried it you simply must and you can be the judge.“

“I visited this place on 04/07/2026, and saying that I liked it would be an understatement.

The service was 100 out of 10. The waiter knew the menu very well and was able to make great recommendations. I ordered the coconut milk soup with seafood, and it was absolutely delicious. There was a lot of seafood in it, and the portion was very generous.

We also ordered chicken and drinks. Honestly, the amount of food they brought us could easily feed three people. For $49 total, it was definitely worth it.

I also want to mention the honesty and kindness of the staff. I accidentally left my AirPods at the table, and the waitress found my car in the parking lot and personally returned them to me. That really impressed me and says a lot about the level of service and care they provide.

The atmosphere was calm, pleasant, and very welcoming. I definitely recommend this place and would be happy to come back again.“

“We used to have a Paik Noodle’s in our area, and it sadly closed 😭😭. Excited to find one within driving distance. Very clean, good service, and the food was delicious!

We walked in really late but they were very hospitable and we were still able to eat in.

We ordered the jjajangmyeon, tangsuyuk, soy garlic wings, and sweet and spicy wings. Everything was delicious. You can’t go wrong.
They gave us some jjambong (soup only) as well. That was also delicious. We seriously ate it all.“

“The owners of this restaurant are the sweetest! This has always been my go-to spot around my neighborhood for Thai. Its INCREDIBLE...I'll usually get the spicy seafood fried rice with a green curry but I've had nearly everything.The food's that good.Parking is a bit scarce to find but there's meters around the area and if you're lucky you might find a parking spot out back!“

“Mountain Noodles offers an extensive variety of Korean dishes, which initially made me skeptical about their focus on noodles. However, I was surprised to find that their menu cleverly builds on a foundation of decent meat broth with slight variations.

I tried their signature dish, the beef noodles, and opted for the mild spicy version, which unexpectedly came with kimchi in the soup. I would recommend going with the regular flavor to fully appreciate the rich flavor of the broth. Kimchi is also served as a standard side dish. The ribs in the noodles were perfectly cooked, and the noodles themselves were delightfully chewy and tasty.

While the service was not particularly friendly or proactive, it didn't significantly detract from the overall quality of the food. Mountain Noodles is a solid choice for anyone craving varolious and well-prepared Korean cuisine.“

“The Kuromayu Ramen was very good and very filling. The broth was yummy. I feared it was going to be salty but it wasn’t. The marinated egg was sooo good and the yolk was perfectly jammy. I wasn’t a big fan of the noodles but they were decent.

There is a mechanic humming sound that is quite loud and distracting. The atmosphere of the place could have been better if it was perhaps quieter. But, otherwise for a Saturday, there was no wait. The staff was very kind. The decor is nice and the place is exceptionally clean.“

“Finally made it here after seeing some reels on IG. It absolutely lives up to the hype. We got seated easily with no wait on a Friday night at 7pm for 2 people. We got the seafood and green onion pancake (our favorite), the hot stone pot rice with seafood, and the noodles with young summer radish kimchi (cold noodle soup dish). Would highly recommend the pancake! I’d say get the hot stone pot rice with beef or pork. The service was great; there’s a sweet older woman who took our order, mixed our wasabi into our soy sauce and literally put it on the pancake for us and she also boxed up our food. The restaurant got busy, but the food still came out quickly! Great spot, definitely will go back.“

“Fresh delicious food prepared to order.“

“Great Cantonese restaurant! My family has been coming to this restaurant for many years and the food is delicious and cooked like in Hong Kong. We had filet mignon and asparagus, sea food chow mein, Peking duck, snow pea leaf and mixed vegetables - mushroom, bok choi, fried tofu, bean sprouts, and broccoli (vegetarian dish). This place has a lot of old clientele, and tbe food is delicious.“

“Wow I can’t believe how incredible the food is here. This is not your typical Korean bbq. This is elevated and intentional Korean food with impeccable, full table service. I tried the $185 combo today and added a $12 nengmyun. Keep in mind it’s Pyeongyang style nengmyun and is different than what you may think is “standard” nengmyun. The meat quality is fantastic here. Really nice marbling. The standout for me was the galbi. So tender and struck a nice balance between the soy and the sweetness for me. The ssam and banchan are also so beautifully presented. The soups at kbbq tend to be an afterthought type of filler dish, but they don’t do regular soups here. The doenjang jjigae was made like my grandma makes, with a deep, umami anchovy based broth. They even utilized shiitake mushroom in it, which I have never seen before. Definitely an additional umami flavor to the dish, but this is really what I mean by everything is intentional. The spicy beef rib soup is my recommendation for the soup for the combo. It’s like the best yukgaejang/galbitang crossover I’ve ever had. The clean aftertaste from the radish in it is fantastic. The flavors of the different ingredients used really stood out to me. The nengmyun broth had a deep beef flavor and touch of sweetness that was simply perfect once I added in mustard and vinegar. The noodles are not my personal preference (I like hamheung style), but the broth is just *wow*. I was quite impressed to say the least. The meal combo was enough for 3 of us. They began to really fill up around 6:30. I can’t recommend this place enough.“

“I've eaten here four times and the food is always great. However, today I tried the Salted Cinnamon Cold Foam Cold Brew, and I will never be the same. It is the best coffee drink I've ever had, and it isn't even close. I don't even have words to describe it, it's just amazing. The staff is friendly and the food is fresh and tasty. I want to try the other coffee drinks now too, but I can't comprehend how a drink could taste better than this. Thank you Vui Ve, you changed a man's life today.“

“Wow, can't believe places like this still exist--a wonderful, old school korean restaurant that focuses on the important things: amazing kimchi, homemade noodle/sujebi, delicious homemade dumplings, the best yukejang... The owners are lovely and sweet, and my parents, who are super hard to please, were all smile with the entire meal :) Thank you!!“

“One of the best Thai food in the entire state. I haven’t found a spot with a selection this good in a 50 mile radius. I had five different dishes, including their Pad Thai and fried rice. They were all extremely delicious. There’s usually parking in the back and it’s totally safe. This place is a must.“

“FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!!

Went here with my kid and my mom last weekend. My eyes were bigger than my stomach as I proceeded to order more food than needed. We ordered a Mapo Tofu, a Juicy Pork Dumpling, a Pork Wonton in Spicy Sauce, a Green Onion Pancake and their marquee dish, Chongqing Crispy Chicken. Without a doubt, each dish was fire, but the Pork Wonton in Spicy Sauce really blew my socks off. The flavor was on point, and it wasn't very spicy. While I like it spicy, I know a lot of people don't like it. So this dish is perfect for people who want to like it spicy, but can't quite handle it. We ordered two rices, but in retrospect we should have ordered three... The Mapo Tofu demands more rice.

The restaurant was very clean, and the staff were very polite and accomodating. For now I can honestly I have found my new favorite Chinese restaurant in the valley. I will continue to go back here any time I have a hankering for Chinese, which is not true, because I always have a hankering for Chinese. The restaurant is like 20+ minutes away from my house, so it just isn't practical, and it is a tad expensive to be doing that. I think we got out of there after tip around $90, but again, it was a lot of food, and I had enough leftovers for another lunch for two. Definitely check it out!“

“This place just rips. The food is always amazing, the staff is always super nice, they have a cool menu and wild fun drinks. The vibe is on point, this place is an LA classic. I Truly don’t understand why this place isn’t completely slammed when I go, but I’m grateful I can always get a booth here.“
