Comfort food. Cash only. Old school and casual. The noodles can be ordered with soup or dry'; you can choose the type of noodle you want (we prefer thin egg noodles), and I love that the broth is not too salty. Everything is simple and delicious. Must come back and try the chinese donut and hainan chicken rice.

Love this place because it's the only chiu chow noodle spot that has the clear glass noodle. I think. At least the other ones I've been they didn't have them. You can ask for garlic vinegar for your soup. I usually do this for all chiu chow places because I love garlic. Whichever soup you choose, you can pick from various noodles. I usually get wonton noodle soup but the wonton is okay. It's just pork wonton. But the soup is good and they give alot of noodles.

Literally my FAVVVV Cantonese/chinese noodles ever !!! I've been coming here since I was little & i always feel so so so nostalgic whenever I eat here because it reminds me of my grandma. I feel like I've seen this place grow & when I was younger the old owners knew me and my family :') they used to have a valley location but now it's this one in Rosemead. I always order the #13 (if you say "may wong" they will understand.) the two diff kind of noodles + the deep fried shrimp is SO good omfg I literally cannot I always think about her. I also love to add extra garlic and vinegar (I LOVEEE extra vinegar in my noodles for some reason lolol) Back then they used to give a free three color desert but I'm not sure if they do that anymore (I haven't dined in here in a while). They also only accept cash, no cards (but they also take venmo). This is such a hole in the wall place but it's truly one of my favorite noodles spots ever in the 626.

Old school spot that's been serving noodles for 40years. Ambiance is no frills and service is quick and efficient. The main event is hu tieu and I like to get the assorted #1 combo. The menu is extensive and you get to choose your noodle (choice of 9 different kinds ranging from thin to thick, rice to egg). The hai Nam chicken is also tasty if you prefer a non noodle dish. Be sure to bring cash. Prices are fair and parking is easy in their private lot.

I have been going to Mien Nghia for 23 years. The Valley location was my go to. It was so nice to walk in and the older woman already knew what my order would be. Till this day I still order the "Ching Wong" (forgive my spelling!!!) At the Garvey location. Yellow noodle special. I remember anyways getting the "May Wong" and realized I don't like the rice noodles and just asked, does it come with just yellow noodles? And I was educated the only way a Cantonese lady can, dummy it's called a "Ching Wong"! Even though the Valley location shut down, The flavor has not changed for me at this location. The owner is nice and the portions are still the same size as I remembered. The floors are sticky, the tables may not be wiped clean but I can look passed all of that for a bowl of my favorite noodles and a huge scope of chili crisp. Don't forget to ask for extra garlic sauce? for your soup!

Ordered to go: quick easy phone ordering. Ready in 10 min. Remember this place is CASH or Venmo only. Food: ordered the fried rice cake w egg. Such a simple dish but I love it. Can eat this daily. It's seasoned well. I love the addition of the green onions and fried onions on top. Comes with dipping sauce but it was so flavorful I didn't need it. 10/10 Won ton soup with thick egg noodle. Comes with 6 wonton dumplings and your choice of noodles. This place has 6 types of noodles. It was good and filling. 8/10

This place is the place if you're looking for well-priced, great-portioned, slurp-a-licious noodles. I live in Silver Lake but try and get here every two weeks or so. Trust me when I say it's worth the drive. Go here, choose what type of noodle bowl you'd like, choose what type of noodle you want, pick with soup or even a dry version - the options are endless. Only thing is that it's cash only but they also accept Venmo!

This spot is somewhat like a hole-in-the-wall because not a lot of tourists come here and that's how you know it's legit. Normally filled with locals, this restaurant keeps customers coming back because their food is just THAT good. I always order the chicken and fish noodle soup with medium thick egg noodles. There's normally a bowl of extra bean sprouts and leeks on the side to give the dish more flavor and crunch. DON'T forget to ask for extra fried onions too because that stuff is what makes the dish REAL good. An optional add-in would be their vinegar with garlic mixture. Ask for this and it comes in a small plastic to-go container. Try your soup before adding this. I'd recommend trying some in your spoon with the soup before just tossing it all in your bowl. Most people get the Chinese fried donut sticks on the side to eat with their soup. It's really good here too but I'm normally too stuffed with just this bowl of noodle soup, so I only order that on days when I really want to indulge. Lastly but most importantly, this place is cash only. They have started taking venmo too, but credit cards are not accepted. Since they are a small business, I always make sure to tip nicely and encourage others to come try them!
