Been coming to this plaza for dessert for like a decade and never noticed when this place opened, and am now kicking myself!
The noodles are so qq (chewy) and the pork stir-fry is just the way I like it. The noodles are almost as good as my all-time favorites Malan (hand-pulled triangle or wide flat noodles in beef noodle soup and chow mein with thick round noodles), Even Life (spicy beef and tendon soup with hand-rolled noodles and chocolate milk lid) or my new obsession Lan Noodle (Signature Lan, or if you like spicy or vegetarian, Lanzhou Street, noodle soup with wide flat noodles). The cat ear noodles are especially q and I don't know where else to get these in America.
To the 2 reviewers (who I suspect are the same person leaving negative reviews under different aliases or are getting their friend to help gang up on them), they are busy, understaffed, and the waitress isn't just bringing out dishes but also doing work in back of house, so have a heart and cut her some slack for having a moment of human vulnerability and telling a customer she's tired, jeez. She wasn't being tired at you, come on. She does need training on the POP computer because the first time I came here I ended up just paying cash because I didn't want to wait for the cook to get a chance to come out and take my card payment.
They don't speak English but just be patient, point to the menu and muddle through, because it's worth it.
They can get so busy that I've seen customers get tired of waiting and leave (in the restaurant's defense those customers snuck in and seated themselves so the waitress didn't see them come in). If anyone from the restaurant reads this, please contact me. I have additional suggestions on how to run front and back of house more efficiently so that doesn't happen again. I really want you...
Read moreI recently dined at Noodle Palace in Los Angeles and it was an unforgettable experience! This place is a gem for anyone who loves authentic Asian cuisine. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere made us feel right at home.
The menu at Noodle Palace is impressive, offering a wide variety of dishes, each more tempting than the last. We started with some spring rolls, which were crispy and fresh, the perfect start to our meal. But the real star of the show was the noodles. I had the beef noodle soup, which was absolutely divine. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were perfectly cooked, and the beef was tender and juicy.
The service at Noodle Palace was top-notch. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring our water glasses were always full and all our needs were met quickly. They also had great recommendations on dishes to try, which was much appreciated.
Prices were reasonable, especially given the high quality of the food and the portion sizes, which were more than generous. We left feeling completely satisfied and already planning our next visit.
If you're in LA and craving delicious noodles, you have to check out Noodle Palace. It’s a culinary delight that you won’t...
Read moreNoodle Palace is a small Chinese restaurant in Rosemead, CA. They specialize in Shanxi cuisine. I had lunch there on a Wednesday. One waitress ran back and forth between the dining area and the kitchen. She had a nice smile. I could see the action in the kitchen through a wide opening. I saw a little machine in action, doing Knife Cut Noodle. It was interesting. Their menu was simple. They had 8 different noodle bases: hand-pulling long, sheer-cut, cat-ear, knife-cut, hand-pull small piece, and the 2 others in Chinese. I ordered the hand-pulling long noodle. I was told that the whole bowl of noodle had only 1 long string of noodle. I tried to pull it up but could not find its end. I believed them. The noodle texture was amazingly firm and chewy. The Chinese Beef Hamburger and dumplings were good. I thought I knew Chinese food. I learned a new dish: 莜麵栲栳栳. I would translate it as Oat Basket Noodle. It had an interesting texture. However, trying it once is enough. I would not order it again. Overall, I will come back to try...
