    Garlic Noodles Tofu
    Stephanie M.

    The food is so tasty! Has good flavor and the portions are great! Service was excellent, I got a recommendation and it did not disappoint! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have music playing inside, it's not loud to the point where you can't hear other people talking so it gives a good vibe to the place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Friendly Service - Cashier and Owner were very friendly Good Food - Food was delicious Good Value - You get a lot of food Apparently this place has been around for several years and we are now just discovering it. I work down the street from this place, but it never showed up on Yelp for me, so hopefully this post gets more attention. Lots of options for vegetarians and some for gluten-free eaters too. My friend ordered an orange chicken bowl, which looked really good. I asked for the same thing, but to substitute it with Tofu. It wasn't on the menu, but they honored my request. It was really good! It's hard to find a lot of good Tofu dishes, so if you are Tofu eater like myself, then you should give this place a try.

    The food at this small little restaurant was delicious! I had garlic noodles with beef filet. The noodles were slightly chewy and slightly garlicky. The beef filet was so tender! Others in our party got fried rice with bulgogi beef and fried rice with beef filet. You can't go wrong with the garlic noodles or fried rice. I will say, however, if choosing between bulgogi beef and filet, I think the filet is the way to go! They also offer boba drinks. Service was friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean and well kept.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside seating is limited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Something is just different not in a good way. Been a fan and a supporter of this little place. But the last visit my wontons definitely not good. Didn't even eat them the first bite was like ugh no. Presentation looked right but taste was bad off not sure why but gonna pass on this place now. Not the same

    Garlic noodles with shrimp and orange chicken

    What a gem! We found 194 Eatery through the Yelps when we needed a bite to eat before a matinee show at the La Mirada Performing Arts Center, and what a find it was! Now, it's tradition to stop by whenever we have a show in the area. We've had the beef bulgogi, pad see ew, garlic noodles with shrimp, and orange chicken. The food here is surprisingly solid! For a small store that serves food in plastic to-go containers, the flavours are pretty good! We haven't tried their drinks yet, though. Staff is super friendly, and the owners are cute. We love supporting small, family, and local businesses, and this place checks all the boxes! It's run by a couple, and the husband is the chef. We couldn't figure out why it was called 194 Eatery, but after some conversation with the nice lady, we learned that this number was chosen because it was her husband's weight. That's a fun fact if I've ever heard one! 194 Eatery is located in a small shopping area with a small parking lot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are a few seats inside, and we've only seen it fill up once.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great prices for decent portions!

    Nice little mom and pop boba shop that offers great food! I ordered the orange chicken with garlic noodles. My vegan friend wanted to try the orange chicken sauce on top of the tofu, and the owner was more than happy to accomodate his request. He actually chatted with us for a while and told us about the history of the restaurant, which opened during the height of Covid. I will be back!

    I got the garlic noodles with sliced beef. It was good! It's a little on the greasy side cause of the beef but still good! The service was very good, very nice and friendly. Would recommend for garlic noodle lovers!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is such a cute mom and pop spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kpop was playing on the speakers and there was plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friend and I came here after work and we ordered the orange chicken with rice, cheesy bulgogi fries, black milk tea, and mango yakult. I think our personal favorite was the orange chicken with rice!! Super delicious. I can't wait to come back to try the other dishes and drinks. The owner was super sweet when she took our orders at the cash register. I think there's a $5 minimum to use credit card fyi but that was fine because we ordered way more! While we sat waiting, our food was brought out to us hot and fresh. Thank goodness they were already in takeout containers because we couldn't finish the food. It was delicious as leftovers the next day. Definitely will be coming back!!

    Tasty food! We ordered the beef garlic noodles, shrimp bowl, and beef bowl. They have a pretty decent selection of bobas. All of our food came out good. Drinks were yummy. We'd come back again. Oh and we loved the popcorn chicken! Service was great, they were friendly.

    Beef Pad See Ew Beef, shrimp Fried Rice, soy glazed wings
    Mayra F.

    So happy to stumble upon this little gem! I drive by everyday coming from work and I finally stopped by to try it out. I was not one bit disappointed. I got the pad see ew, which seems to be a crowd favorite, shrimp fried rice and soy glazed wings. Everything was so flavorful and delicious! Not too salty but savory enough. I really loved it all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean and the staff is super friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It took a while to get my food but I assume it's because everything is made to order. I highly recommend you check them out! Can't wait to come back and try other things.

    Came back here again this week for a quick pick up meal, and always a quick and reliable stop. The girl at the front was so sweet answering my questions about their menu as well as showing me to their bathroom in the back (I had to walk through the kitchen to use it and there is a bunch of stuff being stored in there, but hey I'm not one to complain about getting to use it). The drink was pretty well priced considering the inflation of boba drinks and especially fruit drinks, so SO WORTH IT. The chicken pad see ew was alright, 6.5/10- not the best but also was not bad and I would get again considering how convenient it is to get food from here. The chicken wings are not your traditional fried chicken wings but the flavor of the sauce was good; they were a bit dry but not enough to stop me from eating it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are a few tables and countertop space along the wall for seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is very chill inside, a bit homey, 'hole in the wall.'[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The parking lot is a bit tight but there are usually spots whenever I come by. Overall, the food this time was alright, but for the price and the kind service, I'm happy!

    I've been receiving Yelp recommendations regarding this spot so decided to stop by to pick up some food. The spot is conveniently located in a strip mall with ample parking. The restaurant itself has a small dinning area but I was just picking up. The staff were friendly, attentive, and polite and were nice enough to accommodate my order pick up change time. I ordered several items that included chicken fried rice, pad see ew with beef, popcorn chicken with thai chili sauce, fried dumplings, and a thai tea with boba. My favorite was the chicken fried rice, it was delicious and full of flavors. The fried dumplings were perfectly cooked and very tasty. However the other items were good but not totally memorable. In conclusion, 164 Eatery didn't totally disappoint but under succeeded my expectations especially since Yelp kept recommending the spot to me. Maybe next time I drop by I'll get the garlic noodles.

    If you want good kimchi fried rice, this is your place. Actually all their fried rice plates are really good.

I love this Nekter location it is clean, calm, and your order is done pretty quickly. The young man working there was super nice + professional. After coming to these spots for years I just found out the waffles are gluten free and can be made dairy free! I appreciate how above and beyond they went explaining it and preparing it. It was truly the best bowl I have had at any Nekter. The consistency was perfect so was the balance of all the ingredients. Looking forward to having another one some day. The only danger is spacing it out, because it is so good! Also the easy parking was a bonus in my book.

It was around 4 PM and there was a female cashier who was brunette and had her hair in a ponytail. As soon as we got inside, we barely walked up to the register and she yells at us "ITS GOING TO BE A 30 MINUTE WAIT!". My husband and I literally looked at each other in disbelief as she yelled at us in front of the other six people that were in the store. You could tell some of the other customers were shocked and just stared at us like "what the heck just happened". As we stood there, we just decided to wait to see if she would take our order. She continued to work, never acknowledged us or looked at us after that, and didn't even go to the register to take our order while we stood there, waiting patiently. I looked at my husband and said " she just yelled at us and I don't think she's going to take our order. It's not worth it. Let's just go." It's a shame and extremely disappointing to have had that experience. After that experience, I am never going to this store location again. To be treated like that when all we did was just barely walk in is disgusting. I'd rather go to the location in the Whittier Groves. It left a bad taste in my mouth and they lost my business.
