    Always saw this place on Yelp but never had the urge to try it right away when I moved to Long Beach! Finally came here and so happy I did. It's a pretty decent pho spot and it's the closest pho business near me. Cyclo Noodles not only serves pho but also Cambodian and Thai Noodles. Inside there's a decent amount of seating too. As for the pho itself, it's a pretty big portion of noodles, broth and meats. I've gotten the pho rare steak and meatball. Both are good, you can go either way. I just feel like this spot doesn't really stand out compared to other pho in Southern California.

    We first tried Cambodian cuisine in Long Beach after visiting the Aquarium of the Pacific. My hubby had been craving Cambodian food since we were in Long Beach, as there's a Cambodian town there. I saw Cyclo Noodles have good reviews, so I decided to give it a try. It's located in a newly renovated plaza, and many parking spaces are available. The cuisine features Cambodian, Thai & Vietnamese food. The place wasn't fancy, but it was a casual dining establishment. We chose to order food from the kiosk machine, which was a self-service option. We received the utensils and water ourselves. We ordered the following: -Phnom Penh Noodle -Pad Thai -Spring rolls -Banh Song Noodle Salad Phnom Penh Noodle: $14.60 + $1.50 (egg noodles) - Hubby ordered the regular size (you can upgrade it to a large size for $3 extra). It includes rice noodles, but we chose egg noodles, so we paid an extra $1.50. You can also add more ingredients, such as meat, veggies, or noodles, by paying extra fees. The Phnom Penh Noodle had ground pork, sliced pork, fish ball, shrimp, squid, lightly sprinkled cilantro, and crushed fried garlic. It was flavorful and similar to Chiu-chow style noodles. Pad Thai $14.25 Stir-fried noodles with egg, tofu, bean sprouts, and green onions mixed with house sauce. We chose beef for our protein. (Chicken, beef, and tofu are the choices for no extra charges, except seafood) The beef quality was not that good, and they were chewy. Pad Thai flavor was on the savory side and not much of the sweetness. It was more like a Cambodian and Thai fusion Pad Thai to me. My daughters liked it, but hubby and I prefer more authentic Pad Thai. Spring rolls $8.25 This appetizer had 3 pieces of Spring rolls with Shrimp, chicken, vermicelli, basil, mint leaves, cilantro and lettuce wrapped in Rice sheet and dipped in savory peanut and sweet sauce. The Vietnamese spring rolls were okay. We've tasted better spring rolls at other places, though. Banh Song Noodle Salad $14.60 I ordered this Banh Song Noodle Salad, and it was cold Vermicelli noodles with fresh cucumber, bean sprouts, mint leaves, basil, lettuce, egg rolls, and a choice of chicken, shrimp, or Beef topped with our cyclo sauce. (I picked chicken for the protein) It was similar to Vietnamese bun for me. The portion was big. I liked this dish, but the chicken meat could be more tender. I liked the cyclo sauce and the coconut sauce. Overall, it was not bad, but I had higher expectations. It was a 3.5 stars to me (round up to 4 stars).

    I got the pad thai and it was disappointing. Very dry and no flavor. Not even sure what I ate. Paid extra for meat and mixed seafood toppings and that was also disappointing. Meat was hard and chewy. Seafood was just one shrimp, half fish ball, and one imitation crab meat. Portion is big and that's about it. Hope the quality of other food is still the same. I also noted they increased the price on the beef skewers.

    This was my first time trying this restaurant after being recommended by my friend and I decided to get it for take-out for my family. FOOD: I ordered the *phnom penh noodle* and it was not good. I paid an extra $1.50 to have my noodle soup with egg noodles with a 10% tip and it was not received and still got the rice noodles. The imitation crab was gross and the shrimp was tiny. The only thing I liked about the dish was the single fish ball. The portion of the toppings overall was low quality and little with two pieces each and the fish ball in halves. For *chicken curry vermicelli steak* noodle dish, it was watery and tasteless. The *beef and beef ball noodle dish* was overall good. They gave the egg noodles we paid extra for and flavorwise they were good but the noodles had gelled together into a gelatinous brick. After vigorously separating them, the noodles still had some sizeable clumps. This was somewhat surprising as other dry egg noodles we've had from different establishments never had this issue. On the plus side, the tripe was delicious, as were the other meats in the dish. The portion for each meat was also generous, which made the lackluster portions of the *phnom penh noodles* seem even stranger. The broth was also serviceable in terms of flavor, but not particularly memorable for its flavor. DRINKS: My friends got the *viet iced coffee* and the *mango shake smoothie* and they LOVED THEM. One of the good things on the menu. OVERALL: All in all, this so-called restaurant comes off as a gentrified and only to be made trendy for college students that want to be seen cool participating in Asian culture. Drive 15 minutes east to Westminster for real Viet food like Peach Garden Restaurant or My Vi Mi Gia Restaurant that will give you real portions.

    Yeah, the food wasn't great. Nice enough place with friendly staff, but the food was mediocre to bad. The pho was just basic and a little bland and the egg rolls were really mushy inside and the wrapper was more like a tortilla than an egg roll. They really need to at least work on the basics. Only bumping to 2 stars because the staff was cool.

    I have been eating at Cyclo Noodles for about 4 years now. Their pho is delicious, I have tried their other non pho dishes as well but I stick to the pho mainly. Their egg rolls are decent and spring rolls. I enjoy their pho's flavorful broth and Iove the amount of bean sprouts and jalapeños they give. Their service is always quick. Inside the restaurant is spacious and has an outdoor dining area as well. Their brisket and meatball pho bowls are definitely recommended.

    Fresh Coconut shake
    Elizabeth P.

    If you are in the neighborhood this is a must stop for their fresh coconut shakes. The food is decent but not my favorite. But the fresh coconut shakes are delish. Refreshing and hydrating and not too sweet. It does take a bit of time though even with no other customers haha. It is also very affordable. It used to be $5 but now they've raised the price to $6. Still a great deal!

    This place combines all my favorite southeast Asian foods into one location. The ordering kiosk makes it super easy to browse their whole selection of Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Thai food offerings. I got the Phnom Penh noodle and Thai tea. I seated myself and placed my table number down. While I was in the restroom, my tea and food was delivered to my table - less than 3 minutes wait! The Phnom Penh noodle soup had the right taste and was hot. The portion of meat as well as the side garnishes was perfect for one person. The staff are meticulous at keeping the restaurant tidy and orderly. I also liked that they had water, napkins, and fish sauce at a counter for self-serve. The food was good and hot, service was fast, and I personally like that they have a hands-off approach and let customers enjoy their time inside without rush.

    Came here for the first time because my daughter wanted #16 brisket. The place was clean, and the service was fast. However, we got home and as my daughter was drinking the broth, she stopped and asked me what this black dot in her soup was. It looked like a gnat. It was in fact a gnat...

    Decided to check this location out after finding my original location closed on Mondays. Cyclo noodles will do the job if you've been gone for the week and craving some noodle soup. They have tablets you can order off of and it's self seat after ordering. This is my first time have this type of soup, but it felt lacking. My favorite part about this meal was definitely the fried crueller. I love how it soaks in the soup and dissipates in your mouth. They have a large parking lot , shared with surrounding stores.

    Chilli oil anyone?
    Sean C.

    Great food! I had the cycle pho & it was just right. The broth was balanced, salt, depth...the portion was perfect. I'm usually not big on chili's but the server recommended it. She was very sweet & brought us a serving of chilli oil because "it smells nice." It was great! Not too spicy at all. I finished my bowl to the bottom & enjoyed every drop. It's a clean, simple inviting ambiance with ample parking. I'm definitely returning when I'm ever in the area.

    Chicken curry
    Srey Y.

    Not as authentic as I had hoped. we ordered the Phnom Penh noodle soup and the curry noodle soup - both were subpar or below average. The fried bread was so heavy in dough and that is not the way it should be as you typically use it to dip into your soup. The only thing I did like was their beef sticks.

Still worth the drive to Long Beach to get our fill of very good Cambodian food that I've yet to find up north. Parking was still a challenge and I dropped the family in front of the restaurant first so they can join the waitlist. This time I could only find a spot a few blocks away but by the time I walked back to the restaurant, the family got seated. The menu still had the same great options and prices but starting June 1st prices will be increasing. Definitely understandable in this inflationary environment. My favorite every time has been the loat cha with chicken such that the family knows never to ask what am I getting. We've tried the rest of the menu but the family has standardized on their noodle soups or rice porridge bowls. You can count on lots of ingredients, choices of noodles and rich tasting broths. The cha quai (bread stick) must also be ordered as the perfect pairing for dipping. We also ordered the nom sa-kieu (like a fried meat empananda) again and will continue. We ended our meal with a round of iced coffees for the table, strong and delicious. Not bitter at all. Hopefully we'll be back sooner than later.

She had a long, exhausting day, and the interaction came across as very pushy and lacking patience. I understand restaurants get busy, but customers should still be treated with respect and kindness. I also noticed another situation where a customer walked in asking about splitting tables while standing nearby, and the response felt rushed and dismissive. My dad has refused to eat here before because he felt the service was rude, and after experiencing it myself, I can understand why. Unfortunately, the food did not make up for the experience either -- the soup was bland and not memorable enough for us to want to return. I'm sharing this because I hope customer service can improve and better reflect respect for the community.
