    House special #1 with 1/2 egg noodle and rice noodle
    Zoe I.

    Legacy noodle house my family has been coming to for generations. One would say an example of the American dream. They have kept the recipes the same and have consistently deliver top quality homestyle noodle soup . The place is very homey and service is fast - aunties are on their game. Cash only

    Top- pan fried chive pockets. Bottom- pan fried rice cake. Both vegetarian! They dont fry in animal fat, only vegetable oil :)
    Suzanne W.

    Update on my vegetarian review. I am a pan fried rice cake w/soy sauce loyalist, but there is another item (NOT on the menu) that I also really like. It's a pan fried chive pocket. The only filling is chives, no egg or lil shrimps or glass noodles that is commonly found in other chive pockets/dumplings. Each order comes with 3 pieces roughly the size of my palm. Of note, it is served with a fish sauce which is very not vegetarian. But I highly recommend it!!

    #9 pork variety dried noodles. Use egg flat
    Khaing Z W.

    The ladies there were really nice . I ordered 18 orders and they were able to get everything right and generous with sauces and pickled chili. They even came after me in the parking lot to give me plastic bag seeing I was holding 3 boxes in hand. Taste - beef stew has lots of tendon and melting mouth beef so good. The MAIN reason we ordered from here was their dried noodles dishes. Item number 1 thru 14. Try with flat egg noodles. # just like SiChet KautSwe in Yangon

    House special egg noodles with soup on the side.
    Betty M.

    One the stable SGV restaurants for noodles dishes. They have several locations throughoutSGV areas. Pick one and you will not be disappointed. We ordered the house special dry noodles and soup with 2 fish balls served on the side. Have the options to mix your egg or rice noodles. Mine was the classic, regular egg noodles for the house special. Has shrimp, minced pork, chicken breast strips and a pork kidney. Add the provided condiments of saté chili sauce, pickled jalapeños and soy sauce. Pretty basic place, no frills and the service always fast. Was a good hardy meals for less than $14. This place takes CASH only so dont forget to bring the Benjamin.

    Hu Tieu #1
    Elise L.

    An oldie and an okay-ie. There's a way better spot up in San Jose but this'll do I guess. * Hu tieu #1 with thin and thick rice noodles (3/5) - thin rice noodles are the way to go for me! Pork and shrimp broth has msg flavor. Filled w lots of pork bits and 1 piece of kidney * Bot chien (4/5) - parents really enjoyed the crisp edges I'd like to try the dry style next time. Love the ambiance of an older spot, cash only, and only older folks dining in. Our server was a really sweet auntie.

    Fish w/ flat rice noodles
    Brian C.

    Been coming here since I was a kid. Came back here recently since I was craving comfort food of rice noodles. The interior honestly has not changed at all for all these years. Most of the workers didn't really speak English, but I still managed to get by. Their menu now had pictures I could just point to. Ordered my usual of Fish with Rice Noodle. One thing I noticed was how much more expensive it's gotten. A bowl of rice noodles used to cost $6.50, and now it's gotten up to $15.50! It was still delicious as I remember, but man... times are tough now. And they still are a Cash Only business. Unfortunate for me since I really don't carry cash on me much anymore, but I thankfully was able to scavenge enough cash in my bag and car. Even after all the years, Kim Ky still holds up. Just unfortunate how expensive everything has gotten. They have a parking lot in the front which is fine when it's not too crowded, but during peak hours, there can often be a traffic jam of people trying to park and people trying to exit.

    Beef Chow Fun with Satay Sauce
    Oscar B.

    They've got probably one of the best hu tieu in LA here, which is likely why they are still here after decades. The soup is light but still has great flavor. The flat rice noodles go really well with the soup. And the kidney inside this bowl of noodle soup is so tender and good. The house special chow fun and beef chow fun with satay sauce are decent but not as good as the hu tieu. You could probably get better chow fun dishes at a good Hong Kong cafe. I'd focus on getting the hu tieu here.

    Ribs in Black Bean Sauce w/ Rice Noodle
    Michelle A.

    When walking in, you can tell from the vibes, that you are going to be taken care of pretty well. The servers were so attentive and sweet. There was a hefty menu and my friend said she wanted to order everything because it all looked so good & I'd have to say I agree. I ordered number 18, the Ribs in Black Bean Sauce w/ Rice Noodle with the egg noodles. All our food arrived promptly and steaming. The broth was so rich and tasty. The noodles were cooked to perfection. The ribs were fall off the bone as well. The restroom was pretty clean and spacious. The only thing to look out for is that the parking is quite small and the restaurant accepts cash only. Would come here again & try the rest of the menu.

    Kim Ky is different from kim kee and it's 2 separate restaurants so don't get them mixed up. Both are really similar and both have their signature fish fried fish cakes. Kim Ky has 3 locations: San Gabriel Blvd in San Gabriel and Garvey Ave in Rosemead and one in Westminster. Make sure you bring CASH because it's cash only! Food is decent! Service is great! Servers are friendly and helpful! Make sure you order their fried fish cakes because it's one of their signature dish. Similar review as I left for the other location, For the food alone, i would give it a 4 star. Interior is old and not as clean so I would give it a 3.5. I want to give them a better rating because this place is classic and they have been serving the SGV for such a long time with consistent quality of food.

    Beef satay noodles I will order here again for sure! Nutty grainy all in the good ways Breakfast time was not busy Boss and employees or are sweetest Warm tea at 9am was nice Cash only People were all good vibes Parking was kind of perfect to seating Might get a bit busy

    Fried chicken with rice.
    Lance H.

    Food, service were fast and excellent. Restaurant was quiet until this guy gets on his speaker phone talking so loud you could probably hear him across the street, not the restaurants fault, just a person with no respect for others. I wanted to try something different and the chicken did not disappoint. I went with 2 other people and they ordered noodles so their food came quick. The waitress did tell me ahead of time my chicken would take 20 minutes, well worth the wait!

As an employee, she should have been setting an example and treating customers fairly--not using her position to give preferential treatment to a friend. What made the situation even worse was that I brought it to the staff's attention, and instead of taking the complaint seriously or even acknowledging what happened, they simply brushed it off. That kind of response shows a complete lack of respect for customers. It's one thing for an employee to make a poor judgment call; it's another for management or staff to dismiss a legitimate concern afterward. Customers should not have to wonder whether the rules apply equally to everyone. I left feeling completely disregarded and disappointed. Based on this experience, I would think twice before returning.

For appetizers we ordered the Takoyaki, chicken karage and our main dishes Deluxe Tsukemen x3. The Break down: Atmosphere: 4/5 They greet you as you walk in, which I sets the vibe. You're welcomed into a cozy apace that has some decorative elements even to the music choice. Reminds me of our trip to japan, which I MISS SO MUCH! The Food Takoyaki: $8.95. 4/5 Stars. - Comes in 5pcs with sauce and bonito flakes. I liked how the outside was a bit crunchy and inside was fluffy! Karage: $8.95. 5/5 Stars - Comes in 5pcs. The sauce was tangy sweet kind of like teriyaki sauce. It was crispy but still so juicy and soft. HANDS DOWN GET THIS! Loved it so much I could have a whole bowl Tsukemen: $22.45. 5/5Stars - If you aren't familiar with this, the broth is separate from the noodles. Its a different way of experiencing noodles. The broth is thick, creamy and flavor profile is on point. Inside of the broth there is mushrooms and pcs of pork. The noodles are cooked perfectly and also comes with pcs of nori, soft boiled jammy eggs and 4 pcs of thick chashu. Portion size lets just say they are generous and we all can EAT ^^, Kakigori (MATCHA) $8/$14. 5/5 Stars - Definite MUST! Its made with Japanese shaved ice, a very creamy soft cream matcha sauce and matcha powder! I cant tell you how good this dessert is. The wife is obsessed and one if the main reasons why we found this spot in the first place. Please try! Service: - Super friendly staff! They are quick to get our order and serve our meal. I asked for more limes for my noodles 2x and both times they were quick. Made us feel very welcomed and checked in on us on a regular, which also reminded us of the service Japan showed us once upon a time. Overall: We love this place and we keep coming back with new people to share this type of noodle experience. Check them out im sure you will enjoy it. Lets just say we drove an hour to eat this. You def will not be disappointed :)

Not a fan of bean sprouts but will eat if I need to, but in this case - it totally overwhelmed the dish. There also wasn't enough rice noodle for me. Everything else was good, but that kinda blew it for me. Also got the spicy soup with beef and tomatoes. This is more of a gentle burn in spice they slowly works its way up.
