Haven't been back here for long time. Still the same decor, same folks (family members & could staff), same old goodies noodle. Easy parking since I was there early in the morning plus the parking lot is big too. The good, down to earth service by the aunt. She remembered all the regular customers, even when they didn't show up for awhile. She asked if I want the same thing that I alway ordered l, and of course I wanted. And just like that I felt at home. A catchup on the place & family. The noodle is the same, consistency and tasted as I remembered. Somehow I got more meats than I remembered but why ask right. It was tasty and goodie. The prices didn't change so that was great. So glad I decided to stop by for some old goodie noodle. read more

I came back here after years because I used to come here as a kid with my mom! I got the dac biet noodles and they were quite yummy, definitely less toppings and lettuce than I remembered/expected but still nostalgic nonetheless. Don't forget to get the chinese donut to go along with it! I was not a huge fan of the fried shrimp dumpling, as it did not have much flavor and just tasted fried. read more

Don't let the picture fool you. It may look like an ordinary egg noodle dish but it's quite a scrumptious meal. The broth is light and clear just like your future that you wish you had lol. A simple egg noodle dish with some roasted chicken or duck with some crispy fried shrimp. But the secret is the sauce... What I recommend is to create your own bang bang sauce on the side to dip your assortment of meats in. My go-to explosion of flavor condiments that I always make is equal parts of 1 spoon full of soy sauce, 1 spoon full of vinegar, 1 spoon full of hoison sauce, and 1 spoonful of sirracha and ask for lemon wedges to squeeze in there. Mix in some pickled garlic and/or jalapenos and you'll thank me later. P.S Don't forget the Chinese donuts! Worth the $15 worth of bowl. Great service and friendly atmosphere. Parking kind of sucks since it's in a very small plaza, but it's definitely a hole in the wall joint. read more

Definition of a hole in the wall. An Extremely sweet and friendly family runs this restaurant. It's not modern, it's not the cleanest, but the food is great as is the service. If you don't speak English they may come off as not, but they really are good people. Food is a 10/10. Prices are extremely fair for this economy read more

Still one of my favorite mom and pop shops for egg noodles. Ive been going to them as a child. I love their mi vit tim. The egg noodles are al dente chewy. The broth is super flavorful and it's reasonably priced. It's very casual. The food comes out pretty fast. The parking lot is small and cramped but there's quite a bit of parking reserved for the restaurant right in front. They take cash and card. Wherever i order takeout, they always show me the food, broth and condiments and ask if I need anything else. I love how homey they make me feel. read more

I was excited to try the roasted duck noodles after hearing reviews online! I came by around 5:15, and saw they close at 5:30. They happily greeted us and we sat and ordered the dry duck noodles ($14). Once we got the food, I noticed there wasn't much duck meat. They asked if we needed anything else and we let them know we were good. I thought the noodles were very chewy and hard to bite. The noodles had decent flavor. It also came with a soup and it was quite salty to me. The staff there were very nice though. I am not sure I would come back unfortunately. Lots of seating inside but ambiance is not very updated and clean. read more

Mom and pops joint. Got the dry version of number one. Next time, I'll try the side of pork meat. They take master/Visa card.

朋友帶我到隔壁的甜點麵吃甜點，可是我都還沒有吃早餐，差點沒有餓死，所以看到這家麵店，進來試試，鴨肉味道很好，湯的味道也好好吃，唯一的問題就是麵比較硬了一點，價格非常的便宜，一碗才$12左右，我又再加了一個豬腰，就稍微太生了些，不過他們的服務很好，還是值得四顆星的 read more

Been here a couple times now and have gotten the Mi Vit Quay, Mi La Cay, Xiu Mai and Dau Chao Quay. Staff was super nice and always checked in on us I like the Mi Vit Quay better than the Mi La Cay personally because the duck makes the broth that much richer in taste. The Xiu Mai was good but the Dau Chao Quay was mediocre. Lots of sauces available as well as pickled Serrano peppers.m, which is a must when eating Hu Tieu or Mi in my opinion. read more

Honestly, the best noodle house in oc hands down! The restaurant might not be modern or fancy, but it simply has the best noodles. Service is exceptional. Everyone treats you as though you are family. They even interact with my kids, and are just so friendly. The noodles itself are nice and chewy, just the way they should be. There is no other place that serves noodles like this! Their sate is also amazing. One of my favorite sauces. read more

Cool little hole in the wall spot that my buddy took me to this past weekend. I was pretty wired from too much coffee and still a bit hungover from the night before but the food was bomb. Ordered the egg house noodle dry and it was solid amount of food. Different meats compared to the noodles places I normally go to but it was legit. Would definitely come back. read more

The posted pictures of the food looked really good. So I decided to give it a try. Parking was terrible. Had to parked a block away and walk to the restaurant. Noodle was okay. The soy bean milk was the same taste as Yeo's brand which I dislike. The Chinese long doughnut was too thick. Probably won't return to this place. Great service though! That's why I give 3 stars for great service. read more

Yesterday I went to this place,we ordered 7 mi khô đặc biệt to go ,omg I'm very upset, just have 1 pice chicken and som pork. The taste is bad ,salty,we're not eat,through the trash,never never come back. read more

My husband loves the pho here. It had plenty of meat and noodles in it and was served at the perfect temperature. My chicken was good but not super flavorful. The rice was at the perfect temperature and the iced tea was good too. The service was good too. This is one of the few places in the area that actually come and refill your drink. It's a small place, but they seem to have many regulars. We will probably return as my hubby wants to try the pork kidneys. read more

I get #18. Mì Khô Dầu Hào Vịt Quay (roasted bbq duck with dry egg noodles seasoned with oyster sauce) with the duck leg. If you like spicy: add the sauté at the table for a extra kick. Make sure you check your to-go because I always request for the duck leg and they don't give it to me!! I wish they would let me know ahead of time if they are sold out of duck legs. The workers here are very nice and sweet. read more

Went with the family and ordered the Mi Dac Biet Egg House Noodle. Mom and I thought the egg noodle was quite hard and the soup was oily. Dad was okay with it though. Verdict: wouldn't go again but that's just our taste buds. It's alright if you're looking for a quick and cheap meal. There seemed to be some locals who were dining at that time too. read more

Seasoned just the way I love it! The broth is the best! I had the bbq pork yellow noodles and not a drop was left:) Friendly service too.

The food was amazing! The service was great and the ambiance was very chill. I got bbq pork rice and the flavor was very good!

The food was SOOOO nostalgic. The owners were so welcoming and their hospitality was truly amazing. Mi La Cay seriously hit the spot. The service was amazing, like, it honestly felt like my mom was the one bringing the food out to me. Super warm, super genuine. You don't get that kind of care at most places. The food is so flavorful. It's the kind of meal that makes you feel full in the best way not just your stomach, but your soul too. If you're ever craving something comforting and delicious, this is the place. read more

Open for take out during COVID. You can call ahead and order for pickup. The noodle soups are so good for such a great price. Each bowl ranges from $7.50 to $8 and they give you a pretty good amount. I typically get the Mi Hoanh Thanh (Egg noodle soup with wontons), Mi Vit (Egg noodle soup with duck) or Mi Dac Biet (Egg noodle with a little bit of everything). They also have Hu tieu (Rice noodle). The broth is always solid (Very flavorful). Don't forget to get some Chinese donuts (It is great to dip in your soup). read more

It's a true hole in the wall. Don't expect great looks of IG worthy pics. But I've been going here since I was little and the food quality has never changed. It's my fav place in OC. I always stop by for some takeout on my way home because this place is it with the Asian comfort food. The owners are the same, it was mom and now daughters run it. They greet us like we're family and the staff helping has also been there for years. It's familiar and warm in that sense. Makes me feel like I stepped back to being 10 years old, it's never changed. read more

I have been going to this place for noodle soups a few years. After CoVid, prices went up and quality went down. I use small amount of MSG in my own cooking and am not allergic to it, but after a bowl of soup here I had headache, high tension in the occipital nerves at the back of my neck and the spinal nerves, all seemed to be on fire, blood pressure also went up, mouth dry and thirsty, like in a huge hang over, not good for health. I am guessing excessive MSG or some harmful chemicals are used in the soup. I was waiting for a Chinese noodle soup bowl in the food court at Lion Plaza in San Jose, saw the owner scoop up half a ladle of MSG and put into my bowl. Shops do this quickly at the end so Health Dept cannot find evidence of excessive chemical use in food to enhance taste and to get clients addicted to their MSG-laden food. I am not allergic to any food, but this place La Cay is one of the few in Little Saigon that gives me food allergy. More healthful and delicious noodle soups maybe found at Hai Lua or De Nhat Hu Tiu, nice clean places with good value and no wait, read more

This restaurant has odd hours but definitely worth catching. It's a hole in the wall noodle shop that makes bomb noodle soup. We ordered 2 Mi Xa Xiu (dry) with a side of Chao Quay & Roast Duck. Everything was soo good. Especially the Chao Quay dipped in the soup & the juicy duck. This is a go-to spot and will always hit your cravings! read more
