    Boat Noodle
    Peter X.

    I came here yesterday to grab lunch for my family after my sister landed from Sacramento. She loves the duck noodle here and my mom loves their boat noodle. So I placed the order over the phone, I also got chicken fried rice for my wife, chicken basil for my nephew with no rice and my dad wanted the Suki Yaki noodles. Everything was at medium spicy except my nephew chicken basil since he can't eat spicy. I was told it would take about 20 minutes and I live close to this place. When we arrived in the afternoon, we got the parking in the front of the restaurant. I say they accept credit card now because before it was cash only. You just have to spend at least $10 minimum to pay with a card. They made our order quick because we arrived early but it was ready. They packaged the food great and there was no leak. My sister loved her duck noodle, my mom loved her boat noodle, my dad loved his Suki Yaki, my wife enjoyed her chicken fried rice and my nephew like his chicken basil. I would come back here again since my family loves this place.

    They still got it! Definitely come and try! Still the best around, great food and good friendly service. Worth it, every time! The wok char on the fried rice and the pad see ew is perfect too!

    Pad sew

    I just realized that I never made a review for Ras Noodle, I love this restaurant and had been coming here forever. My top two favorite dishes here are the Doo Dee noodles and the shrimp pad sew. I've tried the majority of their dishes over the years and everything is great! The dishes with wok char, like the fried rice and noodles, always have the perfect amount of flavor and aroma. I can only get mild spicy here because their spice level is true Thai spice and medium is not obtainable for me lol The service is always friendly and efficient, no frills but always clean. I love their green chili in vinegar condiment. Parking lot is shared, small, and the spots are tight but doable.

    Boat noodle (thin rice noodle)
    Katherine P.

    Everything we ordered was packed with sooo much flavor. We ordered the boat noodle soup, duck noodle soup, tom yum noodle soup, and broccoli and deep fried pork over rice. We ordered some items medium and some mild. I can take some heat but not much. The medium spice was definitely too hot for me. Even though my mouth was on fire, my taste buds were still loving the flavors of everything. The broth for all the soups had so much flavor. You have a choice of 4 different kinds of noodles : egg noodle, flat thick noodle, pho rice noodle and thin rice noodle. Boat noodle and duck noodle were my favs out of the soups that we ordered. The pork in the broccoli and deep fried pork was so crispy and the sauce added such a nice touch of flavor. I would definitely order that again. The restaurant is pretty small but we ordered to go and our food was ready when we got there.

    Beef with basil

    Very disappointing!!!! I was excited to eat my meal and then I opened my to go order and saw this ! $20 for a a bowl of rice because the beef with basil on rice came with 5 pieces of small beef. For anything other than soups don't bother ! I know the economy is bad but ripping people off should sit wrong with them! Just go to little ocha down the street ! They give a plentiful amount.

    I've been coming here about 2x monthly when I work in the area. I LOVE their yen ta fo. It's the best I've had in the LA area compared to the top Thai restaurants in Thai Town. Their broth is so garlicky, sweet, sour, spicy, and delicious. Service is good. Ambiance is casual. I love how their soups are consistently made and delicious.

    What an amazing hidden gem. Happy that I found it. Soups are amazing, topping and noodle choice is great. Friendly service as well.

    Thai tea

    The best ! All the food is great & staff is so nice. Never disappoints. I usually get the pad Thai & shrimp fried rice or chicken fried rice. As well the duck noodle soup. Fire! My kids favorite is their tai tea tried so many but nothing beats this one

    Amazing hole in the wall in the valley:) it's located in a tiny plaza but dw plenty of seating inside so u can order to go or dine in We got Thai sausage , roast duck over rice w gravy, and the boat noodle medium spice (beware med spice is pretty spicy esp if ur white!) everything was amazing. Love the extensive and authentic menu selection. Only thing is I wish they gave me some more duck but ik economy is tough rn.. Plus the total for everything was only $42!!!!! Service was quick & efficient ! Nothing crazy but they are extremely attentive and refilled our waters twice as well as delivering food freakishly fast. 10/10 will def be back and u should too :)

    Much like on previous visits, everything was excellent t. In fact it the Boat Noodles were even better than ever. The papaya salad was the perfect amount of spice

    Tom yum noodle soup  Duck noodle soup
    Sharon K.

    We initially came in to get the mango sticky rice but ended up coming back for dinner because we were so charmed by this small business. The mango sticky rice is famous for being so good and the portion and taste was great. For dinner we got the tom yum noodle soup and the duck noodle soup. We ordered mild but as expected from a Thai restaurant the mild was full of flavor and more spice than mild but it was so good I couldn't stop eating even though my sinuses were sweating. The ladies that run this shop were full of smiles and although they don't talk much it was such a comforting environment. We will be back! This is a solid mom and pop that deserves your support.

    I think this was the number three clear broth. I took had it with chicken

The sea urchins one is creamy and VERY RICH. The cream sauce bend in really well with the sea urchins. But definitely not something you would order if you are on a weaker stomach. The duck udon is flavorful with plenty of meat. The soup pair perfectly with the udon as well. There was a line outside before it opened. But not too bad. They got a little eating area outside right next to the street and I saw people ate there with their dog as well. I guess that they are "kinda" dog friendly?

    7/19/2026 3 1/2…read moreStars Not my first time here, but my first review on Yelp. Been awhile since I was last here. UDON KAKE It was good, but the broth was a bit salty at first. Udon noodles were good, but it was not excellent. It did have light chewy texture. BUT in comparison to Meiji Seimen, it fell short, really short! I was disappointed. BEEF BOWL It was delicious! Beef was tender and moist and loved the caramelized onion too. Rice was delicious too, not dry nor mushy. Served with pickled red ginger. A very satisfying bowl. Sat at the bar, so watched them make udon from scratch, which was nice. WAIT LIST There was a line when I got there, just as it opened. It wasn't long, but everyone wrote their name down on a wait list. There's a sheet of paper placed on the table outside. Please write your name down ASAP, as that will help in making sure that you will grab a seat. Also, the lines are disorganized too, so it's best to write down your name, so no one cuts in front of you. It is a small restaurant. Limited seats. CUSTOMER SERVICE It was okay. Everyone got in the restaurant in the order they came in. Service was quick and there were no delays in taking orders. The server came by quickly and dropped off the check as she saw that I was nearly finished with my meal. PARKING Parked at Joe's Autoparks. It was $15! I did not know until after I paid the ticket. Very difficult to find parking in this area, so not many options unless you want to walk really far, back to your car in 90 degree heat. There was another parking garage next to Joe's, but the price was the same! Would I come back again? Not sure. Given that the udon wasn't what I expected, it may be my last time here. Also, parking sucks.

    I had always heard about this place from my food research and it was further reinforced by a friend…read morewho recommended this to us. We came as a group of 9 and thankfully, they allow for reservations if you are a group of 8 or bigger. Take note! Especially in this LA peak heat. We checked in with the valet and they gave us menus as we waited about 15/20 minutes for the table to be ready. You will need to order before you are seated and you cannot order anymore food once you are seated, given how popular they are, this makes plenty sense. We were seated inside with cooling AC and the restaurant is quite large inside! It could certainly have several parties in there. Soon, our galbi kalguksu, XL chicken kalguksu, tteokbeokki and XL pork jowl and pork belly bossam showed up. Everything was extra delicious and fresh. The soups in both the galbi and chicken kalguksus were amazing and the hand pulled noodles were divine. We drank and ate everything up quickly. The tteokbeokki was delicious, but too spicy so the rest of the party was able to enjoy it. The bossam was all so tender and had just enough napa and garlic to go with it along with the many unique sauces we could dip all the meats in. Everyone left feeling happy and it satisfied everyone's palates.

It was one of my favorite spots for kalguksu, so I was excited to come back. We visited on a Saturday around 2:00 PM. The first thing that stood out was the wait. There was a line outside despite there being numerous vacant tables inside the restaurant. I'm not sure why customers were expected to wait outside, especially during the current LA heat wave, when seating appeared to be available. While waiting, we were given menus. The first thing I noticed was the price increase. The clam kalguksu is now $22.99, which felt quite expensive, even accounting for inflation. Once seated, we were served the rice with doenjang paste and the three varieties of kimchi. Unfortunately, I found almost all of the kimchi to be noticeably saltier than I remembered, with the exception of the radish kimchi, which was enjoyable. I honestly don't remember the kimchi tasting this salty in the past. It even made us wonder whether it was intended to discourage customers from requesting refills, though I hope that wasn't the case. We ordered the new beef rib kalguksu and the clam (bajirak) kalguksu. The beef rib broth was overwhelmingly salty for our taste, to the point that I mentioned it to our server. The hand-cut noodles themselves were still excellent, but I also noticed that the clam kalguksu contained significantly fewer clams than I remember from previous visits--roughly half the portion I used to receive years ago. The noodles remain well made, but it's difficult to justify the current price when the portions seem smaller and the broths are considerably saltier than before. What originally made this restaurant special to me was its fresh, clean-tasting broth, flavorful kimchi, and generous amount of clams. Unfortunately, my recent visit didn't live up to those memories. With so many excellent kalguksu restaurants in the area, I don't see myself returning. I understand that restaurants evolve and may adjust recipes to appeal to a broader customer base, especially since most of the diners during my visit appeared to be non-Korean. However, I genuinely miss the balanced flavors, generous portions, and value that made this restaurant stand out years ago.

Daikokuya is located…read moreon the perimeter of the Little Tokyo plaza and on a busy strip against other very popular ramen places. To be clear, you really can't go wrong with any of the restaurants on this street and I recommend just going with whichever one has the shortest wait when you show up. Thankfully we only had to wait about 20 minutes and got a table inside. There were 6 of us and they made us squeeze into a booth built for 4 which was a little annoying but we made it work. I ordered their signature Daikoku Ramen which was very flavorful and filling, just wish there had been more meat! My husband got the poke bowl with salmon and tuna which is a great dish for those on the protein grind. Service was mixed, they brought some dishes out immediately and then others in our group had to wait longer to get their food. Overall food was tasty and I would go back.
