    Pretty bland Combination Pho. Visited this place with family in Stockton, CA and the food was disappointing. A bit flavorless for the Pho Noodle Soup, Fried Rice and the Pad Thai. All 3 we had ordered for ourselves were tasteless for some reason. And the Pad Thai's sauce was weird, not like the usual ones you get at Thai restaurants. Had to add a lot of Chil Oil, Hoisin Sauce, Sriracha and Jalapeños to add flavor to the Pho broth. Meat portions were kind of small and service was so-so.

    This is my go-to spot for Pho in Stockton! Broth is flavorful & delicious, perfect for these chilly evenings. I never stray away from my usual order, #17, Combination Noodle & Vermicelli. The service is friendly & they bring out your orders very quickly, it's great for large groups as they can accommodate for it without having to wait an eternity for your food. Please be advised they only accept cash so come prepared, otherwise there is a Wells Fargo ATM that you can easily walk to.

    I would like to say the food is very very good!! It is a hot fresh and tasty. I would like to say it's definitely not like a usual restaurant, service definitely lacks,but the food is too good to miss out on! Must try 10/10 hidden gem! Make sure to bring enough cash as it is only a cash only.

    TL Noodle is a childhood favorite of mine and I was so excited to come back!! The food is just as good as it used to be. I especially love their combination chow fun because it comes out so hot and fresh. It is so flavorful and delicious! We came this time around a busy lunch hour and while it felt a little chaotic, the servers didn't forget anything we asked for. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is big and has an open setting. It is very spacious inside and does not feel cramped at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The downside of coming here now is that the prices went up a lot. It's roughly $15 a bowl now and they no longer have a small size. It's just one size now, which looks like what was a large bowl before. I still left happy with my meal and I absolutely recommend their egg rice flour cake. So yummy!!

    My All-Time Favorite :  Combo #1 with Big Rice Noodles (Just like what I would order if were TK Noddles)!

    CAUTION to fellow CUSTOMERS: Unless you don't mind paying $1-3 dollars extra more than what your actual bill is, please know that this noodle place can take more $$$ from you without your knowledge. Because the place only takes cash and when you go pay, they do not show the itemized items of all your orders on paper in front of you before pay, you can only trust that what they announced (by mouth) to you is correctly what you need to pay. As a regular customer for many years - I love their noodle soup. At first, I never pay attention. Just eat, go up to the counter, then pay whatever amount they said owed. One day, I was short on cash, so calculated my cash based on the price on menu then add tax and okay looks like have enough for a bowl of soup + tip. But at the counter, found out my bill was actually higher ($2 more) than what I calculated. So okay, just thought maybe I miscalculated, so just pay and move on. But after that, I started noticing more and MORE that my bill was ALWAYS higher than what I would have paid if calculated based on current menu price + tax! Not the confrontation type, I just let go and NEVER return (felt something not right). 2-3 years later, craved their noodle soup, so thought try one more time. There was a new man working (not the regular younger and older lady), so I ate then went up the counter getting ready to ask for clarity should my bill be higher this time. To my surprise, the man did my bill accurately - matching exactly as I had calculated based on current menu price + tax. So, I felt safe to return here again hoping they had changed. Today (Feb. 8, 2024), the new man was not there, but back to the regular younger and older lady. Menu price for small #1 combo = $11.45. 2 orders = 11.45 x 2 = 22.90 + tax (9%) = 24.961. Therefore my bill at counter should be approximately $24.96. I went up, told the younger lady my table #, and without checking the tab or the computer, she just said $26.50. HUH?! With so many customers daily, does she even remember my order & its cost? I asked back..."Are you sure $26.50 because last time I came only paid $24.90 something for 2 small combo's". She pretended to quickly check the computer and repeated my saying "2 small bowls" and now corrected to "24.98". This is it - I am so done. Will not return anymore!

    Food never disappoint. Love me some fat noodles with their bomb chili oil and pickled jalapeños. Even though the chili oil isn't as spicy but it has a good flavor. This spot Reminds me of tk noodle in south sac. I'm glad we have the same type of noodle restaurant in Stockton city. Customer service was okay, kind of the same vibe I get when I go to the south sac location. Prices have increased but that's just part of this economy worked we live in. I'd still go back.

    My first time trying this place out and it seems ok. This is my dad spot for his favorite dish which is # 9, combination wonton noodle. At Vietnamese restaurants I usually order a rice plate but was disappointed that they didn't have what I liked. They have more soup dishes on their menu. We ordered the combination crispy fried noodles. I ended up sharing some of this with my mom. We also ordered an avocado smoothie too. Overall, good spot for some soup and service was quick. Only downside is cash only.

Garlic Noodles: While these were simple, these buttery noodles satisfied our cravings. Rockfish: This was the final dish we all tried, which was a huge portion size.

Safe to say everything was delicious! We started with the grilled garlic butter oysters and wow... super rich, buttery, and packed with flavor. Definitely a must order! Got the garlic noodles too really good, but lowkey wish we had gone with the lobster noodles or blue prawn noodles instead. A picture of them popped up on the TV while we were waiting and they looked insanely good... instant food envy. The dodging cow was another standout. The combo of garlic, steak, and onions just worked so well together tons of flavor in every bite. Juicy and tender with every bite! Also tried the banh mi fries, which were a fun twist. The pickled veggies kept things fresh, jalapeños added a nice kick, and the fries stayed crispy underneath it all. While we waited, I grabbed a Thai IPA, super hoppy, refreshing, and perfect for a warm day. Service was great too. Staff was friendly, attentive, and gave solid recommendations! I wish we would've tried more dishes! Overall, really good eats and a great vibe. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to.

It's also lacking in pepper, and the Vietnamese butter/mayo is also a bit bland. It just tastes creamy and is missing that meat flavor! The combination pate came with this sauce which was slightly savory and a little sweet. It was good and I liked it! They skimp on the proteins though, as I only had about 3 slices of cold cuts in my sandwich and not enough cilantro. You're eating more bread here than anything. The pate chaud was good, really buttery on the outside and the meat inside was tender. Flaky, but could be flakier! The service was really good, but the banh mi was just alright. Most likely won't be returning, I still love Best Sandwiches and Smoothies on Hammer for my banh mi in Stockton!

    Hands down!!! This is one of the best pho places I've ever been to in the Central Valley area. Oh…read moremy goodness, this place was phenomenal! They have a great variety of food and drink selections. There is usually a waiting list, and when we arrived, the restaurant was already packed. We only waited about 5 to 10 minutes to be seated while they finished cleaning a table for us. The restaurant itself is pretty compact, so wheelchair accessibility might be difficult; you would have to squeeze through, as there is limited space. The customer service was okay. While they took our order in a timely manner, getting water refills was a bit lacking. I understand they were busy, but for a restaurant that stays this packed, providing a pitcher of water at the table would be a convenient fix if staff can't keep up with refills. I think adding that small touch would make this place even better, especially since they attract a high volume of customers and serve such high-quality food. Customer Service: 6.5/10 Food Review: * A9 (Chicken Wings Lemon Pepper): These were so good and crispy--my girls absolutely loved them! The portion size was great. They were very flavorful, with just the right amount of seasoning. Lemon pepper can easily become overpowering if it isn't done right, but this seasoning was absolutely perfect. Rate: 8/10 * B1 (Pho Rib-Eye Grilled Beef): I thought it was very interesting how they served the grilled rib-eye beef on the side. It was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and tender, which made for a great dining experience. The broth was good, too. Rate: 7/10 * B3 (Pho Special w/ Combo Oxtail): This was my pho, and I loved it! The meat and oxtail were super tender, and the meat came off the bone so smoothly. I completely devoured all the protein, which rarely happens for me. The broth was amazing. Rate: 8/10 * Brown Sugar Cinnamon Milk Tea w/ Boba: To be honest, I had never tried cinnamon milk tea before and decided to give it a shot. It was just okay for me--it actually reminded me of Fireball alcohol (yuck!). It did start to taste a lot better as the ice melted and diluted the cinnamon flavor, making it less overpowering. Rate: 2/10 Overall Experience: We had a really good experience here. Even though the surrounding location feels a bit rough around the edges, the food itself was amazing. The customer service was decent, and the prices were reasonable. I'd highly recommend that anyone in the area check it out--it is definitely worth it! For parking, there are spots available in both the front and the back of the building. The back can feel a little risky since it's set up like an alley, while the front parking is right by the main road. There isn't a ton of parking space overall, but we were able to find a spot just fine.

Crisp pickled carrots and daikon, plenty of cilantro, and fresh jalapeños brought everything together. It's a well-balanced sandwich with a portion that's just right. The Grilled Chicken Roll'd deserves more attention. The grilled chicken reminded me of a flavorful chicken satay, and the peanut sauce complemented every bite without overpowering the fresh ingredients. If you're looking for a lighter, protein-packed option, this is it. They also offered complimentary strawberry and passion fruit refreshers. They were a little sweeter than my preference, but the flavors were refreshing. Next time, I'd order one at 50% sweetness. The restaurant is clean, inviting, and a welcome escape from the Central Valley heat. Service has always been friendly, and it's the kind of place where both the staff and regulars make you feel welcome. There's also a Tracy location, but I find myself coming back to the Manteca restaurant. It's smaller, more intimate, and has a charm all its own. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by. Great food, great people, and a relaxed atmosphere. I always say, good food brings out the best in people.
