My husband’s favorite spot for noodle soup! He always orders the BBQ pork thin rice noodles with intestine. I’ve tried a few dishes, the satay dry beef noodles and wonton noodles weren’t my favorites, but overall everything is pretty good.
Family-run place with smooth, efficient service. We’ve never had to wait for a seat. A reliable and comfortable spot for a satisfying bowl of noodles.

I hope this place sticks around forever, stumbled on this spot after a haircut one day, and I’ve been 4 times now. It’s so good, the sons and the mom are so kind. Fried rice with bbq beef is amazing

A hidden gem in City Heights, run by a kind and hardworking family. It’s an unassuming hole-in-the-wall that serves family style Chinese-Cambodian cuisine. Great bang for the buck with big portions, especially in this economy!!

The salt and pepper series (chicken, tofu, calamari, and shrimp) are a big to-go hit at parties, but taste best freshly cooked for a dine-in meal. Most of their dishes are really good to solid. Definitely worth a try if you’ve never been. You may find yourself going back…again…and again…and again.

Take pride in knowing you’re supporting a local mom and pop shop that’s been around for decades!

Oh my goodness… if you love finding hidden gem/ mom and pop own or privately owned restaurant that are so good, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE! I came here with some friends after a retirement ceremony down town and we tried everything we wanted and it was amazing!!

First we got the Chinese donuts with a side of warm condensed milk, at least I think that’s what it was. The donuts were so delicate but had an amazing crunch and the side dip of condensed milk was just the cherry on top! Just a nice sweet starter. Then we got sat and pepper calamari and salt, salt and pepper shrimp and egg rolls as appetizers (I know it sounds like a lot but I was with a few people) the salt and pepper seasoning on these was absolutely amazing! The peppers were so pronounced but not in an overwhelming way and it complimented the salt on both the calamari and shrimp! It was really such a beautiful stunning and tasty appetizer! We were trying not to take to many at once! The egg rolls were also delicious, nice fresh flavors inside them and just really delicate! My friends ordered the pad Thai which was pretty good. My other fried ordered orange chicken a it was so fresh! It taste like they had just made the sauce five minutes ago from actual oranges! It was so pure! And I got the bone beef stew with rice noodles and oh my goodness it was so wonderful! If you like pho you will enjoy this soup! It is not pho but PLEASE, don’t limit yourself to just pho because there are so many more soups out there! It was so light and fresh and the meat was so tender in it!

The staff was so nice and tentative to us! They were also very welcoming! Ugh I want to go back already!!

Update: came here after so long and oh my gosh it’s just as food!! We order2d Lemon Grass Chicken, Salt and Pepper Popcorn Chicken and Chinese Broccoli. The Lemon Grass Chicken was so good lots of veggies and sauce. The Salt and Pepper Popcorn Chicken was lightly fries and had great flavor. The Chinese Broccoli was served in a home made garlic oysters sauce and it was so comforting! I also ordered the chiesw donuts with sweetened condensed milk and a Thai ice tea that was made on the spot and taste so fresh and authentic. I love this place!

Great soups! Fair portions and prices. Favorites are duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the combo egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. The taste of the broth is rich and exceptional. The duck isn’t overly fatty or mostly bones as is the case in other duck soup restaurants. This is an example of a mom & pop restaurant that takes pride in their food and wants to serve the best to their customers. The owner is super friendly and makes you feel like a guest at her home. Update: We got the duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the combo egg thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. Both were excellent as usual! If you are having trouble deciding which soup to get, you can’t go wrong with the combo. It has BBQ pork, duck, chicken, shrimp, ground pork, and fish balls. Update: Prices have increased, but still excellent quality. Update: Got the duck egg wide egg noodle soup and the beef and meatball thin egg noodle soup, both dry w/soup and bone on the side. The duck soup was excellent and the beef soup was very good. Update: Got the large duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the large combo egg thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. Both were excellent. Update: Got the large duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the Sate Beef egg thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup on the side. Both very very tasty. Update: Got the large duck egg wide noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; and the large combo clear thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. Both were excellent. The upgrade to a large soup charge has increased to $2, and the soup dry with bone soup on the side now has a $1 charge. Update: Got the regular duck egg wide noodle soup and the beef drunken noodles. The duck soup was excellent as usual. The drunken noodles were not Thai style, but were very good. Update: Got the Seafood Pad Thai and the Duck Wide Egg Noodle soup. Both were very tasty. However, the calamari in the Pad Thai was a little rubbery, so just getting the shrimp version would be best.Update: Got the large duck egg wide noodle soup; and the large combo clear thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side. Both were excellent. Update: Got the regular duck egg wide noodle soup; the large combo egg thin noodle soup, served dry w/soup and bone on the side; the basil beef entree; and fried bread. Everything was excellent! Update: Got the regular duck egg wide noodle soup. Excellent as usual! Update: Got two regular combo soup with added wontons, one with thin egg noodles and one with wide egg noodles. They were both excellent. Update: Got the regular duck egg wide noodle soup with added wontons, and a combo egg thin noodle soup with added wontons. Both were excellent.

I fell in love with their fried rice!! We live in the area and found incredible reviews on this restaurant. One day we came to try their food and it was absolutely delicious. Just like the other reviews this place is a hidden gem here in City Heights. I always get the same order which is the House fried rice. Their food comes in big portions and I love to have left overs to enjoy the next day! I highly recommend this Chinese noodle restaurant to anyone!

Soup noodles are the best. You can’t go wrong with their soup noodles! The broth is loaded with yummy, fried garlic and is very flavorful. Fish congee is also very good. Some of the dishes are ok.

Was curious about how much Khmer food I would find there. A great fusion. Small, busy restaurant. Table service was great! Cambodian+Chinese+knowledgeable chefs made for great food. Food was flavorful and I could tell the broth was homemade. Having the choice of noodles was a huge plus. We chose the flat rice noodles which is my preference in noodle soup. Only thing my dining partner complained about: bone-in cuts of neck meat served in the soup. I would order extra meat next time but generally noodle soups do not come with much.

I always try the pin noodles wherever I see them served and not only was it full of flavor, the chicken was tender and well flavored which is a nice surprise considering many restaurants do not focus on the meat in stir fry noodle dishes.

Nice extra: chili oil was spicy. Haha. Rare these days. You know they care because it’s a necessity.

Everybody seemed accommodating and nice. I would go back any day.

IS INFLATION A MYTH? How did they whip up our food in like 3 minutes? Why did my huge portion of soup (pictured) that came with 2 slices of duck, 2 shrimps, meatballs, a drumstick, a bit of pork and my choice between different types of rice or egg noodles, only cost 11.50? My buddy got the bone marrow soup (not pictured) and it was only 5 bucks! Quality food perfect for struggling students in the area (lol), hearty and healthy. The soups taste like pho soup btw.

Whatever garlic sauce/pieces they use are are also packing with flavor. They put it in our soups and also in the popcorn chicken. Just one thing to note though, all the garlic deliciousness are in one spot on popcorn chicken plate. I recommend picking some up and eating in conjunction with a piece of popcorn chicken.

Will be back. Prices like this are like a relic of the past that we need to take advantage of! What a gem of a place.

This is a hole in the wall place with an amazing variety of delicious food. Although the place doesn’t look clean, surprisingly, the restroom is fairly clean.

The salt and pepper wings and shrimps are amazing. The chinese sausage fried rice was flavorful. The vietnamese style sour soup was small but tasty. We order a couple of shave ice with everything included for the kids. It was large enough for us to help the kids.

Overall, great food at a fair price. Parking is tight. Try to avoid the rush hour and you won’t have a problem with parking.
