The combination of the different noodle textures is awesome, and the lamb is always flavorful and goes perfectly with the sauce.

If you like lamb and handmade noodles, definitely give LAN Noodle a shot.

I've had these noodles in the Arcadia location and really enjoy their dry fried noodles with the wide noodle. The LAN signature soup noodle is good bc I love the cilantro. The cold apps were alright. Tofu sheets and shredded potato. Hard to get those items on the west side at all so I can't complain. It was over 100 degrees out today. And that place doesn't have AC. Someone should check on their workers. It wasnt super comfortable inside. We ran over to the target next door afterwards, just to cool off and buy some frozen treats. PARKING: Plaza parking is run by Metropolis (which I hate). You got do a QR code and license plate setup online. It was $2/hr and then a $1 service fee.

I have been wanting to try this Michelin ramen restaurant for a while now. Was going to dine in,…read morebut mom needed me to take her somewhere. So had to order Togo. I guess it was a good thing since street parking was very limited. We got the Truffle meat lover ramen w/soft boiled egg. We also ordered a side of the house made Wagyu wontons. I like the comic on the bag. It provided a little description of the owner. Neat! When I opened the container of broth, I could instantly smell the truffle. It smelled so good!! I couldn't wait to mix it with the noodles. I m not one who likes thin noodles, but these noodles were great. So good job on the noodles. When taking a taste of the broth, I got a little disappointed. It was saltier than expected. I didn't want to ruin the original flavor, but I had to squeeze some limes. It was also a bit too oily. I know the truffle played a part in it so I am just sad about the salty part. The Wagyu wontons didn't help. The skin was fine, but the filling was super salty. Yelp photos showing Michelin 2021, 2022, 2023, & 2024. Was the quality better back in the days? I dunno, but 2026 ...SaLTY. Still a good ramen, but I might need to wait till my levels get back on track before eating it again. I didn't go in to pick up the foods, but was told that service wasn't that good...kinda lacking.

Our favs our the spring/green rolls (I literally dream about these rolls and that peanut sauce), spicy basil rice and rib eye, papaya salad, pad thai, sea bass and tom kha kai - my sister-in-law says it's the best she's ever had. Save room for dessert too. Their roti and ice cream dessert and sticky mango are dangerously tasty. Really, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Plus the interior of this place is gorg.

La Ong is now one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the Los Angeles area! The ambiance and overall…read morefeel of the restaurant are intimate, modern, and sleek. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive from the moment I arrived. When I checked in, the host greeted me warmly and had my table ready immediately, even though I had made my online reservation less than 10 minutes earlier. The waitstaff also regularly checked in on me throughout my meal to make sure I had everything I needed. I started with the Thai Limeade, which had a nice kick from the rum and paired perfectly with its zesty, tangy flavor. I also ordered the Brussels sprouts, which I was initially hesitant about because the dish is topped with an over-easy egg. My hesitation was completely misplaced because they were amazing! If you love garlic, you'll definitely love these sprouts. For my main course, I ordered the Crispy Pork Noodles, and flavor-wise, they were incredible. The crispy pork is paired with vermicelli noodles, watercress, egg, and chili garlic, creating a unique and delicious combination that you really have to try for yourself. Another thing worth mentioning is the portion sizes -- they are HUGE! And I'm definitely someone who likes to eat, yet I still brought home a ton of leftovers while leaving the restaurant completely stuffed. Sure, the prices are higher than what I'm used to paying for Thai food, but you have to take into consideration the location -- Beverly Hills on Santa Monica Boulevard -- as well as the fact that the quality of the food is top-notch. In my opinion, the experience and portions make it well worth it. I can't wait to go back because there were so many other dishes on the menu that I wanted to try. If you're a fan of Thai food, I highly recommend checking out La Ong for yourself!

Stopped by Hangari Kalguksu on a cold, rainy day after visiting The Broad, and it hit the spot!…read moreThere was a long line wrapped around the building, but they had a great system of taking orders while you waited, so our food came out almost as soon as we were seated. The valet parking at the tiny mall was also a big help with the crazy crowds. We ordered Tokbokgi to share and then moved onto our entrees- spicy pork bulgogi, kimchi kalguksu, and chicken kalguksu, and the portions were HUGE! Even the adults and teens couldn't finish their meals. We packed most of it home, and the leftovers made for delicious meals the next day. Great food, generous portions, and definitely worth the wait!

The lot is a little emptier now that Sun Nong Dan moved out, but I HATE that they've also started running effectively a parking valet scam as well (aka bring cash in your car and you must hand the keys over). Food is still banging though. Bossam was a little blander than I remember, but it's still perfectly tender, sliced uber thin, and great balance between lean and fatty cuts. Naengmyeon broth is peak with the depth from the beef bones and sweetness as well. Perfectly chewy noodles and the serving size is huge!

The noodles are nice and thick with a really good chew to them, and the sauce is super flavorful and coats everything perfectly. Extremely filling, too. Also tried the cold noodles. If you're used to that super snappy, ultra-chewy traditional style, these are a bit different in texture, but the sauce flavor is so good that I still really enjoyed them. Portions and pricing are super reasonable for LA--starts around $13.95 and it was only a dollar extra to double up on the meat topping. Plus, they have a whole fridge stocked with popular Chinese drinks. I usually go for the white peach Chi Forest sparkling water, but decided to try the pineapple one this time--super refreshing and it cuts right through the rich oil sauce. Super solid spot if you're craving comforting, flavorful noodles!

Considering how well-reviewed they were, I was very underwhelmed. We found ourselves at The Grove…read moreon a Saturday night and decided to check out the Farmers Market. The Farmers Market is such a fun sight to see, with all the different restaurants to explore. I was craving something soupy that night, so I looked up a list of the best places to try at the market. Noodle Art popped up as a highly-reviewed spot, and since I always love to support good Chinese places in trendy spots, I decided to give them a try. Perhaps it's highly rated because of the limited options in the surrounding areas, but as someone coming from the San Gabriel Valley with a myriad of amazing options, I wasn't as impressed. Mediocre is the best way I could describe it. The menu options were slightly limited, but offered a good array of choices depending on whether you were in the market for something soupy, dry, or a rice dish. To start off, I will say their hand-pulled noodles were very good. The wide noodles were nicely thin and chewy, unlike some other hand-pulled noodles I've had where the dough is way too heavy. I tried the #5 with clear broth. However, the broth itself wasn't great. It had a slightly gamey flavor to it, so I'm not sure if they had cooked mutton in it, since that's another menu item they offer. I really didn't care for the clear broth. It also came with a scoop of potato and cabbage.

A great option if you want something more traditional. The staff is always nice and the service is fast, even with how busy they get.

While this may be a factor of it being delivered, the noodles were extremely mushy. Not even slightly softer than al dente, but very bloated. I could not even finish the bowl since the noodle texture made it not that great. The spiciness of the soup seemed to overwhelm the flavor of the broth itself, which was disappointing. However, the portion sizes of both the noodle soup and dumplings were great. I could tell the quality of the ingredients was high, especially with a mountain of vegetables and 3 dumplings already coming with the bowl. The dumplings were soft and honestly the star of the meal, I would've loved a specialty sauce to go with it. The kimchi was SPICY as well but tasty. I don't want to knock it down to 3 stars as I felt like it's unfair that I got takeout, but there's a chance if I'm in town again I would rather try the original kalguksu soup in person for a chance that the noodle soup is a better texture.

The food was equally disappointing. The steak was overly fatty and chewy and not rendered properly, I honestly questioned whether it was actually wagyu. The chow mein came with only four small pieces of meat, which felt unreasonable for the price. For a place positioning itself as upscale Chinese dining, the food felt bland and uninspired. I'd rather go to a local family-owned Chinese restaurant than spend $350 on mediocre food and poor service. To be fair, the manager was very nice and genuinely tried to turn things around with complimentary food and drinks, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the overall experience couldn't be salvaged. In my opinion, this place feels overhyped and carried more by influencer attention than by the actual dining experience.
