Kim Sun might be a small, cozy hole-in-the-wall spot, like a classic mom-and-pop kitchen. I often stop by here to pick up some food for the family when we're feeling lazy about cooking or just unsure of what to eat. Their crispy noodle, mee katang, dry noodle Phnom Penh, never disappoints. This time, I noticed the crispy noodle looks a bit thinner and a tad sweeter, but it's still really tasty. Service is always good, quick, and efficient. I've never had any issues. I highly recommend calling ahead to check if they're open before heading over. read more

Kuy teav is crazy good. Can't believe how delicious the broth is. Definitely a home style feel tucked in a corner. I have had kuy teav at other fancier soup spots, but this is definitely way better than any other spots. I highly recommend this spot for those around the area that is looking due to limited Cambodian spots in the area. read more

I was craving mee katang on this side of town so I found myself here. I ordered the mee katang with beef ($12.75) and a fried egg. They load the noodles up with plenty of vegetables which I greatly appreciated. The mee katang was good and exactly what I was looking for. While I do prefer a thicker gravy, this satiated my craving. Kim Sun is a quiet mom and pop shop. The menu is straightforward and the restaurant itself is cozy. Perfect for a quick and easy lunch. read more

A sweet place to get comfort food. This local spot has been around for years. Even though it's new owners, it's still a great establishment with the same great taste and recipes. My favorite go-to is their Hainan chicken or beef loc lak. Ice coffee is 5/5, you just have to try it for yourself. Service is always quick and everything seems to always be cooked fresh. The ambiance is very comforting and well-maintained. read more

I was hesitant to write a review, in case the food was good. I went and first off customer service was horrible. I asked for rice and beef w/ broccoli and stir fry noodles with beef. She then repeated noodle soup so I said no soup, stir fry. She said she didn't understand, understandable but she tossed the menu at me saying just point. The total was almost $36. Which was iffy to me but whatever. Fine okay, when she hands me my order I asked if there was soy sauce, she never once looked up at me and said in there. I asked for chopsticks ( seeing as how there's two people and two plates) she tossed one on the counter still not looking up and I asked for another one. She then tossed them on the counter without saying anything or looking up. When I got home there was a chicken soup on top of my two plates, so she charged me something I didn't want. The noodles WERE HORRENDOUS. I had to pull them apart by hand, they were sticky and all stuck together (picture provided after I tried pulling them apart myself) there was only one soy sauce and the beef was super chewy and hard to break down. This was a very horrible experience here. read more

Unfortunately, this place is a miss. 1. Flies all over and a dead fly was in my bowl of noodles. Also, there was a staple in my bowl of noodles! Yes, a staple from a stapler! How does that happen? 2. All of the drinks were not available- they ran out of the powder to make them. It is not made fresh, yet they do not even have the supplies to make any of the drinks. The service was nonexistent. This restaurant has about 4 tables or so. It's on the smaller side, most people order to go or eat here for a quick bite. However, I won't be back. read more

Picking up Mama Lê's favorite dish for her birthday seafood egg noodles. I got the Phnom Penh noodle soup, and chicken chop suey. Broth was perfect for this rainy weather in Cali this morning. The famous Noodle Shack was packed, so I went up the street to another small local favorite to try theirs for the first time, it did not disappoint! And for $8 a giant bowl?! That's a steal. Dad hasn't eaten much lately and hasn't enjoyed his food, so he has lost a lot of weight. He ate his whole bowl! read more

I'm so grateful to the owner of this restaurant ( Pu Dara ) I accidentally left my wallet behind, and not only did they keep it safe, but he even drove all the way to my house to return it. I didn't even realize it was missing until my aunt called me. Their honesty and kindness really touched me -- you don't find that everywhere. Thank you so much! read more

I previously reviewed this place as a one star. The reasons being that the staff was extremely biased towards Cambodian-speaking people, and didn't pay attention to everyone else. More specifically, they would not check up on you, hurried you to take your order, and failed to acknowledge that you've been waiting at their counter to pay for your meal. I've been there about 4 times since the last time, twice with my sister (Cambodian-American who doesn't speak much Khmer), and twice by myself. Let me tell you how it went. It went surprisingly well! The waiter the first two times with my sister gave us water and a jug to refill our drinks as needed. This is an amazing idea for the workers so they don't have to pay attention to us all too much. They still loomed over us while we thought about what to eat, but we decided pretty fast. And after we got our dishes, everything looked extremely yummy! The waiter still didn't really ask us if everything was okay, but it's still an improvement from my previous times going. Now when I went by myself, I can tell you that it went pretty much the same as it was when I went with my sister! I was given a cup of water, and a water jug. I told them what I wanted, and they brought it out really fast, but the quality was amazing still. They, again, didn't check up to see how everything was--but at this point, I'll take what I can get. I didn't feel any disdain or discomfort going into the restaurant, and it actually felt good to eat there! Side note: they turned on the AC when it was hot, so that's a big bonus in my book! Overall, a small, but massive improvement to the staff's attitudes, and customer care made it so that place didn't feel as dreadful and hate-filled as before. Good work so far! Definitely some work needs to be done about the interior, and the flies getting in though. read more

Even though it's the only Khmer restaurant in the north of LB, the taste and quality of authentic Khmer food competes with the likes of ones in Cambodia Town east of LB. I always come here during rainy days for Phnom Penh noodles. The bowl never lets me down. Also, the beef sticks were surprisingly good. They didn't skimp on the meats, which had no fat, on the stick. read more

This place is such a hole in the wall. It's a small restaurant with only 8 tables so it's best to come early in the morning. Especially on weekends. I always order the Hai Nam Chichen with Bai Cha. (Steamed chicken with fried rice instead of white rice) my partner introduced me to this combo and it's a game changer! It also comes with a small side of bone marrow broth, cucumber, and a delicious garlic sauce. My partner orders the Beef Noodle Soup, it's packed with flavor! Just make sure to add lime, hoisin sauce, sriracha, and the bean sprouts. For drinks, we order the Thai iced tea and Iced coffee. 10/10. Service is good. There's always one woman handling the front so if you come here please be patient, and kind! read more

This place is like a hidden gem. It's family owned n operated. The lady at the front was very nice and attentive, she greeted us and proceeded to help us. She asked us for here or to-go (we were doing a to-go order) she handed us clean menus. We ordered: -Lot cha with beef, 5/5 (yummy, i love lot) -Beef fried rice, 5/5 (a good amount of beef) -Chicken rice porridge, 3/5 (not pictured, it was more like rice soup n less like porridge) -Wonton soup w/noodles, 5/5 (DELICIOUS, wontons (plump) n a lot of cha sur pork, shrimp, veggies n mushroom FIRE!!) -Salt and Pepper shrimp, 5/5 (crispy, salty, peppery goodness) -Beef Lok Lak, 3/5 ( my friend was raving about this cuz that's always his order, but this time it was bland, it came with sauce but that was blandish also) We will definitely come back n try other dishes n the menu. read more

Got the hainan chicken and it was all bone and no meat. They only give good customer service when you are Cambodian. My gf is Cambodian and I've been here with her family and every time, I get good service and good food but when I come here by myself, I don't even get a simple hello or a polite greeting. How are you going to pass a chicken joints for a piece of chicken. It's all cartilage and skin! read more

This place is a true hole in the wall Cambodian gem in Lakewood! We come here often for a quick lunch during work and always love the food. The restaurant itself looks like you are sitting in someone's dining area with the kitchen behind you and that homey feeling transmits in the home-cooked lovely flavors. This is a family run business and they are so nice and welcoming with everything they prepare. I always get their Beef Noodle soup which has an array of spices in the broth. Every main dish comes with a side of Bone Marrow Broth which is a nice treat as well. This place has become a staple for everyone in our office read more

My favorite dish to get her is the beef lok lak my favorite can't go wrong with that or the stir fry lemon grass the drinks are good here too!! read more

I don't understand why this lady has an attitude. We are paying customers. Learn to smile and wait for people to finish ordering before you walk away from them. I miss the old owners so much. At least they had respect and appreciation for their customers. read more

Ordered Togo today 08-18-2023. Asked for sauce. She looked annoyed and gave me and empty container and pointed at the vacant tables to go to, to fill it myself. Customer service is little to none. That's fine. I'll survive. Then later found a piece of metal in my food. Looks like a piece of metal dish scrub. it's used to clean dirty things and it was in my mouth. I ordered chicken cha lok lak (fried noodle) it was Poorly fried. Noodle strands weren't separated properly. Weird smell to it. 0 stars from me. I won't be supporting this business anymore due to lack of customer service and cleanliness. read more

Kim Sun Kitchen - Beef Stew - Chinese Near Me - Long Beach, California

Kim Sun Kitchen is the kind of restaurant that makes me proud to be a Long Beacher. The Cambodian community adds so much history, richness, diversity, and vibrancy to this large SoCal city. The building is small and adjacent to lot parking with plenty of space. It's easy to miss if you don't know precisely where it is. The noodle soups are where you should gravitate towards. The large Beef Stew is what hit the spot for me on a cool Fall afternoon. It was warm, deep, and flavorful with just enough spice. You have plenty of spices and sauces on the table to add as much flavor variety as you please. The portions are immensely generous for the affordable prices. The broth is unlike any I've ever tasted. The entire experience was truly a special LBC lunch that I'll think of fondly. read more

Always a place to go when you need food made with love. Their soup is perfect when you aren't feeling well.

I have been here a few times and the food is usually decent. Two days ago, my husband and I decided to come back, because we didn't feel like driving further. We asked if the beef stew came with bread, she said they ran out of bread... ok. Hubby wanted to order a smoothie, she said they do not have any smoothie powder and only had Thai tea available. The smoothies aren't even made with frozen fruit, let alone fresh, but you dont even have the powder available?! I ordered the wonton noodle soup. He had the beef stew noodle soup. Everything tasted decent until, there was an annoying fly buzzing around which isn't really their fault. Next, I found a piece of plastic wrapper in my noodles. The tripe in my husband's beef stew soup has so much hair on it left, THEN!!!! He found a dead ladybug floating in his soup. I wanted to say something so bad, but I just left it alone. We paid and left. Now, we are Asian as well. We already know that these places do not have good service, but for crying out loud, if the service isn't decent; make sure items are available and that the food is food! No plastic, no hair, no ladybug! The lady serving us, looked and sounded like she couldn't wait to leave and yet we were the only customers at the time. Everything else that followed, was unacceptable. We are done with this place. Never again. read more

Under new management. I had order the salt and pepper shrimp and lot cha. Salt and pepper shrimp- was eh. The shrimp wasn't crispy, and there was no seasoning on it. But I guess the lemon pepper dipping sauce help! Lot cha- have noooo flavor! They didn't stir fry the beef with any seasoning sauce. It was just grill in oil I suppose!?! :/ but the fish sauce will help. Overall, I will only come back if I'm desperate and don't want to drive to the eastside read more

Regardless of its lack of cleanliness and sanitation, I'd still occasionally visit this place. Sadly today I had the worst experience, this lady refused to give me a menu and said they don't have any. She said everything is on the board, which I know it was a lie. So I just sat down and opened yelp to look for that one dish I like. She didn't even bothered asking if I wanted water. I did ask a few minutes after but nothing came. When the food arrived I saw her fingers touching the spoon, fork, and straw of my coke beverage. What made it more disgusting is that during my meal, I saw her picking her nose. So God know where those hands touch when it touch my utensils. I feel so disgusted. Overall this place has bad service and Poor hygiene. read more

Called here to make an order, and I was hung up on. Called again because I assumed it was due to connection...I placed my order and there was dead silence so I asked "did you hear that?". She replied with a rude "yeah". Apparently that made the lady mad (I'm assuming) and she hung up again. I enjoyed the food the times I went but noticed the lady isn't too friendly (which wasn't always the end of the world). Definitely too many good restaurants to be subjected to the lack of customer service skills. Though I'd like to go back because of convenience, I can't. read more
