Chicken tom kah is very good here, I would say this is a great noodle soup alternative to pho or ramen on a cold day. The broth has the right balance of Thai flavors, lightly sweet, savory, sour, and a little spicy. The spicy spaghetti is good as usual, would recommend if you want a dry noodle. The interior dining service is good but location is old and campy, it would do for quick lunch or dinner. Feels like eating in Asia. 3.5 stars but 4 for nostalgia and price. This is a solid to-go spor read more

The service was very friendly and welcoming. From the perspective of "Noodle World" (which I often confused with "Noodle Planet") and I think I've been to other locations, the menu here is smaller in variety but does cover the "All Asian Noodles" of Chinese (Fun/Egg), Japanese (Ramen/Udon), Vietnamese (Pho) and maybe Thai... both soup noodle dishes and dry / fried noodles as base staples to choose from. I could have sworn the menu of "Noodle World" was more robust 'tho with many other dishes. So, I think this might just be a "smaller" (in space) location to the one in Alhambra, maybe. Parking was easy 'tho and it's on the cusp of the East Los Angeles area. Nothing too wrong about this place, other than the restroom/bathroom is a bit intimidatingly overrun by graffiti where it has a bad aesthetic, but isn't filthy nor dirty per se, just not the way a public restroom should look and they might consider getting rid of the graffiti (unless it's a clientele problem that continues to arise and can never be kept clean). read more

I used to come here all the time, it was always kept up and prices were reasonable, buy now prices seem to be much higher for the amount food you get. The seating area looks and smells run down. The company/workers/ owners have really let this place go. I mean really their restroom is disgustingly filthy and (please check the picture) what does that say about the entire place , I'm even. Afraid of what the kitchen might be like - even though they have an A rating for inspection - I think the inspector needs to come again. Well I hope this helps potential patrons, to be honest I'm a bit bummed about it. Won't be returning . Need to find a new Thai food place in Monterey Park, CA. read more

It's a nice surprise to see Noodle World still around. There used to be more locations. I ordered to go online and the food was ready within less than 15 minutes. The interior looked clean and well-maintained. Not sure how it was dining-wise but I think most people order to go anyway. read more

The staff is super friendly and always have a smile on their faces. The food is fantastic! Always on point. My favorite dishes are beef pad seew, spicy seafood spaghetti, chicken satay. They have homemade sauces that you have to try them all! If you want authentic Thai food please make your way here. You will not be disappointed. read more

I had ordered dinner here and it was kind of my fault for ordering at the wrong Noodle World as I thought I had ordered at the once in Alhambra. I actually never knew this place exited just to find out it has been here for a long time. The parking situation itself was pretty tight but i managed to find a spot as it's located in a very small strip mall on Atlantic Blvd. Restaurant itself was pretty small; probably 4-5 tables? I had ordered for pick-up anyways and the staff was friendly. Ordered their Seafood Spaghetti (non-spicy) and their Fried Chicken Wings. Though I wish I ordered their spicy seafood spaghetti instead as the non-spicy was ok. Had to order non-spicy for the kids. As for their fried chicken wings, the wings were dry very fried which wasn't too bad. Good thing is they had a nice sweet tangy sauce to dip the wings in. The chicken itself could've been more juicier on the inside but nevertheless, taste wise is pretty much on par with the location in Alhambra. read more

I ordered some pad se ew and some mixed fried rice for delivery and it was so good! The positions are really good to share. The flavor was great for both dishes. For my personal taste the rice had too much onion but they were pieces big enough to pick out. That wasn't my dish tho but I had a taste. If I ordered my own I would ask for no onion if possible. Other than that it was a great lunch! Oh yeah! The peanut sauce is a must! It's so good. read more

Noodle World - Noodles Near Me - Monterey Park, California

When we have a Pho craving and we don't want to travel far this is our go to. Never does us wrong and if you ask for it spicy it's a lot hotter with the slow building chili oil now so be warned! I found out first hand but I enjoyed it Pick-up Service is always quick here! Broth is decent and HOT! They give you decent amount of chicken and a little baggie filled with bean sprouts, thai basil, & lime wedges. Recommended for a quick fix read more

Food is great and service is always efficient and accurate. Noodle World is one of our go-to spots near home.

Ordered DoorDash from this location and it gave me food poisoning. The worst I've never had ! I had to call of work smh. Avoid this location. read more

Their customer service needs improvement. I ordered for to-go and asked for extra chilies because I like my food spicy, but the server said no because each order only comes with one packet of chilies. It's ridiculous because I wasn't asking for a bunch--just one extra. Everyone has their own taste buds; some like less, and some like more. It would be more polite to offer an extra charge rather than telling customers no. I don't mind paying extra, because I would rather enjoy my meal than be rudely told no because of a restaurant rule that makes no sense. read more

Noodle World has been a staple in my family for so long, and it honestly never disappoints! If you're looking for a good, casual dinner this is the place. I always get the seafood pad thai, and it's always good. Noodle World serves big portions that I'm never able to finish, which makes it great for splitting dishes with family! I also highly recommend the Seafood Pad See Ew with crispy noodles (my dad's go-to order). The interior is casual, with small tables and a big mural on the wall. The servers are always really nice and cheerful, and the food gets served fast. I really like that this is one of the few places left that still serves almond milk tea too!! It's definitely nothing fancy, but I've personally never been disappointed by the food or service here :) read more

We were in Montebello last weekend and of course we have to stop at a noodle world. It's our favorite! We have been to the one in Alhambra and San Marino, so we decided to try this place. We had our pup with us so we had to do take out. I placed my order over the phone, repeated it three times. When we get to the hotel and open our food, we see that our order was wrong. This was so disappointing since we've been driving for six hours. We were tired and decided not to call them, it's an inconvenience to us specially being so tired. I wish the wrong dish was somthing we liked but it wasn't. That didn't matter because our other dish that was correct and is our all time favorite was bad. It didn't have the veggies it usually does, it looked like it had been reheated from the day before. It was just bad. So disappointed in this location. We will stick to our usual locations and just drive a little further. read more

Wow. Found this Gem on Yelp! It was so good i took a same order home for the wife. I had the soup with different meats, asked for spicy and they delivered. The server was really nice. I will be back cool place. read more

Been coming here for a long time. Always as expected, decently priced and hits the spot.

this little restaurant is near the atlantic shopping center next to shakeys. looks a lot bigger than it is inside + lots of variety, perfect for when you and your party can't decide which asian noodle you want + friendly service + lots of parking + affordable (~$15 each dish) - very limited seating (we came during lunch and people turned back because there was nowhere to sit) - the dishes are just ok. better off going to a specialty place if you know what cuisine you are craving - slow service overall, this place is good for the variety- they offer chinese, vietnamese and thai noodle dishes all for reasonable price. but the taste is just ok, not bad but not amazing. read more

First time at this noodle world location. We usually go to their Alhambra one, which is bigger and more crowded than this one. This Monterey Park location is pretty small, but it wasn't busy when we got there. We got seated right away and our food came out very quick. We ordered the chicken pad see ew and beef steak with rice. The beef steak tasted better and had more flavor than the chicken pad see ew, but both was missing the wok hei for that umami flavor. Still good food and portion was decent. It came in the to-go containers so all you need is a lid and your leftover is ready. They are located next to Shakey's and Just Tires off Atlantic Blvd. Across the street from Cook's Tortas and Raising Cane's. Not too many parking spaces, but it's not usually too busy in this area. read more

Noodle World - 93. Beef Steak & 73. Pad See You (Chicken) - Noodles Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Noodle World is a go-to for a quick, hot, and tasty meal. It's usually my second choice when the pho place I usually go to isn't open (on the weekends). Their other foods are tasty as well. I will say that this Noodle World location has better service than Alhambra, especially since it's smaller. It's a smaller spot so when they're busy, it might feel a bit cramped there. But it gets the job done. This location is right next to Shakey's and tire center, so parking can be difficult. read more

As a frequent diner of Asian cuisine I love variety in where I go, which is why I can't help but come back to this place over and over again. The food at Noodle World is always delicious, the delivery is always quick and hot. From their soups and rice, to the really tender ways they prepare their meats, this place never disappoints! Their smoothies and other drinks are also a must have! They service is fast and approachable. The mural on the wall makes for great atmosphere too! read more

I actually think this place is pretty good! Pad Thai was very flavorful. I enjoyed it a lot. The garlic noodles is exactly what it is. Very garlicky! Also, tasty. The wonton noodle soup is your typical soup taste. You can tell the wontons are homemade. All pretty big portions for the cost. Staff was nice. Service was pretty fast. To me, this place is more of a to go service. There are limited seating in the restaurant. There's a lot on the menu to choose from. From soupy to stir fry. So everyone can pick something from the menu. What I would not order again is the fried tofu. It's very dry and hard. Would not recommend Overall, I think this place is decent and recommend! read more

The food is great and always made exactly like the other locations. The place is a bit small so not much room for dinning but enough for about 4 people in group. My favorite soup is Tom Yum Ramen and chicken Tom Kah . Love the pad see you, pad Thai and shrimp fried rice. read more

We are regulars at this spot, been eating here for years, everything on the menu is good, flavorful delicious food.

Such a nostalgic spot to eat in the Alhambra and Monterey Park restaurants. Spicy spaghetti with beef always good one. Savory and sweet with goodness in your mouth. There is the option to get with seafood or chicken Pad Thai is nice when I need my quick Thai fixing Pad see ew too yummm Thai Boat noodle soup is very flavorful... Mint leaf chicken is good spicy with a perfect fried egg Beef steak for a meaty brown flavor with rice! The lemon with salt and pepper is nice too Beef salad and papaya salad is a nice fresh start or full on meal when I want to eat light read more

I bought the shrimp fried rice and the shrimp was not fresh at all. It was spoiled and soggy and not even cooked properly. When i called and complained, all she said was I'll let the kitchen know. Not even apologize or switch to another protein, nothing. Inconsiderate people. Waste my time and money. Ive been a customer for 10 years, this is why the place is dead. The one in alhambra is way better. Dont go here. read more

Do not waste your time or money at this establishment. The service here is so bad, and the majority of the workers are rude. I had came here once before and found flies flying all around the restaurant and landing all over my food and drinks. A few weeks later, I decided to order for pick up because I work close by. I placed an $87 order over the phone. When we picked up our food, we took it back to work. We didn't realize they gave us an incorrect dish at the time of pick up. I called back to see if I could pick up the correct dish or at least get a refund for the incorrect dish. The Asian woman who answered began accusing of me lying to her and saying she did pack all the dishes. She wasn't believing me, and said I should not be calling the restaurant and tell them lies ... what the ?!?! The woman then hung up on me and never answered again. Rightfully so, I disputed the transaction with my bank. Not only did I place a massive $87 order but when THEY made a mistake on the order, then they accused me of lying to them. I vowed to NEVER come back to this place again. No matter how hungry I was at work, I never ordered from here again. read more

Noodle World offers a variety of Asian-themed dishes (noodles). We were lucky to get in as there were a few vacant tables. I ordered the Thai Chicken Satay Salad and the Thai Boat Noodles. The salad was well prepared and very tasty. The Thai Boat Noodles are a traditional beef based presentation and it too was tasty with plenty of fresh broth. Of course I washed my meal down with a great Thai Tea (no Boba) and all in all, very affordable. There is plenty of free parking and of course there is dine-in as well as take out. read more

Go to the Alhambra location! Overly salty and overcooked food here :( Decided to order from Noodle World to get our staples because we love their affordable prices and huge portions, but this location is nowhere near as good as their Alhambra spot. We decided to give this location a chance but I'm not coming back. Pad thai: 1/5 stars I ordered one with chicken and shrimp (original) for my brother and one with just chicken for me, but there were literally 3 small pieces of chicken in mine! So disappointing. I was craving pad Thai for so long and Noodle World has never done me dirty before... until now. I've never had this problem at their other location. The pad thai not only had little meat, it also seemed to lack flavor. It was salty for the sake of being salty but had no depth. Pad see ew with beef: 2/5 stars I preferred this dish over the pad Thai, but this was EXTREMELY SALTY. I'm giving it a higher score only because there seemed to be more flavor, but the noodles here were over cooked (mushy). Sighhh at least there was a decent amount of beef. Beef steak: 3/5 stars Okay, this dish was also salty, but I loved the sauce so much. However, it has the problems of the other dish (making me excessively thirsty). The beef steak was a little more cooked than I would prefer, but it was still tender and came with a pillowy serving of rice. If you really want to order from here, I would recommend their beef steak but be prepared to drink gallons of water to balance out their use of salt. Okay now I'm going to say I know using MSG is not bad, but either this place overloads on their msg or salt because I ate 1/3 of my pad thai and I was dying all night from excessive thirst! I drank 3 full water bottles and I was still thirsty. I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt so I ate some more food when I woke up and sure enough, I felt extremely thirsty (dry mouth) again. I feel disappointed because Noodle World is one of my favorite go-to spots but this experience was off putting. I'm not going to order from here again. Would not recommend this location! Solid two stars. read more

I love ordering Noodle World to go. It's easy and convenient. The food is decent. The flavoring of the food is always good. One recommendation would be the Pad Thai. It's not the best and could use more flavoring it's always fairly dry. The Pad See Ew is really good, I'd suggest more chinese broccoli, but overall, good. The spicy wings are good, and I love the veggie eggrolls. The potstickers are okay, not the best. The yellow curry is always a good choice and delicious. I'm definitely going to keep coming here because it's always a good alternative to other food choices for a different taste. read more

What a hot weekend, yet everyone is out and about! Today for lunch, we decided to get some Chinese foods in Monterey Park area. Originally we were heading to get Chongqing noodles, but for the sake of familiarity we pulled into Noodle World. It was my second time at this place, the first time was probably over a decade ago. The menu is simple with photos to show patrons what the foods look like. So the menu has many different kind of noodles available from pan fried to noodle soups, from Thai inspired noodles, to Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese. I would recommend this restaurant for its quick and friendly service. And to top it the food portions and flavor are great.. read more
