Shan Noodle
Jonnie N.

Yoma Myanmar is a true gem. This cozy mom-and-pop spot has such a warm, homey feel, and the owners are incredibly sweet and welcoming--you can really feel the love they put into the place and the food. The Beef Curry is deeply savory and aromatic, with tender beef that's perfectly seasoned and comforting in all the right ways. The Shan Dry Noodle absolutely shines--think Dan Dan noodle vibes, but with its own distinct personality. It's nutty from the peanut and sesame, wonderfully flavorful yet clean, and the sauerkraut adds a bright tang that cuts through the richness of the stewed pork belly beautifully. Authentic, soulful, and made with heart. This is the kind of spot you're excited to come back to again and again. Highly recommend.

7 5. Stir Fried Chayote and egg and curry
Jean L.

Yoma Myanmar is better than I remembered from my previous visit of almost a decade ago. My visit took place over the weekend and wowsers, I'm already looking forward to coming back next time I'm in the area. Our group of 3 ordered a tea leaf salad, chicken curry, chayote & eggs (veggie dish), and special shan noodles offered on weekends. Everything tasted as if someone's family member was cooking in the kitchen. All the dishes were flavorful and not greasy. We ate everything and left super stuffed. I was even full the next morning. Prices are reasonable, especially during these challenging economic times. Decor is still the same, inside and outside. Still a husband and wife duo. The sweet lady still chats it up with each table by asking how things went and if there are any questions. Dreaming about what entrees to try next... #16/2025

Lunch special
Sarah P.

Went on a weekend for lunch. It's a pretty small restaurant and it got really packed after we came in. Ordered the lunch special. It's $14.99 with 2 mains and salad or soup. Apparently on weekends it's an extra $2 tacked on. The server was very sweet but I do have to say was very disorganized. We did get our correct order though. I ordered chicken curry, beef curry and tea leaf salad. My favorite dishes that I got to try was the papaya salad and tea leaf salad. The flavors were delicious and veggies seemed fresh. The beef in the curry was a bit dry and overcooked, so I'd say I preferred the chicken over the beef. Overall, food was pretty good and they served complementary coconut jelly at the end too!

So happy to have found & tried this gem for the first time! It was the first time trying Burmese cuisine and I was so impressed. Apparently they've been around for decades & I can see why. This cozy mom & pop restaurant has a handful of tables & you're immediately treated like family. The owners are so sweet & friendly! We had a lot of questions about the menu & they were so happy to patiently explain everything! Parking: there's street parking available but there's also a small parking lot behind the restaurant Restroom: there's a single stall restroom available for customers Food: everything was so flavorful! Portions were generous & the prices were great! My favorite dish was the tea leaf salad. It was so fresh & had all the needed textures for someone like me who has texture sensitivity. Each bite was pleasantly crunchy & I can't wait to go back for some soon! Another notable mention (not pictured) is their Burmese tea! It's prepared hot & it's their version of milk tea. Highly recommend! Support your local businesses!

shan noodles, tea leaf salad
Crystal G.

Came here with my vegetarian mom based on other reviews mentioning good VG options. Food and service were AMAZING! The lady (owner?) was very friendly and attentive. She gave VG recommendations for my mom and even reassured us that they would omit the fish sauce. The restaurant is super cute and feels like I'm inside their home. Will definitely be coming back and introducing my friends to this place! Tea leaf salad (vegetarian): 4/5 Shan noodles (chicken): 5/5 Coconut jelly dessert: 5/5

extremely underrated spot. we were the only people there on a friday night. i would go many more times

42. Fish Paste with Tomato
Alvin L.

Be careful missing the sign, pirched behind a big ol' tree on Garvey! No frills and Great flavors for those seeking to explore Burmese food, and are looking outside the usual Chinese/Vietnamese places nearby. Ordered Mohinga, fish paste and tomato curry, and a side of tea lead salad. Service was awesome, as the owner took the time out of a slower Tuesday evening to educate us on the menu and gave us recommendations. She gave us mohinga (fish noodle soup) deconstructed so that we can share. The flavors of their tea leaf salad was on point and balances between sweet, savory, and sour with nice crunch. The fish paste and tomato curry was flavorful, and not for the faint of heart. If you like Vietnamese mam rouc or Filipino bagoong, then you'll be interested in this. Would recommend ample amount of rice as it's needed with the saltier curry. Ended the meal with a cooling jello dessert!

I've seen this restaurant and have passed by for many years. I finally decided to stop in. Definitely mom and pop, and that's the best part. I'd never had Burmese food before, so I was plenty excited. It's similar to Cambodian, Thai, Malaysian. Strong spices and flavors. If you like Southeast Asian and South Asian foods, you'll definitely enjoy it. I got the rice as the owner recommended. Tasty and such a huge portion, I took half of it home to enjoy the next day. She was so busy and doing the work of several people. This family deserves support from the community.

Fried Beef

Couldn't be happier with my experience here. Joan and her restaurant make you feel like you're in their home. My best friend growing up was Burmese - Yoma made me feel like a kid again having a home cooked Burmese meal. Every dollar feels well spent here. Fried Beef reminded me of Chicarrones. Dangerously flavorful- like fresh fried beef crisps. The Thick Noodles were delicious - if you are a fan of pad Thai , definitely recommend. Best to me was fried shrimp curry. I love spicy- this had an incredible umami + spicy flavor. The shrimp have the shells on it , and the way it's cooked - you eat the shells and it makes for a great "crunch". Wildly savory, unique dish that I will have to come back for. So happy to support this business. There aren't a ton of tables so it feels cozy. The service is good! Food came out fast and Joan will give great recommendations if you ask. I will absolutely be back here whenever I'm in the Baldwin park area - even if it's just grabbing a fried shrimp curry for the road :)

Small mom and pop shop that literally looks like someone's living room/kitchen. There is no parking lot available so only street parking. We ordered Shan noodle recommended by the nice lady owner. I asked her to not add peanuts in there as the dish comes w peanuts but unfortunately they forgot. She was apologetic and so nice about it. Then we also go the beef curry and curry fish both had the same sauce which had a little bit of spice but not too overwhelming. Perfect! They were so nice and talked to almost every customer. The people next to us travelled 30 mins just to eat here! She even gave us complimentary coconut jelly dessert to end our meal.

Tea leaf salad
Bin X.

We really enjoyed the chicken and potato curry, shan noodles, and goat curry. The dishes were all flavorful and huge portions. We had plenty of left overs for another meal at home. The owners are very kind and generous. Highly recommended it!

Fried yellow tofu
Khaing Z W.

The beef curry is really good. Highly recommend it with naan . Watercress ongchoy chinyayhin is very refreshing but a bit spicy. Fried tofu makes a good appetizer and soft tofu mix is really good

coconut jelly
Grace M.

4.5! first time trying burhmese/myanmar food! really liked it. a lot of the items was a good blend and similar to indian food which i loved. i tried traditional burmese dishes like shan noodles and shan hkat - both of which were very good! my favorite was their yoma danpauk - their chicken biryani. im in LOVE with this rice, one of the tastiest rice ive tried ever. chicken was cooked and spiced so good too. their samosas were simpler than the ones im used too but theyre also very good. their burmese tea reminded me of thai tea and their thai tea was pretty strong and had tea grounds still in but i actually really liked the taste of it. the owners were so nice they even gave us a complimentary dessert of coconut jelly. loved this place! it did take long for some of our food to come out though. i think there might be only one person cooking since the orders came out one by one. very nice local spot!

31. Beef curry and 5. Fried Samusa.  Delicious.

Luyixian is a gem located in the ABC plaza near the intersection of Valley Boulevard and Garfield Avenue. Luyixian serves a variety of soy-based dishes, regional Chinese comfort cuisine, and Zhejiang specialties. Luyixian is mostly known for their braised pork rice and beef noodle soup. The atmosphere there was nice and the staff there were very friendly. Parking can be found either inside the plaza building or underground. I ordered the braised beef rice. The braised beef rice was mouthwatering! It is like a home cooked meal. The braised beef was very tender and juicy. The beef is served with sauteed cabbage, pickled vegetables, hard-boiled egg, and a scoop of rice. The braised beef rice will taste even better when everything on the plate is mixed together. My dish took about 10 minutes to be served, which is quite quick. So far, my first time dining at Luyixian was a great experience! I would definitely recommend this gem to anyone who loves braised pork rice or other Chinese dishes!

I went with the tomato and sliced beef for $14.99. This came with bean sprouts, which I wasn't aware of, and there was a lot of bean sprouts inside - almost as much as there was rice noodle. Not a fan of bean sprouts but will eat if I need to, but in this case - it totally overwhelmed the dish. There also wasn't enough rice noodle for me. Everything else was good, but that kinda blew it for me. Also got the spicy soup with beef and tomatoes. This is more of a gentle burn in spice they slowly works its way up. It's good if you like spice. Restaurant wasn't too busy when we arrived but got a good amount of customers by the time we were leaving. Workers are friendly. Not sure if I'd be back though. Lots of street parking or a small lot to the side.

The portion rice is very generous, I can never finish and would end up taking leftovers. Parking: they have a lot next to the restaurant, I never had an issue with finding a spot. The only downside is they don't have their AC on during the summer. I remember one time I was sweating while eating and it was very uncomfortable.

Ordered three items here and all were fantastic. Best noodle in a bowl of beef noodle soup…read moreever--hand pulled noodles just done right and extra noodles are free! Beef roll looked more like a giant taco but was also excellent. In the most convoluted sequence of restaurant occupancy in the annals of Chinese restaurants in the United States, Noodle King has supplanted Rice Hero/Hero's Kitchen/In Joy Lunch in Alhambra in the space formerly occupied by a different restaurant named Noodle King in the 1980s and 1990s. There's a lot to explain here. I used the compound name for the previous occupant because the name on the front entrance was Rice Hero, the back entrance said Hero's Kitchen and the digital menus said In Joy Lunch. I say the old restaurant was supplanted, not replaced, because the old restaurant sort of still hangs around, with a tiny sheet of paper with all 3 old names taped to the front door, and many old dishes still on the menu. Why the three names I don't know. In Joy Lunch had been a popup that operated during lunch hour serving Dongbei food in a space in YYDS Fried Strings in Rosemead. In Joy Lunch then struck out on their own last year with this space in Alhambra, adding the new names. The old Noodle King had been a Taiwanese noodle fixture before moving out in 2003. Since the new Noodle King also serves some of the Rice Hero/Hero's Kitchen/In Joy Lunch items, the same name seems to be just a coincidence. But despite holdover menu items the staff clearly say they're a new restaurant, with the Noodle King himself greeting you at the front entrance and the signage in both front and back now say Noodle King.

From the outside, you can't tell the inside has really good space with booths plus tables and chairs, but it does. They weren't super busy at the time... about 5 tables occupied. I was greeted right away by the one server who was working the entire floor. Interior was clean and well lit. Atmosphere was comfortable. Menu has a variety of options... boiled dumplings, pan-fried dumplings, steamed mini buns, stir-fried noodles, regular noodles, rolls & pancakes, side dishes, rice, soup, and beverages. They also have frozen food to-go (just two items... dumplings and dezhou chicken). I got one Steamed Mini Buns (aka Xiao Long Bao), one Stir-Fried Noodles with pork, one Lamb Noodles Soup (with hand torn noodles), and one Jasmine Green Tea with honey. Yes, this seems like a lot of food for one person. I'm not a stranger to bringing food home for another meal. *Steamed Mini Buns - juicy with flavorful pork filling, adequate skin thickness, good size buns *Stir-Fried Noodles with pork - best dish out of the 3, good balance between pork, veggies, and noodles, mild spice level was perfect, portions were reasonable for the price *Lamb Noodles Soup - great amount of lamb and noodles, lamb was tender, noodles were a tad mushy on the edge... they need to be firmer, soup was savory *Jasmine Green Tea with honey - good size cup, tea was a bit bitter, probably needs more honey Food came out steaming hot and timely. Staff and service were wonderful. Yan, the server, was patient and helpful. He did an amazing job working the entire floor by himself. Thank you Yan! Highly recommend this place for their pan-dried and soup noodles. I would come back for more pan-fried noodles and try their pan-fried dumplings. Btw, cash, Zelle, or Venmo payment ONLY for bill total under $50. Bring cash if you don't plan to eat lots.

I have had ones in previous visits that the beef was chewy, not tender. You have a choice of regular noodles or hand torn noodles. Hand torn noodles are more filling since the noodles are much thicker than the regular noodles. They are both good. It is a matter of preference. The minced pork with noodles (aka Jia Jiang mien) is also good. For this visit, I did not order dumplings. But their dumplings are usually good. The service is adequate but don't expect good service.
