The Best Places To Eat In The San Gabriel Valley

"Our Favorite Dishes: Scallion Pancakes, Beef Noodle Soup, Pan Fried Pork Buns Tasty Noodle House recently expanded into Los Angeles proper, but the original in San Gabriel is far, far better. The strip mall restaurant is tiny - there are seven tables - so unless you’re here at an off-hour, you’ll be putting your name on the list and waiting. The crowd is a very-SGV mix of grandpas slurping noodles (and not really talking), families, and younger people on their cell phones. Whether you’re here with a group or on your own, you need to have three things on your table: the buttery scallion pancakes, the enormous beef noodle soup, and the doughy/juicy pan-fried pork buns." - jess basser sanders, amy clark, brant cox, brett keating
