4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles | Eater LA
"This bustling Monterey Park Teochew–Vietnamese spot specializes in comforting bowls of noodle soup—great for breakfast—with a lengthy menu of toppings (beef meatballs, shrimp, offals) and fast, efficient service that suits solo diners who want to get in and out quickly." - Eater Staff
Kim Kee is one of among many Chiu Chow soup noodle establishments in the area. It’s characterized by an extensive menu, fast service, reasonable prices and endless customizations.
We sampled all the popular combinations of soup noodles and everything’s solid and good. It’s not the best I’ve ever had and pales against my fave noodle spots in San Francisco like Hai Ky Mi Gia or Thai Nghiep Ky Mi Gia.
The broths come out just a little more lukewarm and a little less flavorful. Value is there though parking is very challenging. The kidney side dish is excellent though.
Credit cards accepted for a 4% fee so cash preferred. Dining is indoor only and walk in only.

This place has a ridiculous amount of noodles—enough for two people, for real. The Fukien and Mei Wong are my go-to, with that fried shrimp cracker on top for some extra crunch. So much wonton and meat, too

Their chow fun with gravy was super good. I preferred that over my soup dish, but my partner loved the soup and noodles! Wait was like 20 min on a weekend and the inside is small and packed. Food comes out quick; just wave the servers down and write your name on the board when you line up.

Honestly I hate to write reviews for places I truly love and hold dear to my heart. Because I dont want it to be overpopulated with people and get too over hyped!! But I also want them to stay around for a while so I guess I am writing a review!
This hole in a wall place sells the most delicious noodles. Their #1 special with variety of meat is delicious and I highly recommend trying it. You can choose noodles to your liking - i personally love their thin egg noodles, but the world is your oyster!
I do recommend bringing some cash, they have limited parking in the back but honestly street parking isn't bad around the area. I always come here for comfort food, and it always hits the spot!!!!!
my all time favorite noodle place I been neglecting to leave review but now am because i felt its time the world need to know what an amazing place this is!
they have booths and tables, + hot tea is always a bonus
yes bathrooms too

Update: Rainy chilly day in LA. All good. I'm so glad I have Kim Kee Noodles.
Update: The best period!
Update: I eat Kim Kee once a week and I am not ashamed to admit it!!!!!
Update: Had the noodles dry for the first time..... i am keeping it with soup inside. It was greta but i like the soup inside better!
This is one of the greatest noodle spots around and I've tried many many!!!!! Love the fact that you have the option of pho or egg noodles, skinny or thick and soup inside or out. It all makes a nice taste difference!

If you like noodles this is one of the places you need to go to. You get to choose from 6 different noodles (round egg noodles, pho noodles, rice vermicelli, thin egg noodles, thick egg noodles, & rice noodles), see pictures. We had an awesome late lunch here.
