Lao Xi'er Noodle House

Excellent food and service, one of San Gabriel's culinary jewels

This has been on my list go try for a while, finally decided to try. I'll get the negatives out of the way. Parking is limited due to the amount of places in the one shopping center. Menu is limited as well. But prices are great for the amount of food. I got the could sesame noodles which was delicious! My boyfriend got the cars ears noodle dish, which was also so well seasoned and flavorful. The appetizer comes with 3 options so we got the spicy cucumber, braised beef and shredded potatoes, never had any of these seasoned the way they were and it was a delight to eat. We'll be returning for sure!

The tastes are very authentic. I like their dumplings a lot, very fresh. Would recommend them to who are craving for Chinese noodles

Dropped my car off to get worked on a couple blocks away, so I walked over to this small shopping center to grab some lunch. It's small location and small menu made me think: they must do these things REALLY well. I ordered the Wife's Special Noodle with Fried Pork and a side of pork leek dumplings. First impression: Noodle's look AMAZING! The different toppings provide so much flavor that all work well together. These might be the softest and thickest homemade? noodles I've ever had. The dumpling are full of flavor and when combined with their chili oil, they are a must get! Overall, amazing dining experience with delicious food. Would HIGHLY recommend! : RRR

I can't believe I waited so long to try this. The wife's special noodle dish is my favorite! Also, the waiter/front desk guy is very thoughtful, very accommodating. I will definitely come back to try other dishes.
