What a find, I got this recommendation from Mikey Chen (strictly dumpling) not much to look at, just a larger hole in the wall but the service is so different from other Chinese places, their actually very nice. And helpful here lol. The dishes come out fast and super hot and fresh! We ordered: Biang biang noodles with the 3topping $13.99- so worth it. These are hand stretched hand made noodles so bouncy and perfect topped with Lu ro (minced braised pork belly) tomato egg cubed potato stew, I know weird but it's yummy and all topped off with hot spicy oil. So delicious Chinese Pork burger $7.99 so juicy and scrumptious very well stuffed and the bun is crispy would've rather had it on a soft bun bao, but I get the contrast wanting. Chinese spicy cumin beef/lamb hamburger $7.99 not spicy and is good but if you have to choose between the pork and this. Pork wins! Hot pepper chicken $15.99 wow this was piping hot crunchy crispy and moist all at once delicious a must! So yummy over rice but on the salty side so a little goes a long way. Cumin pork ribs $15.99 numbing spice pretty good watch out for tiny shards of bone, it is haphazardly chopped so tiny bones are present. A little on the dry side. Sweet and sour pork ribs $15.99 not what I was expecting doesn't look like the picture I thought it had a coating and deep fried first but no. The sauce is on the soy sauce side not the sweet and sour crispy red sauce I was expecting. Yes, this is on rotation on my list I will be back. I often crave this food. Have been back a few times already!

Needed broth to recover from night of drinking, wife recommended this place. Everyone in there seemed to be Chinese and I found that as a good sign for authentic food. Service was good, they were very quiet but friendly. With ambiance of mom and pop shop, we got comfortable right away. I got lamb soup, 4/5, (which did cure me from hangover), wife got the cold noodles, 4/5, and we shared the pork burger, 5/5. Reasonably priced and flavorful dishes, 10/10 would recommend.

Noodle Art had been on my Yelp "To Try" list for ages, and one weekend, I finally headed to Monterey Park to satisfy my craving for Xi'an-style noodles. I ordered the cold noodles with chili oil (likely liang pi) and the Chinese spicy lamb burger. Both were fantastic, especially the refreshing cold noodles on a warm day. However, ordering might be tricky if you don't speak Chinese, as most staff have limited English. The restaurant is in a run-down strip mall known as "Fatty Ding's Plaza," where you might encounter mainland Chinese migrants or some questionable individuals driving around the parking lot trying to sell you stuff. Just ignore them and focus on the delicious food.

LOVED EVERYTHING! We stopped here for dinner, on recommendation from a friend. Absolutely blown away by the flavors, portion sizes, and quality of service. We ordered 3 different noodle dishes and absolutely devoured all of it. The server was so nice to walk us through the menu since it was our first time and gave us extra care in making sure we were happy with our meal. This place definitely gets busy though but I can completely see why. Their flavors are just unmatched and the noodle texture is amazing. The parking situation is a lot since its located within a shopping center but can be tricky especially when it's busy. I would definitely come here again!!

Noodle Art has reliably good noodles, though beware that popular dishes may be sold out by dinner time! We especially like the Liang Pi cold noodles (you can choose your level of spiciness). The JaJiangMian is good too. As it the Chinese hamburger (have only tried pork; want to try spicy lamb next time). All their noodles also come in ginormous bowls.

This is a hole in the wall place in a strip mall. It is absolutely worth a trip. The menu is a little hard to decipher if you don't speak Chinese (google translate on your phone helps) but the food is absolutely fantastic. We had the round noodles in a stir fry with cumin and mutton. OMG. So good. All the noodles are handmade. Hubby had a dish with flat noodles (all the noodles are wheat since the cuisine is from northern China) where they pour hot chili oil over it after placing the components in the dish. Spectacular. So flavorful and tasty. There's little ambiance but the food is so great.

I saw Noodle Art had quite a few positive reviews on Yelp, and it was nearby, so I decided to go try it. The first time I went, it was closed for renovations, so I came back after it reopened. Noodle Art is a very small hole-in-the-wall restaurant, tucked away in a strip mall on Garvey and Garfield. It's easy to miss. The restaurant is small, air conditioning was not on, but there were fans. Service was ok, if you ask for something you will get it. I ended up ordering a rou jia mou or Chinese hamburger with beef. My wife got a big plate of spicy pork intestine noodles. The noodles were too spicy for me personally. I liked the rou jia mou, the bun was crispy, and the beef tasted like pastrami. Solid restaurant overall.

Quality/Quantity - Cold Noodle with Sesame Sauce - My favorite of the dishes. But I think I would have preferred the spicier version even more. I think this is an appetizer...? Chinese Pork Hamburger - My daughter's favorite but my least favorite. I make a pretty good pulled pork sandwich. They were nice enough to cut it into smaller pieces for us. Signature Dry Noodle - This was my favorite entree. Good and interesting flavors. Beautiful presentation. Again, I would probably have preferred a spicy version. Braised Eggplant with Beans - The eggplant was cooked perfectly. The beans were over cooked; I prefer my beans to have a slight crunch. But the flavors were good, a little too much oil for my taste, but good. Self service water - Really small cups; we had to go back a few times. Also available: ​​Side dish bar - Cool, but we knew we could not order any more food. Soup noodles, fried rice, etc. Known for: Local specialities, signature dishes, house specials and chef's specials; yes they have many choices, LOL. Atmosphere - Need a code to use the bathroom. Your bathroom needs attention. No paper towels or soap. Plus the sink was clogged. Lastly, you need to take your table mats OUT of the bathroom! See picture. Free two hour parking, but the mall was crazy busy. Glad we parked in the street. Good size parking lot, but not enough for all the businesses here. Open 7 days a week from 9:30am to 9pm. Service - Very accommodating. Thank you! My daughter prefers NOT to eat spicy foods, so they were willing to adjust their menu for us. Price - $47 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2021.

Hole in the wall type experience, great customer service and vibes; spacious and clean. Ordered the house noodles -- so many ingredients from hand-pulled noodles, chili oil (spicy af so mild next time for me lol), potatoes, pork bits, tomatoes and eggs, green onion, and more. Also got the cold dish noodles -- very chewy and I love how it cools down the spice lol love the pickled cucumbers and bouncy texture of the noodles. Lastly, the pork pulled sandwich -- good on its own but even better when dipped in the noodle dish sauces LOL xian food is so spicy and mala numbing but sooo good
