Gui Lin Noodle - San Gabriel

Tried the conch rice noodle and ultimate noodle. Also got a plate of tofu strips, chicken gizzard and pork skin. The side dish was good but a bit too spicy for me. The majority of their side dishes are spicy. The ultimate noodle was good. Had good flavor. Wasn't soupy, it's more like a dry noodle. I liked it but it didn't blow me away. The conch rice noodle had a very tasty umami broth. The noodles has a nice chewy texture and its a little wider than say a spaghetti noodle. The light noodle paired well with the heavier broth. I had heard this noodle is usually smelly because of the conch. I didn't find this noodle stinky. Maybe it's just this restaurant and it's my first time trying it so I don't have anything else to compare it to. I didn't finish the dish and took the rest home. The noodles held up well on a reheat in the microwave. Overall good tasting noodles at a reasonable price. Quick service.

Decided to try this place out. It always looks busy (when I drive pass) I did read the bad reviews before hand and most of them are pretty negative. But decided to still give it a shot. Ordered A1 because I wasn't too sure about everything else that was on the menu, which is stuff that I've never tried or even introduced too. I'm new to This Area. Anyways the Soup was different but not in a bad way very citrusy, well served and the waitress wasn't rude she was pretty straight forward. I saw that a lot of people complained about her attitude. She was nice, the place gets busy and she's the only waitress, cashier etc, she's multitasking people. This place got pretty busy. The noodles were good but I've had better. The price was decent. Not fully convinced to come back but not bad idk. It's a 50/50.Before I forget I got the Melon water, Just get a Soda!

两字儿: 难吃; 仨字儿: 不好吃; 四个字儿: 很不好吃. The noodle and other dishes taste really bad, 100% not coming back to this place.

HORRIBLE SERVICE! Never coming back! On June 4,2021 around 2-3pm, the skinny Chinese waitress had a horrible attitude. She first YELLED at me when she couldn 't hear my question. Next, she took care of couple other people first even I ordered ahead of them. There was a huge fly in my plate and I was trying to get rid of it. She saw how hard I was trying when she passed me a couple of times, but she ignored me. Then, when I specifically asked if she can help me with having the rest meal to go, she didn 't help me at all instead she just threw me some boxes. Lastly, she said thank you to every customers when they leave except me. I waited til she saw me to leave so I can see if she will say the same thing to me. She saw me leaving and she didn 't say a word as I was literally passing by her. Not only so, she even frowned at my table as I left. I felt discriminated for no reason by a waitress. I had no idea and couldn 't understand why she was doing this. Is that because I am a single girl , then that 's bullying LMAO. 2021年6月4号下午两点到三点值班的一个瘦瘦的头发扎起来的中国女服务员！服务态度超级差，区别对待客人！ 1. 大吼大叫：我进门的准备点餐的时候她没听清我说什么立马皱眉大声冲着我叫了一声 啊？！！！ 恶劣粗暴的态度把我惊呆了 2. 先顾别人：我先点的凉菜，其他客人在我之后叫她，她却先去服务别的客人，给他们买单，上菜，都做完了之后看到我哀怨的眼神，才给我上凉菜。后来看到别的客人点凉菜，她都马上给他们上。区别对待我让我觉得很不公。我最讨厌这种区别对待的服务员了！难道欺负我就一个女孩子？ 3. 无视困难：吃饭的时候苍蝇一直飞到我桌上，我好几次用手不停地赶饭也吃不了了。她三四次看到经过我身边，看到我拼命赶，直接无视！也不帮我赶一下。 4. 我问她 可以帮我打包吗 ，我说了 帮我 两个字，她听完却立马只给我丢个盒子让我自己装，可是别的客人带走她都帮他们装！！！！ 5. 区别歧视：每一个客人走的时候，她都有说，谢谢。因为之前看到她区别对待就觉得她可能不会对我说。吃完我还故意逗留了一会确保她亲眼看到我离开，没想到她看到我站起来离开了！！走的时候她从我旁边擦肩而过！！什么都没有说！！！还皱着眉头看着我的桌子！我也不知道为什么，我做错了什么，她要这样无缘无故区别对待我和别的客人？ 我从来没有吃饭这么难受过。我吃饭是来享受的，不是来受歧视受气的。何况这味道本来也不好，味道不正宗就算了，我点的酸辣，酸的味道盖过了所有的味道，酸呛酸呛的，汤也像调料味口感，粉量少。 这位女服务员，我希望她能被炒掉，如果她是老板，祝你店里早点倒闭。我会让我所有朋友不会去这家，也会在各个华人平台上发帖子让大家别去。

I was coming here for almost everyday for lunch for about a year back in like 2016-2017. At first, they had a nice lady as a server because she was also older. She remembers my order cause I order the same thing every time I came here. The noodles here are pretty decent. I like to order the sour and spicy beef noodle soup. I love spicy and sour combine and the spicier the better. I love spicy food so much. If your a spicy food fanatic like I 'm, the sour and spicy beef noodle soup is definitely a must try. I also love their appetizers duck eggs and pork intestines. I 'm fully blown Asian, so I love eating certain types of organs in animals, haha! Fast track to maybe 2018-2019... TERRIBLE!!!! I came back here one day to eat and they have this new young server... she was so RUDE RUDE RUDE! This grandma and her grandchild was eating there. The grandma asked the server for help, and she started yelling at her. The grandma than actually came up to me and asked me Do I have to give them tips? Knowing what that server did, giving the grandma the bad eyes look and not wanting to help her out.. I told the grandma... if you don 't think you want too... don 't tip her. The server had such bad attitude! I wanted to smack her in the face. Like omg... the poor grandma and her grandchild... they were just trying to have a nice meal for the day... and you gotta yell at them? Fast forward, I didn 't tip the server either. It seems like she was being mean to almost everyone. This place always seem to only have one person serving and one person cooking. I knocked down 1 star because of the change of services... bad service!! 1 star knocked down again for taking too long to take my order. Oh and taking way to long to bring me my water... it 's water people... doesn 't take a minute to fill up a cup. Another star knocked down because they need to basically hire better people. Also they need to do better in cleaning the place up too. They sometimes don 't wipe the table until you sit down. That is gross and not hygienic. I don 't want someone wiping the table when I 'm getting myself comfortable to eat.... Sorry, but I won 't be coming back. Other places can make Guilin noodles too, not just this place... Bye Felicia lol!!!
