I've eaten Char Kuey Teow in many places and countries. This Char was up with the best. Spicy was perfect for us. Seasoned perfectly and,of course, piping hot.Highly Recommended.I'll be back for Laksa another time, thank you.
In a land and area where there are abundant options for food from all countries, QQ Kopitiam is a hidden treasure to explore Southeast Asian food from Singapore and Malaysia. It is a fast casual place that is across the street from Pasadena City College. I came here for a late lunch and my partner and I were the only customer. We ordered the curry laksa and Singaporean fried noodles. Our bellies were happy! Credit cards are accepted here.

Just got back from Singapore and after eating Singaporean food I checked to see if there was any singaporean cafes that were local to me and thankfully there was this one here in Pasadena. I ordered the Laksa with a side of iced coffee. The Laksa was delicious. Very authentic just like auntie stall in singapore. The noodles were prepared very well. Homemade. A small family owns this cafe so its nice. However the wife that runs the front of the shop seems very stern. Im giving this 5 stars for the Laksa and iced coffee specifically as a dine in meal. The good food makes up for all the other things people have complained about. Just order your food, sit down, shut up, put on a pair of headphones and listen to something music or a podcast and eat lol. Great food and a good find!

They do not provide complimentary water even if you ask for it. You have to buy their drinks.You ask for mild for the fried noodles, they give you a very spicy version of it, to make sure you buy drinks from them.Food is ok, compare with ample of options in this block.

The Laska here taste very authentic!! It comes with mixed egg noodles and rice noodles. Or you can ask for just either one. The soup tastes very good!! One of the best Laska I've had in LA! The fried rice is very delicious too. But it only has two shrimps. The texture of the rice is very good though. The chef did such a good job frying it! The ambience is very casual. They don't even ask for tips when we pay with credit card. It's a mom and pop restaurant, the chefs does a very good job! Hope they can get more business!!

Foods here are surprisingly good here. Very hidden and most of the time, I thought they're close. I see the customers here are very friendlier than the owner. I guess the owners are tired. Middle age couple. Perfect place to eat with great Singaporean food.

The food is pretty good but the service is bad. I requested for a fork but the lady boss said please come and get it yourself.

complete waste of time. My 3 yr old could prepare a better meal.
I would like to give this restaurant a chance but man they make it difficult to do so. I think businesses that charge a minimum purchase for card transactions it's a total bs. But, adding a $2 extra fees on top of a minimum purchase amount for a Visa card that's issued overseas, now that's just stealing. this is really shameful.

Nice spot for a quick lunch and coffee. My go-to is the Combination Char Hor Fun (#12, or gravy noodles) and the Kopi with condensed milk. Both were pretty tasty! Parking - theres one hour spots nearby and in front of the restaurantThere's also a 15 dollar minimum to pay with credit card.

So glad to find this place. The owner are very nice and the food satisfy our family craving for Indonesian/Singaporean foods. From Laksa, Nasi Goreng Indonesia, Char Kway Teow, Black Tea... all yummy. Prices are reasonable. We will come back for sure.
