About Ly Heng Restaurant

Located at 4451 University Ave, San Diego, CA 92105, Ly Heng Restaurant operates as a pan-asian restaurant serving San Diego in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under asian restaurant, chinese restaurant, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.

Portion sizes and pricing swing widely across this group, from a $10 lunch bowl to a multi-course tasting menu at an upscale sushi counter, so checking recent reviews and photos is more useful than the price range alone. In San Diego, dinner reservations for popular izakaya, hot pot and Korean BBQ spots fill up on Friday and Saturday nights, so booking ahead or arriving at opening is worth it. Many restaurants across California run daily lunch specials on weekdays that are not listed on the dinner menu, so it is worth asking. Halal, vegetarian and gluten-free options vary a lot by kitchen; call ahead if you have a dietary restriction rather than assuming the menu will note it.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. Typical hours are 10 am–3 pm. It is closed on Wednesday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. You can reach Ly Heng Restaurant at (619) 280-8688; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions.

Customers rate it 4.5 out of 5 on Google across 210 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded pan-asian restaurants in San Diego.

San Diego is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and San Diego follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Love this place for hủ tiếu! Their Phnom Penh–style rice noodles are delicious in both soup and dry versions, just like in Vietnam. My husband loves the stir-fried flat rice noodles, it has that perfect wok hei flavor. Portions are generous, and it’s usually not crowded, so we get seated and served quickly. Highly recommend!

This no-frills restaurant knows how to cook their food! Both the crispy egg noodle dish and the Mongolian beef dish were just cooked to perfection. The portion was so generous that one dish could’ve fed two people. The complimentary soup was so good the meat just fell off the bone. The food were not too salty and seasoned very well, the beef so tender, the gailan crispy, tofu and the noodle were so flavorful while remaining its crisp. They didn’t taste like old oil. I was also impressed by the chef’s knife skills! All the veggies were sliced in perfect thickness, all even. Even the jalapeños in vinegar were sliced so well 😆 The restaurant felt clean and every bite of the food was so indulging. We would go back again and again!

This place was great. Ordered the fired calamari, seafood noddles, and wonton soup. The wonton soup was light and flavorful. The seafood noodles come in a big portion (enough to feed 3), reasonably priced, and flavors were delicious. The fried calamari was not greasy, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. My son doesn’t eat fried calamari, but this day, he did and enjoyed them. People serving food were so nice. I will definitely go here again because of the quality of food.

First and foremost, amazing value! They really pile on the food for the price it’s kind of crazy how much will still be left in your plate after you finish your meal. The food is also DELICIOUS!! I definitely recommend the stir fry noodle with egg noodles and beef, and the house fried rice is a heaping plate of flavor. It’s a small family owned restaurant and they deserve every star, definitely bring your family and friends here :)
