    House Combination Pho - $19
    Michael X.

    I love Vietnamese food and was in the mood for some while in New York, and Nón Lá looked to be a well rated spot in the Manhattan area. I went on a Friday in mid-afternoon and was able to get a seat immediately. Since it wasn't too busy the time I went, the restaurant was quiet with a few other diners. I can see this place getting busy during a meal rush - do note that there are probably 5-6ish tables in the restaurant, and as other reviewers have mentioned, ambiance-wise it does feel like a neighborhood place for people to meet up and enjoy a meal. Ordering is fast, I placed my order through a waiter was able to get my food in about 5-10 minutes. I got two options - the House Combination Pho ($19) and the Crispy Spring rolls for $10. I got the pork version of the spring rolls, and they were tasty. Thin crispy shell with a fragrant filling that paired nicely with the herbs and vegetables. As for the Pho, the broth was delicious, you could definitely taste some cinnamon and subtle sweetness. Better than the average broth were the fish sauce taste tends to overwhelm the general taste. Both dishes will scratch that itch for Vietnamese food nicely. I think in the end, if you are looking for some quick Vietnamese food in Manhattan, Nón Lá would full fill that craving nicely. I understand that it is expensive to host a restaurant in Manhattan, so prices will be definitely on the more expensive side unfortunately ($10 for some fried spring rolls and $19 for a one size pho is expensive!).

    2.5 Stars. A subpar Vietnamese dining experience. We got the House Combination Pho, the Bun Bo Hue, and the Bun Rieu. The broth flavor was not particularly pronounced in both the Pho and the Bun Bo Hue. The Bun Bo Hue was only lukewarm. The Bun Rieu was just warm too and had a cold spare rib that I bit into--we had to ask them to reheat it. In spite of that, the Bun Rieu was the tastiest. Some of the side veggies were brown/wilting as well. Disappointing

    Good standard bowl of pho here. Service was quick and prices were reasonable. Would come again if I'm in the area.

    Very friendly service,cute little shop with beautiful decorations and art. The house limeade is refreshing and sweet and the Bun bo hue was the best I ever had it was hearty and delicious. Favorite Vietnamese in the area.

    Pho Chin Nam
    Jeffrey M.

    My wife and I were craving Vietnamese food, and based on where we were in the city, Nón Lá seemed like the best option nearby, so we decided to give it a try. We're glad we did! We started with the Cha Gio (veggie crispy spring rolls), and they were a great appetizer - crispy, flavorful, and well-seasoned without feeling too oily. For dinner, we both ordered the Pho Chin Nam (beef brisket pho). The broth was rich and comforting, the portion was generous, and the brisket was tender. Definitely hit the spot and satisfied our craving. For drinks, I ordered their homemade lemonade, and I appreciated that it actually tasted freshly made rather than from a mix. Service was friendly, fast, and attentive despite how busy it was. While we were there, the restaurant was popping. It stayed consistently busy with a wait time of about 10-20 minutes. The space inside is small, but they offer outdoor seating as well. If you have time, waiting isn't a bad option, but if you're on a tight schedule, ordering ahead is definitely the way to go. The ambiance had a casual, cozy feel with a lively crowd, making it a great spot for a casual dinner or a quick bite. Overall, Nón Lá was a great choice for Vietnamese food in the area, and we'd definitely return.

    Bo Luc Lac (shaking beef cubes)

    What's a trip to New York without stopping for some great Vietnamese food with great vibes!! Nón Lá is family owned (the owner is a family friend we haven't seen for a looong time) that really embraces Vietnamese cozy homebody cuisine with its ambience and great service! Nestled in SoHo, grab a seat inside or patio dining. I was seated relatively quickly on a Saturday afternoon but I will say that they do fill up real quick as we were sat down. Pictured below are as follows: Bo luc lac (shaking beef) with rice & salad The star of the show and what I usually order whenever I dine at a Vietnamese restaurant! Their filet mignon pieces are melt in your mouth goodness! They give you a super generous portion of rice and veggies and is easily shareable amongst a table of two! When I come back again I'll substitute to fried rice for $2 extra for an amazing flavor burst, I would come here everyday if I lived in the city again! Bun Bo hue: Suggested and offered by my family friend Tommy; they nailed this to a tea... I'm not used to the spicey broth as I don't get this often. This hearty bowl of soup was surprisingly refreshing to beat the heat! Every piece of meat was a flavor adventure of its own. This bowl easily is shareable amongst a table of 4 unless you're feeling extra gluttonous! Bo Xao (Beef Salad): Personal preference; hot cooked beef ontop of a fresh bowl of salad is like eating a cooked sweet greens salad. The slices of filet mignon were packed with sweet unagi flavor profiling complimented with the onions! Another shareable plate, order with a side of rice as a meal! I honestly see this dish as an appetizer in Vietnamese cuisine, generally enjoyed with a carb like a baguette on the side. Vietnamese fried calimari WOW!!! The sauce pairing was to die for! I licked the whole plate clean even the peppers and onions and garlic! Each piece was easy to chomp on with a no rubbery texture! I have no other words to explain this big portion of crispy battered goodness.... Overall, tasty, great service, great pricing with big portions! It's not easy finding great Vietnamese cuisine in NYC... because it's all in California haha. If you go tell the owner & Tommy, billy recommended you

    Beef brisket pho

    No wait for 2 people for lunch on New Year's Day. It's a small spot and was pretty full though, though so plan accordingly. I ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee, and my boyfriend and I shared the Bun bo hue and beef brisket pho. Both broths were incredible. Beef itself was mid, but god damn those broths were good. Great service, too. Would return! 4.5 stars.

    As someone who has a hard time finding good viet food in nyc, this place has my stamp of approval. My viet chi and anh, rejoice. The portions are big too. Highly recommend the banh cuon and bun bo hue

    Wanted a vermicelli noodle salad bowl for lunch and stumbled across Nón Lá. I ordered the combination without pork, so just shrimp and veggie spring rolls. I asked for additional veggies because it was mainly noodles and I was craving a salad. The shrimp was cooked to perfection!! It was crispy and cooked on charcoal, I think? I was very impressed with the service as well! Love this place - great authentic fast casual spot with outdoor seating!

    Bun Rieu
    Diana N.

    (I always like to preface any Vietnamese restaurant review by saying that I'm born and raised in Little Saigon in CA, so I'm very proud of the delicious viet food we have here) Non La has to be my favorite Vietnamese spot for Bun Rieu in Manhattan!!!! That's all I've had so far... but every time I come back the Bun Rieu is always calling my name. Service is great. I love seeing my Vietnamese uncle. He always gives me a side of their shrimp paste to add to the broth and it makes me feel like I'm at home again :') anyway I love this spot ok

    connie a.

    Good. Fair pricing, great service, it's friendly and fast. They are generous with the extra vegetables and the bean sprouts look healthy and not old. It's a very cute tiny restaurant with dark wood. Cozy. Great East village spot would recommend. Viet coffee is extremely strong I'd be careful about that.

    My new favorite Vietnamese place in the city!! So good. Can't wait to come back. The pho was great! It was a cold rainy day and just what I needed. We also tried the vermicelli with the lemongrass chicken and yes, so good. I've been in the hunt and at last here is Nón Lá!!

    Pho
    Taylor K.

    Some of the best Vietnamese food I've had in NYC so far! I loved the spring rolls and the pho was definitely better than lots of other places I've tried. It was savory and had lots of noodles and meat. I just wish the pho came with raw meat so it could have cooked in the broth. The restaurant is quite small. But the service is very quick and the food is reasonably priced.

I got the pho ($21.78), which is steep for pho, but I guess that's Midtown prices for you. The wait was a slog--over 20 minutes for a bowl of pho, which other Yelp reviews warned about. When it finally arrived, the soup lacked that authentic pho aroma, which was a letdown. On the plus side, the beef was fresh, and the reusable to-go bag was a nice touch. Decent, but the wait and price make it hard to love. Might try again if they speed things up.

I ordered "Plain Pho", which is described as just broth and noodles, no garnish or meat. After waiting 30 minutes, for what is literally the simplest item on the menu, the bowl is brought out and it's a bowl of broth with a couple slices of chicken. No noodles. When I inquired, the server told me it's because I ordered the Plain Pho... yea and I said it comes with noodles and broth. They told me they could get me noodles, but acted like they were doing me a favor by fetching noodles for me, which was quite offputting because the noodles were quite literally half of the dish I actually ordered. How does one wait half-an-hour at a very casual fast Vietnamese food place, for premade soup and noodles, and still have the order wrong? In the end, I did get my noodles and broth, but the fact that I had to spend this much time and also justify my request for noodles (which are part of the dish) is quite insane. I put this at 2 stars for now, because I enjoyed my first time. Hopefully the service will improve.

My daughter got the famous wings and those were solid. The kids especially liked the prawn chips that came with them--ended up finishing those pretty quickly. Good spot to recharge after a long day out, especially if you're with family and want something satisfying without overthinking it.

It is known for…read morecrowds, noise, and restaurants that seat you next to a stranger close enough to accidentally share an appetizer. So when my family stumbled into Pho 39, a tiny spot with just a handful of tables tucked away from the chaos outside, it felt less like finding a restaurant and more like discovering a Rebel outpost that somehow survived undetected in the middle of Imperial territory. The menu is exactly what you'd expect from a solid Vietnamese spot: pho, combination rice plates, the usual lineup. We were ready to order and move on with our lives. Then we saw the tacos. Vietnamese tacos. On the menu. Sitting right there between the banh mi and the spring rolls like they'd always belonged. Nobody in my family said anything for a full three seconds, which for us is basically a standing ovation. We ordered the duck spring rolls to start, which were fresh, well packed, and disappeared faster than a starfighter in hyperspace. For the mains we went with the beef flank pho and the banh mi combination special. The pho had a clean, well developed broth that clearly had some time put into it, and the beef flank was tender enough to make you slow down and pay attention. The banh mi combo was solid, balanced, and hit all the right notes. We did not get the tacos this visit, which means we have a built in reason to return and nobody can argue with that logic. For a small room in the middle of one of the busiest cities on the planet, Pho 39 manages to feel genuinely calm and focused. Good food, good value, and a menu with enough surprises to keep things interesting. The Force is strong with this little spot.

My sandwich was ready for me too which was great, in and out, easy. The sandwich itself is delicious! It comes with a small ramekin of very spicy rooster sauce. I would definitely order for pickup from here again for the days I want to grab a quick lunch and get right back to work!
