Non La - Surry Hills

This is my second time at Non La, and I always feel it's important to write a review. Non La offers nice food, including a solid pho dish. Even though Vietnamese cuisine is not my favorite, I still found the food to be pretty good. The menu, like most Asian restaurants, is quite extensive with many options available for vegetarians. However, the downside for me is the atmosphere of the restaurant. It can feel cold in winter, warm in summer, or freezing if you are sitting under the AC. The noise level is also high and the ventilation is not great. This affected my overall dining experience, making it feel more like a quick weekday lunch than a relaxed dinner. I would recommend trying Non La if you enjoy good quality food, but it may not be the best choice if you are looking for a fun or intimate dining experience. Remember, a spoon of duck fat a day keeps the doctor away.

Fantastic Vietnamese food. Mainly ordered from the chef's specials, which are Hanoi cuisine. Would order all our dishes again brilliant spring rolls, fish with 7 Vietnamese herbs (our favourite) , the pork belly, soft shelled crab etc. All outstanding. Can't wait to come back.

Delicious food with generous portions. Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Delicious Vietnamese food that is well prepared, restaurant is a bit pokey but more private upstairs. Large menu, where you can pick at random and still not hit any duds.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in the neighborhood. The Vietnamese cuisine is fantastic, and the crispy quail is particularly amazing!
