I’ve been before and it was fine. But this will be the last time. The food is tasty but I don’t want to pay for a large portion and receive a small portion of noodles, tiny shredded beef, lots of broth in a large bowl, hardly worth the price. If you’re in the west end there’s far better places for pho. Really disappointing!

Overview
Non Viet Hai is the Great Western Road branch of Non Viet, a small Glasgow Vietnamese group with a sister restaurant on Sauchiehall Street and a vegan offshoot in Edinburgh. Hai means "two" in Vietnamese; the menu is close to the city-centre original but the room is smaller and cosier. The cooking is fresh, unfussy Vietnamese: summer rolls, pho in small or large bowls, lemongrass vermicelli bowls, shaking beef, caramelised pork and a coconut tofu curry. There is a separate vegetarian menu and many dishes can be made vegan with vegan broth and tofu. Weekends start at 10am with a brunch menu. Seating is tight and it gets busy, so booking by phone or email is wise. Recent reviewers say it takes cash only, so bring notes. Groups of five or more pay an extra 10%.
Reviews
I have eaten at this restaurant for 3 years. I can accept the price increase every year, but I find it is getting less and less. I uploaded the photos I took before. It disappointed me. I will not recommend friends to come to this restaurant. I hope the boss will see my evaluation and correct it. One time I ordered a large portion but they gave me a small portion. I immediately questioned it and the waiter asked the chef, who said that was the way it was. Although his food is delicious, I eat less and less of it, and I don’t want something like this to happen again next time I come.
Read on Google MapsJust a FYI - one reviewer said this place is all vegan. It isn't. Though there are vegan options. Anyway, the vermicelli and pho taste was good. The pho is a more northern Vietnamese style in flavor and noodle, so expect a lighter broth than a southern style. The portions of the pho however are really disappointing - the large is about 15 or 16 pounds, and I've literally never seen a pho place give such a small bowl of pho.
Read on Google MapsYou’re indeed saving the Asian stomach! After eating the pho, my precious instant noodles can be reserved in my luggage well.
Read on Google MapsThe noodles were AMAZING - but CAREFUL SPICY!! I specifically asked not spicy and it was (for me) very spicy. But the waitress uurii gave me a drink for free when she saw me struggling and that is 10/10 customer service. Thank you for the amazing food. Recommendation: fried spring roll ❤️
