Saved this place from my recent google map hunt for good finds and came across this shop! So glad to be able to try it on a rainy cold day because it hit the spot! Better than most Vietnamese food stalls nearby and inexpensive! Perfect rainy weather food to eat! I was impressed with the quality of the food being super good despite it being located in a non-Asian community neighborhood. Worth the trip! I always crave for Bon Bo Hue and I’m so happy they serve it here! Their chef special was super good too! The soup base tasted authentic and no msg to it!! The beef was so tender in the soup! Definitely worth coming back tho!!!

I went to Nong La on La Brea and ordered the Bo Nuong (grilled lemongrass & sesame steak). It came out quickly, and the presentation was clean and simple. The flavors were fresh, and the steak had a nice balance of seasoning without being too salty or heavy. The service was great — my waiter was friendly, checked in without overdoing it, and the vibe was relaxed and welcoming. It’s a good place to sit down and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. There’s metered street parking right out front — I paid $3 for an hour, which was enough for a full meal without stress. That alone makes it more doable compared to other LA spots. The restaurant was clean and had a calm, comfortable feel. I’d come back for sure — might try the pho or one of the noodle salads next time. Drinks and desserts looked solid too.

*Delayed post from Jan ‘25 Super impressed with this restaurant! Came here on a whim with a small group and loved the high quality service and the freshness of the ingredients. Only hiccup was that our egg rolls came out after our main entrees, but they were so good, I honestly didn’t care. Be careful though, they are HOT when they first get to the table. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and well executed. I also loved how many fresh vegetables came with our meals. Totally worth trying this place.

This Nong Lá location has been consistently great every time we’ve visited. The pho is always flavorful, and the broth tastes just right — rich, balanced, and comforting. It’s a great spot for a family meal, with friendly service and a relaxed vibe. Definitely our preferred location when we’re craving Vietnamese comfort food.

The vibe here was so amazing and well organized:) I found all the dishes were local and they were delicious! I definitely recommend the Chef’s Choice menu of the pho (Vietnamese noodles) we also had extra noodles, because it was really tasty! You can have two different sauces with the noodles, one was sweet the other was spicy:) We also had spring rolls, and it came with some pickles too, which was great too!
