Pho Viet in Edinburgh, City of

Lovely, simple, tasty food. I had dinner before catching a train at Haymarket. It was quiet and the service was good, and it felt like a quiet and relaxing place. My stir-fry was tasty. Very happy.

Great place with Vietnamese food!

Absolutely delicious food and friendly staff. Thank you!

I love this place!! Massive dishes and extremely good! First time here....but I highly recommend it!

An authentic taste of Vietnamese Cuisine in the heart of Edinburgh city centre. Highly recommend for those who are seeking for Vietnamese healthy dishes. Friendly staff and spacious place with variety seats 💐

We ordered summer spring rolls, stir-fry bokchoi and 2 spicy noodle dishes beef and fish cake. The spicy beef noodles we asked for no coriander and still they jampacked it with coriander. The summer rolls were flavourless and the sauce was too sweet. The fish cake noodles was also flavourless, tasted of watered down fish broth. The stir-fry bokchoi was ok but £16 nowhere near. As well as that we asked for 2 tap waters at the start of the meal and had never received them. Would not recommend stay away from this place

Small restaurant, more like a cafe. The tables are close together. The food is very tasty. I recommend it. You can have a quick, tasty, satisfying meal. You can also order takeout, delivery is available. Comfortable

A very nice Vietnamese restaurant Tasty food, fast service, friendly staff Price a bit high but portions were big

If we could give it more stars we would!! 🤩 Absolutely spot on experience - friendly staff, really nice decor, and the food was incredible. My wife said the best Pho she's maybe ever had, and my fried squid and sunshine curry was delicious. Also the Vietnamese coffee is ace. Highly recommend!

I believe this is the best service I’ve ever experienced, in any restaurant! Fantastic staff, who hit exactly the right spot between being friendly and attentive and not too overbearing. Great food as well. Highly recommended

Great choice of Vietnamese soup based meals for all tastes. My meal was termed spicy and was quite hot 🥵 . But I survived !

The restaurant area is comfortable and clean👍 The service staff are very friendly👍 raw beef pho tastes pretty good👍

I ordered a Bun bo Hue for collection, and it was ready in 10 mins. It was absolutely delicious, the broth was so flavoursome and not lacking in spice and fragrance. They were so generous with the beef, it was never ending! Thank you so much for a great first meal in Edinburgh!

The service here was absolutely lovely - so friendly and helpful. The food here was good, nice flavours and definitely satisfying. However, I would say that at £17 for a noodle dish (vegetarian), it feels a little overpriced.

10/10 atmosphere, 10/10 service, 10/10 food, overall 10/10 experience

Although from outside this restaurant doesn't look nice, inside is very authentic. Restaurant was full of people and we were lucky to get a table. Meal was delicious, served very quickly and all for reasonable price.

It’s over price. We had been charged £15.5 for 1 portion boiled broccoli. I ordered egg fried rice but after it came out with some like curry sauce mixed with that. I spoke to the manager that I want normal egg fried rice but she refused to change that and i end up to pay double for that egg fried rice which was cost £33 ( they charged £16.5 for 1 portion egg fried rice). The service was bad, they kept missing or mistake with the order. Not recommended.

Staff are service are nice but... Over price, food are not freshly cooked and not authentic or traditional. Maybe they are good only at Noodles, not sure.

I was charged £17 for a portion of veggie stir fry noodles to take away, they had no sauce, little tofu and some veggies.. this is awful 🙃

Good service and atmosphere. Food isn’t what we were expecting.

Pho and spicy pho were so great and also they allowed my dog with pet stroller. The service was better than perfect.

Tasty pho, quick service, in a lovely restaurant space that is not too loud but is still lively.

Best asian restaurant I ate in Edinburgh! I ordered the chicken fried rice and the thai milk tea. Both were so yummy, the portions are huge for an affordable price. I will for sure come back next time I’m in Edinburgh!

Had the chicken pho- came out quick and was served at the perfect temp, with fixing with mint sprouts and 1 lime. The broth was very flavorful and tangy perfect salt level. Big portion as well. I got 2 drinks the cold milo came out with a layer of foamy cream so good! And i got a thai milk tea takeaway also came with a layer of cold foam cream very tasty. Overall a positive experience. Prices align with being in edinurgh and rents being high it was worth it. Thanks! Theres park to pay right across the street if you need a place to put your car btw.

This restaurant is located close to Haymarket Station and serves authentic Vietnamese cuisine. There were hardly any customers in the store after 1pm on weekdays, but it was crowded in the evening. There were various types of pho such as beef, shrimp, and chicken, but I ordered the chicken pho (14.5 lbs.). I was surprised that the rice bowl arrived in just 5 minutes after I ordered it. I guess it takes less time to boil pho. The taste was delicious and the quantity was large.

The meat is slightly salty, the dish is beautifully decorated. Every time I've eaten here, I've found the meat salty and the service is good.

Very tasty and authentic food. Very good service.

The food was really yummy and the interior was cute!! Great meal and atmosphere for a rainy day.

Was in the Haymarket area for business and ‘popped ‘ in with my family. Really authentic and very tasty food 10/10 definitely recommend. We will be back again.

I live locally, the portion has been smaller recently. This time I ordered drinks and they said they didn’t have ice, I agreed, but when the drinks came to me I noticed they were only 2/3 of a normal portion, the waiter said they had no ice so it’s going to be a smaller portion. -which makes no sense The next thing I knew was that the service charge alone for that one meal was £5 …

Went for the basic Pho with raw beef. The portion was good and was served very quick. The flavor of the broth was good and the meat was tender. The type of basil wasn't the best but maybe that's common here. For an extra kick, recommend adding the pickled garlic from the jars. They are amazing but use sparingly

We arrived an hour before closing and they were very kind, they gave us a table and brought out the food very quickly. We ordered Pho soup and it was very delicious. We tried the Vietnamese coffee which was very special!

Delicious, generous portions, reservation required, waiters are polite, worth a try

Been a few times now. It’s a BYOB and we go just up Dalry Road to get wine. A good bottle shop there. At £3 pp corkage that is good value. The food is flavoursome. Some dishes I like more than others. My favourite is the prawn and chicken crispy pancake. It’s a starter but a good portion. All the food choices have good portion sizes . I tried the fried rice this time. Was really tasty too. The staff are generally very friendly but not overly fussing. Next time Haymarket Train Stn so handy just to pop into Edinburgh for an impromptu meal.

I ordered Pho Bo and Banh Xeo and it was so delicious that if I could have given it 6 stars, I would have. It was as delicious as the pho I had at a pho restaurant in Hanoi. I highly recommend it.

Great, authentic food at fair prices with friendly waiters.

Really delicious Vietnamese food 😋 Local and service also very good.

We arrived to Edinburgh on a cold rainy day. Nothing could beat a hot bowl of Pho. Plus I didn’t feel like going out for dinner, so I browsed for Viet restaurants on UberEats. Pho Viet was the first restaurant popped up. I was very hangry at the time, so I didn’t bother to look at reviews on Yelp or Google reviews before placed my order. For main dishes, we ordered Pho Bo, Bun Bo Hue, Com Suon Nuong, and Bun Thit Nuong. For drinks/desserts, we got the Thai Tea, Vietnamese iced coffee, and Vietnamese Rainbow Drink ( Che Ba Mau). Our food was delivered 40 minutes later. When I opened the Pho container, it smelled so so good. Unfortunately, the broth wasn’t really hot as I normally wanted. I understood that I shouldn’t have expected too much because the Uber guy delivered food for us on a bicycle in this freezing cold weather. I was lazy to heat up the broth so I just ate like that.The broth was delicious even though it wasn’t smoking hot. I thought I had a good Pho bowl in London, but I was wrong. Pho Bo at Pho Viet restaurant was the bomb!!! I was born and raised in Vietnam so I set a pretty high bar for Viet food. In my opinion, the taste of Pho Bo here was authentic. The meat was tender and flavorful. It came with a lot of herbs and veggies. I was really surprised/happy that I could eat a very good Pho bowl in Scotland. The Bun Bo Hue broth was the same as Pho broth, except the noodle was Bun Bo Hue kind, and it came with a scoop of shrimp chili oil paste ( sa te tom). I would say it wasn’t cooked traditionally but it was still good. Basically, it was a Spicy version of Pho Bo lol I loved the taste of the meat in Com Tam Thit Nuong and Bun Thit Nuong. For these 2 dishes, the portions were kinda small compared to the price. Both Vietnamese iced coffee and Thai tea was good 10/10. The Che Ba Mau was alright, nothing special. You can skip this dessert but definitely get the Viet coffee or Thai milk tea. Overall, I loved the food here. They have a very good menu. It was a bit pricey but an average meal in Scotland costs between £15-20 per person so it seemed standard here. I would suggest to skip the starters and get the entrée for a better deal. Pho Viet is a nice change of pace from Scottish food. Highly recommend!

Would say this is a bit of a hidden gem in Edinburgh, great food!

First time trying Vietnamese food, and this place blew my mind. Everything was so pure and flavourful, it really felt authentic. The venue was so cozy, with cool decorations and lovely staff. Would 100% recommend if looking to try some new food.

Des plats simples et digestes ce qui change globalement de la cuisine locale Bon accueil et service assez rapide. Beaucoup de débit car la vente à emporter est dynamique. Préférable de réserver car la salle est petite On a bien aimé au point d'y dîner 2 fois

Lovely restaurant and well worth a visit

I took my food to go so didn’t experience the service and atmosphere but my pho was soooo good and delicious. Would come back!

Had the lunch deal which was a good price and delicious. If you don't do heat believe what it says on the menu!

Sooooo tasty! Spicy vermicelli soup and shaking beef were both delicious 🤤

The beef pho wasn’t very authentic —the broth wasn’t aromatic enough :( The bun cha tasted ok! But the portion size was rather small for the steep price.

Lovely place,definitely five 🌟 Lovely food

The food is so good and my Vietnamese wife said that she can taste the taste from Vietnam, especially for the fish. Just be aware of the small bone.

Service was a bit cold upon arrival and inconsistent throughout. Atmosphere was lovely and cozy. Good temperature and distance between tables. Beef in betel leaf tasted nice but texture was very dry and crumbly. Fried pork and shrimp spring rolls were excellent. The bun bo hue with raw beef was not spicy at all and tasted very bland but was a generous portion. Was hardly anything like the traditional style in my opinion. I would highly recommend both the roast duck and braised pork and caramel sauce. Both dishes were delicious. The special Vietnamese coffee is not to be missed to top off your meal.

Pho is good and worth it although it is a little pricey. However, I wouldn't recommend you to order starters and desserts as they are overpriced for such a small portion that they serve. For example, BBQ Quail Vietnamese Style costs £11.50 but you only get two pieces of Quail legs, which are chopped into half, so basically a total of 4 pieces. However, they are full of bones so you hardly get to eat any meat. Vietnamese Rainbow costs £5. If you see the menu, you can see that the dessert cup is filled to the brim. However, what you actually get is 3/4 filled cup with a lot of ice flakes in it. Hence, they are absolutely not worth the price. You won't be getting what you will be paying for. You will be much better off ordering decent and cheaper desserts or starters somewhere else. Even some curries are cheaper than the starters/appetisers in this restaurant.

Had lunch at this wee gem yesterday. What a find - the staff are so friendly and efficient and the food - my gosh - was amazing. We had grilled prawns to start, the beef, squid and rolls and it was so full of flavour. I had catfish for the first time and it was just so tasty. Probably one of the nicest meals Ive ever had. BYOB also a bonus too! Will definitely be back! Thank you for looking after us so well.

What a treat! Exceptional service and phenomenal curry and pho!

Die Pho mit Beef war köstlich und die Bedienung super nett. Da sie keinen Alkohol servieren haben sie uns angeboten in einem nahegelegenen Store Alkohol zu kaufen und diesen dann im Lokal zu konsumieren. Total cooler Kompromiss!

We had amazing, authentic food that was cooked from fresh and super tasty. I highly recommend this place! Food is stunning

The best restaurant in Edinburgh!!! Their food so delicious.

The meat is a bit salty The broth is okay Service was friendly. Asian Food is a good place except for the outrageous prices of 13-14 pound noodles.

I really enjoyed the vegetarian option after an underwhelming visit to Glasgow. I had a lot of pizza the night before so it was a blessing for my bowels to have enough veggies to flush it all out. This lunch kept me going until late at night where I just craved more of their delicious salad. Scotland should have more places like this. 🌱🌿🏔️

Pleasant, cozy and interior authentic Vietnamese restaurant. The business has great, helpful service, reasonable prices and delicious food. We ordered the chicken pho, which was perfectly seasoned. The only caveat, which is more about personal preference, is serving the mung sprouts separately from the soup.

Stopped here when all trains were cancelled and I couldn't have made a better choice. I love a good Pho soup but this one was by far the best I have ever had. Took a stir fry as take away for my partner and he loved it. Will definitely be back for more 🙂 highly recommend!

Super super good viet!!!! sorry my table booking didn't go through no idea what caused that but I am so thankful that you let me in regardless I did my best to vacate my table for/before the time allotted. absolutely will be trying to book a table again whenever I'm back in Edinburgh. hopefully the next time is less stressful for both parties as I'd love to try some more food on the menu! 🥹

好好食，大大碟，好抵食，小朋友連湯都飲埋，空間足夠，服務好好，下次會再黎😋唔好意思，真係好好味，影左唯一一張相，証明食得好乾淨😂

Went here for a meal and the food, atmosphere and service were excellent. Would recommend

Loved this restaurant! The best pho broth I've tasted in a very long time, and the crispy pancake was a rare find and so satisfying after a long time. Also had a viet iced coffee and it was nostalgia in a glass. Food came out at a decent time even though the place was quite busy.

The place is nice and comfy, and the service is good and very quick, very friendly staff. The problem is the food is average; we tried the summer rolls, fried rolls, fried egg rice with beef and fried duck rice. The best one was the fried egg rice, the rest wasn’t very tasty. The Lemon sorbet was very nice. BYOB: £3 per person

영국에서 먹은것중에 제일 맛있었다 서비스차지도 받지않았고 꽤 친절했다 계산서에 새콤달콤같은것도 껴줘서 기분이 좋아졌다!

Absolutely amazing Vietnamese restaurant. Friendly and polite staff, food is super fresh and delicious, full of flavour and the lemon iced tea is outstanding. Will definitely be back to try more things !

Great Vietnamese restaurant serving proper authentic Vietnamese food. Very friendly service. Have been a few times and will be back! Can sometimes be very busy in the evening, however, think they serve the same menu at lunchtime, so I would recommend visiting around then.

We visited with family of 7 including 1year old and 3 year old. The restaurant was so accommodating. Had a booster seat my 1 year old for once didn't want to climb out of and they even supplied us with baby cutlery and bowl which was a great pleasant suprise. Really recommend this place for families. Food was really nice too!!

We found this amazing restaurant in google maps and gave us one of the best dinners we had at Edinburgh. We ordered two traditional Pho Soups and it was super tasteful and warm. The dessert was also amazing (I wish I have ordered two) ✨💕

First time dining alone and the staff were all lovely and welcoming. The food was absolutely incredible. Perfectly cooked and packed with so much flavour.

Οι δύο σούπες που πήραμε δεν ήταν καλές. Άγευστες και "αδύναμες" Ίσως να ήταν κακή επιλογή γιατί όλα τα υπόλοιπα τραπέζια είχαν κρεατικά και φαινόταν ενδιαφέροντα. Όταν κάναμε κράτηση μας είπαν ότι μπορούμε να φέρουμε το ποτό μας με επιπλέον χρέωση 6£. Η περιοχή έχει καλύτερες επιλογές.

The best Vietnamese place in UK. The portion of Pho is bigger than the one I had before one of the Vietnamese restaurant in Edinburgh. I still think it’s worth. Staff are friendly and nice place to chill with your partner and also with friend. Highly recommended.

The staff is not friendly, the food is too little compared to the price. expensive

한국인 입맛에 간이 딱 맞고, 성인여자 기준 적당한 양. 특히 마늘피클이 사이드로 있어서 만족 😋 2번 방문 모두 누들시켰고 새우,생고기 넣어서 시켜봤는데 둘 다 진한 국물이 맛남. 비오거나 많이 추운날 방문 추천

Came here with my girlfriend, and the staff were absolutely wonderful. An incredibly accomodating place, and the food was beautiful!

I really recommend this restaurant. The service was very good and the food and also the drink came so fast and was very delicious. I had a Pho Bo with raw beef which was so tender and tasty. Also the atmosphere there was authentic.

Nice and tasty food very well cooked, friendly staff and good prices.

Good Pho and Vietnamese drip coffee.

Pho with raw beef. Good but not the best. The stick is not as good as the Pho Cafe in St James Quarter. It was served with only bean sprouts and some mint. The the holy basil and chillies were absent.

Walked in here, off the street, persuaded by the menus and happy staff. Sat at our table quickly and drinks order taken by very friendly and welcoming staff. Sparkling water and a mango juice, followed by a fried vegetable spring roll starter. For mains, we loved our choice if grilled street food (chicken) and stir fried rice. Both tasted fresh and perfectly balanced. Total price was approximately £53. Good value for the location, quality of food and excellent service. Highly recommend!

Fantasic!!!!! All dishes are wonderful. Service is good. Friendly staffs. Highly recommend for everyone!!!

Arrive at Haymarket station early, order and enjoy a pint in the pub opposite. Then return and enjoy your takeaway on the steps round the corner whilst watching the folk going to and fro around the station. I was instantly transported back to a little plastic stool on the streets of Hanoi. Got to be good with chopsticks to do this, otherwise just eat-in. A particularly delicious meal. Can't wait to return.

It tastes great and the waiter is very friendly.

As I'm visiting Vietnam soon I enjoyed a fabulous meal. Guided by our waiter because it was our first visit, we thoroughly enjoyed our food. We'll definitely be back!

Such a good service and brilliant food! Try the duck!

Leckeres, authentisches Restaurant mit sehr nettem Personal! Definitiv ein Besuch wert!

The best pho ever 😋 ! Excellent service.

We have been to Vietnam a few times and have not had better food than this unpretentious restaurant in the west end of Edinburgh. Everything from the spring rolls and quail entrees to the duck was absolutely amazing. Simply the best. Well done chef and the efficient and friendly wait staff.

Amazing Pho, welcoming staff, great Vietnamese coffee. Will be back next time in Edinburgh.

Food was amazing and authentic. The setting is cozy and there’s nice art hung to set a nice environment as well!

Lemongrass pork with rice hit the SPOT! The meat was soft, tender, and juicy, just as I remembered eating this dish years ago (in another country). The side vinegar and chili sauce was sweet. Don't be fooled by the chilis in it; there was no spice to it at all. Lather the meat in the sauce and eat it with the vegetables, rice, and egg for an unforgettable experience. I tried Thai milk tea. Being from Thailand, I had high expectations for it and boy, did they deliver. The drink was sweet, helped by the thick, heavy cream mixed well with the brewed tea. Tastes just like home! To date, no Thai milk tea has some close to Pho Viet's one and I have tried many. For anyone craving Thai milk tea, this place is the real deal. I'd definitely return to Pho Viet again. Hands down, one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I have tried to date!

Good food and nice place. Maybe I missed more Viet food options but what we had was enough

The Pho were good no question about it. Their signature roast duck was fabulous - crispy skin with juicy duck meat. It appeared more like deep fried then roasted. Very tasty nonetheless. The grilled pork with fried spring rolls was another dish we enjoyed very much. Loved that they serve authentic fish sauce based condiments with the dishes.

Wonderful place and delicious meals!! Will definitely come back.

The reason for the 4 star is I enjoy listening to music but I rather listen to Vietnamese music to feel I visiting Vietnam but I highly recommend going here I will come again. Love wee restaurant friendly staff good food and a sweet tea set

Tasty salt pepper squid, the best I’ve had for a while - crispy and succulent. Beef and beef meatball pho was aromatic. Beef wasn’t the best/ most refined cuts I’ve ever had but I’m comparing from South London Vietnamese restaurants who cater for local Vietnamese community. Not sure id have the meatballs again. But overall tasty and exceeded expectations. Was about double the piece I am used to paying in London - £8-11 for a starter and £13-17 for a main is quite steep I think. Decor ok although lighting a harsh yellow at night. 2 niggles - why not give a proper Asian soup spoon (like a little ladle) - was hard to eat the soup. And no chill oil/ garlic offered at the table. It felt quite basic canteen ambiance but for the price I’d usually be expecting something a bit more refined food and decor wise. But overall food was good and glad to have found this near to Haymarket.

I haven't been in Vietnam but I love Vietnamese food and this place only confirmed it.

Zin in Vietnamees, dus even googelen. Deze kwam naar boven met prima beoordelingen. 20 minuten wandelen vanuit het centrum van Edinburgh. Absoluut de moeite waard. Ik had de creamy curry met garnalen (prawns) en gestoomde rijst: HEERLIJK. Bediening aardig en attent. DOEN!!!

Nice soup, fried rice. Amazing food
