  One of my fav. Viet in Burnaby! The ambiance isn't the greatest, but the food is fairly consistent. And service is quick.
  
  Recommends:
  - Seafood Patty Noodle Soup with Tomato
  - Grilled meat patties with spring roll and Vermicelli

  This place is my friend's favourite for their rice plates. We came here for lunch and it was pretty good. The place was busy around 1pm on a weekday. The waiter let us read the menu when we waited a bit before seated. He was very friendly and efficient.
  
  I had the lemongrass chicken and pork on rice while my friend had the grilled pork and spring rolls on rice. The meat was nicely seasoned on both dishes. The carrot, turnip and lettuce salad was very fresh and their pickled carrot and turnip were very refreshing.
  
  They also serve a variety of appetizers such as wings and fries, calamari, and soup, etc. Noodle and soup (pho) is a must for a Vietnamese restaurant. They also have Vietnamese subs (banh mi) and vegetarian dishes. Hot and cold beverages are also available. Gotta try other dishes another time.
  
  This place is located next to Shoppers in a strip mall on Kingsway and Willingdon where IGA is. Parking is easy.

  Returned for their delicious banh mis with a friend and enjoyed our meal together in a comfortable environment. We were able to sit for quite a while since it was a slower time and I ordered a chicken banh mi with extra veggies. Looking back, the extra was not really necessary because it was mostly pickled radishes and carrots. I love these but there intensity of the amount of pickled veggies overwhelmed all other flavours and drowned out the chicken. The chicken layer isn't very thick but it is well flavoured and the bread is deliciously crispy! My friend liked the beef stew with "Lobok" and said it was tasty!
  
  Overall, a little pricier than i remember but still tasty Banh Mis here.

  Have had decent dishes in this restaurant. I used to come here often in High School since I craved Vietnamese during the cold winter months.
  I recommend coming here during lunch time since it is in a "village centre" and it is usually busy during dinner time.
  
  I usually order Pho Tai Chin Bo Vien at Pho restaurants and the broth here is delicious! Plenty of Meat Balls and if you want to try other types of Vietnamese food they have a large variety of food you can choose from in their menu.
  
  Their staff is friendly and the serve their food pretty quickly. During high school my friends would always get The Beef Pho Broth so that could be a dish you can definitely try out.
  
  Just be mindful that this restaurant is known in the local area so check outside of the window to see when their "busy times" are.

  Decent Vietnamese food. Would not recommend to go out of your way for Ha Cafe.
  
  The diner is usually packed with people so it's hard to miss, but very plain inside, as was the food. I ordered the number 7 because it resembled 潮州 (Teochew) noodle soup - one of my favorite foods. However, I was quite disappointed by the broth's watered down taste. It literally tasted like diluted chicken / pork broth. The meat was also pretty dry, average noodles, a little unappetizing.
  
  We also ordered the shrimp salad rolls, which was also quite disappointing as it was literally only two small pieces (usually you'd expect to see 4 from an order). Taste was decent, the sauce was believe it or not.. also watered down! LOL Maybe it's to save money?
  
  Overall decent viet food. Would not recommend to go out of your way to eat here.
