Ended up at Ha Cafe on a whim when our original lunch plan fell through, and what a delightful surprise it turned out to be! Nestled right next to the closed Mui Garden Restaurant, Ha Cafe offers a genuine taste of Vietnamese cuisine. I savored their BBQ chicken and pork rice, which was exceptionally juicy and flavorful, truly capturing the essence of authentic Vietnamese dishes. My friend enjoyed their beef noodle soup, which was equally satisfying. We tried both hot and cold Vietnamese coffee, which were average, but the overall meal experience was wonderful. The staff were welcoming and friendly, enhancing our visit. Definitely planning a return visit to explore more of their menu!

Lemongrass chicken on rice impressed me. A bit sweet, full of flavour and grilled to perfection. Noodle soup was also very nice, recommended!

I don’t usually go to Kingsway nearby Metrotown for foods but this time I felt like having lunch outside rather than eating in food court. I searched for Vietnamese cafe and I found this place. They have pretty good reviews. I went there with my wife and we ordered grilled half pork and half chicken on rice and pho. This foods didn’t disappointed us. I was surprised the broth of the pho was gracefully rich and tasty. The beef balls had natural beef taste. The grilled pork and chicken were having a nice smoked flavour but not burnt. Well done! The owner was there serving the customers and he is friendly and welcoming. At one moment the sunlight came in from the window he immediately went to pull down the bind so the customers won’t get the sunlight directly into their eyes. He kept serving tea and refilled frequently. I’m happy with their service. In terms of foods and service quality, this is a place I will definitely return.

Special beef broth pho was excellent 👌 with price under control will go back 3 star for atmosphere cause it was painfully silent inside , maybe soft ambience would have been better.

This is a staple for pho near Metrotown mall. It does get very busy and there isn’t a lot of seating available so you may need to wait during busy periods Parking is a bit tough as it’s street parking only. For pho, they make a tasty broth and it’s very flavorful. Definitely the highlight of the meal. Not all pho is made the same and they definitely have the right mix. This review is mainly based on the food as its interior is similar to most pho places. Definitely worth stopping by for a quick bite before a movie.

Ha cafe is simply the best Vietnamese restaurant around Metrotown for me. I guess the cook comes from the same part of the country with me, that’s why I loved the fascinating taste here right at the first time. I always come here every time I crave for Bún Bò Huế (5.Spicy Beef Noodle Soup). Exactly matches my taste. Savory, sweet, spicy. Perfectly handled. Other dishes were delicious too, but not the Bánh Mì. It was disappointing, not really special at all. The service was great, since the servers always stand at the cashier, in a ready position to greet and take orders for coming customers. They are all nice and sweet. It was warm and lovely here. The decorations were simple. It is a small place. I have been here so many times and every trip was a good trip, no complains at all. Definitely coming back here again.

**Finally, a gem worth shouting about Ha Café!** First things first, the **lemongrass chicken on vermicelli?** Absolutely spot-on. The flavors **bold, fresh, and perfectly balanced.** You can taste the care in every bite. My colleague s grilled chicken and spring rolls? A duo so divine, it deserves a standing ovation. And don t even get me started on that **Vietnamese iced coffee.** Cold, rich, smooth **pure caffeine bliss.** It s like a wake-up call in a glass, done the right way. The service? **Impeccable.** Tea refilled without needing to ask **that s attention to detail.** These folks understand what it means to create an experience, not just serve a meal. Ha Café isn t just a restaurant; it s a masterclass in how to do Vietnamese cuisine justice.

Ha Cafe never disappoints. We often dine in but do take out more since we live close by and like eating at home. The portions are great, and the food is delicious. Not salty or under-seasoned! Take out never takes more than 10 mins to prepare and dining in means we get to see the lovely staff. I wish they would turn on the TV or play some music for ambiance but not a big deal :) my favourite item is the short ribs on vermicelli!! I could eat it every day.

I tried their large Rare Beef Pho. The amount of beef they gave me was very generous. My gf wasn t in the mood for pho (she never is lol) but she tried my pho later at home and she told me this was the best pho she ever had. I won t go as far as saying that but the price to food quality and quantity is very reasonable and I definitely would be back again. Customer service also was very good. The interior while small but it s very cozy.

Had the Veggie Pho (which they can make Vegan if you ask to replace fish sauce with soy sauce) with Sweet and Sour soup and it was really delicious and very soothing if you are looking for something hot for your throat. It would be great if they can explicitly mention that Veggie options on the menu can be made Vegan as well so that people are aware. Bonus: They serve hot tea as well for free

Went mid-day so not very busy. Place is clean. Prices are reasonable. I had rare beef pho. The portion was a good size with a fair amount of beef. The beef was of decent quality and not chewy like some restaurants. The broth was tasty. I was not thirsty after which I am assuming that there was not a lot of MSG in the broth. Service was excellent. I would defiantly go back again.

Quite literally the best vermicelli bowl I ve ever had, and I ve tried a lot. I never write reviews but Ha Cafe is more than deserving! Every element of the grilled pork vermicelli bowl was incredible. Perfectly crunchy spring rolls, the most flavourful and tender pork I ve ever had, and so many fresh veggies. You have to check this place out if you haven t already!

Compared to Vietnamese restaurants in Vancouver, I think its top tier. There arent many places where both pho and banh mi are delicious. A taste that all Koreans will love. Its impossible to compare it to Vietnamese restaurants in Korea. Also, they are very friendly, so I guess they will get a Michelin rating in the future. Highly recommended

Please train the servers better !!! I go here with my boyfriend sometimes because this restaurant is near our place. Before the owner is usually in the restaurant, but recently just the servers there. Today I got there, I heard the server talked to each other about me in their mother tongue, of course not saying something good. Probably they did not know I also speak the same language. I used to work as a server and I believe it is not the proper behavior of a staff, even quite rude. Please train them better, nobody wanna come to a place with that kind of customer service!! I grade 2 for the fast service and food

Had a very nice lunch at this Vietnamese cafe. It seems like a very popular place with the full tables and customers who wait for tables. The service was very pleasant and extremely quick. The one thing I noticed was the absence of fresh basil and sprouts with the pho. Perhaps you have to ask for it since prevents wastage when customers prefer not to add it to their noodles.

A nice, bright restaurant across from Metro. I had their lemongrass chicken vermicelli and it was delicious. The chicken was a good portion and flavourful.

A very modern looking vietnamese restaurant. The place is small with very tiny tables. The menu doesnt have any vietnamese on it so some thing are confusing. They have a seafood patty noodle soup with tomato. The picture looks like bun rieu but not sure. It would have been better to have both english and vietnamese. We ordered the pho dac biet and the grilled pork with spring roll vermicelli. The pho broth was well made. There was a stronger taste of one of the ingredients but I cant pinpoint which one. The bowl was on the smaller size compared to other restaurants. Bean sprouts are already in the pho and not served on the size. They also give a pinky sized lime. It would have been nice to have some herbs too. The vermicelli was also well made. The spring roll was made with rice paper which I like. The pork pieces were really tender. The bowl size was also small. Overall, their dishes are made better than some mom and pop viet noodle shops, which reflects in the price. It would maybe be compared to the viet noodle guy near brentwood.

Average pho place without anything outstanding. Its convenient location will likely be its best trait. We ordered rare beef pho and beef vermicelli.

This Vietnamese restaurant was not something i was expecting. I had high hopes. Unfortunately i was unimpressed. We had vermicelli with lemon grass chicken and grilled chicken & the shrimp salad roll. The flavors of the dishes especially the vermicelli was lacking more depth. I would not call this an authentic restaurant. The dishes are leaning more toward the westernized viet restaurant. I did not have to try the pho cause i know exactly that it was would lack richness and flavor. Definitely will not be coming back.

Always reluctant to leave anything less than 5 stars. One thing I did not like is their pho broth. It is very very sweet. My dining companion says it always is. Ive never experienced that with pho before. And i try not to judge a place by my experience with one employee, but the server was so focused on her phone, it was her priority and we were nothing more than an intrusion and interruption to how she really wanted to spend her time. I dont need to make a list of all the failings as a server - just suffice it to say they were plentiful and I didnt feel appreciated as a customer in the slightest. Two basic pho about 36 dollars with tax.

I dont want to sound rude and this is my first time doing this. The food was solid and very inexpensive. That being said, I had been taking my coffee breaks several times over the last week or two. This Cafes coffee is somewhat expensive (over 7 dollars after taxes) but I didnt mind and even tipped a couple of times. Today however, in a very insulting and loud tone and with a dozen of people in attendance...the manager had come over to where I had been seated and stated to me For future reference, we dont just serve coffee without a meal. I was very embarrassed. As an establishment, they have the right to set their own rules and I respect that, however, the message could have been conveyed more... respectfully as well discreetly, perhaps? Also, this is a cafe and in my experience, Cafes are known to serve just coffee, are they not? Again. Up to the owners. They just should have been more respectful as I had recommended this place to several of my friends. I wont be returning for my breaks any longer as I only have half hour. I may return some other days when I am not working, however, I dont feel too comfortable given what happened. Cheers.

Its bit of a hidden gem of a restaurant. I ordered the Spicy Beef Noodle soup and it was fantastic! The noodles were fresh, the meat provided were good portions and the broth had a nice kick to it. The service was great and were very attentive. Not sure if the AC was broken but it was quite warm in there for my liking but other than that, I would definitely come back!

Highly recommended for the beef stew noodle soup! Rich favoured in beef flank and the sweetness from the vegetables makes out the soup!

I got helicobacter from this place. I was really ill and couldnt eat anything for 3 months as the treatment for this was x4 heavy meds that made me feel like I was dying. That treatment didnt work so I had to do the x3 med treatment, which was just as bad. This place doesnt deserve a star. You only get helicobacter from 3rd world countries in which unsanitary handling of food and kitchen take place.That days a lot on its own.

The food is delicious and as straightforward as it can get. You will definitely be full after eating here. Food comes out quickly but the quality is always there. The banhmi, pho, and lemongrass chicken rice all are flavourful! The chicken wings were ok, but I definitely prefer the calamari over them. We never have to wait long for a table, even during peak hours. Service is average, they dont really make small talk which personally is ok with me since I just want to eat! They also take credit card which is a +1.

I stopped by on a whim, just walking by and saw their Bahn Mi and thought Id give it a shot. Im so glad I did. This is by far the tastiest vietnamese sub Ive had. A crisp airy crust covering the soft insides of the bun, with fresh, flavorful ingredients inside. Cant wait to go back and try other items. Had this bahn mi 3 days ago and Im still thinking about it. Great job Ill be back

Still as good as they used to be when they were located in Old Orchard. Its been a while since we last visited but the spicy chicken wings are skewers a good option here. Not so much spicy per se but a nice crunch to the exterior and good flavour (especially with the dipping sauce). Also had the grilled chicken and spring roll on vermicelli. I like that they use rice paper wrapper for the spring roll as it gives it a much nicer crunch. A mango smoothie and cold Thai milk tea to round out our meal. The place was suitably busy during the lunch hour.

My new go-to spot for Vietnamese food in Burnaby. Ive been here a few times already since they relocated, and they never disappointed. Great Food, Friendly & Fast Service! Place is a bit small compared to their old location. But this location is much for them. I will be back soon, if not later this evening. Lol

Great place to get Vietnamese food. Got the pork on rice with spring roll. A little too much rice and not enough pork. Service was prompt and constant. The owner is very attentive and fills your tea constantly and provides suggestions on what to eat and how. Parking is street parking.

This place is not deserving of 4.3. Not even 4.0. For those of you who rated this 5 stars, theres much MUCH better places not too far away and at the same price. The food was too sweet and too one-dimensional in flavour.

Had their seafood noodle soup, which had a good variety of ingredients as advertised (fair-sized shrimp, shrimp balls, shrimp wonton which could have been larger, napa cabbage, bok choy and crispy fried onion/shallot bits). The broth was flavourful! It didnt taste too salty or filled with MSG. Service was friendly. Came during lunch hour and it was quite busy, so it seems popular with locals and is in a nice location across from Metrotown Mall. Would come back to try a combo meal.

This is our go-to place for Vietnamese food. Quality is consistently high. We usually order a Vietnamese sandwich (grilled chicken is best, I think), and either a noodle soup or vermicelli with grilled meat. Good portion size and good taste. We have been there over a dozen times, and they have never disappointed. Highly recommended.

the food was delicious :) i m vegetarian and they had a few veg options on the menu and it was probably some of the best vietnamese food i ve had. Their hot and sour tofu soup had a base made of tomato and pineapple which was an ingredient I ve never tried in soup before. Portions were extremely generous, and we didn t even end up eating our banh mi

The manager kicked us out after 45 min! My friends and I were eating lunch this afternoon (after lunch rush) and we were asked to leave twice my the manager after only having been in the restaurant for 45 min. The second time he asked us to leave, my friend told him how we hadn t not been there for long - not even a full hour - and the manager started arguing with us loudly. This was very embarrassing for us, for him, and for the rest of the restaurant. Because of this experience, I will not be returning to eat here, and neither will my friends.

Short and sweet menu but they do a great job on the classics, pay attention to special requests & allergies, and are definitely among the more homey-feeling restaurants you can find on this strip. Perfect comfort food at a perfectly reasonable price. Be aware it s a pretty small location. Not always a bad quality for a restaurant to have, but on my visit there was a group of people using vulgar language, telling gross stories about bodily functions, and everything else you can imagine not wanting to hear during dinner, and it was impossible to ignore because their conversation carried and drowned out every other noise in the place.
