Pho Thaison was my first love and I truly appreciate HEA Cafe since it's walking distance from St. Ed's.

I got it to-go and I have to say that was a mistake...the Imperial Rolls and fried snapper have been much better in the past when I have enjoyed them fresh in the restaurant. For pho, my go-to is Pho Van, in the same plaza as Sunflower. I enjoy the Banh Mi at Elizabeth Street Cafe. I'm looking forward to trying Saigon Food Truck on Airport soon.
