I have been going to this restaurant since it was located at the old Que Huong supermarket shopping center... then it later moved to the former Pho Cong Ly location, and I was devasted for the year or so when they closed down to their current location on Travis. The owners and waiters are ALWAYS friendly. Even the bus boys and the guys that bring out the food are nice to the customers. Its very clean and parking is manageable due to no other businesses open in the small center. I have tried nearly everything on their menu, and I have to say that I have loved everything. You can judge a good Asian restaurant (Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, etc) by how many of those customers of that culture are actually dining there!! You see many whites, hispanics, blacks... and most of all Asians here! It appeals to everyone. And if Asians like the food here, that means its authentic and tastes like what our mama's made at home. Don't think that Pei Wei and PF Chang's is the best asian food you have ever had, because it's not!! Thien An is the real deal. And for the price the food is offered at, you can more than what you've paid!!
Pros: Best Banh Xeo, friendliest service, great desserts, cheap
Cons: cash only, crazy busy during lunch
