If you are looking for a great place to eat breakfast, this is the place to visit. There is a wide selection and something for everyone. The staff is courteous and helpful, always keeping my coffee cup filled. This is our go to breakfast place for my wife and I.

Really really good food! Everything we ate was awesome but service was slow! If the service was better, I'd recommend it more to people coming in this area.

Located in old Gretna near Gretna City Hall, Than Than is a restaurant that has something for everyone. The name may be Vietnamese, but you will find far more than just Vietnamese cuisine on their menu. In fact, their menu is one of the most diverse that I have ever seen locally. The restaurant is very attractive. Outside there is a constant hustle and bustle of people heading to court and jockeying for parking. Inside the atmosphere is much more peaceful and serene. This would be a good place to grab a meal before you try and deal with the headache that is traffic court. On all of my visits here I have experienced very good and friendly service. The staff is young, but very experienced and knowledgeable. On my most recent visit I was with a very large party. Our server was prompt, friendly and very patient. Waiting on a group that size is always difficult, but our group was likely even more difficult. He really did a great job handling our group. The menu is expansive. They offer all of the Vietnamese specialties that are so popular here, but they also have numerous other items. While I have always had the Vietnamese food, there are all sorts of other items to choose from. I saw Italian dishes, American dishes and even steaks were available. I don't think I have ever been in another restaurant locally that has such a wide variety of items to order. The Vietnamese dishes that I have tried have been exceptional. In particular, the grilled pork bun (vermicelli) is the best I have ever had. The grilled pork is very thin, but still moist and tender. When pork is that thin it often dries out. I am not sure how they marinate the pork prior to cooking, but the flavor is incredible. I do wish that the dish didn't come with cucumbers (I always forget to order it without), but they are large enough to pick out. The other item I would recommend is the spring rolls. Again I suggest grilled pork, but the shrimp were also very good. I have not tried their pho yet, but if it is anything like the bun, I bet it's incredible. The only bad thing about Than Than is not their fault. The parking situation is difficult due to the proximity of the courthouse and city hall. There is parking directly across from the restaurant, but it fills up quickly. I really like Than Than. If you are looking for great Vietnamese and great service, look no further.

Vermicelli bowl with pork

I stopped in here for a lunch meeting and this is actually one of the few Vietnamese places, on the Westbank, that I had never visited before! First things first- parking is just dumb around here because the place is right by the courthouse. "Is there not a lot of parking?", you might be asking. Oh no, there are TONS of empty spaces, but you better be prepared to feed a meter. "I don't pay to park on the Westbank!", says I! I ended up parking a few blocks away for free and enjoyed a lovely 2 block walk from where I parked to the restaurant. When I arrived, I was struck at how large the place is. There are some big rooms in the back, if they ever get super packed or if someone decides to have a party here. While it was filled with a good crowd of jurors, I had no problem quickly finding where my dining companions were seated. Looking over the menu, I noticed that they had a good variety of both Vietnamese dishes and more basic dishes like tomato and avocado salad and grilled chicken. I had actually read some reviews of this place before I came in, and after reading Bobby B's review of the Pho, I decided to stick with a Vermicelli salad bowl with pork. This was a good sized salad with a lot of nice grilled pork, carrots, cucumbers and Vermicelli noodles on top of lettuce with fish sauce on the side. It was simple, but really good and had a lot of flavor. The pork had a really nice glaze on it that I enjoyed. All in all Thanh Thanh was fine by me. I would definitely go back if I found myself in the neighborhood.

Lackluster fries.

I hate to leave a bad review, but please do NOT get the Bahn mi sandwiches when you go to this restaurant. The bread tasted old and stale, and that is a shame with so much good, Vietnamese bread in the New Orleans area. The meat was thin and dry on the chicken (see pictures) and the pork. The fries are lackluster as you can see from the picture. The regular Vietnamese food might be ok, but we will not be coming back after the Bahn mi was that bad.

Yummy shrimp spring rolls!!!  Delish peanut sauce!
Elizabeth B.

If you are looking for traditional Thai or Vietnamese then this probably isn't your place. Although, I love their spring rolls and Tom Yum soup. They have a tuna sashimi salad that is one of my favorites. In fact, I love all their salads. This Asian restaurant is unique because they also offer the traditional American food on their menu. The people who work here are always nice and attentive. The atmosphere is pleasant. It seems as if they get most of their business at lunch time because dinner is generally quiet. I have never tried the brunch but several people have told me that it is good.

I only order short ribs from here which are so delicious. Wish they were more saucy so I can eat the tons of rice that comes with it better.

Lilly's Café is that girl…read more This was my first time visiting (even though they've clearly been THAT place forever), and now I'm mad I waited so long. From the moment you walk in, it's cozy, welcoming, and full of character. There's literally a wall of awards, Gambit's Best Of, Yelp awards, and even "WHEREY'AT" recognition. They've earned every one of them, because Lilly's lives up to the hype! I ordered: * Matcha Milk Tea - 10/10. Creamy, flavorful, and now has a chokehold on me. I'm coming back just for this! * Grilled Chicken Rolls (appetizer) - 10/10. Fresh, tasty, and perfectly wrapped. * Spicy Tofu with Rice & Veggies - 7/10. The flavor great, but was a little salty and wasn't hot at all. * My friend had the Spicy Shrimp Pho - 10/10 After our meal, we stepped outside to take a few pics and Lilly came out to greet us. She was so sweet and just genuinely grateful. She shared how blessed she feels to run Lilly's and that energy made the experience even better. Fast service, flavorful food, and unmatched hospitality. I'll absolutely be back.

Let me say I was not my best when visiting Lily's cafe but just what I needed after my wedding…read morenight! Cured the hangover right away with their delicious pho!! The broth was soothing and not overly salty and well balanced! The noodles were perfect and the meat ratio was generous! The bahn mi was also delicious with just the right amount of crunch and softness. The summer roll was also perfect, and again the ratio of filling was generous!! The restaurant got packed fast as this was around lunchtime but there were a fair number of customers getting carry out too! I would highly recommend getting there earlier if you can. Lily herself even came by to check on everybody and greeted everyone despite how busy it was!
