Anchi A La Carte

Best place to try amazing Vietnamese food. If you are looking for clean, warm place with great food and amazing service this place is a perfect spot. Prices are good also and definitely this place deserves 5 star rating for quality of food , atmosphere and plenty of parking spots.

This is a relatively new Vietnamese restaurant in the northtowns and it's located right next to Tea Leaf Cafe. Their menu is relatively small but the flavors are great. I have tried their Special Pho, Chicken Pho, Lemongrass Beef Noodles and Spring Rolls. My favorite would have to be their Special Pho. The broth is very flavorful and I didn't need to add any other sauces to the soup, the meat is tender and you have an option to add more meat for an extra $3 if you would like. I definitely recommend trying this restaurant and I am so glad there is now a decent Pho spot close to me.

I had meal there and it was so delicious that I want to come back for another meal. My husband loves bánh mì (vietnamese sandwich) and I love the vermicelli bowl so much. Strongly recommend for authentic Vietnamese food.

I have visited this place quite a few times and the experience is always great. Service is superb and foods are always delicious and fresh. The Bun Bo Hue (Spicy lemongrass beef noodle soup) is perhaps one of the best in Buffalo that I’ve tasted so far. Don’t get deceived by the bowls/dishes because they’re sure big potions. The crispy pork here is another highlight that you should try. The skin is very crispy and they have a good ratio between meat and fat, not just a slab of fat like you would find at the other Chinese places. The inside vibe is also very different from the look outside. It’s clean, bright, and modern. Before this store, I’ve known Anchi through their dessert expertise with all kinds of snacks and bakeries that you can’t easily get in the Buffalo area. They have a website that offers delivery as well, and you can also book your themed birthday/party fruit cakes that are light and healthy. If you’re Vietnamese, then you would probably know the salted egg sponge cake, pork floss bread roll, and the garlic cheese bread that have been the Asian snack hype for the past few years (although the pork floss roll is more of a childhood delicacy). I’m happy that they now have a nearby store so I can visit whenever I want now. This will definitely be a regular place for me from now on.

Newly opened restaurant near AMC.
I'm not sure if this is an authentic style pho, but it wasn't my taste. The soup was sweet and salty, and tasted like Americanized style pho.
HOWEVER,, staffs were friendly and service was great. Also the ingredients were fresh and good.
Those who like American style pho can definitely try out this restaurant!
