Anh Hong Restaurant

If I could leave a -5 star I would. This place was absolutely unprofessional. We called earlier in the week to have dinner here for Mother’s Day and were told that they took reservations. Hearing that, we informed them that we would like to come in at 7p and gave our name and phone number. The day of, we arrived a bit early and found utter chaos. There was no one to talk to and when we finally found someone, they told us to wait 10-15 minutes and we would be seated asap. Didn’t ask for name or number or anything. I was totally suspicious. We proceeded to wait over an hour before we were finally seated and were still provided with the worse service ever. Using our table as prep for them to put down the butcher papers to line other guests tables. This also happened to a neighboring table. I understand that Mother’s Day is extremely busy but as a long standing business I would have expected that this restaurant would understand that this type of serve is absolutely unacceptable. It would be better to be completely honest with us and tell us that they would not be able to take our reservation and their restaurant operates on a first come first served sort of system with a waiting list. None of this was communicated at all. This place has terrible customer service and we will NEVER step foot back in here

Anh Hong Restaurant’s fried fish was a standout dish during our visit. The crispy, golden-brown exterior had the perfect crunch, while the inside remained tender and flavorful. The seasoning was well-balanced, enhancing the natural taste of the fish without overpowering it. The accompanying dipping sauces added a nice touch, complementing the dish with a mix of tangy and savory flavors. While the presentation was simple, the quality of the fish made up for it. If you’re looking for a satisfying seafood option, Anh Hong’s fried fish is definitely worth trying!

Reset your expectations about "lunch specials" with Anh Hong. They are dinner-worthy tasty plates here! And this place doesn't charge an arm and leg for the beautiful environment. The first impression I got after chancing into the otherwise nondescript storefront was: What nice decorations! They could update lighting a little, but the paintings on walls are true beauties. Better yet, I didn't get sticker shock when I open the menu. Actually, I was shocked at how low the lunch specials were - they have a full page of them. We had an order of charbroiled minced shrimp on sugarcane and one of shredded pork, crab pate and grilled pork, then we added two grilled quills. (Regular dishes are not exhobinantly expensive like in some highly decorated restaurants, either.) The entire bill is less than one dish at an upscale restaurant. But price can be deceiving. Unlike "lunch specials" in many places, these dishes are expertly prepared and beautifully presented on nice porcelain pieces. The crab pate and shrimp on sugarcane were actually exotic surprises. To our delight, they were also generous in green leaves. Even better, we found a herb in the mix that I only got once in this area in 25 years. It was our favorite hometown treat that I didn't know being used in Vietnamese. (Inspired, we immediately went to Lion City next door and finally found it on the shelf.) Their furniture is simple, but seating is spacious and comfortable. There were plenty of guests but the noise level is low. The next time you go to Anh Hong - we will, don't be afraid to order from the specials section.

Food was fine but service took forever. My group must have waited 30+ minutes for a waiter to take our orders. Half the water was delivered and we had to ask for the other half. Food took 1hr+ to come out and it came out in batches. Three orders took forever to come out to the point where the other people in my group finished eating already. One of the three orders wasn't made and they had to wait even longer.

The food is okay and is a bit sweet for my taste. Service is good. The place is clean and neat.
