Anh Hong Boston

Food and portions were good. The restaurant itself has a family feel vibe. The service was good. Staff and friendly and accommodating. Portions are well dealt out, so you will go home feeling full and well nourished. If you're looking for a good meal stop by Ánh Hông for a bite!

You can't go wrong with Vietnamese food in Dorchester. With so many restaurants to choose from it's really hard to try them all if you aren't from the area and distinguish which is the best. What's great about Anh Hong is that they have a pretty extensive menu. They offer the typical pho, vermicelli bowls, and rice plates that you can find at most Vietnamese restaurants but they also offer a lot more. I like restaurants you can go to if you are in the mood for food that is reminiscent of a home-cooked meal especially since my mom's cooking is 1800 miles away. You can come here for a simple meal and get a bowl of noodle soup, a fun meal and try the 7 courses of beef AKA bo 7 mon, or a comfort meal with canh chua (sour soup) and ca kho to (caramelized fish). Good food at cheap/reasonable prices easily win me over. The food here is pretty good and affordable. The muc rang muoi (salted fried squid) was tasty and definitely had a kick. I appreciate the amped up spice from all the jalapeno peppers. While it isn't my favorite, it does the job of satisfying my salty fried squid cravings. I got the banh hoi, dau hu ky, chao tom (steamed vermicelli, fried shrimp paste wrapped in tofu skin, grilled shrimp paste) to make my own spring rolls. It came with a bowl of hot water, rice paper, and a mixture of fresh and pickled vegetables. The chao tom was delicious and had a nice flavor but the dau hu ky kind of fell flat because there wasn't much shrimp paste inside nor was it tender or juicy inside. Nevertheless I was able to make about 4-5 solid spring rolls.
