Anise Pho

It was wonderful, one of the best Pho we ever had. Our server was very friendly and accommodating, tables and set up did not look exactly like the pictures on their website, but it was still very cozy and inviting. Highly recomned.

What happened? This place was always great! I've been coming here for years. Now they put the condiment packs and garnishes in with the meat and noodles. I don't want nasty sauce packets touching my food. Barely any noodles and they removed the bone from the beef short rib. The whole point of the rib is to have a bone to gnaw on. Last time they just packaged it separate. Not worth the $23. The green tea cheesecake was disappointing...it tasted like play doh.

I've now ordered Anise Pho quite a few times for delivery! I will say that every time the food arrives hot and well packaged. My go to is the pho. My husband always goes for the noodle bowl with bbq pork. Both are excellent options! I always want to try other things when I order, but I just gravitate towards those old favorites. Highly recommend as a great delivery option.

I've confirmed that pho isn't something I love but even for me, their food was tasty. They serve generous portions also. A Friday night gets very busy there and there were only two servers but otherwise, a flawless visit.

Craving something lighter, we dropped by Anise Pho for some Vietnamese comfort food. Usually you don't think of Raleigh as a place for Vietnamese food, but Anise pho delivers great value, authentic, and tasty pho and noodle bowls. The pho (especially the soup) was good and heartwarming. The noodle salad bowls had generous amounts of meat and vegetables. They gave enough fish sauce for the noodle salad bowl, and the egg rolls in the combo noodle salad bowl were a great textural complement to the noodle bowl.A solid pho spot!

Atmosphere: Anise Pho, located in downtown Raleigh, has a cozy interior with a decent amount of seating. They also have outdoor seating and open their windows on nicer days, bringing fresh air into their space. Service: The service was friendly and prompt! Food: We ordered a pho with brisket and a special combo beef pho. The broth was quite flavorful, and the beef was tender. The portions of noodles and meat were pretty decent as well! Overall: For its location and price, Anise is a great spot to get pho! It can be hard to find good pho in the area, but Anise was a pleasant surprise and can satisfy your pho cravings.

Delivery review!Ordered dinner one night when we were really craving pho and found Anise Pho! Food was so good, still hot, and arrived quickly. We ordered the Pot Stickers (yummm), the pho (so good and tasty), and threw in the Spicy Lemongrass Salad Noodle Bowl and holy moly that was our favorite. The chicken seasoning with the lemongrass was out of this world.Would love to eat in person here in the future and will definitely be ordering again!

Service here was great & food was very good. Great Pho & other dishes as well. Dumplings (gyoza-type) available in veggie, pork or shrimp which you can get steamed or fried (I'm the one with an 8-yr olds palate). Pho served with fresh lime & basil, broth was very tasty, noodles perfectly done. We went at 4-4:30 on a Friday and was perfect timing (not busy yet). Parking here is hard as it's all on-street so you may have to drive around the block. *download the Passport parking app on the way to save time & pay easier!!

The taste is just what I was expecting for this beef soup. Awesome food, appreciate the chef of Anise Pho.

Let me just start with the ambience, it's a so calming and the music makes you feel like you're the main character in a Studio Ghibli movie! I've come here a handful of times and they just don't miss! I can't remember the exact protein but my friends and I have tried a few and they're all delicious. The bread looks like it may be hard but it's so easy to bite into and doesn't make my jaw hurt after a few bites. The little soup is soul warming and with the fries really completes the meal. If you're looking to try something new I highly recommend this place. Also not pictured but I recommend the Vegetable Rolls, the Pork and Shrimp Shumai and the Potstickers! Ooo and the fresh spring rolls! & the service is very good and straight to the point which is nice when you're trying to enjoy your food and your company!
