An Chi — Restaurant in San Francisco

We had not been back to this place for several years, even though we live nearby. At that time, the food was okay.

Today, we decided to try them again. We came here to eat lunch.

My wife ordered pho ga and I had the Bun Bo Hue. We also ordered cha gio as an appetizer.

Our order was taken by a older lady who may have been the proprietress. She was very nice and attentive.

Our food came out promptly and hot. The cha gio has crispy rice paper skin, the bun Bo hue had alot of flavor.

The service was great throughout the meal.

We will be returning regularly as we hoped this is a turnaround for An Chi.

Pho with 5 spice chicken was good. It came with a large nicely seasoned chicken leg-thigh that was cut roughly into 3 pieces. The chicken broth was on the salty/msg side, maybe because it includes fried shallots which did add a lot of flavor. It comes with slightly wider rice noodles which I did prefer over the usual thin beef rice noodles.

Prices are reasonable. Space is casual and not too busy if dining in on a Saturday night. They offer complimentary hot tea as an option in addition to water which was nice on...

The owners of An Chi on Mission & Persia opened a 2nd restaurant in the Richmond, and it's more convenient for me because I have family nearby! It has a similar, familiar, not overwhelming menu of noodle soups, cold vermicelli and sandwiches. There are some specialties only available at this 2nd location. The staff is quick, friendly and responsive. The dining room is not cluttered with too many tables placed too close together. My son loves the bun rieu. My wife loves the curry seafood...
