Anise Pho - Raleigh

Their Summer Rolls are very tasty, but a little on the small side. I had the Chicken Pho and the broth was FANTASTIC. Not oily or greasy like other Pho I've had around town, and the flavors were wonderful you can really taste all of the spices. Generousportion of noodles and meat too. Edit: Totally forgot to include how lovely and light their teas are. Perfect amount ofsweetness in my strawberry bubble tea, and the boba was delicate, springy and fluffy <3

Consistently the best pho in Raleigh, I get the chicken veggie combo pho and it is DELICIOUS! I also get the summer rolls every time and their peanut sauce is out of this world

Truthfully more attention can be paid to cleaning. The exhaust fan in the bathroom is begging for attention. Additional supplies near the restroom could be better organized and or creatively hidden. With all that being said, the food is FLAVORFUL!Everything we ordered was respectfully seasoned. I knew my husband agreed when he paused eating to turn his Hat backwards beforecontinuing. Yiu know food is good when you are willing to overlook dirt. We will happily return.

Anise Pho is small restaurant. It's popular for Vietnamese food. They do have outside sitting arrangement too. Thay had few vegetarian options rest they substitute with tofu. In my dish they added the fried tofu which was very chuvy. Upon request, theychange it with less fried tofu. Unfortunately, the replaced tofu had so much fish smell and viered taste that I left it withouteating one piece. The starter was terrible.The thai tea was OK. The other dishes like sandwiches, cilantro/lemon soup etc. Wereok too.

I have visited many pho places in the triangle and I think this is my least favorite one. The pho was pretty bland, not very flavorful but at least they are pretty fast when delivering your food and the food looks nice visually (but they gave me themint leaves and jalapeños separately so I placed those myself). Also, if you are coming to this place for boba, do not. Theboba/bubble pearls were very hard and tough- unlike how actual boba is supposed to be -and there was more ice than the actualdrink.
