AnQi Shaken And Stirred

The pandemic delayed the opening of this select Vietnamese eatery, which is the sister restaurant of SF’s Crustacean and Thanh Long. The opening finally happened this year, and of course the signature garlic noodles, which many credit Thanh Long for inventing, are a key item here, too. While the famous crab is only an occasional offering at AnQi, there’s still a mouthwatering selection of royal tiger prawns, king crab legs, sea bass, and shaken beef. The restaurant is semi-hidden inside the Bloomingdale’s at Westfield Valley Fair Mall (fancy on fancy!), so it doesn’t always get as crowded as the more visible eateries.
How to order: Make reservations online.
