Oh my gosh where to start. We were visiting NC for the birth of our granddaughter on 1/13/2025. This was the day before at the downtown location. We were greeted promptly and shown to our table. We ordered the potstickers to begin which arrived promptly and were so delicious. We each ordered. I had a bahn mi (chicken), daughter pork bahn mi, her husband had the Pho special combo beef and my husband had the bun salad noodle bowl. This is one of the best Vietnamese Restaurants we have been to in ages. The restaurant is clean, service was amazing and ambience 4 stars. Located in downtown Raleigh with easy parking on the street. Absolutely go with confidence

I ordered takeout from here and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The pho is delicious and so worth trying. The Customer service was fantastic, as they were extremely fast but pleasant. A new go to spot for me.

This pho spot in the middle of downtown was an amazing option for a cold night in the city. The vibes are great, and the service was top notch. I LOVED the bubble tea smoothies which are always fun and freshly made. I had the traditional pho beef soup and it was hot and tasty and a very generous portion. Can't wait to go back!

Anise Pho is a wonderful restaurant in downtown Raleigh. They have vegan friendly pho, which is packed with veggies and loads of tofu. It's so rare to find vegan tofu and it tasted amazing. I also tried the mango bubble tea smoothie which was delicious as well. Overall this is a great restaurant definitely worth visiting if you're in the area.

We are pho lovers in our house. My husband and I went out for lunch and found this place. It had great reviews. It's a cute little restaurant in a cute area of town. They played good music, turned tables quickly. The broth is always a sure indication that the cook knows what they are doing. It was amazing. I was full and still wanted to drink every last bit of the bowl. We had the pork spring rolls as well. I got the rare beef pho. So good. You must try it out.

came here after receiving a ton of recommendations from friends to try it. i got the beef bao buns which is not something i have had before. i honestly didn't think they were that great. it was mostly bun and dry. the pho was pretty good! could have had more chicken but i liked the amount of vegetables

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.

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.
