    Anchovies & Salt advertises itself as the largest Vietnamese restaurant outside Vietnam, and the size and beautiful design certainly make an impression. The waterfront location on Lake Washington is gorgeous, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. If you dine inside, your food may even be delivered by one of the restaurant’s waiter robots. The three of us shared the $138 Combo for 3, or Cơm Gia Đình 3 Người. Our meal included the pho-spiced short rib, sweet-and-sour pork ribs, clay-pot black cod, white rice, and soup of the day. We also ordered the bánh bèo rice cakes, Southern egg rolls, and Mac Khen Wagyu beef skewers. The unanimous decision at our table was that the black cod was the best dish of the meal. We sat outside, where the service was adequate, but the beautiful waterfront views added a lot to the experience. The drinks were average and not particularly memorable. Overall, the impressive setting, atmosphere, and extensive menu make Anchovies & Salt worth visiting. I would definitely return because there are several other dishes I would still like to try.

    We had a wonderful dining experience at Anchovies & Salt. The restaurant is in a beautiful waterfront location, and the peaceful view makes it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal with family or friends. The atmosphere was quiet, comfortable, and welcoming, which allowed us to enjoy our conversation without feeling rushed. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish had a great balance of seasonings, and we could tell that a lot of care went into the preparation. The staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout our visit. They checked on us regularly while still giving us enough space to enjoy our meal. The combination of delicious food, excellent service, and the calm waterfront setting made our visit truly special. It is a great place for a relaxed lunch, dinner with friends, or a special occasion.

    Service: The bad experience began the moment we entered the restaurant. There was no staff at the counter and when someone finally came to “check in”, we had to wait again to be seated when the place was rather empty. When we were brought to our table, we were given a tablet to order the food. Now, the waiter was speaking so fast that we could barely understand what he was saying. He was definitely rushing it through and didn’t care about how it was received. My food was brought out 20 minutes before my husband’s order. And during the entire time, no one came to check on us. We saw people who came later receiving their orders. Also what’s up with the attitude of the two Asian servers? Food: I have to say this is the worst Vietnamese food I have ever had. We love and eat Vietnamese food all the time. This restaurant honestly is the worst. I ordered Bun Bo Hue and the moment I saw the food, I knew it was going to be bad. First, they used the thin rice vermicelli rather than thicker rice noodles typically used in BBH. This tells you alot about how they “care” about the standard of the food. I get that the owners want to standardize the ingredients so that it’s more “efficient” but this also means compromising the food quality. Second, BBH is typically served with sate, and this place offers just some chopped Thai chilis. No sate or any form of chili was available. For a Vietnamese restaurant, this is a major fail. Third, it was obvious that they had just added a pathetic bit of shrimp paste on clear (salty and tasteless) broth. It was just a layer of red on the soup. Trust me, BBH is my favourite Vietnamese food and I have been on a hunt for the best BBH in different countries. This is by far the worst. Hygiene: The bathroom is horribly dirty and I saw a large spider web at the table next to ours. Conclusion: for a place that “aims” to bring the taste of Vietnam, you have clearly not established that. The owners clearly care more about the superficial aesthetics than the quality of food or service.

    I had several items here, so I'll mainly call out the main items I liked, which were the Wagyu Beef Pho and the Pho-Spiced Short Ribs. The pho was maybe my second favorite item here, as it has a very distinct broth to it. Like, it was very lightly sweet, but still quite savory, and tasted a bit different from usual pho broth. Maybe they used different ingredients, since they're allowed to some usage of pork in the broth (which is atypical for pho). The beef that came with it was also very good quality. My only slight dislike was that the noodle texture was a little off to me; I usually expect noodles in pho to be quite soft and straight, but here, the noodles weren't really so. Maybe minor, since the broth and beef were very good, but the noodles kinda felt the last missing piece for me. For the Short Ribs, Probably my favorite item. It's kinda huge, so just be wary of that. But the meat was incredibly tender, and very well seasoned. I guess it's the pho seasoning that gives it its interesting taste, but I think the pho taste is very minor. It's mainly really good beef, overall. Other than those two items, I think many of the other items seemed good, like the clams and the fried crab rolls (I forgot the exact name). There was a coconut drink that they featured as well, but I felt like it was just okay. In all, I do recommend visiting this place, if you're in the Renton area.

    Was really excited to finally try Anchovies & Salt, but unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. We went after spending a special day together, as one of our friends was wedding dress shopping. Our server was very friendly, and no one on the staff was ever rude, but the service was easily some of the slowest I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant. We ordered all of our dishes at the same time, and about 50 minutes passed before the first dish arrived. Nothing else came out with it. Another 15 minutes later, more dishes started arriving, and eventually everyone received their food except me. At that point, I genuinely felt like my order had been forgotten. The staff did apologize and seemed increasingly stressed about the situation. They told me they honestly weren’t sure how much longer my food would take, and it ended up being another 15 minutes before it arrived. By then, everyone else at the table had already finished eating. They ultimately comped my meal, which I appreciated and felt was appropriate given that it had taken nearly two hours for me to receive it. That said, given how exceptionally slow the service was for our entire table, I honestly expected the restaurant to do more. In my opinion, the experience was disruptive enough that the entire table’s meals should have been comped, not just mine. I’ll be honest—the food itself was good. Unfortunately, good food can’t make up for an experience like that. I really wanted to enjoy this restaurant, but the service was far below what I would expect from a place of this caliber. Sadly, I won’t be returning.
