This is what they now serve for chicken fingers. 
 Hard and chewy.

Chewy and stringy chicken finger, chewy chicken in the General Tso's. I purchased on a Tuesday, They are closed Monday, so this was leftovers? The fingers were not freshly made, hard as ****! Are all appetizers pre-made now/ store bought Been eating here since about 1994 when the older guy with the sense of humor was there. Then a Husband and wife took over and the kids ran the register and took orders, the food was outstanding. They had a rice cooker with the fresh rice on the counter, Seems the kids now cook and were too busy taking the orders to learn food quality. They won't be in business much longer serving this swill! Was once a decent place.

If I could give it no stars then I would. First time I ordered, food was great! This is the second time and I'm so disgusted. Ordered the same thing as the first time; shrimp broccoli and white rice. Only to get fake broccoli and artificial shrimp. What broccoli have you ever had with a white center? Specially not one that looked stuffed like candy. White rice tastes like plastic. I cannot believe this place is still a running business. Shrimp didn't even taste like shrimp. Do not let the color fool you.

I got one of the veggie spicy ramens and the flavor was great! The ramen comes with lotus root, corn, greens and mushroom (and maybe more but it's been a while since I went so I can no longer remember)

My friend and I also ordered the takoyaki ($9) and bacon-age (forgot the price). The takoyaki and bacon-age, as appetizers, arrived first. The takoyaki had 4 pieces with generous amounts of octopus inside. The batter was fluffy and just a bit gooey inside and hot enough to burn the roof of your mouth (as it should be). It had the customary bonito and sauces. The bacon-age was essentially extra thin pork belly (like the ones you see at Korean BBQ), fried and served with a wasabi dip. This dish proved a bit too oily; the dip could only somewhat ameliorate. The ramen had decent thin noodles with a nice bite. The eggs arrived textbook- jammy yolk and marinade staining the whites. The broth itself, like many tonkotsu broths in America, lacked richness and sufficient flavor. I ordered mine medium spicy. It added flavor, but not much heat.

Pleasantly surprised by this small noodle house. It is definitely a hidden gem!…read more Food: I ordered a miso ramen and it was delicious. I love the meat that came with the dish. I don't usually like the fatty chashu ramens come with, so this was perfect for me. Very lean yet tender. Spring onions were slightly blanched - so not awfully "spicy". The other toppings were fantastic too! The soup base was tasty. Noodles were were very thin and can tell they were hand made. Service: absolutely amazing! I order my food early but couldn't pick up until 20 minutes later. When I walked in, I told the owner I wanted to pay now but pick up in 20 mins. He hesitated and I apologized for the inconvenience. He said it's not a problem at all, he was thinking the noodles would be soggy so it wouldn't be the best taste. So he said he can wait until I come back to prepare it in a minute for me to pickup. This type of service is incredible! I came back 20 min and he went to prepare my noodles right away. To show my appreciation, I ate it in the car ride home (I was passenger). It was so good!! Ambiance: small cozy place! I love all of the posters of different Japanese movies and shows. This will be my new go to ramen place in Malden!

The prices are higher and the portions are smaller compared to other Vietnamese restaurants, but the food was overall good. The beef that came with the vermicelli was awesome and delicious with a nice grilled taste and char. The broth of their pho is delicious and I finished every drop. The service was average. The ambiance was modern and they have a bar area. Parking is free at the garage for 3 hours or you can pay for meter parking.

Most of the Vietnamese restaurants in the Boston/Greater Boston area are typically older. But now the question is, is the food actually worth the higher price tag? I would say yes! Service is on the slow side but food was surprisingly quite all right. These are the dishes we ordered today: - cha gio/fried egg rolls - Banh khot/ crispy shrimp cakes - limeade (x2) - pho tai bo vien / pho with eye round steak + meatballs - grilled beef rice plate - an order of nem nuong on the side Thoughts: Food took a minute to arrive to our table. I'd say it was roughly 20ish minutes. It seemed like their cha gio/fried eggrolls were freshly made to order? They were not greasy and stale like they normally are when ordered at a restaurant (premade). I really liked the egg rolls from here, though it had more wood sear mushroom + vermicelli noodles in it rather than meat for filling. It came with lots of veggies, which I appreciate! Banh khot/crispy shrimp cakes were fire! This dish isn't readily available at most other restaurants so we definitely had to get them to try. They used whole shrimp and I thought that the portion size was great. Normally they are much smaller & use smaller shrimp (at least the ones I've tried at other spots). Great flavor & tasted delish. ***We ended up asking for some fish sauce with peppers, we felt like the nuoc mam they gave us was missing something. Fish sauce w/ peppers was much better! Highly recommend asking for this. *** Limeade: For me, it tasted like lemonade. Sweeter than usual. Not the best. The pho tai bo vien was not bad. The broth is on the lighter side. I was expecting the eye round steak to be the thin, round cut of beef but they actually gave thicker cuts of beef. I enjoyed it & dipped with a mixture of hoisin + sriracha. The grilled beef rice plate was great. Our server suggested to get the beef over the pork rice plate, which we were skeptical at first. From our experience, we avoid ordering grilled beef because it is always made too dry so pork is often the better option. The grilled beef was not dry here & we gave it a thumbs up. Overall, we enjoyed our meal at An Nam. The restaurant is super clean, aesthetically pleasing interior, and fresh + delicious food. Can't ask for more honestly. Would like to see the service improve & it'd be nice if the food could be made a bit quicker but we were pleased with the quality overall... so can't complain haha.
