It is located in a small strip center right next to a major apartment complex. I was pet sitting in the apartments so I would stop by after a shift to get some acai. Let me tell you, these acai bowls are amazing. Many times açaí bowls are made in what I would call smoothie fashion - very runny, like someone just put a smoothie in a bowl and called it a day. But this açaí was creamy and tart, like a sherbet, and they were very generous with toppings. They use natural sugars (honey, etc) so it still felt light even though there was a ton of fiber and filling toppings. I miss Liv's! Hopefully I can visit again if I'm in the area.

You order at the register then can sit anywhere and they bring the food to you. There was plenty of seating and the place was kept clean. Nice natural lighting as well. Street parking can be found along the road, there is also a paid parking lot right across the restaurant. There was another empty lot but wasn't sure what for so we didn't risk it.

The prices are higher and the portions are smaller compared to other Vietnamese restaurants, but the food was overall good.

An Nam is one of the cleanest, most modern looking Vietnamese restaurant I have ever visited, to…read moredate. 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.

I recently visited this location and my chipotle lime bowl was 90% lettuce, 7% corn and just a few strips of tortilla chips and a few pieces of black beans. Oh, and one slice of avocado. I understand the cost of ingredients has gone up but this is not a fast food location of a chipotle - so it's not expected to see them cutting back on all the essentials that make these bowls more premium and healthy and nutritious.
