Our Mission
At Anchovies & Salt, our mission is to elevate the Vietnamese dining experience by crafting nostalgia-driven dishes that bring back the most memorable flavors of Vietnam. We are committed to using high-quality, fresh local ingredients to recreate the authentic tastes that transport our guests to the heart of Vietnam.
Our Motto: Less is More
We believe that great food doesn't need to come in overwhelming quantities. Our motto, "Less is More", reflects our dedication to curating smaller, artfully plated portions that allow you to savor more of the diverse and colorful tastes of Vietnam. By adopting this approach, we want to address a common pain point among diners who love to explore a multitude of flavors within a single dining experience without sacrificing the essence of each dish, which is impossible with the regular large portions. Our concept not only satisfies this desire but also ensures that every dish maintains its authenticity, flavor, and essence.
Quality, Flavor, and Presentation
Our commitment to quality is unwavering. With the use of upscale, high-quality, and fresh local ingredients, we are able to bring the tastes of every dish to new heights while maintaining the authentic flavors of Vietnam. We deeply respect tradition and meticulously recreate the nostalgic recipes that have become the heart and soul of Vietnam's culinary heritage.
Presentation is an integral part of our culinary journey. Our chefs take great pride in transforming each dish into a visual masterpiece. With careful attention to detail, every plate becomes a work of art, inviting you to feast with your eyes before you even take the first bite. At Anchovies & Salt, we believe that presentation enhances the overall dining experience, adding an extra layer of sensory delight to each carefully crafted dish.
Intimate Dining Experience
Anchovies & Salt offers an unparalleled dining experience that reflects the grandeur of our spacious venue. Beside our open space, there are five private rooms for intimate gatherings, each impeccably designed to represent the five iconic landmarks of Vietnam: Hanoi, Hoi An, Sa Pa, Ha Long Bay, and Hue.
