I would never have known about the second Anchi A La Carte location, if it weren't for the Yelp ad…read more The original restaurant offered truly delicious food, so we decided to check out the new one, expecting the same menu, vibe and quality. I'd start with the atmosphere and overall first impression. The interior isn't as bright and inviting as the one on Maple Road. It's still the Water Lily Cafe, just under a different banner. This place needs to be refreshed. Another downside is that the complimentary dumplings advertised on Yelp are only for those who leave a five-star review. Really?! :) In my opinion, this fact takes one star away instantly. So we already got The Bad and The Ugly ;). The Good was the most important, the food. We really enjoyed our dishes. My partner's 'Spice Lemongrass Beef Noodle Soup' was very tasty. It wasn't heavy on lemongrass, and overly spicy, as promised. It was full of various cuts of beef, a slice of Vietnamese pork, and a good amount of thick rice noodles. The soup is served with the same garnish as for pho soup. My 'Grilled Shrimp Vermicelli Bowl' was beautifully served. All the veggies were crispy, fresh, and the noodles were nicely warm. With the splash of fish sauce everything tasted so delicious. I asked for a side of the peanut sauce and it was even tastier (thanks Jennifer). Only the shrimp could be of better quality and really, nicely grilled. I'm glad Anchi A La Carte is available in this part of town. It's a perfect place for a good meal before or after shopping, errands etc. in the area.

We went after six so finding parking was not an issue. The location is cute and very Instagram-able. We were greeted and seated immediately upon entry and decided on the patio which has ample space to spread out and enjoy. Our waiter was nice and friendly. Once he took our order and brought our food, he all but vanished. No check to see if our food/beverages were okay or if we needed anything...I asked the other waitress for a straw and she brought it with no napkin but just her bare hand! It was a paper straw so I just raw dogged it. Oh well, I was using the cutlery‍. The food...the menu said smash burger...I got a standard burger with barely a handful of fries. IF I AM PAYING TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS FOR A CHEESEBURGER I WANT FRESH BEEF AND A TON OF FRIES! I absolutely ate all of the food because I refused to waste my money on mediocrity. My beer flight was decent. We wanted to settle the bill but of course my waiter was no where to be found so we had to go inside to the bar to find him. Here's where it became uncomfortable for me, the tip. I really felt his service was nonexistent and wanted to tip him just $5 but the fact he was RIGHT in my face with the POS system it was weird.

I'd been wanting to eat there for quite a while, but I don't get out that way very often. I was rewarded for choosing the Tonawanda DMV over downtown. The food I had was very good, beautifully presented. The manager was friendly and helpful. I will most definitely eat here again. There were two other tables occupied during my visit, but several people came in and ordered take out, and some were picking up online orders. One of the booths had a young couple, unseen until my way out. The sides of the booths are quite high, affording privacy, yet open on top for an airy atmosphere. In addition to central tables, there are tables opposite the booths. And a single large table with chairs near the counter, where people who come in and order to-go can wait. The wait is not long. From my ordering to being served was maybe 12 to 15 minutes. The menu is varied and extensive enough, which struck me as a pleasant relief from the often overwhelming pages and pages of Chinese restaurant menus. I think C Bao and Dumplings has all of what anyone might be craving, including Pad Thai. Clean, bright, airy, relaxing place to dine for lunch or supper. Enjoy!

We came here because they offer chickens feet, my absolute favorite dim sum dish. They weren't great, but just having them was a win. The crab rangoon, calamari, and pan fried dumplings were all okay. I do think there are better in the same area. The place is very clean and the atmosphere is very laid back. Service is done by a robot that brings you your food. Very fun and cool. Prices are pretty fair.

It complimented the silky tofu over rice very well.

It's the same little hole in the wall. The service is the same vibe, but there is a new colorful menu and wallpaper and the prices have skyrocketed! Honestly, what used to make this place remarkable was the great food, and really fair prices. You could eat here often and feel good about it. The portions were fair too. Everything feels the same but now it hurts. Everything is essentially $5-7+ dollars more than it always used to be. Still, worth an occasional visit, but I'd frequent more often and spend more money and bring more people with me if prices weren't so extreme.

And that's coming from a guy who doesn't like fish. My only complaint is that they were slow to make our food. I get it's busy, but how are the other tables that came after us getting their food first? They have their table full with multiple dishes but I have yet to get one dish. The interior is simple, with lots of photos of the dishes and their names on the walls, which helps with ordering. Some things to note are that you'll get a small portion of fried peanuts and kimchi while you wait, you'll also be served free unlimited tea, and that the rice doesn't come with the entrees and are extra. They also offer a 10 or 15% discount if you pay in cash.

And it was the good kind of california rolls...not the fake crab stick...the salad style (see my pic). The decor is quirky and kind of a no frills type place. Nothing fancy or high end by any stretch. Quite a few tables occupied, and lots of takeout orders. Seems the word is out that they have delicious food. I do recommend if you want your sushi fix.
