"From the same family behind Ha VL comes Belmont Street’s latest destination restaurant, a place for daily soup offerings and comforting Vietnamese small plates. This is the family’s third restaurant, the second being Rose VL, and the business takes over the former Batterfish space. Head here for hủ tiếu Mỹ Tho, rice noodles in a pork and seafood broth with quail eggs and pork liver, amongst other regional delights." - Janey Wong
"Taking over the former Batterfish space, husband-and-wife restaurant dynamos Christina Luu and William Vuong set up their newest restaurant Annam VL in fall 2023. The couple expand on what made Rose VL and Ha VL successes in the first place: classic Vietnamese soups alongside “unfamiliar regional soups we’ve enjoyed as a family,” according to an Instagram post. Expect two soup specials a day alongside rotating items like bahn mi and bò bía." - Katrina Yentch

"Annam VL, the third location from the Vuong family opened in late 2023, focuses on street food and “unfamiliar regional soups,” expanding the range of rotating, hard-to-predict specials that make their shops beloved." - ByJordan Michelman
"The opening of Annam VL has been a delight, giving me another excellent option for Vietnamese noodle soups from the VL family." - Eater Staff
"I leaned heavily on casual spots in 2023 and counted Annam VL among my go-to places, listed by frequency of visits." - Eater Staff
