Book a table and reimagine an even better world with us.

In December of 2020, Anh and Chi launched Reservation by Donation, the very first program of its kind in Vancouver. Through Reservation by Donation, guests have the option to reserve a table by donating $10 per person to a charity of their choice. Each quarter, the Anh and Chi team shortlists 3-4 community-nominated charities to support BIPOC communities, young people living with mental illness, homelessness, drug use, or food scarcity; seniors living with dignity; and/or refugees and immigrants seeking food and shelter. 

Every dollar you donate goes directly to the charity of your choice. Anh and Chi covers all administrative, transaction, and staffing costs required to facilitate this program. 

To reserve a table, please book online and choose a date, time, and donate $10 per person to one or more of the shortlisted charities. Please note there are NO refunds. Only a small portion of our seating is available for reservations, the rest is reserved for walk-in dining guests. 

Reservations are optional, walk-in guests are welcomed and encouraged. Same day reservations cannot be accommodated.

Please note: An auto gratuity of 20% for parties of 6 or more, and parties of 8 or more will be subject to one bill.

A NOTE FROM THE ACCOUNTANT:

Anh and Chi recognizes the reservation fees when it collects the funds and reports it on the T2 corporation tax return. The restaurant then donates the received amounts from the reservation fee to your selected charities in full. Only when the donation is made out to the charity is the donation expense claimed. As all of the monies are donated to charity, this arrangement results in no financial/tax gain for the company, net zero. This arrangement is very similar to retailers selling a product in which the monies from the sale of the product are donated to a charity. Donation receipts are issued by the registered charities in which the donations are made out to. Therefore our customers are not given donation receipts as the registered charities can only issue these receipts to the donor that they receive the funds directly from. You can choose to donate to one of the select charities and show proof of donation to book a table with Anh and Chi.
