House of An is a portfolio of restaurants and a catering company all featuring the Euro-Asian fusion cuisine of Master Chef Helene "Mama" An. The company is run by the close-knit members of the An family, which includes Helene's five daughters and now, a new generation of their offspring.

When Crustacean San Francisco opened, in 1991, the San Francisco Chronicle newspaper called it the first Asian fusion restaurant, and dubbed Helene An the "Mother of Fusion." In 1997, Helene's daughter Elizabeth An took the idea upscale by opening Crustacean Restaurant in Beverly Hills, which quickly attracted raves reviews in national press and a sizable celebrity clientele. An Catering started up in 2007, lauded as “Star Caterer to the Stars,†and bringing the famous House of An tastes and style to events large and small. In 2009, House of An opened AnQi, a gourmet bistro inside South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa.
