Signage alert: Ngon Vietnamese Kitchen NYC on 2nd Avenue

Ngon Vietnamese Kitchen NYC continues to take shape on the SW corner of Second Avenue and Fifth Street.

This is a sibling to Ngon Vietnamese Kitchen in Dallas, which has earned two Michelin Bib Gourmands for serving Vietnamese food rooted in Hanoi. (You can check out the Dallas menu here.) 

You can follow Ngon Vietnamese Kitchen NYC on Instagram for updates on openings. 

This two-level corner space with the flowering vines was most recently home to Viva Cucina and, before that, Nai Tapas Bar.

Thank you to EVG readers Danielle, Garth and Steven for sending along tips about this!
