Dumbo Vietnamese Restaurant Serving Tapas Style Small Plates
Share tapas style plates at a Dumbo Vietnamese restaurant a short walk from Brooklyn Bridge Park, pho and banh mi included.
🍜 Tapas Style Vietnamese Plates
The chef shaped this Dumbo Vietnamese restaurant around sharing rather than single bowls. Em Vietnamese Bistro sits a short walk from Brooklyn Bridge Park, where chef Ly Nguyen built the menu after three years researching dishes in Vietnam, returning to study regional cooking at the source. Plates arrive tapas style, and a table can spread across several of them before anyone commits to one bowl.
The comfort classics still anchor the order. Pho, banh mi, and noodle dishes sit beside the dinner plates, with smoothies and iced coffee keeping the pace easy. The room leans modern and cozy, a calm setting for a long lunch or a shared dinner.
Plan around the calendar. Breakfast runs Friday through Sunday from half past eight to half past eleven in the morning, and lunch runs from noon to 4 PM. Dinner picks up at half past five most evenings, or 5 PM on Friday and Saturday with a 9 PM last seating. The dining room stays closed every Tuesday for the full day.
