Nom Wah

Beyond the historic Doyers Street location, the brand extends to outposts in NoLiTa and Pier 57. Across the locations, the focus is on unpretentious, quick-service dining. The menu centers on straightforward comfort plates, ranging from scallion pancakes and bok choy to shrimp and pork dumplings and sloppy Joe noodles. The spaces can be compact, sometimes offering just a few two-seaters near the register alongside a couple of larger tables in the back. It works equally well for a quick solo meal or as a casual spot to share plates and beers with a small group.
