Di An Di

"Ordering nothing but phở at this breezy Greenpoint spot is like only listening to pre-psychedelics Beatles. You’ll be happy, but oblivious to the fact that it can get even better. That’s why alongside your beef phở with wok-seared brisket, or the lighter version with poached chicken, your order should include a few more things, like crunchy chả giò packed with pork and shrimp. This pastel-colored restaurant has been packed since it opened in 2018, and while you could come here for a cocktail and soup by yourself at the bar, the best way to experience Di An Di is with a few people and a large appetite." - sonal shah, willa moore, will hartman, arden shore, carlo mantuano

"Friday through Sunday, this Greenpoint spot is offering a $70 three-course prix-fixe menu of Vietnamese BBQ dishes, like grilled rice paper with clams and sliced sirloin with lemongrass. The three seatings per night for parties of two can be reserved through their website, or if you’d rather order from their a la carte takeout menu, you can do so any day except Monday, and eat at seat-yourself tables out front Tuesday through Thursday." - matt tervooren

"A longtime Greenpoint spot for Vietnamese fare known for its iconic Bún Bò Huê, a spicy soup with pork hock, Vietnamese sausage roll, springy noodles, and fresh herbs." - Eater Staff

"In addition to their regular to-go menu, Di An Di has a second, secret takeout operation called Di Di. You can check out all their options on Instagram here, and place your order here." - hannah albertine

"What It Is: A casual Vietnamese restaurant in an attractive Greenpoint space Perfect For: Casual Weeknight Dinner, First/Early In The Game Dates When new restaurants open in Greenpoint, you usually don’t encounter too much of a wait. But when we showed up at Di An Di - a new Vietnamese spot - a week after it opened, it was a different story. We waited over an hour, and the good news is it was worth it. We ate grilled pork summer rolls, sesame chicken salad, a Vietnamese “pizza” with a grilled crispy rice paper crust, and one of the best bowls of pho we’ve had in NYC. We’re already trying to figure out when we can go back and eat it again. The Verdict: We haven’t been this excited about a new Vietnamese restaurant since Hanoi House. It’s now on the Hit List." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg, chris stang, matt tervooren
