Omg! I've been trying to go this place for months but since it's out of my way (reside in Queens)…read moreand it's located in Bushwick, BK, I never had the chance. Until Sunday 9/20/26, I happened to be around the area and was carving some good food so stumbled upon this place. That's when I remembered bookmarking this place on Yelp and I'm so glad I got to try this place with my friends bc every one of them enjoyed their food! I love that it's Asian fusion and learned that owners are Chinese and Bangladeshi. It felt like I was back home! What makes it better is that it has Halal options which def worked to my advantage. Every single item ordered was delicious (my least favorite was the lamb chops as it was a bit dry for my taste). Our host/waiter Kat was amazing and very patient. She answered all of our questions and made great suggestions. The place was a bit noisy but it is NYC after all! I also loved the modern decor; had a nice touch to it. Overall, I would highly recommend this place and I can't wait to return and try other items from the menu.

Today was my first time here. The place is small but nice. Very confusing on where to enter the…read morerestaurant. The staff are friendly and answered several questions and the menu. Now to the food......I ordered the crab fried rice for $24 and I received just rice with crab I could barely find. Waste of money. I also ordered the crispy garlic fried chicken. It was okay. Lightly fried chicken with soy sauce on the plate to dip I guess. I also tried the general Tao's shrimp. It was good but very spicy. I also ordered food to go for my husband. Again with the crab fried rice no crab. FYI when I ordered I told the waitress to make sure they add the crab so I don't just pay for rice. For a pint it was $17 just for rice. I packed up the chicken for him because I didn't love it and he wanted to try it. My daughter ordered the crab fried rice which had a very very very small piece of shredded crab. She liked the ribs and her general Tao's shrimp because she likes spicy. They charge for sauce but she did not tell me until I saw it on the bill. 20% gratuity and a fee for credit card use. And on the bill they have the nerve to put suggested additional tip. I don't think so. Overall this was a restaurant that I tried but would definitely not return.

The Chacha Noodles with Fried Pork Belly.came out steaming hot from the kitchen. Bouncy noodles paired with crisp veggies balanced well together. The pork was crisp as well, though some pieces were a bit overdone. I do wish the pieces were sliced a bit bigger... maybe would help it not be overdone. They give a good amount though. I love the hot sauce. The Butterfly Pea Lemonade was a little on the sweet side for me, but had a good amount of sourness to balance most of it out. A decent Thai spot in the area.

I'm still not fully decided on this place. I came here a month ago with some girlfriends after…read moreshopping and while the food was delicious to a degree, there was a lingering smell of cat piss that just would not dissipate no matter how long we sat there. The window seat was cute, but it was hotter indoors than it was outside, which was a little crazy, we were literally rolling beads of sweat while eating and not from the spice. We got a few appetizers and some main courses. I have the pad see ew and vegetable dumplings which both were lovely. You're not coming here for the service honestly, as there was close to none, I must've called the server at least a dozen times and he was in his phone chilling. I don't know if I'll be back, maybe in the winter. It was just a strange experience on the whole, even with the food being good... yah who knows if I'll be back!

So excited to see them open again!! I've been going to Driftwood since last year and the food…read morealways blows me away. It's my favorite place to bring people to share an amazing meal and they always love it too. Mimi is always super friendly and kind and the space is very inviting! Our favorite things we have to get is the BLT fried rice and the rice noodle rolls. We tried some of their new menu items since reopening and we definitely have some new staples to add. The crispy octopus was so tender and flavorful, you can taste the love in it. Usually not one to order deserts but we got to try their mango sticky r-ice cream and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. I felt like I was eating my SEA childhood as an ice cream. 10/10 please stop by if you live in NYC or visiting!! You won't be disappointed.

I was fortunate to have had the chance to go to a Yelp Elite Event at Driftwood about a month ago…read more I've been dreaming about their Rice Noodle Rolls ever since! Thanks to fellow Yelp Elites Chun and Jeannie for organizing this group dinner so we could return to Driftwood! There were 8 of us dining tonight; sharing many dishes. We literally ordered everything on the menu (except two dishes), including their 3 desserts! What a delicious feast! Our Feast Tonight (14 Snacks/Entrees & 3 Desserts): -- Milk Bread $10 -- Endive Salad $13 -- Mala Tots $10 -- Salmon Seaweed Crisps $16 -- Golden Crab Bao 2/$17 -- Charcoal seared scallops $17 -- Stir-Fry Peashoots $13 -- Chicken Mochi Waffles $15 -- Rice Noodle Rolls $18 -- BLT Fried Rice $22 -- Roasted Bone Marrow w.Toast $18 -- Pork Belly Wraps $18 -- Pork Ribs w.Sweet Potatoes $16 -- Fresno Gouda Cornbread $9 Desserts: -- Persimmon Cake Roll $11 -- Asian Pear Sorbet $12 -- Milk Tea Pudding (Earl Grey) $8. The 2 menu items we DIDN'T order (only because it was just too much food for us): -- Driftwood Burger $20 -- Driftwood Seafood Boil $48 (although we didn't order the Boil this time, I had it in the past and this seafood boil was delicious!). Each dish was better than the next. I've gone to my fair share of group dining events but these dishes were on another level. Fresh ingredients, innovative food combinations & flavors, each dish completely different from the next. I was going to list all my fave dishes but I realized that every dish would fit into that category! You can't go wrong with whatever you decide to order. Do yourself a favor: grab some friends, and try all their dishes like we did! This was a phenomenal shared meal experience! Even though we were completely FULL after our 14 Snacks/Entrees, we HAD TO also order all 3 of their desserts (shared by 8). A perfect way to end this fabulous meal! Note that their liquor license is coming soon but in the meantime, try one of their unique, refreshing mocktails! They also have a bunch of games at the bar, which you can bring to your table to play while waiting for your food. Parking: plenty of free street parking is available. There is also plenty of metered parking; free after 7pm. Big thanks to Owner Mimi and Chef for their hospitality and fine foods. We had such a great time! See you again soon!

Food Karaage- Juicy and flavorful and perfectly crispy. Tuna Tempura- not crispy as all.Flavor was good though. Yuzu Lamb chops- 3 basic but perfectly cooked chops.i did not taste any yuzu or miso as described.The soy sauce probably overpowered the flavors. The edamame mash potatoes served on the side were amazing,creamy with an umami flavor. Saki Miso Bronzino- Well cooked and mild miso flavor. Fried rice-Good flavor and was able to get it with a side of chicken. Chipotle Teriyaki chicken- Well cooked and flavorful. Did not get the chipotle flavors. Drinks Sakura-Perfect balance of fruity and floral,refreshing for the summer. Lit-chee sangria- Good but barely any lychee flavor.No seasonal fruit was served with it, as mentioned on the menu. Food is pricey for the portion size. Not an extensive menu.

My friends and I met up for brunch here last December. We wanted to meet as a pre-holiday…read moregathering. The place was located in Long Island City. Since my friends and I all live in Manhattan, it was an adventure for us. A rooftop restaurant with an outdoor terrace yes please. Decor was gorgeous and sleek. Although the bar was small, it was lighted and eye-catching. A huge Nutcracker greets you as soon as you walk inside. The space was loft style with seating upstairs as well as an outdoor terrace. (Terrace was closed due to winter). There was a DJ booth upstairs as well which led me to believe the place might turn into a club/lounge. Lots of seating everywhere. The crowd was mild when we arrived with a few birthdays observed. As the day went on the crowd was a bit more lively. The food looked quite delicious as my friends ordered steak and eggs and an English Muffin dish with poached eggs and fries. Good sized portions for the price. However, my French Toast was less than desired. Three sad little pieces of a faux brioche bread that was served cold. No salad on the plate as you can see from the picture. This was my meal for the day and not satisfying at all. Our waitress was very nice and did her due diligence EXCEPT for our water service. We ordered water and she did not specify that there was a charge for it. When our bill came and we asked about it, she stated that we "asked for flat water not tap water". I did not recall her stating there was a charge. She assumed we wanted flat BOTTLED water and charged us for it. Not good service since she was not being transparent. Bathrooms were clean. The place is definitely a vibe. If you are looking for views of the city and overpricing in Queens, this is your place. I would have to weigh my options prior to a second visit as I can't say it would be my first choice.

The setting inside definitely has an Asian feel to it, from the antiquity aestethic to the dim lighting of the place giving a feel of ease. I ordered my food and it came around in good enough time. I just stuck with something basic, the Chicken Katsu lunch special which came with rice, California rolls and my choice of ginger ale. The Chicken Katsu was pretty good. Breading on it could be a bit more firm with a bit of crunch, it was very light on batter but didn't take away from the meal as a whole. Rice had good texture and the California rolls were decent. Not overly the best Japanese food I had, but for what is worth, satisfying and didn't cost me much. Service was a bit on the lax side, but I don't mind it. I appreciate the waiters checking on me to see if I'm enjoying my food and it's appreciated, but at the same time, I also prefer just having the time and peace to eat so no complaints, after all the waitress was not too far when I did need her.

The…read morefood quality has really gone downhill, and the place felt almost empty, there were only two tables occupied, including us. We ordered shak trak, gyuma, shogo katsa, and Chong Ching. Honestly, it was pretty disappointing. The potatoes were sour and didn't taste fresh. The shak trak had a weird taste and was partly cold, like it had just been reheated. The gyuma was okay, but nothing special. The Chong Ching was also disappointing, and the portion size seemed smaller than before. The customer service wasn't great either, no one checked on us during the meal, and our water wasn't refilled unless we asked. Overall, the experience just didn't live up to how it used to be.

My friend & I ordered the Dan Dan noodles, Chong Qing chili chicken, spicy fish fillet with tofu, & tingmo. Dan Dan noodles- definitely pass on this, I am not sure why my friend got it to be honest. It lacked flavor. Chong Qing chili chicken- this, however, was absolutely fantastic. Do you know that it is a dry dish so it doesn't need noodles/rice/bread with it. Spicy fish fillet with tofu- this was also really good and they gave a very generous amount, especially for the price. Tingmo- I definitely understand the hype with this item as it is quite unique. Do note that it does need dipping sauce so if you get a curry/soup (like the spicy fish fillet with tofu), dip it in that, and it is quite delectable. However, I feel that the texture of it changes quickly, so eat it while it's fresh and hot. All in all, Nangma is a very spacious restaurant with some solid food & great service. I'd come back!
