Nue

Murals in Monet-like pastels fill the walls at this showy Vietnamese dining room, while attention-getting cocktails are set aflame at the table. But it’s not all about visuals: Spring rolls stuffed with crab, shrimp, and pork are wondrous, and a plate of short ribs, fragrant with five spice and set atop pappardelle, is a clever reimagining of a traditional beef stew. Nab the sticky rice with mango when first ordering—it often sells out.
