Di An Di

Di An Di made a splash when it opened in spring 2018 for its stunning interior design and comforting, yet thrilling Vietnamese fare. That hype hasn’t let up during the pandemic, either. Tables at the restaurant’s self-service outdoor seating area can still be tough to nab, while co-owners Dennis Ngo, Kim Hoang, and Tuan Bui have adapted its shareable meal sets and noodle dishes for takeout and delivery. There’s no substitute for a meal in the restaurant’s meticulous, plant-filled indoor dining room, but its covered outdoor seating area — made up of hanging market lights and houseplants — comes in a close second place.
