OMAI is a modern Vietnamese and Thai restaurant in the heart of New York City, inspired by the vibrant street culture of Saigon, the refined elegance of Hanoi, and the bold flavors of Bangkok.
We honor traditional Vietnamese and Thai recipes while reimagining them with seasonal ingredients and contemporary presentation. From aromatic pho and tom yum to delicate banh cuon and pad thai, every dish is crafted with balance, freshness, and intention.
At OMAI, dining is more than a meal — it is an experience of flavor, culture, and connection across Southeast Asia.

Our story...
