“We’re creating a menu that will offer dishes that have a familiar flavor profile, but with an innovative twist and more refined look,” said Trinh Nguyen.

“Whether it’s hard to find ingredients, inspiration from another culture, or unique cooking techniques, we’re striving to offer a fresh perspective on Vietnamese cuisine.”

According to the restaurant, one of the highlights from the raw bar is oc (sea snail) and the different varieties that guests will have the opportunity to experience.

Ramie’s menu will also include desserts like Chè đậu đen black bean mousse, and Chè Thái coconut pavlova. The full menu is also already online!

As for the drinks, the cocktails will focus “on emerging Vietnamese, Asian and lesser-known spirits and incorporate fresh ingredients into the hyper-intentional cocktail list. The wine list will feature both Old World and New World wines with an emphasis on organic and biodynamic producers.”

The 3,055 square-foot space has been transformed into an inviting and elegant space with charcoal shelving and banquettes, jade walls, and brass accents, according to the restaurant.

Inside, there is seating for 53, with the white marble bar accommodating eight guests. The lounge area offers seating for 20, and there are “tall glass windows on the eastside of the restaurant” that will open accordion-style to accommodate seasonal patio dining for 12.

There is also a mezzanine for private events that can accommodate 22 people.
