About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Charming
Innovative

Falansai ("fuh-lan-sigh") is a Vietnamese-Mexican restaurant by chef Eric Tran located in the heart of Bushwick, Brooklyn. Just past historical warehouses and vintage clothing shops, you will discover the unique approach to elevated fusion where distinctive Vietnamese and Mexican flavors are artfully remixed with the best seasonal ingredients, while good vibes pulse in the background.

Explore our signature Super and Classic Dac Biet dinner menus or dive into some of our celebrated dishes from the A La Carte options.

Falansai was established in 2013, and reimagined in 2020. Henry Trieu originally opened Falansai in 2013 and named the restaurant for his father's pronunciation of the word "français." Henry closed the restaurant in early 2020 and sold it to Chef Eric Tran. Falansai "2.0" was reimagined in November of 2020. As a Vietnamese-Mexican and American from Chi-Town (and now New Yorker), diners can expect the unexpected from Eric's cooking.

Falansai "Dac Biet" Tasting Experience
$58.00 per person
Multiple dates available
At $58 per person, the Dac Biet is a three-course tasting that starts with our signature Dad’s Egg Rolls & papaya-vermicelli salad served family style. The second course is a diner’s choice of one main event: Honey Glazed Pork Shoulder, Black Sea Bass, or Lemongrass Beef Skewers over Vietnamese broken rice, with seasonal vegetables in broth. Final course is a chef’s choice dessert. All savory items are enjoyed with an abundance of house pickles, ferments, and sauces. Flavors and cooking techniques reflect Chef Eric’s heritage as a Vietnamese-Mexican American. We recommend full table participation. We can accommodate vegetarians and vegans.
Falansai "SUPER Dac Biet" Tasting Experience
$88.00 per person
Multiple dates available
At $88 per person, the SUPER Dac Biet is a five-course tasting, served family style, and enjoyed w/ an abundance of house pickles, ferments, and sauces. Flavors and cooking techniques reflect Chef Eric’s heritage as a Vietnamese-Mexican American. Diners typically receive 5 different savory plates in 2-3 waves, with accompaniments and dessert to finish. The first round of savories are interactive small plates that we encourage you to enjoy with your hands. The second round is a substantial course centered around a showcase protein. We recommend full table participation so that we have an opportunity to showcase and cook the most exciting seasonal products from our favorite farms, butchers, and fishmongers.

open table listing is inaccurate — says their tasting menu can accommodate both vegans and vegetarians but we were surprised to learn at the restaurant that it accommodates neither

Excellent dining experience -- the food was fantastic and well executed, fusing cuisines to make something delectable (duck tamales wrapped in smooth banana leaf? Yes please). The atmosphere was casual in all the right ways, unpretentious while still offering great quality. And the portions were great. This kind of gem is hard to find in NYC anymore.

Excellent as always. Falansai's full tasting menu, what's now called the 'Super' Dac Biet, has been a regular feature of our birthday/anniversary dinner rotation for years now (I maintain you're doing it wrong if you only order ala carte here) and it's always a blast. The team does an amazing job of making really high-end, inventive cooking feel fun and casual. I have to give a huge shout-out to the beverage program as well; Falansai's wine list might have the most reasonable prices of any decent restaurant in New York right now (a five-course wine pairing for $65 in this day and age is nuts) and there's always something interesting and unexpected on offer. Even the really baller bottles (which you might have to ask to see the reserve list to know about in the first place), which are often on par with the best wine you can buy anywhere in the city, are sold at astoundingly fair prices. Falansai is a gem of an increasingly rare breed in NYC.

Not only was the food incredible, but the ambiance was so cozy, and my server was really well-versed, genuine, and kind. Well worth the trip. I came from Chicago knowing I wanted to have this meal, and I was not disappointed whatsoever. Incredible.
