Imagine a place where age knows no bounds and a cozy atmosphere meets great food and drinks - that's 222! This hidden gem nestled in the back of Mochi Dolci on 222 West 79 Street in New York is more than just a mere watering hole. It's the brainchild of an ambitious visionary named Aoommie who dared to dream of something more. With a little help from her husband Leo, a secret door was installed behind a pink telephone booth, and voila, a new star was born!

At the 222 Speakeasy, our handmade dumplings are a tribute to Thailand's rich culinary heritage. Each dumpling is meticulously crafted on-site, showcasing a range of Thai-inspired fillings from spicy basil chicken to pork and chives. Reflecting the diverse Thai palate, these dumplings are golden fried or pan-fried and steamed. We use delicate wrappers that perfectly encase the vibrant, aromatic ingredients within. Our guests delight in these flavorful bites, which are not just a meal but a journey through the heart of Thai cuisine right here in our kitchen.
