As I sit down to pen this letter, my heart is overflowing with gratitude. It's hard to believe that it's already been a year since we opened Lingo in Greenpoint. Opening our first restaurant has been a dream come true.
I faced numerous challenges navigating through the culinary world, but it is my passion for food and determination to break barriers that keeps me going. Bringing this type of cuisine to NYC has been a culmination of my experiences, from my travels from Canada, Australia, London, and Singapore to my deep-rooted love for Japanese cuisine. Our team is dedicated to innovation and creativity, always striving to push the boundaries
As we celebrate our one-year anniversary we are excited to share what's ahead, including our new series, "Chef Emily's Midnight Diner." Expect new menu items and exciting collaborations as we continue to grow. To our loyal customers, your unwavering belief in us means everything. And to our new patrons, welcome to the family! Your support has been our driving force behind our success, and we’re deeply grateful for each of you who has walked through our doors.

About us
OUR STORY
Lingo offers a unique blend of Japanese American cuisine in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn. The restaurant's name, which means apple in Japanese, is a nod to the owner and founder's roots in Tokyo and her affection for the "Big Apple."
Led by Chef Emily Yuen, the menu at Lingo features a creative fusion of Japanese and American flavors. Guests can enjoy dishes such as smoked tamago sando, albacore tuna crudo, and beef and bone marrow pie. The cocktail program at Lingo showcases a diverse selection of Japanese spirits and seasonal ingredients. Guests can sip on classic cocktails with a Japanese twist, such as the Ichigo, a variation of a sour, with Roku gin, strawberry, and nigori sake, or try one of the restaurant's signature cocktails like the Lingo, made with Akashi whisky, calvados, and sakura bitters.
Lingo's location next to Transmitter Park provides a picturesque backdrop for diners to enjoy their meal and drinks. With its unique blend of flavors and cozy atmosphere, Lingo is a must-try for anyone looking to experience Japanese American cuisine in Brooklyn.
Lingo is our sister restaurant to our flagship hospitality catering company Shiki NYC
