Ken SuhOctober 13, 2016Think this place on mid Manhattan is really popular. I went there on lunch hour and ordered Grilled Skirt steak sandwich. It tastes so good! The staff were very friendly and service was really quick.
FoodiesprJuly 8, 2016Beautiful and simple five spice Pork Belly #sandwich with pickle Asian pear, magic is on the crusty skin of the #porkbelly #delicious @numpangnyc #nyc #foodiespr #food #foodporn #nyceats
Toad MushroomMarch 22, 2014PORK BELLY: amazing spin on vietnamese banh mi. bread toasted to perfection with papadam-like toast on the outside. would taste even better if the stems of cilantro were taken out.
Queen LooshaJuly 11, 2015Tiger prawn sandwich, don't forget to grab the spicy sauce (doesn't taste too hot but adds amazing flavor). Whenever in a hurry this is the right place. Small seating area but very fulfilling portion.
Likely the best sandwich shop in NYC. Try the Five-Spice Glazed Pork Belly, Pulled Duroc Pork, or Grilled Khmer Sausage, in that order. Use Grubhub & place an advance order to avoid the lunch lines.
Steve HerreraAugust 29, 2014First time here. Had the 5 spice glazed pork belly sandwich with pickled veggies and a blood orange lemonade. All was very tasty! Definitely am adding this place into my lunch rotation.
Sean HowellApril 26, 2018Steak bowl definitely beats the weak bun mi. In nyc this might qualify as good but virtually any Vietnamese sandwich from any place in any little Saigon is significantly better. Demand more nyc
If the grilled peach and bacon sandwich is on the menu, don't think twice. Thick slabs of grilled peach, bacon, jalapeños, shredded carrots, scallions, and a little spicy mayo, on a baguette. Mmmm.
MichelleJanuary 17, 2013For my first visit, I followed the tips and went with the Five-Spice Glazed Pork Belly. AMAZING! This place takes down the Midtown douchiness a notch (only a notch bc Public House is still next door).
Rob PrattAugust 22, 2014The grilled steak salad is quite good. Nice amount of steak, fresh vegetables and nice seasonings and dressing. A healthy alternative to the sandwich that satisfies completely.
Antony MossSeptember 26, 2012Don't be put off by the long queue: these guys process customers FAST, and the classic catfish sandwiches are incredible. Going back for the pulled pork, and think I may plan a vacation in Cambodia!
Liz SadkowskiNovember 28, 2012A god send. I was nervous the first time, crazy combinations. But trust me, whatever it is that they're doing, they KNOW what they're doing, and they're incredible. Pork belly all the way!
Rachel SheppardSeptember 16, 2013I know the pulled pork is the real crowd pleaser, but the roasted cauliflower was the best sandwich I've had in years. It's full of so many delicious veggies and sauces.
This sandwich place is ridiculously delicious! I've been going here for the last week for lunch. The steak sandwich is to die for: it's savory and extremely chewy. It's about $9.50/sandwich.- Steve HerreraSeptember 2, 2014It pays to experiment! Tried a "Seasonal" sandwich that normally wouldn't have appealed to me: "Peach & Bacon". Trust me, despite how it sounds, this was surprisingly tasty combination.
Daniel WiegandApril 27, 2018The vegetarian Sanwiches are great - try them both and mix the tofu with the cauliflower 👌🏻
Joey JFebruary 15, 2015Coconut Tiger Shrimp sandwich. My absolute go to. If you are extra hungry, get some grilled corn on the side. The bread is made fresh all day.
Tom MaxwellJune 1, 2017Love, love, love this place. The crusty bread and contrast between savory pork and watery cucumber make for an amazing sandwich
Glazed pork belly is the bomb ! Classic catfish, hoisin meatball and chicken chimi are all great, not fancying the steak, flavored and texture are good but smthn amiss. Salt ?
Go with the specials; they don't last long, and you'll have plenty of time to try the static menu. I had a grilled peach and bacon sandwich last time I went, and it was beyond excellent.
Happy hour on roasted cauliflower and pulled pork sandwiches. $6 m-f until 7pm. Get the numpang level up app and collect rewards to save $$.
Unbelievable!! Pork Belly Sandwich to die for. It totally melts in your mouth as flavor after flavor cascades over your tastebuds!!! The grilled corn is also a must!
Rachel MillertimeAugust 16, 2015Cambodian iced coffee is here! Coffee, condensed coconut milk, and tamarind. Very delicious. Roasted cauliflower sandwich is also excellent.
NearSay NYCJuly 29, 2011Nam Pang serves up very nice sized sandwiches are packed with flavor! Coconut shrimp sandwich is our top choice with the pulled pork coming in at a close second. N-Sider tip: Cash ONLY!
Dan HollandMay 18, 2015The reason I love Four Square. I had the pulled pork sandwich. Great place, spot on sandwich. Had a nice enough mango juice too
Peter PalumboJune 16, 2017Pork belly sandwich was delicious. The house made pickles were excellent as well. Fast service, friendly staff and good food.
Carmen NAugust 9, 2014If they had a place to eat inside, I'd come more often. Try a seasonal special sandwich. Also the grilled corn is excellent.- Toad MushroomMarch 22, 2014HOT GINGER APPLE TEA: ginger candy in liquid form. spicy enough to make you question whether the drink is warming you up or cooling you down.
Ryan AmbsAugust 15, 2014Sandwiches are soo good. They're that odd size where they leave you wanting just a bit more. No real seating at this location which is a bummer bc they can be a bit messy and don't travel well.
Lela MamistvalovaMay 27, 2014I had the coconut tiger shrimp, although it was only like 4 pieces of shrimp.With the bread and other stuff it was filling.will come back to try other stuff. Although majority of stuff is meat/pork :(
Sammies used to be perfectly prepped but standards must be slipping...my Roasted Cauliflower was almost raw & eggplant spread was non-existent compared to rest of ingredients. Just not that good now.
Stephanie SigmarificJune 4, 2013Please try the Peppercorn Catfish sandwich its AMAZING and the cashier with the awesome plugs was super nice! Would definitely come back!
There's often a long line, but it moves surprisingly fast. Everything on the menu is worth a try, and be sure to slather it with sriracha for maximum tastiness.
Lynn Marie FrancoFebruary 17, 2015Absolutely delicious!! The pork belly sandwich is everything people said it would be. Will come back for more!
Chad CurryAugust 6, 2014The sandwiches here are really well executed. Simple and flavorful. Small place, so either get it to go or eat it standing up.
Jose TaverasFebruary 26, 2014Went once and loved it. All I can say is that you can't go wrong with some pulled pork sandwich. Delicious.
Theresa RoldanFebruary 11, 2013Apparently one of the best sandwich shops in NYC, and it certainly did not disappoint. Definitely recommend the pulled pork sandwich!
Simone MainiOctober 18, 2013Delicious coconut shrimp salad - for when you just can't take any more bread. Great properly spicy ginger beer on sale too.
Tim LeeOctober 6, 2018Delicious and the variety of flavors was surprising! Wish the sandwiches were about 20% larger.
These sandwiches are so good, it's worth a trip AT LEAST once a week. Small in size but very filling. Favorites are the pork belly and the spanish mackerel.
Tasting TableJune 28, 2012Try the ABC Pang sandwich, a collaboration between the chefs of ABC kitchen and Num Pang. The sandwich benefits the Edible Schoolyard Project and the Double H Ranch: Read more
Doris HuJune 1, 2015No rice bowls in this location but the pork sandwich is awesome. A bit messy to eat but worth it!
Leandro LageraMay 29, 2016Man. Talk about love at first bite. The pork belly will hook you and the shrimp will keep you coming back
AmateurConciergeOctober 7, 2015Coconut tiger shrimp ALWAYS. Someone put me up on the corn. Like a bastardized Thai version of the Cafe Habana classic
Lisa TaylorApril 10, 2013First time here after hearing so many good things about the pork belly sandwich...it was worth the trip! Love the pork belly sandwich!
Jenn CoughlinOctober 24, 2015The coconut tiger shrimp sandwich and the pulled pork sandwich are off the charts good
Andrew FalsettiOctober 9, 2013The Grilled Khmer Sausage sandwich is AWESOME! The Cambodian Slaw on the sandwich makes it even better!- The savory & sweet grilled peach & bacon sandwich is a bit messy & juicy but is a yummy summer addition to Num Pang's many delish sammies on their menu!
