Coming soon, a new restaurant honoring the past, present, and future of Hmong cooking.
It’s happening. After years of pop-ups and travels through kitchens, we are building a permanent home in Northeast Minneapolis. Follow along as we build our restaurant from the ground up. Until we open our doors, you can bring Vinai to you—book a Vinai Gathering to get a taste of what is to come. Thank you for your continued support. We can’t wait to host you.
CHEF YIA VANG
OUR FOOD
Hmong food draws on the flavors of the Southeast Asian countries that the nomadic Hmong people traveled through. Our menu features modern interpretations of the Hmong family dishes Yia grew up eating including large shared mains, bright veggie sides and bold sauces.
