Description
No Work Allowed (NWA) is a Japanese izakaya with a northeastern Thai twist. It's a unique culinary destination in Midtown East where good food, great drinks, and live music come together in a relaxed, vintage-inspired atmosphere. Founded by a team of food enthusiasts with a passion for American nostalgia and jazz, NWA invites guests to unwind after a long day and experience an unforgettable meal. Leading the kitchen is Hawk Rodman, a talented chef with years of experience in Thai cuisine and training under the renowned chef Masayoshi Takayama at the three Michelin-starred Masa in NYC. Chef Hawk brings a refined fusion of Japanese techniques and Thai flavors to the menu, delivering dishes that are both innovative and comforting. Be sure to try his signature Pad Thai, a tribute to his time with Chef Masa.
