Bonnie's is a Cantonese-American restaurant in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, in New York City.

History[edit]

Calvin Eng opened Bonnie's in December 2021.[1] Eng previously worked at Win Son as chef de cuisine.[2] Eng named the restaurant for his mother.[3]

Before opening Bonnie, Eng served potential menu items at pop-ups around New York City.[4] Eng was inspired by his mother's cooking and by the offerings of cha chaan tengs.[4]

Accolades[edit]

The Financial Times included Bonnie's on its April 2024 list detailing five of the "most exciting new-wave" Chinese eating establishments in New York City, alongside other restaurants including Figure Eight.[5] The author of the list, Lilah Raptopoulos, praised the restaurant's ambience and highlighted dishes including the stuffed cabbage.[5]
