Haiku Asian Bistro

Shines Like a Diamond in Woodbury
Nestled in an obscure corner of the Woodbury Town Plaza shopping center is a culinary jewel of the Far East. Opened in 2008, Haiku Asian Bistro is a popular destination for pan-Asian enthusiasts and the only Long Island location of the Haiku restaurant group that currently owns five sister restaurants in upstate New York. My travels led me to the small storefront, almost hidden within a multitude of other dining spots in what I discovered are two side-by-side shopping centers on Jericho Turnpike. My early Wednesday night visit was met with a bustling wait staff, early-bird diners and take-out frenzy; an evident sign of Haiku’s incredible success. I was greeted by restaurant manager Alex Hoo, a gregarious, cheerful man who gave us the best seats in the house.
