Locanda Verde Sunday Brunch in NYC

Locanda Verde was a great environment for a casual group brunch in Tribeca! When the weather gets a little warmer, there is a fantastic courtyard in the back for larger parties, and they will also open the doors and windows in the main dining room.

What we Drank: Huckleberry Bellini, Bicicleta, Gin Gin Mule

Favorite Dish: Our favorite dish was the Uovo Modenese! The tomato hollandaise was awesome, and the grilled bread served with the dish was a great addition.

Least Favorite Dish: The Scampi & Grits were nothing to write home about. The shrimp were a little on the “fishy” side, and the portion was very small. The polenta was pretty nonexistent, but to be fair, the sausage was very good!
