Weekend Brunch at L'Amico

There is no better way to spend a Saturday or Sunday in the city than with good food, no real agenda, and a table at a restaurant that takes brunch as seriously as dinner. L'Amico's weekend brunch brings the same wood-fired Italian cooking that defines our evenings to the afternoon, and it is worth building your day around.

Start with something from the pizza oven, still blistered and fragrant, exactly as it comes out at dinner. The pasta here is made by hand and it shows. Pair either with something from the bar, whether that is a classic Aperol spritz, a Bloody Mary built the right way, or simply a glass of something Italian and cold. Brunch at L'Amico is the kind of meal that encourages you to stay a little longer than you planned.

The dining room fills up on weekends, and for good reason. If you want to guarantee your table, reservations are the move. Walk-ins are always welcome, but a little planning goes a long way when half of Chelsea has the same idea you do.

L'Amico is located on the Avenue of the Americas, easy to reach from the Flatiron District, Chelsea, and beyond. Book your weekend brunch table at lamico.nyc and come hungry.
