Locanda Verde Description:
When Andrew Carmellini left A Voce---the restaurant he helped found---a legion of faithful eaters put their forks down and sighed. But after a year hiatus, he fired up the burners again at this Italian eatery in Robert DeNiro's The Greenwich Hotel. Formerly the space that housed the failed Ago, Locanda Verde's interior hasn't changed much. The menu, however, is Carmellini all the way. The offerings are a blend of rustic osteria and urban hot-spot. Crispy artichokes come deconstructed with mint sauce while the lamb amatriciana is a small mountain of spaghetti mingled with rich lamb sauce. The well prepared scallops Pugliese (accompanied by rapini and chickpeas) and the ultra-tender house-made porchetta highlight the impressive dishes. The wine list, predictably, sticks to the Italian peninsula.
