Leuca

Located in the heart of fashionable Williamsburg, Leuca is the latest addition to the NoHo Hospitality Group’s collection of New York hot spots. On the ground floor of The William Vale, the 5820 square foot venue celebrates Southern Italian cuisine in a menu of wood-fired pizza, earthy pastas and grilled specialties crafted by chef Andrew Carmellini. Meant as an inviting, sophisticated yet approachable setting for travelers and locals alike to socialize in, the soulful 187 seat restaurant was designed following the poetic narrative of a young couple and their little girl relocating from Europe to Brooklyn. The venue is a romantic projection of their childhood spent in Italy and a reminiscence of their Nona’s country house. Featuring authentic and honest materials in an extensive custom FF&E program crafted either locally or in Italy, the warm interior perfectly represents the Southern Italian menu resulting in a truly holistic dining experience.

"At the subterranean foot of The William Vale hotel rests Leuca, a surprisingly expansive space and an attractive, adult addition to the ’hood."

"Unexpected gem. Sorry Brooklynites, on past visits we have been so often disappointed by Williamsburg restaurants' grunge and lackadaisical service. What a surprise here! Very neat and clean, friendly ambiance."
