Vela (La) - New York City

  • Description:

    • Vela (La) is the perfect halt before or after visiting the Museum of Natural History. Step in to enjoy the cozy ambiance, reinforced by Italian interiors and red-checkered table cloths. Apart from being a favorite neighbourhood hangout, it also attracts many tourists because of the proximity to the museum. The homemade pastas will make you want to return more often, and patrons actually swear by the Gnocci with Gorgonzolla! You can order your favorite wine to wash it all down. The waitstaff is quite efficient and friendly; they will ensure that your dining experience is pleasant.
