Vida Verde, Mexican restaurant in Midtown Manhattan, US
Vida Verde is a Mexican restaurant in Midtown Manhattan spread across three levels with a rooftop patio for outdoor dining. The space combines indoor seating with an open-air rooftop area that looks out over the neighborhood.
The restaurant was founded by Chef Ignacio Cotzomi, who brought regional Mexican cooking techniques and blended them with New York influences. This combination remains central to how the kitchen operates.
The kitchen makes fresh tortillas every day, filling them with traditional ingredients like chicken adobo, carnitas, and fish for each plate. This hands-on approach shapes how the place feels and what you taste when you eat here.
The restaurant stays open late until 3 AM on weekdays and 4 AM on weekends, with a special late-night menu starting at midnight. You can get food at hours when most other places around the city have already closed.
On weekends, the restaurant offers a Boozy Brunchacha event where guests enjoy 90 minutes of unlimited drinks paired with Mexican breakfast dishes. This special event runs from noon until 4 PM and draws a particular crowd.
