Lupo Verde Osteria Debuts Unlimited ‘Social Brunch’

When Lupo Verde Osteria (4814 MacArthur Blvd, NW,) goes social, it’s something special. 

The restaurant’s new Social Brunch is a bottomless Italian weekend affair debuting Saturday, July 21 and then available Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Priced at $35 per person*, guests can enjoy authentic, rustic, Italian fare in a family-style format.  Choose one antipasti, one side dish, two pastas or egg dishes and one bottle of prosecco off the featured menu prepared by Corporate Chef Matteo Venini.

We love almost everything on the family-style brunch menu, but especially the Uova in Camicia (poached eggs in San Marzano tomato sauce, fresh basil, shallots and grilled bread); Paccheri alla Carbonara (at right – homemade paccheri with guanciale, eggs and pecorino); Benedetta Porchetta (with homemade bread, porchetta, parmesan cheese, hollandaise, salsa verde and poached eggs)… and don’t pass up the Toast al Tiramisu (at left) with coffee-soaked brioche bread, tiramisu cream, chocolate and candied walnuts!

Your table’s bottle of Prosecco will be served with three seasonal, house-made juices, which may change by the week.  Additional spirits are available for an added charge.

*The Social Brunch menu must be ordered for the entire table.
