We've been to Penelope's in Murray Hill many times and I would like to something a bit different. I was thinking Prune but I know that they don't take reservations. If we arrive around 10:30 am on Sunday with three people, do you think that the wait would be more than 30 minutes? Any other restaurant suggestions would also be appreciated. I'm looking to stay downtown and for atmosphere nice but nothing incredibly expensive. Many thanks!

There's nowhere to wait inside. I would try to reserve at Five Points, Locanda Verde, Perilla, or go to Blue Ribbon Bakery. Tue Nov 10 11:54:51 -0800 2009 5170173 10936 kathryn 2 5170655 Good advice! I just made a reservation at Perilla. Any must haves for brunch there? Thanks Kathryn. Tue Nov 10 12:20:03 -0800 2009 5170590 75862 newfoodie
