Fall Tracking: A Voce Columbus

A Voce Columbus, 10 Columbus Circle, 212-823-2523
Initial Projection: Spring '09
Current Debut Projection: September 9
Odds, On Time Arrival: Even
Eater Projected Opening Date: 09/09/09

As noted over on Grub Street, Thrillist, and The Feed, A Voce is opening up soon in the Time Warner Center. They've been taking resys for over a week now and they soft open to the public two days after Labor Day. Those who live above the Midtown divide can save a trip down to Madison and 26th for their rustic Italian fare, while others who just love that oh so homey feel of that Time Warner Center mall can also get in their fix. Admittedly the views (even from the third floor) are much better than those at the downtown sister restaurant and the decor is much less subdued. The powers that be have released chef Missy Robbins' and Jeremy McMillan's A Voce 2.0 menu, so take a gander before making those resys. The official opening is on the 18.
