This southwest corner of Second Avenue and Fourth Street was formerly home to Contrada, Calliope and Belcourt. For now, the Contrada signage remains up.
Please ket us know if you have tried La Contrada.

Not sure if keeping the old restaurant's signage was a canny move to avoid business debt, or a bleak sign that this place is cheap and not-long-for-this-world.
We all have to agree that the landlord is a part of the problem here, right? I would offer the possibility that the space is "cursed" but apparently the lease isn't available for any discount if the space sat open in the hot East Village restaurant market for months...
I don't get why the name/sign is the same?
I need a lasagna fix now!!
Wish it were better. Too much not great red sauce on overcooked spaghetti
