Openings: Hearty & Healthy on 1st Avenue

Hearty & Healthy debuted at 103 First Ave. between Sixth Street and Seventh Street earlier this month.

Andee Rosario (pictured below), a hospitality vet whose family operates Los Munchies in upper Manhattan, The Bronx, and Queens, started the business as a ghost kitchen in the East Village during the pandemic. 

Given the brand's delivery success, she and her team decided to open a restaurant. 

Per a rep: "Sourcing organic and locally whenever possible, Hearty & Healthy has everybody covered with a menu full of options for vegetarians, pescatarians, vegans, and gluten-free diners ... the restaurant is great for groups and aims to be a destination where guests with different dietary preferences can all enjoy a meal together."
Hours: Tuesday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to midnight; Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m.; Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m.; and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. They are open for lunch and brunch on weekends. While there is a full bar menu, they also offer alcohol-free cocktails. 

You can find the website and menu here. And if you're on Instagram.

This space was home to Sidney's Five for three years until February.
