Marc Vetri’s new restaurant Amìs is scheduled to open next week in Washington Square West, right around the time he said it would in our fall openings preview. Vetri’s take on a casual Roman trattoria, which will be cheffed by Brad Spence, who was most recently in charge of the kitchen at Vetri, features meats cured in-house, homemade pastas, plus fish, meats and, for the adventurous, plenty of offal - from sweetbreads to fried lamb’s tongue. Vetri provided us with a peek at a working menu, which you can click through to view. As it’s not completely finalized, Vetri cautions that some items may change by the opening, but it’s mostly accurate.
