WHAT THEY SAID
I love Aldea. It’s his heritage, you see George Mendes is cooking from his heart. In this cutest little modern restaurant in New York City and you just taste it. You see it and it’s just so cool to have that connection.

I like what George Mendes is doing at his restaurant Aldea, he worked with me at Wallse for many years. The price point is right and the food is very interesting.
