Colombian restaurant opens on Greenpoint tonight
The Miami-based Colombian restaurant chain Los Verdes will open its first New York City location at 46-26 Greenpoint Avenue tonight.
As previously reported, the restaurant will serve a Colombian-style fast food, including kernel corn, quesadillas, grilled platters, hot dogs, homemade coleslaw, beers and fresh juices. Los Verdes features late night hours until 3:00 am during the week and 6:00am on weekends.
Javier Quezada, owner of Los Verdes, said the food is “Colombian-style fast food but not just for Colombians. It’s geared for everyone to enjoy.”
Quezada selected Sunnyside for his first New York City location because “it’s such a diverse neighborhood. There are people here from everywhere.”

This is the real Los Verdes in Medellín: http://www.losverdes.com.co/
I hope this place is almost as good as the real one. Though I can’t imagine how most americans would enjoy the kind of stuff they serve at the one in Medellín.
