La Tomate Review

Mimosas quickly turn a darker shade of orange once it becomes apparent you actually intend to get your money’s worth.

"Mushed Avocado" is a valiant entry in the ongoing series Restaurants Not Calling It Avocado Toast, but, as always with the classic millennial punching bag, it’s actually quite good. If that or other brunch fare isn’t your thing, it’s still a full-service Italian restaurant, complete with aggressive baskets of free bread and similarly generous, if considerably less free, pasta dishes.

Refills are exceptionally fast, but seemingly expire with your plates, so drink up. There was also a very unsatisfying explanation about why they couldn’t serve spinach that we chose not to dwell on.

Ambiance

Refills were likely exceptionally fast because we were the only group in sight for much of our meal.

The bellinis and mimosas have a respectably small tinge, and we appreciate the straight champagne option, but it's really the espresso martinis — six different options, freshly made at a cart wheeled over to your table — that salvage the price.

Han Palace offers a full dim-sum experience; we found Option A quite filling at $38 a person, but if you're feeling particularly extravagant, you can upgrade to Option B and get Peking Duck for brunch.

It's a good thing the $30 bottomless deal comes with the freedom to pour your own champagne and multiple flavors, because we're 99 percent sure the "orange juice" was SunnyD.

We're like the postmen. We brunch in rain, sleet, or snow
