ATHLEISURE MAG #72 DEC ISSUE | Athleisure List: Mad Morton

Mad Morton opened in October 2021 with a focus on celebrating NYC's "madness". Focusing on weekend brunch and dinner, this vibrant space allows for special moments to be shared as a place to unite and gather. Designed for sharing food, drinks, and stories between friends and lovers, this restaurant is meant for memorable weekend brunches and nights out on the town.

As a hotspot destination, visitors and patrons alike are drawn in by the ambiance. In the heart of West Village, Mad Morton is a chic venue featuring bright, glowing shades of pink neon lighting, exposed brick archways, and an elegant horseshoe bar.

We suggest when coming for dinner, 3 appetizers are a must have: the Mad Morton Salad with arugula, candied walnuts, dried cranberries, goat cheese, lemon vinaigrette, and granny smith apple as a delicious gluten free option! Our other favorites are the Calamari with homemade marinara sauce, chipotle aioli, and pickled red long chillies or their Shishito Peppers with cured egg yolk, lemon, and sea salt (vegetarian and gluten free!).

For dinner, Mad Morton’s menu includes a variety of options. Personal dinner favorites are the Atlantic Salmon with romesco, almonds, and seasonal sautéed vegetables (healthy gluten free option!), the Mad Morton Burger, and Coconut Plantain!

For brunch, enjoy their signature Avocado Toast with sweet cherry tomatoes on grilled sourdough. Top this dish off with a poached egg for perfection. For something sweet and savory, go for their Chicken and Waffles with buttermilk crispy chicken, belgian waffle, and maple syrup. We also highly recommend their Steak & Eggs with a side of crispy home fries.

3 cocktails to enjoy are: Respect The Grind with Fernet Branca, cold brew, simple syrup, Branca Menta, whipped cream, garnished with half a donut, Bullet with Butterfly Wings with Grey Goose, Butterfly Pea Flower, honey, vanilla, and egg white, and finally their spicy and fruity Morton Street Heat with milagro Reposado, amaro, strawberry-cucumber shrub, lime, pineapple-habanero hot sauce!

Mad Morton's new Brunch Deal is $25.00/1.5 hours with purchase of an entree! There is also a Drag Brunch on Sundays: 1.5 hours of drinking + an entree for a special deal of only $49.99 (includes Froze, Mimosas, Rum Punch, Sangria & Bloody Mary’s). For New Year’s Eve, you can ring in the new year with dinner, a champagne toast, music & party favors!
