Sundays in Newport are about to taste a lot better thanks to La Vecina’s new brunch lineup. The Washington Square taqueria, already loved for its bold flavors and festive atmosphere, is now serving a Sunday morning menu that reimagines brunch with authentic Mexican flair.
Executive Chef Mariana Gonzalez-Trasvina has created a spread that turns late mornings into a celebration. Chilaquiles arrive piled high with salsa verde and a perfectly fried egg. Carnitas Hash layers smoky poblanos, habanero salsa, and cotija for a rich, savory bite. The breakfast burrito is a handheld feast filled with scrambled eggs, pinto beans, chipotle aioli, and crispy home fries.
For those who lean sweet, Tres Leches French Toast drips with dulce de leche, while Fried Chicken and Churros bring a savory-sweet surprise with chipotle maple and agave sea salt butter.
The cocktails are just as compelling. La Vecina’s list balances classics with inventive twists. The Cadillac Margarita elevates aged tequila with a Grand Marnier float, while the Mezcalita blends mezcal, pineapple, mint, elderflower, and aquafaba for frothy flair. Nonalcoholic options stand out too, with aguas frescas in flavors like verde with basil and pineapple, roja with watermelon and lime sugar, and blanca with horchata and coconut milk.
Brunch is served every Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., making it an easy stop after the farmers market, the perfect excuse for a long, lazy morning, or the fuel you need before an afternoon by the water. With lively plates, inventive cocktails, and Chef Mariana’s vibrant touch, La Vecina’s brunch is poised to become a weekend favorite.
