The Grove has a new dining option: Bar Verde, a full-service restaurant and bar now open at Nordstrom. This is the second location for the LA area (the first opened at the new Nordstrom at Americana at Brand in September), with indoor and outdoor seating, lunch and menus inspired by the seasons and local produce, and a full bar with wine, beer and specialty cocktails. For lunch, you’ll find things like a Caesar salad topped with fried Pacific oysters and yogurt dressing, Asian chopped shrimp salad, and and dark-cherry chicken sliders; for dinner, salads, flatbreads topped with wild mushrooms and truffled pecorino cheese, and entrees like roasted chicken with prosciutto and sage, oven-roasted wild salmon with black olive tapenade; and lamb with butternut squash and taleggio risotto. Views from the window look out over everything, including the annual tree lighting festivities, which take place this Saturday, November 17 (7:30 PM). Regular hours are Monday through Thursday, 11 AM-11 PM, Friday and Saturday, 11 AM-midnight; and Sundays, 11 AM-10 PM.
