Porta Blu Adds Live Jazz To Sunday Brunch

MENLO PARK, CA – Porta Blu, a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant inside Hotel Nia in Menlo Park, is jazzing up its Sunday brunch service with a new music series beginning Jan. 20.

The live entertainment will run from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and feature such local talent as Redwood City duo ABG and the Jazz Cats and singer/songwriter Justin Brown.

“We wanted to create a new experience for our Silicon Valley locals and guests by adding live music, and incorporating an elevated Mediterranean inspired brunch that represents the diverse community of the Bay Area,” said Porta Blu chef Michael Riddell.

A la carte brunch items range from $7 to $25 and include steak and eggs, dungeness crab toast and a brussel sprout and kale salad. Cocktails are $12 to $16. One standout libation is the "Winter Harvest" -- a blend of cognac, cinnamon syrup, apple butter, seltzer and brandied cherry.

Porta Blu opened in 2018 and is located at 200 Independence Drive. For reservations, call 650-304-3800 or book online here.
