Wahi-Latin American
Don’t be alarmed by the pile of cares and worries at the door. That’s just how it does down at 809 Bar & Grill! Once inside all you can do is celebrate and enjoy the food, live music, DJ and fun atmosphere. Invite friends to dive into the full bar and Latin menu and then onto the dance floor. Caliente!
Wait, there is a place that specializes in that Puerto Rican/Dominican carbohydrate goodness?! Brilliant! Put that diet on hold and head over for mashed garlicy green plantains mixed with whatever you want. Just the name alone will make you smile or at least go, “hmmm”. You know you want it! Stop playin’!
Head over early for a nice quiet dinner or lay in wait until 10pm for live music and cocktails. Conveniently located right off the 1 train, you can make it there any time you want.
When the mood for the exotic hits, let it wash over you at this Middle Eastern location. Come in to lounge at the hookah bar. Should smoking not be your thing, there is a full menu of diverse world foods for everyone from vegetarian to meat lovers.
Picture it: a house made of monfongo…walls made of garlic and mashed green plantain and each room a different savory addition like a chicharon bathroom, a bacalao bedroom and a pernil living room. No? Well, venture over to the real La Casa del Mofongo and take your pick, or one of the other menu items. The dream is real!
The name alone makes you want to sway your hips to each syllable. Don’t stop there! Keep swaying to the beat of the lively atmosphere while you sip on signature cocktails and bite on Nuevo Latino dishes. Whether tapas and sangria afterwork or mimosas with your Sunday brunch Mamajuana is calling for you.
Go south of the border on Dyckman. This is not just any Mexican restaurant. Papasito turns up tacos with short ribs, turns out quesadillas with lump crabmeat and lobster and turns on your taste buds with everything else. Enjoy dining al fresco over fresh guacamole and specialty cocktails. Now kick up your heels and shout, “Ole”!
If Kahlo, Miro, Dali and Picasso owned a nightclub and bar uptown, this would be it. Vacca is not only serving an eclectic menu that includes sushi, arepas, crispy Peking duck and truffle fries; they are showcasing art and design in an expressive and zany way. Go be a part of something new and lively and dance, dance, dance.
