Venezuelan bar with fantastic arepas, empanadas, and very cold beer! Try the Mariscada (seafood soup) or tostones. Not too crowded and they're always showing the soccer game!

It's a *little* closer than the Met! World class exhibits like Basquiat, Kahlo, O' Keefe housed in a gorgeous building. At the edge of the Botanic Gardens - easy to make a day visiting both!
