Hi,
We are looking for a good spot for lunch before our visit to the Cloisters Museum. It can be a total hole in the wall and the ambiance is not really important as long as the food is tasty and authentic. The space can't be too small tho since we will probably have at least 8 - 10 people.

BTW, anyone familiar with Malecon? The place seems to be a popular choice on Yelp...

Thanks!

I second the foie gras brulee and young gralic soup and I also really liked the red snapper crusted with nuts and seeds. Enjoy!

Thanks, ajen
Have you ever tried La Barra? I also heard Sushi Samba has decent ceviche although I think the sushi there is way overpriced for what it is.

...preferably below 23rd

Preferably below 23rd, thanks
