FRIDAY, SATURDAY 9AM - 10PM
La Bodega by Cúrate is an all-day Spanish restaurant, market and wine. In 2022, the concept expanded into a newly remodeled two-story space at 32 S. Lexington Avenue. Helmed by Chef de Cuisine Matt Brown, La Bodega is a concept born out of the pandemic that brings together the cornerstones of the Spanish culinary and cultural experience.
At the wine and pintxo bar, Brown’s menu highlights Spanish bodega classics, with a collection of pintxos and conservas, charcuterie, sandwiches, and small plates. A selection of Spanish wines are available on draft, as well as a large selection available by the glass and bottle, all handpicked by Jessica Salyer, Cúrate Wine Program Manager and Felix Meana.
