If you've got Latin American on the mind, a recent opening is need-to-know. Called Bodega Bar, the new addition is located at 1223 Walnut St. in Washington Square.

Bodega Bar specializes in "tequila-based cocktails and a inventive, hard-to-categorize food menu," according to Philly Eater. The menu features pretzel-crusted fried chicken and waffles, Cuban-style burgers and plant-based "ribs" made out of squash. Look for the Pinalita cocktail with roasted pineapple tequila, agave syrup, Mandarine Liqueur, lime and bitters.

Bodega Bar has already attracted fans thus far, with a five-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp.

And Imri Jonas M. wrote, "The fried chicken bánh mì is tasty, along with its house margarita. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere is magical. When it gets late, the DJ plays deep and laid back world house music, which sets the vibe just right."

Yelper Erica E. added, “The atmosphere is seductively comforting. The food was delicious and very creative. The warm and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The drink menu featured a variety of artisan drinks, I but was in the mood for wine."

Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: Bodega Bar is open from 11 a.m.–2 a.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m.–2 a.m. on weekends.
