"Maite is a big corner restaurant that’s a step up in fanciness from most Bushwick neighborhood spots. The food isn’t quite as traditional as other Spanish tapas places - they mix European and Basque flavors and put them into Latin American classics like arepas and empanadas. In the past, we’ve enjoyed the duck egg arepa and some squid ink burrata, but the small plates change all the time, so you can pretty much count on having to get up from your table a few times to look at the chalkboard menu on the wall." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, matt tervooren
