"Have you ever dreamed about eating ceviche at 3am in the morning? Okay, maybe not, but at Gallego Seafood which has locations in Inwood and the Bronx, you can. The casual, fluorescently-lit restaurant is open 24 hours, has a few tables occupied by regulars, and a long buffet that’s half hot bar, and half tubs of ceviche. Get whatever looks good from the hot bar—there’s shrimp in a creamy white sauce, but also carne guisada, and a yellow rice dish full of every meat imaginable. Plus the mixed ceviche, which has white fish, octopus, and shrimp in it. Whether you come at 2pm or stumble in at 2am, you’re going to encounter a casually impressive seafood spread." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
