The Radio Hotel sits just 20 minutes from Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Radio Restaurant features family-style meals, craft cocktails, and even a boozy brunch experience \u2013 it\u2019s their take on new American cuisines with a Latin twist!<\/p>\n<p>I sit down for dinner in an intimate, dimly lit setting. As I walk into the dining room, I am greeted by friendly staff, and to my left, the DJ booth stands ready to start up my day or energize my night.<\/p>\n<p>While sipping on my prosecco, I taste an array of dishes, and let\u2019s just say I am more than satisfied!\n<\/p>\n<p>We start with the greens: guacamole and chips and the little gem Caesar, and for a salad, it sure is a gem. Hedges of romaine, juicy grilled chicken, avocado, and Caesar dressing. This Caesar salad is definitely one of the favorites I have had from a restaurant.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137840554\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137840554 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137840554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/76A4272-1.jpg\" alt=\"Radio Restaurant's Little Gem Caesar Salad.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"Washington Heights\u2019 Radio Restaurant offers a flavorful stop just minutes from Yankee Stadium 2\"  \/><\/a>Radio Restaurant\u2019s Little Gem Caesar Salad.Photo courtesy of Radio Restaurant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137840555\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137840555 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137840555\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_2685.jpg\" alt=\"Radio Restaurant's Empanadas.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"Washington Heights\u2019 Radio Restaurant offers a flavorful stop just minutes from Yankee Stadium 3\"  \/><\/a>Radio Restaurant\u2019s Empanadas.Photo courtesy of Radio Restaurant<\/p>\n<p>We move on to the shareable dishes: Latin classics like empanadas and chicharron de pollo, and a Radio Restaurant original\u2014radio wings, served in smoky guava BBQ sauce (which actually turns out to be my least favorite of the three).<\/p>\n<p>The main dishes I try are the mojo \u201cmedia pollo\u201d (half chicken, mashed potatoes, broccolini), churrasco steak frites (marinated steak and chimichurri fries), vodka rigatoni, and radio fried rice or \u201cchofan.\u201d My favorite has to be the churrasco steak frites; you can\u2019t go wrong with steak and fries, and the housemade chimichurri definitely elevates the tasting experience.<\/p>\n<p>We close out our tasting experience with two desserts: a mango-passion fruit tart and a warm chocolate brownie served with dulce de leche ice cream. A must-try for our \u201csomething sweet\u201d foodies, but an easy skip for those who don\u2019t have a sweet tooth.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137840556\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137840556 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137840556\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/76A4310-1.jpg\" alt=\"Radio Restaurant's Chicken &amp; Waffles.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"Washington Heights\u2019 Radio Restaurant offers a flavorful stop just minutes from Yankee Stadium 4\"  \/><\/a>Radio Restaurant\u2019s Chicken &amp; Waffles.Photo courtesy of Radio Restaurant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amny.com\/?attachment_id=137840557\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-137840557 nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-137840557\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/iStock-184338592.jpg\" alt=\"Grilled cheese sandwich at Radio Restaurant.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"Washington Heights\u2019 Radio Restaurant offers a flavorful stop just minutes from Yankee Stadium 5\"  \/><\/a>Grilled cheese sandwich at Radio Restaurant.Photo courtesy of Radio Restaurant<\/p>\n<p>If you have the chance to visit the Radio Restaurant, I say start with the Caesar salad, split the chicharron de pollo and the empanadas, and try their churrasco steak frites. You also have to check out their bathroom\u2014outside, there\u2019s a Washington Heights mural that\u2019s photo-op ready, and inside, a bathroom that\u2019s selfie-ready. The colors are wild in there.<\/p>\n<p>To elevate your MLB experience, if you are thinking of staying at the Radio Hotel, they offer a \u201ctake me out to the ballgame\u201d package, which includes a branded clear fanny pack, game day popcorn, and a bucket of beers at check-in for a true home run stay!<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to check out the Radio Restaurant in the Radio Hotel, only in Washington Heights.\n<\/p>\n<p>@radio.restaurant on Instagram for any updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Radio Restaurant is nearby Yankee Stadium, making it an ideal place to grab a bite before the game.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179773,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,1070,21189,9,24,63,72616,129,131,130,2958],"class_list":["post-179772","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-food","tag-food-review","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-radio-restaurant","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news","tag-washington-heights"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179772"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179772\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
