On Thursday, Aventura will begin their month-long residency at the United Palace in Washington Heights. Though they sort of reunited in 2014 when Romeo Santos sold out Yankee Stadium back to back, this will be a full show for the artists formerly known as Los Tinellers.

To mark the occasion and make sure you make the most of your night, we have compiled a list of bomb spots where you can grab a meal or a drink within walking distance of the United Palace venue, so you can plan your whole night right. Here are 10 places you should check out and a playlist below:
