New York Taste Diary | Nai Spanish Restaurant in the East Village

I recently discovered a hidden gem of a Spanish tapas restaurant in the East Village of New York — Nai! ✨ 📍 Nai (84 2nd Avenue, New York, NY 10003) This place is so amazing that I wanted to share it quietly, but it’s just too good to keep to myself! 🥹💥 The best part is that it’s super easy to book a table! In New York, where there are so many restaurants, finding one with such high standards that doesn’t require a mad dash for reservations is like finding a treasure! 💎 💡 Top 4 Must-Try Dishes: 🥢 Portobello Carpaccio: Refreshing and delicate, with a gentle “magic” of mushrooms. 🌿 🥢 Fideuà: Similar to Spanish seafood paella but made with noodles. It’s incredibly fragrant and a total surprise! The star of the night! 🔥✨ 🥢 Grilled Octopus: Crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside. A must for octopus lovers! 🫖🧡 🥢 Garlic Shrimp: Rich in garlic flavor, smooth and not greasy, perfect with bread! 🍤 🍷 The flavors are bold but not overly salty, and you’ll want to keep asking for more! The service is a bit slow, but the atmosphere is very chill, making it perfect for dates or casual gatherings with friends. 📌 If you’re looking for a Spanish restaurant that won’t disappoint and offers something new, you should definitely add Nai to your list! #NewYorkFood #EastVillageRestaurant #SpanishCuisine #TapasLovers #NYCExploration
