NYC | The Perfect Valentine's Date Spot 🤍🍴

For Valentine’s Day, I made a reservation at Nai in the East Village — and wow, it did not disappoint! 💫 Known for its great value and delicious food, this place totally won me over. Every dish we ordered was a delight! Here’s what we tried 👇 ▫️ Katsu: A must-order! The ribeye was tender and juicy, with a perfectly crispy coating. Paired with bread, it was absolutely heavenly 😋 ▫️ Croqueta: Recommended by our super sweet server! These fried delights were creamy inside with flavorful ham — so tasty! ▫️ Pintxo: This one surprised me! A mini sandwich with a quail egg, sausage, and bread — bursting with flavor and so fun to eat 🥚🥪 ▫️ Fideua: Think Spanish-style seafood pasta — rich, savory, and packed with fresh clams and shrimp. The broth was so aromatic and satisfying 🦐🍝 ▫️ Drinks: We also tried a taro-flavored cocktail (not on the menu!) — creamy, fragrant, and lightly boozy. A hidden gem 💜🍹 The vibe was intimate and cozy, perfect for a romantic dinner 💖 Price-wise, it’s around $50-60 per person (including drinks), which is such a steal for the quality! If you’re looking for a memorable date spot, Nai should definitely be on your list. Just remember to book in advance! 📅 #NYCFood #DateNight #NYCRestaurants #HiddenGems #ValentinesSpot
