Gorgeous presentations, exquisite flavors, ultra-chic vibes. You'll find it all and then some at The New York Times & Forbes-applauded Emilia By Nai, whose East Village locale merges Spain's sultry vibes with Manhattan energy for a feast that's sure to spark major wanderlust.
Grab your $69 pulse (a $133 value) for a Tapas Dinner For Two that includes 4 Tapas from the spot's drool-worthy menu, as well as 1 Pitcher of Red or White Sangria - that's approximately 6 glasses to carry you through each beautiful dish!
Chef Ruben Rodriguez's 3 beautiful restaurants - including Amigo by Nai & Nai New York - are an ever-evolving love letter to his mother, who he credits for his unwavering culinary skill set and the traditional Galician recipes you'll find on his menus. Emilia is his latest creation, where cuisine and culture are the bases for a truly unforgettable night.
Let the homemade sangria fill you with warmth as you savor the lusty wine & fresh fruit combo, getting lost in the freshness of Oysters and Prime Steak Tartare, not to mention Salchichon Iberica and the Shrimp Croquettes with lemon mayo.
You won't find many places like it, so let your senses experience it all...
An "intimate East Village spot" and "the latest in a collection from the Spanish chef and restaurateur Ruben Rodriguez’s Nai Restaurant Group" according to The New York Times, Emilia By Nai is a fusion or Galician flavors with "a definite Japanese influence" (NY Times).
"Nai," meaning mother in Gallego, is at the heart of the innovative and humbling cuisine by Galician native, Chef Ruben Rodriguez, whose 3 restaurants in the city (Emilia by Nai, Amigo by Nai, Nai New York) showcase his marvelous talent, which brings together the perfect combination of contemporary cuisine & tradition.
Equally praised by Time Out, Emilia By Nai will whisk you away to Spain, where family gathers in the kitchen to cook, talk, and show love by way of food. Expect a focus on seafood and vegetables that nod to Rodriguez's native Galicia, where he cooked in his mother’s restaurant, and alongside his grandmother, Emilia - the name speaks for itself!
An open kitchen lets you peep inside as the team of talented culinary creatives work their magic. Hideaway in Mediterranean-style arched alcoves, or sit at the counter, soaking in the energetic vibe that permeates this simply stunning yet understated East Village treasure.
As you pour lusty Sangria into your glass, swoon as brilliantly presented plates arrived. Think color, freshness, and flavor by way of velvety Duck Paté, as well as the Shiitake Katsu with brioche, garlic aioli, and curried onion. The grilled Octopus is a favorite, sided by potatoes & smoked paprika mayo.
A trip to Spain might not be on the books, but that doesn't mean you can't have a taste of it right here in NYC...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full dinner menu.
