Best Romantic Restaurants in NoMad

Ocean Prime always exceeds my expectation. Love everything about it. Food was amazing as well.

Absolute perfection. My fiancé and I went here after I proposed to her and it was perfect. They made it feel special, comped a champagne toast and dessert, congratulated us. Food was amazing, ambience is perfect, and the staff so friendly. Cannot recommend enough!

Had a wonderful experience at Boucherie. We were seated immediately at a wonderful table with a view of the decorations and the restaurant. The wait staff was very helpful and friendly. The food we ordered was amazing and the prices not astronomical. For the quality of the food and the overall experience it was appropriately priced.

Born and raised in nyc and I can definitely confirm that this restaurant without a doubt is the most authentically romantic place to have a date night in the city. The food was exquisite! Made you want to keep eating even though you’re full. I proposed to my girlfriend here and it was everything I imagined and then some. Through the proposal planning process of how to do it, the staff was almost more excited about it than I was. This restaurant is the personification of a 10 out of 10.

A Timeless Vaulted Escape in NYC For our 12th anniversary, my wife and I wanted a memorable dining experience, and we found it in this hidden gem tucked away in the historic New Yorker Hotel. Housed in what was once an old bank vault, this steakhouse offered more than just a meal; it was an enchanting journey into the past. From the moment we stepped through the doors, the ambiance transported us. My wife, who’s lived her whole life in New York, remarked that the setting made her feel like she wasn’t in the city at all. The design—ornate, elegant, and brimming with old-world charm—evoked a sense of grandeur. It felt like stepping into a 1920s time capsule where every guest seemed important, fancy, and yes, a little bougie. The food was exceptional. I started with the crab cake, which came paired with a vibrant wasacaca sauce—a unique Venezuelan-inspired touch that added a fresh, tangy kick. For my main course, I chose the buttery salmon, which quite literally melted in my mouth. It was perfectly cooked, rich, and flavorful, leaving me savoring every bite. My wife opted for one of their signature steaks, and it was cooked to perfection with just the right balance of char and tenderness. The service was attentive and thoughtful, matching the opulence of the venue. If I had one critique, it would be the lack of non-alcoholic beverage options on the menu. While it wasn’t a dealbreaker, a few curated mocktails or even house-made sodas could have rounded out the experience. Overall, this restaurant made our anniversary truly special. Between the historic setting, the exquisite food, and the impeccable attention to detail, it’s a place we’ll cherish as part of our memories. For anyone looking to escape the city’s hustle and immerse themselves in timeless elegance, this steakhouse is a must-visit.
