What I wrote thereFold it away

A Spanish restaurant and tapas (appetizers) bar, Boqueria is one of the best Upper East Side restaurants near Central Park for date-night. The space is warm and inviting and the food is reminiscent of a classy Barcelona restaurant.

The tapas are tasty and made with fresh, seasonal ingredients so you’ll find yourself wanting to try all of them. Plus, Boqueria has one of the best seafood paellas I’ve ever had (rice, monkfish, squid, shrimp, clams, mussels). And trust me when I say the Nutella churros at Boqueria are one of the best desserts in New York City. 

Worth it

Don’t skip out on the Nutella churros either, ranking among the best desserts in New York City.

Boqueria, a Spanish restaurant and tapas bar, is a top choice for date nights on the Upper East Side. The warm and inviting ambiance complements the classy Barcelona-inspired food. The tasty tapas, crafted with fresh, seasonal ingredients, are irresistible, making it a challenge not to try them all.

Boqueria’s seafood paella, featuring rice, monkfish, squid, shrimp, clams, and mussels, is a standout. Don’t skip out on the Nutella churros either, ranking among the best desserts in New York City.
