Best Romantic Restaurant

"Gold tiles, beaded curtains, archways, and mosaics - element for element, Spanish fave Dalí is a wonderland, casting a spell on diners that still goes unbroken after 14 years. Virtually windowless, its intimate feel derives not from views but from cozy nooks and candlelight - not to mention the menu itself, tapas being the ultimate couples‚ food. And hey, if tapas like green-lipped mussels with avocado and pork sausage with figs aren‚t
seductive, we don‚t know what it.

Best Spanish/Tapas Restaurant

Dalí has deflowered many a tapas virgin over the years; the little-changed menu keeps all the tools of seduction handy. They can be as simple as patatas ali-oli - essentially a garlicky potato salad - or the classic, frittata-like tortilla española; as playful as the batter-fried nuggets of broccoli and cheese known as buñuelos de verdura; or as intriguingly sophisticated as angulas - baby eels flash-fried in olive oil and garlic. For the restaurant‚s regulars, meanwhile, a handful of monthly changing tapa specials keeps the romance alive.
