Plan a romantic evening at one of these romantic restaurants in Delhi NCR so bae cannot complain.
1. Qla
Did someone say romantic? A square courtyard surrounded by designer boutiques, greenery and the opulence of Qla’s indoor seating sits humbly under the glimmering night sky. We’d sit humbly too if the upstairs neighbour was hosting Qutub Minar. Their duck salad is the best in town. We love a place that gets the basics right and this place sure does a mean pasta. If you just want great food and some privacy, this is the one for you on Valentine’s Day.
