Go see "The Fly in the Fridge" brunch theatre @ Smoke! Fantastic show with a three course brunch for $20, can't beat it. Great way to spend a Sunday morning.
No cover; and the 3-course dinner w/jazz show at the bar is $29! A great deal! Haven't seen a bad show there yet!
Once you get a reservation, you’ll be treated to a fun and interesting dining experience. Get a custom cocktail and then have the ‘Special Blend’ Burger or the Delmonico Steak!
This spot takes the drinks-and-a-cut concept to the next level, w/ a 2-seat barber shop up front & behind a sliding door, a cocktail lounge decked w/ leather-cushioned wooden booths & old-school sofas Mehr erfahren.
Not yet the best Spanish restaurant in Manhattan, but the biggest, most comfortable, *good* one by a mile. The kale salad's great, as are the small plates. Avoid the weak appetizers. Mehr erfahren.
Amazing atmosphere (especially when then windows are open) to enjoy wine, scrumptious tapas, hot music and Flamenco dancers (Tuesdays).
Restaurant, oyster bar, and cocktails with a local bent and an eye for steampunk design.
Excellent, inventive cocktails and small plates from mad food scientist Wylie Dufresne. Come for a nibble or stay for a DIY tasting menu.
A step inside reveals a cozy and comfortable environment that is perfect for a romantic date. We recommend the Gnocchi with truffle sauce or the Caprese Mozzarella.
A truly amazing and romantic Italian restaurant - especially if you sit in the wine cellar.
The original location of Masatoshi “Gari” Sugio's chainlet is still one of the best sushi restaurants in NYC. Start with an omakase tasting, finish with the tempura-fried ice cream. [Eater 38 Member]
Travel back to old Russia with Mari Vanna's elegant décor, traditional Russian food, and smiling staff. Try their infused vodka and herring with scallions. The combination is divine.
Frank Decarlo's countryside Italian restaurant has long been a staple on the first-date circuit. The room is warm and the food, mostly cooked in clay pots, impossibly comforting. [Eater 38 Member] Mehr erfahren.
For those looking to treat themselves, there is a lunch omakase created by the chef for $175, which includes three appetizers, five flights of sushi, dessert and tea. Mehr erfahren.
One of the best Japanese restaurants outside of Japan. Ask for any special sushi/sashimi options of the menu -- they may have something very nice. Also the Ohmi beef is amazing (but $) nocheap :))
French-leaning small plates can be cobbled together to compose an excellent & affordable meal here. Try the classic croque madame ($10) or the brandade ($9), a pot of featherlight whipped salt cod. Mehr erfahren.
The owners of Raines Law Room created a new speakeasy twice the size, with reservations, with many French themed rooms. It's still the perfect date spot, but just bright enough to go with friends.
Cute little place (only 20 seats or so) with live jazz. About $12 for cocktails, which weren't bad. Go for the atmosphere, which is awesome. Great date place!
Executive chef Koji Nakan cooks some of the most refined Japanese food in the city, taking humble izakaya dishes and turning them into something you won't mind shelling out serious cash for. Mehr erfahren.
