Whether you',re fielding first-date jitters or crafting anniversary plans, we',ve got you covered for the perfect night out in New York. I Sodi, West Village. There’s something so understated and stylish about this little restaurant on Christopher Street. You can always depend on the simple, classic Italian food—not Italian-American, but Italian from Italy—and super professional waiters. It’s one of those places where you feel transported , like you’re in Milan or something. It’s at once uniquely New York and a total escape from New York. —Adam Rapoport, editor in chief. Dante, West Village. When choosing a date spot, you’re often faced with two choices: Find somewhere that’s cool but packed, or find somewhere more accommodating with mediocre vibes. Dante somehow manages to rise above these choices. The vibe is mellow in a good way (you won’t be screaming over a dude in loafers with his insert-name-of-bank-here gym bag) and the drinks are damn good. Order the on-tap Negroni and maybe some salami (I',m a big proponent of first date charcuterie ). And if you really like the person, head next door to JG Melon for dinner. Sure, it’s not the original JG, but after three Negronis, it’ll do. —Rachel Karten, social media manager. Saraghina, Bed Stuy. Saraghina has been my go-to date spot for first dates, third dates, and three-year anniversaries. It somehow manages to be totally unpretentious and totally romantic at the same time . Start with a white negroni and the fava e cicori —a luscious, Italian answer to hummus—then split a pizza or two. Feel free to linger: you can',t hurry love, after all. —Amanda Shapiro, Healthyish editor. Relais de Venise L',Entrecôte, SoHo. The French chain once found only in Paris and Geneva now has two locations in NYC, but the company',s commitment to serving only steak frites has never wavered. There’s no menu—you just tell the servers how you',d like your steak, which they write on the paper tablecloth, and then they’ll serve you salad, French bread, steak, and French fries. The best part is right when you think you’re done with your steak frites, they come around to serve seconds. The house wine (served by glass, bottle, or half-bottle) is great to share, as are the profiteroles for dessert. It’s a good place to go to feel French and sophisticated , and the price is very affordable—especially if you’re going Dutch. —Elaheh Nozari, e-commerce editor. Ops, Bushwick. There is nothing inherently romantic about Ops, but it’s a great place for a casual date. The food is as tasty-yet-low-key as it comes—it’s pizza ( plus a calzone if you’re smart ). The wine is delicious—a really nice selection of natural wines, presented with enthusiasm but not pretension . A date at Ops is like one of those great nights at home, where you order in and open a bottle of wine and maybe another, except this time someone else does the dishes. —Meryl Rothstein, senior editor. La Grenouille, Midtown. If you and your special someone are out to mark an occasion, there’s no better place than La Grenouille for old-school French-meets-NYC charm . The red velvet banquettes, the mood lighting, the ceiling-high floral arrangements, and the table-side flambé action make it a classic celebratory date spot. —Claire Saffitz, senior food editor. Wildair, Lower East Side. The seats at Wildair aren',t the most comfortable. There are no true two-tops. The lighting isn',t romantic, and yeah, it',s a little loud. But if your modus operandi is picking a date spot that',s just as fun as it is cool, Wildair is the move. Fabian Von Hauske and Jeremiah Stone’s menu of indulgent, perfectly executed small plates should be ordered frequently and with abandon. They',ll invoke just as much conversation as the natural wine list , which in my opinion, is the best (and most reasonably priced) in the city. It’s a vicious and delicious cycle of exploration. Every time I go to Wildair (whether I',m on a date or not), I feel lucky to be there, from the minute I glimpse the fashionable patrons through the window to the last bite of the pork Milanese. —Alex Delany, assistant web editor. Buvette, West Village. Everything about Buvette makes it feel like you’re in Paris. Never is this truer than in the winter, when the (very shareable) coq au vin warms your bones and the chocolate mousse is good enough to make you cry. A heads up: It may not be ideal for a first date, because there',s always a wait and the tables are very, very close together and small. But with someone serious, any seat will do. I like the table at the top of the stairs or at the little counter in the window looking out at the snowy street. —Emma Wartzman, web editorial assistant. Bar Goto, Lower East Side. Ostensibly, Bar Goto is a place to drink and have okonomiyaki, which is a little off-center for a date, but makes a good litmus test: If your partner is awesome enough to want okonomiyaki for date, they’re a keeper . The miso-glazed wings are the best drinking snack in New York and the chips and dip served with spicy cod roe and sour cream are delicious.
