what is the most romantic restaurant in new york city?

Answer 1

1) Savoy

This warmly lit restaurant feels more like a country inn -- complete with a roaring fire in the colder months. Dine on fine American cuisine and if you'd really like to impress, reserve for the chef's special menu. 70 Prince St. Between Crosby and Lafayette Sts. 212-219-8570

2) The Place

This West Village restaurant offers all of the romance of New York's finest, but with a more affordable price tag. 310 W. 4th St. Between Bank and W. 12th Sts. 212-924-2711

3) Gramercy Tavern

Danny Meyer's restaurants are reknowned for impeccable service, and Gramercy Tavern is no different. Serving creative American fare, Gramercy Tavern is the perfect place for a perfect meal, from start to finish. Reservations suggested, though the tavern area has reduced prices and a no-reservation policy. 42 E. 20th St. Between Broadway and Park Ave. So. 212-477-0777

4) Union Square Cafe

Another Danny Meyer destination, Union Square Cafe offers great service and delicious fare in a comfortable setting. Union Square Cafe is friendly to vegetarians. Reservations suggested, though the bar area offers you an in without a reservation. 21 E. 16th St. Between Fifth Ave. and Union Sq. West 212-243-4020

5) One If By Land, Two If By Sea

Often considered the most romantic restaurant in New York City, One if By Land, TIBS is housed in a former carriage house that features nightly live piano music and working fireplaces. Exposed brick and dim lighting make this a great destination for a romantic evening. 17 Barrow St. (bet. 7th Ave. S. & W. 4th St.) [phone]

6) Blue Hill

With an annual Valentine's Day tradition of serving a "hands-free" meal, Blue Hill offers an off-beat take on your typical romantic evening. Serving American cuisine, Blue Hill builds a menu focused on seasonally available produce from the Hudson Valley. 75 Washington Pl. Between Sixth Ave. and MacDougal St. 212-539-1776.

7) The River Cafe

If it's the perfect view that makes you feel romantic, you can do no better than The River Cafe on Brooklyn's waterfront. Featuring delicious food combined with professional, attentive service, The River Cafe is well worth leaving Manhattan for the food alone, but the view of downtown Manhattan makes this an irresistable choice. 1 Water Street, Brooklyn 718-522-5200.

8) Daniel

If you really want to dazzle your date, Daniel is among New York City's most impressive restaurants, with prices to match. Decor reflects Daniel Boulud's appreciation for Italian Renaissance design, but the menu features creative French cuisine. 3 Course Prix-Fixe $88. 60 E. 65th St. Between Park and Madison Aves. 212-288-0033

9) The Sea Grill

Overlooking the ice rink at Rockefeller Center, The Sea Grill is a great choice for a romantic evening, assuming your date likes seafood. From oysters and clams to herb crusted skate, the menu offerings reflect a range of seafood options all well prepared and very fresh. 19 W. 49th St. Between Fifth and Sixth Aves. 212-332-7610

10) Balthazar

I must admit, I'm a bit prejudiced, since Balthazar is where I went for dinner after I got engaged, but if being transported to a bustling Parisian bistro is your idea of romance, this is the perfect destination. Steak frites are fabulous, as is the onion goat cheese tart. 80 Spring St. Between Crosby & Broadway. 212-965-1785

Answer 2

If your date likes french food, nowhere else is better than Balthazar. It is very high end and your date will, hopefully, repay the favor seeing as its 100 dollars a plate. Hope this helped. Also, many restuarants in SoHo are romantic and high class. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Daniel is the best meal I had in NYC and very romantic.

P.S. Wendy's is more romantic than Burger King! And better burgers.

Answer 4

Burger King
