First and foremost...be YOURSELF! Don't try to impress your date with behaviors you think he/she would like to see...any astute and decent person will be able to see through your behaviors and will probably not want to go out with you again. Trust me, I have been on many dates where I acted like I thought the person wanted me to act...wash outs from the word go. I acted entirely like the genuine Auntie Barbara over 7 years ago when I first went out with Bill...we are happily together now paying off our first house and hopefully moving to the Pac Northwest for our retirement in a few years!
We went out the first time to a lovely Chinese buffet. No, we didn't spend the whole evening eating everything. We each ended up having only two plates each of delicious veggies and for him...seafood. The buffets allow a more relaxed atmosphere where the persons on a date can take their time in enjoying their meal and spending quality time talking to and getting to know each other. We spent 3 hours at the buffet. By that time we were comfortable with one another enough that I showed him my artwork at my apartment. Now, this is not something I would recommend normally but I just got a good "gut" feeling about him then. At my apartment he stayed an hour looking at my paintings after my many cats hung all over him. I knew he was a "keeper" after seeing the way my cats loved all over him. Animals have a very keen sense of good character...they will let you know.
L.A. county? I would say maybe hit a museum first and then a buffet. I remember a wonderful science museum there years ago that I loved to vist. You could both go to an art or science museum...there you will see if your friend appreciates art and has a good mind. Afterwards you could go to a buffet and relax. Then for your second date you could maybe go on a picnic at one of the excellent parks and bring along your dog (if you have one) to really scope out your friend.
Good luck. I wish you the very best. Let me know how things turn out, dear!

The Lobster in Santa Monica is an awesome place for a first date. Go at sunset.

take him or her to a romantic diner then go out to a club or a party and dance and have a good time then walk him or her home and reach over (if it's a girl and say) i had a great time a kiss her on the hand. (if it is a guy then,,,) reach over kiss him on the cheek and smile and turn away and walk slowly down the sidewalk then text messeage him and say i miss you already and that would be a perfect first date
