Beebe’s

Where: 38-28 27th St, Long Island City

What it’s about: Located in the Boro hotel, Beebe’s is a great spot if you’re looking to keep the tone of your night casual but still get a great bite.

Get your date a good burger in this bright, minimalist, boutique-y environment.

Legacy Records

Where: 517 W 38th St, Hell’s Kitchen

What it’s about: Legacy Records is best if you’re trying to make your date feel particularly spoiled. Their glossy interior and swanky furniture will make you feel like you have a lavish lifestyle. Serving Mediterranean-inspired food in the heart of Hell’s Kitchen, Legacy’s menu features rich dishes like charcoal grilled pigeon, wood grilled octopus and honey lacquered duck for two.

The Springs

Where: 224 Franklin St., Greenpoint

What it’s about: This place is Palm Springs themed, complete with mini umbrellas sticking out of brightly colored drinks. For a summery night with fruity booze to match, take your date to Greenpoint’s newest Floridian bar and restaurant. If you’re looking for just small bites, bright colors, and seasonally appropriate flavors, head to The Springs for a mini getaway.

Bowl and Blade

Where: 169 5th Ave., Park Slope

What it’s about: The many-Michelin-winning Junoon chef Akshay Bhardwaj is only 24 years old, but he already runs two major restaurants. He began running the sleek Indian joint Junoon without a hitch in 2016 after apprenticing there under its original chef. Now, just two years later, the Indian-focused chef has opened Bowl and Blade in Park Slope expanding into Korean-inspired food. Customizable poke bowls and Korean barbeque are the staples of this eclectic menu. If your date likes options and the ability to customize-- plus a good story about a young, thriving entrepreneur – head to this cultural crossroad.

ATOMIX

Where: 104 E 30th St., NoMad

What it’s about: “Ato” is rooted in the ancient Korean word for “gift”-- something that these chefs have inside them. Run by a married couple, ATOMIX is bound to be a success following in the footsteps of its immensely popular sister restaurant, Atoboy. For a more elegant experience of all your favorite Korean street food flavors, take your date to the Michelin-starred chef’s sleek new place in NoMad. The three-course prix fixe menu will take stress out of ordering, too.
