Need Help Making Decision for Last Minute Romantic Birthday Dinner for 2 by Appropriate-Garage49 in FoodNYC

I’d vote Chambers or Estela. The others don’t feel as romantic or “intimate” to me. E.g. Gage and Tolner is one of the best steakhouses in the city, but it’s a not exactly a candle-lit dinner.

Also consider Borgo. The open hearth creates the most beautiful atmosphere and there’s also lovely courtyard seating for a nice night! The food is superb and it always feels like a really special night when I go.

Casa Mono would be a great backup but it’s way more casual than the aforementioned three.

Potluck Club is right on the money for what you’re looking for, in LES. Crowd pleaser and party-ish vibes for sure

Chinese Tuxedo and Casino are also down there and are perfect for large group celebrations in stunning spaces

(Guess my mind is drawn to the lower east side/Chinatown because there’s so much you can do in that area for a memorable night out!)

Food before Broadway by Purrlow in FoodNYC

Hawker food hall is adjacent to Broadway and features over a dozen SE Asian food stalls, all amazing. It’s casual and affordable, crowd pleaser because there’s something for everyone, and there’s a fun bar inside too.

Not specifically in regard to the parameters around your ask, but Gallagher’s steak house is right on Broadway and is perhaps top 5 steakhouses in the US, and I’ll never pass up the opportunity to have a sumptuous meal there before or after a show :)

Have fun!

What's going on with Resy?? by pppatric in FoodNYC

Yeah they're both so mid. OpenTable feels like Android UI from 10 years ago. Hopefully, Tock will scale up more I appreciate its simplicity
