Where To Go On A Date Right Now In NYC

"Think of Ernesto’s as the perfect neighborhood spot to drink some interesting wine and make small talk with a date. Although (unlike other neighborhood wine spots), they serve a mountain of potato chips and ham. This Basque spot on East Broadway is open for outdoor dining every day (the restaurant is closed Sunday and Monday, but the cafe is open then), and we especially like pairing a glass of syrah with the gilda skewer with tuna and the delicate potato croqueta. It has a bechamel center that tastes like the lovechild of chicken noodle soup and macaroni and cheese." - nikko duren
