"Hotel Delmano is one of the best date spots in Williamsburg for a few reasons. Most importantly (at least for this guide), the whole space - multiple dark rooms that feel like they haven’t changed since bow ties were worn unironically - is sit-down-only. Whether you sit inside or at one of the tables on the sidewalk in the summertime, you’ll be able to hear each other without trying to piece together words and context clues, and you can drink some excellent cocktails while sharing things like prosciutto and oysters." - matt tervooren
