The Best First Date Spots In NYC

"Leyenda makes some of the best cocktails in Brooklyn, so their mezcal, tequila, and cachaça-based drinks are reason enough to come to this Cobble Hill bar. But this place also serves some very good Latin food like al pastor tacos and enchiladas topped with thick mole. All of the above is best enjoyed on the small patio out back that’s quiet enough for you to hear all about your date's Netflix watch history." - will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja
