The 15 Best First Date Spots In Philly

"Several questions remain regarding the photo of your date doing body shots at a tailgate. (Why would they post this? Are you attracted to the image in an upsetting, dirtbag kind of way?) There's only one way to get answers: a subtle interrogation over mezcal margaritas. Whether you’re inside or outside, the casualness of this South Philly Mexican restaurant will help you get to know someone quickly and without high stakes. The food, like al pastor tacos or some very good shrimp, is all pretty light. So you’ll still have the energy to go dancing, bar hopping, or swipe right on a dating app if the conversation sucks. " - candis mclean
