il Buco

The 14 Most Romantic Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"If your ideal romantic meal takes place in an old farmhouse in the Italian countryside, you can come pretty close to experiencing that scenario at Il Buco. A night at this Noho restaurant, which opened as an antique store in 1994, feels like a rustic escape from the city. The mains here really shine, and you can't go wrong with the bistecca and lamb chops, but if you order just one thing, get what might be the best risotto in NYC. Also, don't just order one thing here—that's a terrible idea." - neha talreja, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
