Date Night, Upgraded: The Best NYC Spots Right Now

Flirty, fun & foolproof—date night recs you’ll actually love

Hey friends,

Date night research continues (tough job, I know). Recently, I checked out The Golden Swan in the West Village—dark wood, velvet booths, and the perfect ambiance for a flirty evening. And if you haven’t had the pasta at Cafe Spaghetti in Brooklyn yet, consider this your sign. Also, reminder: confidence is your best accessory. No overthinking, just enjoy.

Feeling like your dating game needs a boost? Sometimes, a little guidance goes a long way.

Your Ideal NYC Weekend: Date Edition

Friday Night:
Kick things off at Little Ways in SoHo—buzzy, chic, and ideal for a cocktail (or two). Then, make your way to Forsythia on the LES for handmade pasta in a cozy, candlelit setting.

Saturday:
Hit Lilia in Williamsburg for next-level Italian (if you can snag a rez, you win). If you're keeping the night going, head to Maison Premiere for oysters and absinthe.

Sunday:
Brunch at Buvette in the West Village for French vibes and the dreamiest croque madame. Then, take a stroll through Washington Square Park and end with an espresso martini at American Bar.
