Lucca
226 Hanover St Boston, MA 02113
(617) 742-9200
When it comes to imparting Italian-style romance Lucca delivers a subtle taste of Tuscany instead of over-the-top Venice. The staff can easily guide you through any menu or wine questions, not that you can go wrong. Start with the classic antipasto, stay away from the tricky-to-eat beef short ribs and call it a night (well, not yet, ahem) with the budino di cioccolate and a couple of espresso martinis. Open Mon 12am-12:15am, 5pm-12:15am; Tue-Sat 5pm-12:15am; Sun 5pm-12am
Eastern Standard
528 Commonwealth Ave Boston, MA 02215
(617) 532-9100
To help minimize awkward moments, now that you’ve finally mustered the courage to meet your date, the staff at this Kenmore Square resto is smooth and efficient, and the surroundings are stylish enough to stare at during silences. Or you can always find a muse on just what be offered as “Today’s Offal.” (Um, we’ll take the steak frites and beer & ice cream float instead, thanks.) Open Mon-Thu,Sun 7am-11pm; Fri-Sat 7am-12am
Kingfish Hall
188 Faneuil Hall Market Pl Boston, MA 02109
(617) 523-8862
Oysters are aphrodisiacs, as is just about everything else at Todd English’s Fanueil Hall seafood extravaganza. Attempting the lobster boil could be messy—but also a great ice-breaker. Otherwise, use you’re a-deux status as an excuse to order the grand shellfish platter. By the time you’ve plowed through the three tiers, you’ll be licking the sauce off each other’s fingers. Open Mon-Thu,Sun 11:30am-3pm, 5pm-10pm; Fri-Sat 11:30am-3pm, 5pm-11pm
Sage
69 Prince St Boston, MA 02113
(617) 248-8814
Happy Endings are not what you think at this South End hangout. They’re the desserts—pistachio panna cotta, apple torta, ricotta zeppole—that punctuate nearly perfect evenings at Tony Susi’s restaurant. With apps all over $10 and entrees up to $34, you’ll be spending a bit more dough on your date (or with, if you’re a Dutch-type) but you’ll get a memorable meal, if nothing else. Open Mon-Sat 5:30pm-10:30pm
