Best Romantic Restaurants in Ravenswood

I celebrated my birthday at Ocean Prime recently and this restaurant did not disappoint. I was accommodated to a private dinning room which was stunning and intimate perfect for a night out. The staff were very welcoming, attentive, and the waitress Bridgette was amazing at giving recommendations. I’d like to say these are some must the Ahi Tuna Tartare, the blackened snapper, and the sea scallops. For dessert the butter cake is a must, it’s so rich and moist and pairs well with the ice cream and berries. Overall it was a birthday dinner well spent.

Highly, highly recommend this restaurant for a romantic evening out in NYC. My fiancé & I were celebrating our engagement & the staff was so gracious & kind in helping us make this an unforgettable evening. Food & service are impeccable combined with the ambiance & atmosphere (the Christmas decor is absolutely beautiful!). Also is pretty cool that Aaron Burr once lived here!

Walking into Boucheries feels like stepping into a hidden corner of Paris. A intimate and relaxed atmosphere really set the mood for savoring the classic French dishes they offer. We started with the escargot, which was buttery and perfectly seasoned, and moved on to the rich and tender beef bourguignon. The wine pairing recommendation was to die for. If you're in the mood for fine French dining in the West Village, this is the place.

We had an amazing dinner experience last night. Our waitress Kathy, from Venezuela, was one of the best parts of our evening. She was in tuned to our needs, knowledge of the menu and drinks, and very charismatic. Our meal was delicious, I got the spaghetti and the addition of baratta cheese was fantastic. The atmosphere was the icing on the cake. I felt like we were in some far away land. The twinkle lights, the trees, it was magical.

The dinner was spectacular in every way. Hygge in New York! The atmosphere was cozy, congenial and filled with Christmas cheer. Flowers and soft candle light everywhere. The punterelle salad was perfectly dressed with ample anchovies, the sea bream en papillote was tender and infused with deep flavor. Add a perfectly balanced negroni sbagliatto to start and the evening was perfect.
