The article explores several romantic dining options in New York City, highlighting restaurants where ambiance and food quality coexist. Noteworthy mentions include a Danny Meyer classic offering diverse dining options, the historic Waverly Inn with its charming old-world character, and the Four Horsemen, a natural wine bar in Williamsburg, praised for its inviting atmosphere. Each venue combines intimate settings with delectable culinary offerings for special occasions, demonstrating that a memorable dining experience encompasses both great food and a cozy environment.
This Danny Meyer classic with chef Michael Anthony at the helm offers two options for dining. There's the more casual tavern with bacon-cheddar biscuits, broccolini salad, a Tavern burger or grilled pork shoulder among mains. And there's the more tailored dining room with its seasonal tasting menu, with dishes like lobster salad, Elysian Fields lamb, and an apple and quince tart.
Waverly Inn seems to look about the same as it would have nearly 200 years ago: a brick townhouse with a wood-framed front porch and mullioned windows, and an interior consisting of a barroom, a pair of dining rooms, and a back porch visible from the sidewalk through a vine-covered iron fence.
There are no bad seats at this Williamsburg natural wine bar: Not at the counter, where it's easier to order another glass of colorful pet-nat. Not in its intimate back dining room, with narrow views of the kitchen. Not even out front, in the outdoor setup that's stood the test of pandemic winters.
