The Most Effortlessly Romantic Bars and Restaurants in Brooklyn
Littleneck:
Lobsters mate for life, right? Maybe? That’s something that we’re pretty sure we learned watching Friends while we were in high school, but it stuck, so we’re going with it as being a fact. So then why not get ultra-romantic and eat a lobster roll? Littleneck might be somewhat unassuming as a top romantic restaurant, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a great place to go with someone you love. The food is consistently fresh and delicious, the atmosphere is low-key but charming, and Littleneck serves the only vodka cocktail we’ve ever liked, the Lovelight. Oh! And penguins also mate for life, we think. Penguin isn’t on the menu, of course, so stick with the lobster. And mate for as long as you’re up for it.
