Brooklyn Couples Share Their Favorite Date Spots

“Since our baby was born, my wife and I have tried really hard to keep a regular date night, albeit much less often than our freewheeling days as a well-rested duo,” Brizzi says. “When we find the time and a babysitter these days, we usually go to Queen Italian Restaurant on Court St. It’s a super old-school red sauce joint in a room that hasn’t changed since the 60s, with great food, an attentive staff, and real attention to detail.
We also love Mile End Deli. Those guys are like family to us, and always have something new, delicious, and crazy on the dinner menu, along with killer beers you won’t find anywhere else.
And Ganso ramen. It’s great to have such incredible ramen, buns and wings just down the block from us.”
