Valentine’s Day may be every day in our book, but that doesn’t mean we’re not eagerly counting down to the occasion – as should you. After restocking your lingerie drawer (with Fleur, of course), and getting all primped and primed, there should be only one thing left on your romantic agenda: getting wined, dined, and lavishly indulged, ideally somewhere with some love in the air and a vibe that’ll put you in the mood. Whether you’re set on planning on the perfect date night or want to nudge your partner in the right reservation direction, look no further. You won’t be disappointed in any of these NYC hot spots complete with Cupid-approved atmospheres, tantalizing entrées, and stylish scenes worth showing off at. Hey, they don’t call ‘em “hot” for no reason.
Chez Fifi
If ‘Uptown Girl’ starts playing in the minds of your admirers every time you walk into a room, you’ll be set to snag a table at Chez Fifi. Tucked into an elegant townhouse, the just-debuted boite is the epitome of Upper East Side class combined with sensual French sensibilities. Think: Dark wood paneling, high-back booths, and plenty of gilded accents. After indulging in a banquet straight out of a gourmand’s daydream, continue your romantic dalliance upstairs at the petite salon, where you can smolder over the rim of your glass and take your nightcap up a notch.
Chez Fifi, 140 E 74th St, New York, NY 10021

Le Veau d'Or
If you’re of a somewhat more Parisian persuasion, prepare to don your finest Fleur for a très French feast full of aphrodisiacs at Le Veau d'Or. The reborn bistro brings you back in time with its charming checkered tablecloths and cherry-red banquettes, but don’t be fooled – a table at this petite eatery is as coveted as they come among the city’s most fashionable foodies of today. After all, the original haunt was once frequented by the likes of Jackie O. and Marlene Dietrich, earning it a chic reputation worthy of a chic night out.

Aqua
You don’t need to fly private to feel like a jet-setter at Aqua, the international import that recently landed in the Flatiron District. Setting a spectacularly swanky scene worthy of its crowd of haute high-rollers, the sprawling destination serves up fusion food at its finest, with two menus that take you from Tokyo to Rome, no passport required. Hey, if you and your V-Day date can’t decide between Japanese and Italian, why not both? Just don’t forget to leave room for each other for dessert. Now that’s really what we call getting the best of both worlds.
Aqua, 902 Broadway, New York, NY
Clemente Bar
Eleven Madison Park? Legendary, yes, but if you’ve been there, eaten that, take your date upstairs to the iconic restaurant’s new hidden hideout, Clemente Bar. Part cocktail lounge, part chef’s counter, and 100 percent posh vibes, the hybrid haunt is your answer if you’re in the market for an elegant evening that feels like the best of old New York. A pair of lovers with their limbs entwined adorn the mural over the golden-lit bar; use them as your guide while you cozy up on one of the striped sofas to sip saffron-spiced martinis and espresso floats, getting lost in each other’s eyes – and whispering about what you’ll be getting up to later.

Sip & Guzzle
Subtly suggestive name aside, Sip & Guzzle serves as the sexiest little lair for after-dark delights. The bi-level speakeasy is split up into two equally inviting concepts: a warm brick-walled pub upstairs, a moody wood-and-leather-lined cocktail den down below. Whether you choose to guzzle down some comfort classics made with distinctly American flair, or sip on more refined bespoke creations inspired by Japanese cocktail culture, we promise you’ll find the experience so nice…you’ll want to come (back) twice.
Sip & Guzzle, 29 Cornelia St, New York, NY
