what is your opinion on the best first date restaurant in Dallas - uptown or downtown area?

Soemthing swanky, and not a prom/anniversary feeling.

Hole In The Wall-on Harry Hines.

The Grape, Terrellis, although my personal favorite for first dates is Dave and Busters.

Actually, I think Dave and Buster's would be a great second date...first one (in my experience) is full of expectations, being proper, etc....as a second date, it'd be a lot of fun.

For the first date, might I suggest Cuba Libre...good food, upbeat, and great drinks

As a third date, a picnic at one of our parks...bonus points if you make the meal yourself

2900 - nice but not too expensive. you can walk across the street to tabc after dinner if things are going well.

Coach's Night
Hole in the Wall is a cool place too. I have first date experience there myself.

if you want something nice but not too pricey, every girl i know loves La Duni. particularly the desserts. it's a classy place without being "omg we're on a first date".

oooooh, La Duni is good

2900 is an excellent suggestion....really small, so it's a really intimate setting. and the food is always good.

Jar,

I guess I get straight to the point that is why I prefer D&B as a first date to try and get through all the "uncertainty" and "doubt" right off the bad. If she can't feel comfortable trying to kick my ass in skeet ball we're not going to get too far. Unless she is really hot!

Terrelli's is a good idea.

Good ideas. May take my wife to 2900. We need another date night. She will like wearing the little red dress (I don't mind it either.) What is the dress like for men? Coat and tie or maybe just coat?

What is the dress like at La Duni for a Saturday or Sunday brunch?

Actually for a first date, maybe both of you should eat raw oysters!

Definitely not Maggiano's or any chain.

N9NE in Victory Plaza or Dragonfly at ZaZa for swanky.

I actually prefer Cremona or St. Martin's.

For Italian, try Adelmo's on Cole, right off of Knox. Ask for a table upstairs. Try the lasagna. Thank me later.

Take her to St. Martins and ask for "the table".

Maestro is correct. 2900 then head to Thomas Avenue Beverage Company ("TABC" for after dinner refreshments

Taverna off of Cole.

fireside pies or traverna

Another vote for terilli's.

I ate at Stephen Pyles this weekend...pretty good.

Frankly, I think Terelli's is a horrible idea. If they have live Jazz going, which they usually do, then you will have to yell at each other to be heard.

Most of the other ideas on here are good.

Breadwinners?

My vote is for Abacus or Hectors on Henderson. Do the Knox Henderson area so if it goes well you can walk over to a bar.

Coal Vines across from the Crescent. Brick oven NY style pizza and wine bar. Nice Uptown style crowd, reasonably priced for a first date.
