What does it take? Candle light? Violins? A lobster bib? What???

It takes a waiter-tress who asks about my drink being filled before they just take the initative to fill it--sometimes I want something else next

the order should be taken soon and I shouldn't be kept waiting

a friendly "is everything ok" twice during the meal

dont make me wait for the check--when Im done I want to leave-pronto

act like Im the center of the universe

Im a damned good tipper so Im not being too outrageous here

beef candles and wine. The beef portions hardly matter, just as long as its tasty

WARM bread served before the actual dinner...
and PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE don't let me do anything
"embarrassing"...ah, a perfect evening...


Ice, sounds like a legit question, but why is it
that i can't answer your questions seriously???

Because I am usually making a joke?

Good food, good wine and good service.

That about sums it up.

Phood...

Ambiance is more important than food ... for me ...

I love places with "atmosphere" ...

I love places where u can converse and enjoy others' company ...

good question ice... I have noticed ... as men get older ... they seem to focus more on their tastebuds ... just an observation ... not callin u old or nothin...

Quickly getting the food to me.
Being eyed up by the waiters
Being handed a warm lemon smelling towel in a bag at the end

A nice atmosphere... usually a very dark place with subtle lighting. Good company and a waiter/waitress that does not have a problem getting you anything you want.

But... I'm not really into fine dining all that much, so what do I know?

I want to have both the lobster and the cracked crab and have my waiter tell me...


"Extra primo good ma'am..."

The local Burger King usually seems to nail it .

I need a value meal supersized served nice and warm from the microwave. I also prefer my restaraunts to have a kiddy park and I need the toys with the children meals to be quality and impressive.

Don't forget the tube slides out front and the ball jump thing...that just screams "classy"...

I'm not too much into fine dining, I'm happy with just going to get a pizza.

On Valentines the White Castle by my house has a special where when you walk in the tables all have tablecloths and candles on them. You sit down and a waiter dressed in a tuxedo comes and takes your order. It's hilarious.

The only problem is that you have to order this shit on the White Castle menu and I swear that White Castle has the grossest food on the face of the Earth.

Trust me you score big points if you bring your lover to a candlelit Valentines dinner at White Castle You will be getting laid that night for certain.

Seriously, tho...

All it takes is:

A relaxed, casual atmosphere...

Dress well, but not dressed-up...wearing a suit and tie while eating is too restricting...

Beautiful and artistically presented food...lots of color and lots of choices displayed before me...with flowers nearby...

Soft lighting...maybe even softer music barely audible...

An amazing view...

The perfect company with which to share my thoughts, as well as to comfortably share the silence...

Solitude...

Not if you actually eat the stuff...their burgers aren't called "rectum rockets" for nothing...

The atmosphere must be just perfect.

Tablecloth, candles, fine china, crystal, and very little noise. Noise from nature however is very welcome, like the sound of the shore, or of breezes rustling through the trees. It must be near a window, overlooking nature.

A corner of the room, and 5 courses. Port wine, crisp salad, crusty bread and butter, a cup of soup, a plate of grilled veges (lol), and a rich dessert of chocolate souffle and a sprinkle of nutmeg in vanilla cream, to top it off.

Seafood and of course a Fine Lady!
