Eating at The Grotto feels like dining inside of a candlelit cubby—you’ll snack on good Italian, French, and American dishes in a room that’s too dark for photos. Come on a rainy weekday with someone you want to make out with, order the rucola salad with arugula and melty prosciutto, some good brick chicken, a plate of spaghetti, and fruity panna cotta for dessert. The garlic soup is also creamy and decadent, just make sure it doesn’t get in the way of that makeout.

Roxanne’s is a nice cocktail spot in Beacon Hill that's great for a sexy night next to some palm fronds and a giant portrait of Debbie Harry.
