Fun date restaurant in the east bay?

Hey lookin to take my lady friend to a nice restaurant somewhere in the east bay, type of food doesnt really matter just lookin for a good meal. As a kid my family would go to el morroco in pleasent hill and i always thought that its a fun place to go (plus <3 Moroccan food!) but she doesnt like moroccan . Current thoughts are either benihana but it kinda gets old after a while or a steak at a nice steak house. Any other ideas guys???

Steaks there are:
Izzy's in San Ramon
McNamara in Dublin
Ruth Chris in Walnut Creek
Forbes Mill in Danville

But if u want fun, u can go to texas roadhouse and throw peanut shells everywhere

I went to this place in Sunol called Bosco's Bones & Brew Restaurant Saloon for the first time to see a friend of my dad play in his band. They serve pretty good food. Their house dressings aren't bad and they don't over cook their sea food or red meat.

Atmosphere is quaint and they have a little dance floor and a well stocked bar. The music was good and things were pretty lively until 1am or so.

Hey Jake,

Why don't you take her to Piatti's in Danville?

It's a nice Italian-style restaurant, good food, not too expensive. If it's not cold out, or raining, sit out on the patio to heat (they have heater lamps, cool lamps that are strung in the air)

Back when I was with you know who, we would go there.

Hit me up when your in town, we need to chill!
