Dark & Romantic Hollywood

[chuckles]

Any recs for dimly lit, low key, romantic restaurants in Hollywood (or West Hollywood) -- especially ones with booths or tucked away niches for privacy. Definitely want to be able to hear my companion without having to yell, and seriously delicious Chow-ish food a major plus. Thanks!

Dan Tanas has two booths that are behind curtains. Dominick's has dark corners outside.

La Boheme comes to mind - very romantic/darkly lit and definitely good for dinner conversation.

second La Boheme, always a good date place. I've had some very good meals at Cafe des Artistes too. Anyone here remember Chianti on Melrose? Now that was a nice dark spot.

[chuckles]

Yes, I went there once. That *was* dark. La Boheme is a bit too theme-y and grand.. was hoping a little more low key? The one time I went to Cafe des Artists it seemed like quite the Hollywood hipster scene but that was at least 5 years ago -- has it mellowed out?

This is the place for that type of ambiance. Food is pretty good, not exactly chow-ish, though.
