Hey guys/gals I wanted to get some ideas of where I can go tonight for an interesting evening. It’s a really good friend of mine’s birthday and I’d like to take her to a nice place for some brownie points, ya know? I’m lookin for ideas of a fun place with maybe a little touch of fanciness. Fun is preferred. Food would also be a nice addition. I’m drawnin almost a total blank here. So far one idea I had was to go to the Funny Bone. Somethin along those lines. Any ideas? Ladies comments especially appreciated in this situation. Thanks! ---

theres a couple of nice places in shadyside on ellsworth st. but its $$$ look into SOBA- nice bar/restaurant, be prepared to spend $150 bills for 2. theres also Enrico’s on Ellsworth st. not that bad. Bikki is off of walnut street, fun and fancy place to eat, drink and get dressed up. My favorite is Girasoles, real good Italian food run by the mob. Its really small and intimate, for dinner then go to the bars in the neighborhood. ---

Thanks for the ideas everyone. She opted for an even better choice… she wanted to hit up the local cruise spot for dinner then back to her place with a bottle of wine, some candles, and a movie. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fun-fancy-place-to-go-this-evening/165417.md?page=2)
