Clever Rabbit {2015 West Division Street, Chicago; 773.697.8711}
You might not be able to afford a steak dinner for two, but you can certainly shell out for vegetables! An original veggie-centric menu, fun drinks (carrot margaritas anyone?), and an indoor moss wall will get the conversation going at Clever Rabbit.
Folklore {2100 West Division Street, Chicago; 773.292.1600}
For peak romantic atmosphere, head to Folklore after sunset, where they set the mood with a candlelit dinner and authentic Argentinian dishes.
Bites {3313 North Clark Street, Chicago; 773.270.5972}
Play it safe with something a bit more casual at this lively and colorful space. Most menu items like Crab Sliders ($9) and Cookie Dough Chopstix ($5) are designed to be shared, and they offer frequent deals like half-off sushi Sunday’s.
Webster’s Wine Bar {2601 North Milwaukee Ave, Chicago; 773.292.9463}
So, you want to impress them with your classy wine preferences, but you’ve never tried anything but two-buck chuck? Webster’s has you covered with an expertly curated cellar of over 500 bottles to meet any price range. You’ll probably have to spend more than two dollars, but the amazing staff can guide you toward delicious and budget-friendly glasses.

Taco Joint Lincoln Park {1969 North Halsted Street, Chicago; 312.951.2457}
Mexican street food favorites, like Elotes and Carne Asada, in a bright and airy cantina. Prices are so affordable you won’t even think about going Dutch on this bill.
