First date dining can be a conundrum; do you go for full-on romance or a more chilled and relaxed vibe? Three courses or champagne and appetizers? Rustic Italian seafood restaurant, Pescatori, offers both and in a dining atmosphere that meets perfectly in-between all-out romantic and relaxed and informal, making it perfect for a first date. Located down a quiet street a short walk from Goodge Street station, Pescatori is a semi-fine dining restaurant where couples and small groups of friends go to escape the Friday after work crowds that spill on to the streets, even more so on an unseasonably warm January afternoon. Upon entering Pescatori dinners are warmly welcomed, their coats hanged and swiftly seated. The ambiance is pitch perfect for a first date; lights dimmed - but not too low. There is a rustic romantic feel as opposed to full-on formal. There’s wooden floors, pebbled walls and the kitchen staff can be seen flurrying about at the back of the room. Try and book a curved booth, which is spacious and comfortable, and will give you the freedom to talk without being heard by an adjacent table

Conversations can be difficult to start on your first date. People often get so nervous they fear saying something silly, something offensive or find themselves too busy thinking of something to say and end up in awkward moments of silence.

It’s often very easy to have some pre-planned questions in your mind and start firing them at your date one after the other. However, try and allow the conversation to flow naturally; try not to ask too much in a systematic way. Your date needs to be fun and light hearted, not like an interrogation or job interview.
