14. Water’s Edge
For those of you more interested in a classic celebration at a restaurant with great food and fine wine, Water’s Edge that’s up next in our list of romantic anniversary ideas in NYC is going to be a great place for you. It’s known for hosting wedding receptions, bar mitzvahs, and galas, so you know it’s pretty high class. It’s located on the East River in Long Island City, Queens, so you’ll get to enjoy the beautiful city skyline while you dine. If you want to arrive in style, there’s a ferry ride that goes straight into the restaurant’s private dock.
