Finding the perfect locale for the perfect Valentine’s Day date can be daunting, but we’re here to lend a hand (it’s okay to ask for help now and then). From brunch to dinner and beyond, take a look through the following Valentine’s Day dinner options for some inspiration.

What To Order on Augie’s Prime Cut’s New Patio Menu
Going 10 years strong, Augie’s adds raw bar, patio menu, and revamps outdoor dining area.

There’s a dearth of fine steakhouse dining in the Northern half of Westchester, and things become even more meager approaching the border with Putnam County. That’s why Augie’s Prime Cut has been so well received since opening in 2009, a carnivore’s oasis in a USDA Prime cut desert.
To complement some aesthetic upgrades to their patio area, Augie’s recently launched a patio menu with New England seafood shack eats, bar bites like nachos, wings, and Buffalo shrimp, plus other American comfort food favorites, and raw bar items. The majority of the new offerings are less than $20 and can be also ordered in the main dining area.
