Massive decks and skyline views have their charms, but for a truly romantic meal en plein air, nothing beats the secret-garden feel of the lantern-lit patio at Hamersley’s. Chef Gordon Hamersley’s pâtes, asparagus with chopped egg and truffle vinaigrette, and legendary roast chicken taste even better at a table for two tucked just far enough from the bustle of Tremont Street.
