Valentine's Scalpers and Specials

It’s not too late to score a V-Day table at the River Cafe, one of the most romantic restaurants in the borough… as long as you don’t mind dropping an extra $40. One crafty Craigslister booked a few tables for two under fake names, and now he’s selling the reservations — or rather, the fake names that the reservations are listed under — online. (Looks like the 6:30 and 9:15 seatings are still available.) But be warned — their four-course Valentine’s menu is a whopping $185 per person.
Looking for a cheaper date? Head over to Myrtle Avenue and its nearby streets, where the shops, salons, and restaurants are offering holiday sales and specials. Luz, Maggie Brown, Mojito Cuban Cuisine, and Chez Lola are all offering reasonably-priced prix fixe dinners, but we haven’t been to all of them — can anybody tell us which is the most romantic of the bunch?

I’ve been to Mojito’s twice, and both times was disappointed with the food – it was either barely warm or just not very good.
Chez Lola has a great atmosphere and really good food.
Maggie Brown has good food as well, but since it’s my usual brunch spot, wouldn’t really consider it to be romantic.
Luz always seems to be to crowded and loud
I haven’t been to Mojito’s, but like the other three Myrtle-area restaurants. I’d say Luz has the most romantic potential of the bunch- nice atmosphere, tasty food and some very good cocktails.
