Interesting selection of restaurants. I think I'd pass on Everest, because of my dislike of heights. And Simon Pearce, because I think you'd have to be insane to eat in that dining room (look at the pic). But La Provence in New Orleans? Mais Oui!

How about Chano's? It's located on 30th and Figueroa in Los Angeles, about two blocks north of USC.

La Provence is across Lake Pontchartrain and a good 40 mile drive from New Orleans.

Schimschack’s on Upper Mountain Road in Sanborn, NY, just a bit east of Niagara Falls. That is where Joe D and Marilyn Monroe hung out in 1952. Ultra-romantic, and great fare.

The Melting Pot is good as far as chains go.

“Well, forget all that. Real romantic restaurants have cut the fluff. Instead, they’ve focused on what’s really important: great food and wine, excellent service, and an authentic ambience,”
Golden arches, the smell of hot fry oil.......just makes a person want to get extra napkins, it does.

I've been to this place once. There are many restaurants like this I guess. I prefer seafood and a waterfront view, if possible.

Looking west toward the Gulf of Mexico from the dock of Roy's Restaurant at Steinhatchee, Florida.
