Every once in a while, I get to eat totally alone in a real restaurant — without the kids. You cannot believe how wonderful this is, to read a book and actually be able to taste the food in quiet rather than worry about the...

dining companions eat before me and then I eat alone. Needless to say some restaurants serve me a bloody piece of meat or burger and back it goes. Leaving me dangling for my dinner and everyone embarrassed to eat without me. Steak...

Will be in San Diego tonight through Wednesday, staying downtown (US Grant). Looking for a couple good restaurants where a solo diner can sit at the bar and enjoy a nice meal and good wine. Would Chive fit the bill? Other good...

I live in midtwon Manhattan and just moved here from California. I feel kinda awkward to sit in the resturant and eat alone, especially in some resturants. Any suggestions of which resturants' atmosphere is comfotable for eating...

One place I really enjoy eating alone is Shabu-Zen in chinatown. Find that eating hot pot makes me relax and enjoy, rather than rush. Prefer the basic meat combo (beef or lamb) with vegetable and noodle sides to the fish and...

, a bit of a drive but I used to eat at the bar at the Metro Grill almost every Monday night for about a year while traveling to Tucson. Metro Grill is at Oracle and McGee (about 1/2 mile north of Ina). Finally maybe someone...

Will be in PDX from Thurs-Sun for business, staying at the Hotel Lucia. Where’s a good place to eat, and not feel like a loser eating alone?

Elvis, Metallica—everybody loves it!

Sushi is always good to eat alone, can meet people at the sushi bar,,, Sushi Gari is a good choice there are locations on upper west and east side, or sushi seki (similar style to sushi gari). Degustation on east 5th st. has...

I like A.W. Shucks in Norfolk. Very hip but relaxed setting..Last time I went there, there were a few people sitting alone if that makes you feel any better. :-) Great food, good customer service, good atmosphere. Check it out!

I just moved from the Mac-Groveland area, and I really liked the wine bar at Heartland for eating alone. It was very soothing and relaxing, and the service was wonderful. I kind of like eating by myself once in a while...

I will be eating alone on a Tuesday night next week and would like recommendations for a fun / cool scene that has great food and great martini’s. I love eating at the Bar and looking for more of an old-school place. I am...
