More info

The date

Uva has been doing the downtown date bar quietly and correctly for years, tucked off the lobby of the heritage Moda Hotel on Seymour Street. It's snug and low-lit, the Italian small plates are built for sharing, and the room rarely tips into scene territory. Catch the daily 2-to-5 happy hour, grab two spots at the marble bar, and ask the bartender what they'd drink.

How to do it

The reliable answer when you want a drink and a quiet bar, central and rarely a scene. Take two seats at the marble bar off the Moda Hotel lobby and let the bartender steer; aim for the daily 2-5pm happy hour or a later pour, since it runs to 2am. Order a glass and a couple of Italian small plates to share, no need to commit to dinner; give it a low-key hour and a half, then carry on down Seymour.
