Grown Man B.I. Din Dins

These spots aren't your Johnny's or Esquire jump-offs (which deserve multiple blog entries in their own right). They are grown man B.I. restaurants in the Tdot to be enjoyed with a lady friend. Dinner for 2 with a bottle of vin rouge is approx $150 at both of these spots (click on pics for links to restaurant websites).
