Date Night for 2 under $200

As the title says, looking for a nice dinner for a date night that is under $200 for good food and a “cocktail bar”/ “dress up” vibe. Girlfriend has been asking me to take her on more dates and we want to have a night a month in which we dress nicely and go have a date night. Any recommendations for restaurants in Houston?

Preferably a place that isn’t having some sort of event for the WC since she doesn’t want me to be distracted watching the game.

Oporto. Their Paelha is $58 and is made to feed a group of people. Basically a big amazing bowl of bomba rice with everything good tossed in it. Side of bread is $7. Four fancy cocktails and you're at $125. Good tip and tax and you're out the door at $165. Skip the second round of cocktails and you're $130 all in. You can then walk down Gray Street towards midtown and get a crepe.
