Cafe Fili, Marie Louise Bistro, Allora, Ash Bar at Ulysses.

What are you looking for? Table service? Just good food? Brunch-type food? Lunch? Drinks?

Just good food, regular or brunch. Probably American or Italian food. My wife doesn’t like to venture far outside of her American food comfort zone. I would love to check out cafe fili but my wife would have no interest.

She did not seem interested in alloras menu either.

Have you thought about you each going to a different place, getting to-go orders, and meeting back up somewhere to eat together? Honestly it sounds like you and your wife have very different palates and it seems like she’s not interested in trying something outside of her comfort zone. That’s a bummer.

It’s her birthday so I’d really like to find a nice spot she’d enjoy haha.

Aw, I understand. It’s very sweet that you are wanting to make it a special day for her. :) Unfortunately I don’t have any recommendations but hopefully someone else here will!

Go with Marie Louise. It's not going to be too unfamiliar, and the atmosphere is lovely.
