I know this has been posted 1000 times but I am from here and was looking for something other than my normal date places (digulios, ginos, jubans, ruffinos). This girl works at a fine dining place so I don't think she will want to go to a place like that. Any recommendations on something that is maybe different than the usual same places?

Not much in BR, but Maison Lacour, Brandts Maisonette, are safe, and I've heard that Houmas House is actually doing the real thing over there, and from what I've seen of the menu, I'd have to agree. Still haven't tried it though.

Roberto's River Road Restaurant. You'll be giving her the most disappointing 30 seconds of her life shortly after getting home.

French Market Bistro is really nice inside, but business causal, great date place.

Go casual.

Roberto's = too much driving IMO. Stuck in the car for too long w/ a chick on a first date can lead to some awkward silences. "so uhhh"
French Market Bistro = Very good and one of my BR favorites, but depending on your age and her age I'd go more casual.
Tsunami = Nice date place, but sushi is always questionable on first dates and like you said, "it's been done".
Brandt's & Maison Lacour = Best food in BR, but not cheap and more than I would spend on a first date.
Bistro Byronz = Not too expensive. Nice date place. Large varitety on menu.
Chelseas = Very casual, fairly priced menu, good non-meat options. Can walk to another bar after.
Louisiana Pizza Kitchen = Low key atmosphere. Good pizza. Fresh food. Inexpensive and casual.
Marcello enoteca = Good food. Not overly expensive. Good atmosphere, but a bit loud. Can walk to the Bulldog for a beer after.
Thai Kitchen = One of the most overlooked places in BR. Great Thai and sushi if you think she's feeling frisky. And you can walk to the Bulldog.
Goodluck

French Market Bistro on Highland across from Definitions. They have a great chef, and it's a very nice place, but not a fancy place, per say.
