Definitely don’t eat at the funny bone. The food is garbage, and you and your fiancé will spend the rest of the night taking turns on the toilet instead of each other.

That being said, there are some fine restaurants in the area. If you’re into craft beer Elicit Brewery is down the street and has both excellent food and excellent craft beer. This would be my first choice, if it were me.

If you’re looking for additional entertainment Dave and busters is right there, which can be fun and different (but expensive)

Someone else here said “Maggy Mcflys” - don’t eat there. It’s like second rate Cheesecake Factory. The menu is like 37 pages long. I did restaurant work for 15 years and I can tell you with a menu like that, not everything is fresh. The service is iffy because who can remember what’s in 2073 different options. I’ve been a couple of times and the server had to go ask someone else the answer to every question I had - which was basic stuff - again, I’m a restaurant dude and I’m not looking to complicate peoples lives, I just wanted to know what I was eating.

There’s another brewery there called “BJ’s” - I’ve never been there personally, but I’m always surprised by how many cars are in the lot, so it’s probably fairly decent.

Lastly, if you’re looking for upscale, fine dining type atmosphere, there is Mill on the River or Burtons in South Windsor. Both are proximal to the comedy club and have classier environments if that’s what you’re after.

Good luck.
