The bar scene with Ben Stiller and Téa Leoni had originally been scripted to be shot at Elaine's in Manhattan. However, Director Brett Ratner and the writers Jeff Nathanson and Ted Griffin agreed that was not believable that these two characters meet at an upscale place when Stiller is a working class guy from Queens. So they relocated the scene to Queens with the help of Production Designer Kristi Zea and used the bar from Quei bravi ragazzi (1990), which wasn't far from where the apartment that Stiller lives in the film in Astoria, Queens.
