The Little Door - Los Angeles, CA
The Los Angeles Times says this charming spot is one of the most romantic restaurants in the world. With a foliage-draped courtyard, colorful ambient lighting, and amazing French cuisine, it's easy to see why.
Floataway Cafe - Atlanta, GA
Atlanta is home to plenty of romantic restaurants, but this spot tops them all. Housed in a former industrial space, this elegant restaurant boasts some of the best French, Italian, and Mediterranean cuisine. See if you can snag a seat on the patio and get a glimpse of the starry sky above.
Quiessence - Phoenix, AZ
This farm-to-table restaurant offers fresh food, great service, and a gorgeous atmosphere. For an extra-special experience, reserve the table next to the brick oven. It's meant for special occasions and is slightly secluded, perfect for a dreamy date night.
If you can't grab a table there, then check out nearby Cibo's, which also boasts a beautiful outdoor patio and intimate lighting.
Latitudes on Sunset Key - Key West, FL
Listening to the waves as you and your partner enjoy flavorful island cuisine is about as romantic as it gets. We recommend ordering a rum cocktail with your meal - the restaurant makes both white and golden rum on site.
Villa Ravenna - Tulsa, OK
Owned and operated by a Northern Italian family, this trattoria will make you feel like you've been transported to Venice. The owner's motto is "make love to your food," so we really can't imagine a better place to get a date night started.
Tower Restaurant - Las Vegas, NV
If you can't take your love to the Eiffel Tower in Paris, this is the next best thing. With dramatic views of the Bellagio fountains and amazing French cuisine, your sweetiewill be all heart eyes.
For more of a vintage Las Vegas feel, head down the strip to the ever-romantic Casa di Amore, where you can listen to live jazz as you enjoy your meal.
Geja's Cafe - Chicago, IL
Few foods are more romantic than fondue. And there's no better place for it than Geja's Cafe. As if the food wasn't enchanting enough, this place also ups the romance level with candlelight and Flamenco music. If you really want to go above and beyond, you can pre-order flowers to your table.
Pier W - Lakewood, OH
Pier W proves you don't need to be on the coast to enjoy a waterfront dining experience. Here, you can look out over Lake Erie as you enjoy some of the best lobster, crab, and other seafood the region has to offer.
Harry's - Manhattan, KS
This eatery may be in Kansas, but don't expect any BBQ ribs. The contemporary-classic restaurant feels like something straight out of the 1950s, with lavish decor and vintage elements. Don't skip dessert while you're here - we hear the cheesecake is amazing.
La Grenouille - New York, NY
New York has plenty of options for a romantic evening out, for sure. One extra romantic choice is this upscale French eatery, which is bursting with fresh flowers and luxe decor.
But if you're seeking something a little more accessible, then head to Amélie in Greenwich Village. It's a French restaurant with truly amazing wine, cheese, and escargot. Bon appétit!
Match - Norwalk, CT
This buzzy spot is a great spot for a Valentine's Day date or anniversary celebration, especially if your date is a self-proclaimed foodie. The menu changes every day, so you're sure to find something you've never tried. Cozy up at the bar or in one of the leather booths - the choice is yours.
1789 - Washington, D.C.
This luxe, renovated Federal house perfectly reflects the classic American fare you'll find here. Filled with antiques and historic photographs, this upscale dining experience combines everything people love about old and new D.C.
For something a little cozier, head to Dupont Circle and check out Floriana, a charming Italian spot in a renovated townhouse.
The Inn at Weston - Weston, VT
We can't imagine a better place to be than this adorable Vermont village for a special celebration. After a day of shopping for antiques, you and your sweetheart can cozy up in this candlelit restaurant with a glass of wine.
Canlis - Seattle, WA
This sleek, modern spot is perfect for an upscale date. The restaurant has won too many awards to count (including Most Romantic Restaurant) and is known for both incredible views and amazing service. Ask your server about the restaurant's history - it's fascinating.
If you can't make it up those windy roads, then it's worth checking out The Pink Door, an intimate spot nestled near Pike Place Market. With no signage outside and surprise cabaret performances, it feels like a speakeasy.
Rise - Dallas, TX
This Dallas bistro offers savory and sweet soufflés that are sure to please any palate. But if you needed further proof that it's the place to be on for a special rendezvous, just look at the name of the street it's on: Lovers Lane.
Sonoma - Worcester, MA
Okay, so maybe you and your partner don't have time for a big round-the-world excursion right now. But at Sonoma, you can certainly eat like it. The global-inspired cuisine will make anyone feel adventurous, so who knows where the rest of the night could lead.
Blue Boar Inn - Midway, UT
This European-style chateau brings a touch of rustic elegance to your getaway. Start with drinks and appetizers in the inn's "Truffle Hollow" and then adjourn to the formal dining room to enjoy fresh, classic American fare.
Lemaire - Richmond, VA
This restaurant brings classic southern charm and upscale elegance, all at an affordable price. We recommend starting with the oysters and ending with the chocolate cherry truffle torte for a truly aphrodisiacal date.
Ivy Inn - Hasbrouck Heights, NJ
The elegant decor and exquisite fare alone make this a nice date spot during your shore trip. But what we love most is this: After an extensive renovation, the restaurant reopened its doors on Valentine's Day of 1997. We can't think of a more special place to celebrate.
Grace White Barn Inn - Kennebunk, ME
The rustic decor and floor-to-ceiling windows make this a enchanting spot to spend Valentine's Day with your sweetheart. The building you'll dine in is actually two restored farmhouses from the 1820s, making this a particularly special place.
If you want someplace that's a little more casual, try Village Tavern down the street, but don't let the name fool you. You won't find bar grub here, but rather hearty servings of filet mignon, salmon and ribs. Yum.
