4 Arizona Restaurants Make Yelp’s 100 Best Date-Night List
Are you ready for romance? Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Yelp has compiled a list of the country’s best date-night restaurants, based on Yelpers’ glowing reviews. These swoon-worthy spots range from quiet, candlelit classics to buzzy venues with live music — and all offer stellar entrees that set the stage for a memorable, romantic evening.
For Valentine’s Day, tables at these popular restaurants fill up fast, so don’t wait to reserve your spot! (Although, if you’ve procrastinated, you’re not alone: More than half [61%] of Yelp diners make their Valentine’s Day plans within a week of the holiday, and 21% make same-day reservations.*)
If you do miss landing a reservation for the big day itself, try a tip from in-the-know diners: Book the weekend before or after the holiday. The Saturdays around Valentine’s Day are more popular for dining out than Valentine’s Day itself, according to Yelp data.*
What makes a great date-night restaurant? Here are the special touches Yelp reviewers look for:
An intimate atmosphere. From gauzy curtains around tables at Chicago’s Penumbra (#4) to the Parisian flair of Missouri’s Le Fou Frog (#7), romantic ambiance and intimate vibes are key to date-night dining. Whether you want to spend an evening with your special someone, celebrate an anniversary, or even pop the question, these spots provide the perfect settings.
The food of love. When it comes to romantic dining, Rome is where the heart is — in fact, half of the top 10 restaurants on this year’s list specialize in Italian cuisine. But they’re hardly basic red-sauce standbys: At San Diego’s Cesarina (#1), Los Angeles’s Maccheroni Republic (#5), Miami’s Pane e Vino (#6), and NYC’s Da Andrea (#9), fresh-made pastas are handcrafted in-house daily — you may even be able to watch the artisans in action. Austin foodie favorite Intero (#3) takes scratch-made a step further, creating its own artisanal chocolates, too.
Tokens of affection. It’s not just about the food. Several of our top 10 date-night spots love to play Cupid for anniversaries and other heart-centered occasions, creating a swirl of romance with free champagne, wine, or desserts. (Be sure to mention the anniversary or special occasion when booking, so the staff will know.) At Cesarina (#1) in San Diego and Club A Steakhouse (#2) in NYC, a souvenir anniversary Polaroid is provided as an additional flirty flourish.
The restaurants on our list specialize in creating date nights to remember. Download our Top 100 Date Night Restaurants Collection on your Yelp mobile app so you’ll always have a romantic hotspot at your fingertips.
