Most Romantic Restaurants

1. Boulevard Bistro  Valentine's Day may be fully booked, but any time is the right time to visit this elegant restaurant with award-winning cuisine.  If you've been meaning to pop the question, this is the place for her to say "I Do" to you. 

2. Todo Un Poco Mexican & Italian Bistro  Nothing says "I love you" like dinner à deux.  Reserve your spot on the 14th today and choose from a prix fixe (fixed price) option or the regular menu from 4:30 p.m. until 10 p.m.

3. The Brick House  Hey, love birds:  Italian pot roast with mashed potatoes is on the menu this Monday night—tell each other how you feel over gourmet comfort food and a bottle of chianti. That's amore!

4. Palermo Ristorante Italiano  Gin and vodka fans, Martini Mondays are here!  Channel your inner Dean Martin, make a reservation and enjoy your favorite beverage and appetizer specials in the new bar/lounge area from 4 p.m. until closing time.

5. Spataro Restaurant and Bar  Gaze into each other's eyes over Happy Hour beverages and appetizers starting at just $3, Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. until 6:30 p.m.  Who says you have to spend a fortune to have a good time?  Think outside the Patch.
