Romantic restaurants for a V-Day to remember
This isn't just any date. This is the big-time, so there had better not be any screw-ups, right? Unfortunately, a lot of restaurants cut corners on Valentine's Day, knowing they can count on a full dining room without really having to work for it, and so a lot of us have less-than-heartwarming memories of February meals out.
Well, not in this dojo. Have a look at these eight prime picks for romantic dining, and you won't go home feeling let down. Book a table early, pick your date up on time, and just let the wine take it from there.
Jimmy Phillips, a Nashville native and classically trained chef, owns this elegant but comfy bistro in a corner of the Sylvan Park neighborhood. Phillips and wife Seema looked for years before finding a space to open their own restaurant, settling on the former storefront home of Johnson's Meat Market. The chic renovation, including a tidy patio, suits the cuisine, which has classic French and Mediterranean influences but relies on local produce and other fresh ingredients. The wine list is small but interesting, plucking gems from around the world.
V-Day strong suit: French without the fuss. You can dine on foie gras while wearing (nice) jeans here, and the superb cooking is accented with a very affordable wine list.
