Let’s not dilly dally around here, we know once February starts—Valentine’s Day is on everyone’s mind. Whether you’re single or happily committed and plan to celebrate Valentine’s Day (or Galentine’s with your girlfriends), Dallas is a great spot for date night. Here are the top 6 go-to places with our matching verdict why we love them and why living in Dallas maybe your best decision yet.
Tony’s Pizza & Pasta
If you’re the type who enjoys leftovers, hefty servings, and are in no way embarrassed by how much you can eat together as a couple, then Tony’s Pizza & Pasta is the perfect date night spot for you. The restaurant boasts of its generous portions, reasonable prices, its proximity to home, and their highly known BYOB (bring your own beverage). Tony’s Pizza & Pasta is the perfect spot for couples who would love a very chill, relaxing vibe on date night.
Fish City Grill
You know those places where the food is exquisitely plated, yet it’s still humble enough to remind you of home? Fish City Grill is exactly that place. If you and your significant other are seafood aficionados, try this restaurant out for date night. A new branch has recently opened at the Lake Highlands Town Center, which makes it reasonably close to home. What stands out to their regulars is their impeccable service (on top of their freshly stocked bar and amazing food). Their self-declaration of their Oyster Nachos as World Famous is enough to pique your interest. Try it out and taste for yourselves!
The Blue Fish
Three words: MEGA lobster roll. We know there’s nothing quite sexy about trying to pry a lobster open, but the satisfaction that comes of out if is epic. If you’re looking at Japanese cuisine for date night, The Blue Fish is the perfect spot for you. Home of the Original Ahi Tower, this restaurant offers premium quality sushi and sashimi, which make for gastronomic delights by the end of your evening. With its mysterious ambiance and dark interiors, this is the place for when you’re looking for something more intimate on Valentine’s.
Velvet Taco
Hey casual date-nighters, we’re talking to you. Velvet Taco is considered as one of the best places for a laid-back night out, and if you’re close to Greenville Ave.—you’re in luck. This spot prides itself on serving more than 20 taco varieties and so many originals you’ve never seen before. Keelie’s favorite is their Chicken Tikka Masala: Indian food in a taco = what dreams are made of. Elevated tacos at its finest, what more can you ask for?
Mi Cocina
You can’t go wrong with the Mambo Taxi. Mi Cocina serves great-tasting (they say it’s legendary) margaritas and their Highland Park Village location features one of the best atmospheres so far. Not to mention, this restaurant is built as a family tradition and celebrates fun holidays like National Tequila Day and National Fajita Day, as well as honoring public servants on July 4th. Not only does this place stem from a purposeful story, but it has one of the best Tex-Mex meals we’ve ever tasted.
Neighborhood Services
If you’re looking for a higher-end date-night for this special occasion, look no further than Neighborhood Services. It has that classic Dallas restaurant atmosphere full of life and energy, plus great cocktails, service, and even better food. This place gets pretty packed and even more so during Valentine’s, so remember to make a reservation. It’s the best!
So why choose Dallas to Live in?

Dallas is home to a variety of restaurants that offer different cuisines, suitable for whatever mood you’re in to celebrate.
