Best Date Night Restaurants in Highland Park

Our first experience will not be our last! We live a few hours away and planned a weekend getaway. Everything from the ambiance, service, and food was impeccable! Check in and valet were seamless. Sitting on the swings waiting to be called to our table was a total vibe! We were seated below the bar right at the entrance. At first I had really wished we were upstairs but the food and ambiance made me forget right away! We started with the bread board appetizer which was delivered by one of the managers, Shakur. This impressed me because he was interacting with the guests and you could tell he wanted to make sure our experience was satisfactory! The breads were delicious and the spreads were perfect compliments! I had the haddock and my husband had the lobster mac and cheese. We were expecting small portions for the fine dining price—we were WRONG! We were shocked at how much food arrived and we had to box up a big portion of everything (appetizer, meals, dessert) that we ordered. To finish, we had to order the Pittsburgh cookie table! Were the cookies the best cookies we’ve ever had? No. Am I still glad we ordered it? Absolutely! I especially liked the heart shaped cookies. They were delicious! I must try brunch next!

An absolutely great visit! I've never been and was looking for new places to try for Valentine's/Self-Love Day, lol. I was late for my reservation (I did call to make them aware) and they were still able to accommodate me -- nice customer service. I sat at the bar and was greeted by Scott. He's a sweetheart and served me a couple Sparkling Comsos -- yumm. For my dinner, I got the Scottish Salmon cooked medium. It was made perfectly! The accoutrements were delish as well. Abby(ie) made sure I was tended to throughout. Very nice experience in a beautiful space with matching vibes.

We went for the Valentine’s Day dinner. The food was thoughtful, the drinks were creative, the service was attentive, and the ambience was electric as a result.

My boyfriend and I had a fantastic Valentine's Day dinner there. Everyone working there was extremely friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic and the ambiance was excellent. I would definitely go back!

Our server, Meaghan, was terrific as usual, and she made an outstanding wine recommendation. The jámon Serrano with almonds and the scallops crudo were superb. Fun experience once again.
