The 12 Most Romantic Date Night Restaurants in Atlanta
"In the early stages of dating (when we’re high-key looking for red flags), a casual spot helps keep pressure low. Hit up a combo that has soul-mate level chemistry with Wild Heaven beers and El Tesoro tacos in the West End’s Lee + White complex. Grab the Emergency Beer and settle on the comfy couches in the back. It's not a candle-lit dinner, but sitting shoulder-to-shoulder is far more intimate than table-top dining. Snacky foods like queso, salsas, and guac served with their homemade chips work if you’re pacing for a longer night. Then, return to the counter to snag the meaty carne asada taco or a fat barbacoa burro stuffed with rice, beans, and onions. If love isn’t in the cards, at least the food is good enough for a second date." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams
