The 13 Best Date Night Restaurants in Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"Gina’s is the type of pocket-sized neighborhood bistro you might expect to find on a quiet corner of a bustling downtown in a much older, larger city. The building feels like it holds some history in its bones, even if the tables and walls are sporting pristine white tablecloths and shiny new coats of paint. The menu blends classic Italian and French flavors, with a handful of handmade pastas and larger entrees that are great for sharing. Pop in for a bite before catching a show at The Paramount up the street—especially if you’re all dressed up already—or plan your next date night around an order of mussels and shoestring fries that you won’t stop thinking about anytime soon." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
