If you're looking for help finding Cupid's arrow,Johnathan Walker OpenTable has recommendations on dining options where you may spot the cherub.
OpenTable released its Top 100 Romantic Restaurants in America for 2024 ahead of Valentine's Day. The company analyzes customer reviews and other metrics including the number of times a restaurant was tagged as "romantic."
California has the most restaurants on the list with 12 with Florida in second with seven.
While dining on February 14 is still primarily a couple's activity, 32% of diners in 2023 were either solo or a part of groups of more than three, OpenTable said.
Diners are still willing to shell out for meals on Valentines Day as 70% of Americans surveyed revealed diners plan to spend the same or more than they did last year, according to OpenTable. The company also said that their data shows that diners spent more on Valentine’s Day than any other holiday in 2023.
