These are Florida’s most romantic restaurants, according to OpenTable

Seven restaurants in Florida have made OpenTable’s list of the Top 100 Romantic Restaurants in America for 2024. They run the gamut from traditional candle-lit Italian establishments to a restaurant on a private key.

The Sunshine State may be known for its casual beachfront fish tacos joints, but there are also a good share of date-night-worthy restaurants. 

In fact, OpenTable included seven Florida restaurants in its list of the Top 100 Romantic Restaurants in the US for 2024. The reservations site analyzed over 12 million diner reviews and metrics to find the restaurants that diners say set the scene for love.

Here are their picks:
