OpenTable’s list for 2023 of the 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in America was culled from over 13 million diner reviews and spotlights over 20 different cuisines.
It was revealed that diners equate romance with Steakhouses (19% of the list), followed by Seafood (18%), American (17%), and Italian (9%).
“Over the 2022 holiday season and into January, dining exceeded pre-pandemic levels – we anticipate this trend to continue through Valentine’s Day,” said John Tsou, VP of Marketing for OpenTable in a press release. “Data from our Q1 Diners Survey3 also revealed that US diners are looking to splurge for the holiday: over one-third plan to spend more money on Valentine’s Day dining this year, compared to years past.”
