Atlanta Date Night Restaurants!

My husband and I love date nights. We have a sitter scheduled every three weeks like clockwork. We usually don’t have plans – we prefer to go out alone and just talk over a long, lazy dinner! Sometimes we add in a movie or seeing friends, but usually it’s just the two of us and some us time! We love restaurants of all kind. Here are our favorite Atlanta restaurant spots around town!

Buckhead

• Le Bilboquet – Fabulous people watching, same vibe as NYC location.
• Umi – Sushi lovers beware! You’ll love it so much you’ll walk out with no money! It’s a vibrant scene & worth the splurge!
• Restaurant Eugene – Foodie heaven. Intimiate restaurant.
• Holeman & Fitch -Great high-end burger place. They are popping up everywhere, with good reason!

Midtown Atlanta

Baraonda – We haven’t been in a while but this was always a fan favorite of my husband and I. Warm, cozy, busy little midtown scene next to Fox Theater. Great food!

Ecco -Recently went. Charming little Italian restaurant!

Westside

Optimist – Warning very loud & not great service! But it has a name in Atlanta. It’s a scene for sure and an absolutely gorgeous restaurant. It has great food if you can overlook the noise & service!

Cooks & Soliders – Good. Been once and enjoyed it.

Antico – Listen. If you see one of the few Antico pizza places in Atlanta just pull over and eat. I don’t care if you’re hungry or not. Just stop and eat this pizza. You’re welcome.

East Cobb

No brainer on these next three restaurants. They are all owned by the same owners and are fabulous. We are frequent fliers at all of them. Worth the drive out of the city!

Seed Kitchen & Bar – Order the Seed 75 and the Salmon. You’re welcome.

Stem Wine Bar – Fantastic spot for a pre-movie drink, or indulging in fabulous wine and snacks. Cozy, intimate with knowledgeable staff.

Drift Oyster Bar – We take our kids here, but then, we have kids who love (and behave!) fancy food. Fabulous oyster bar if you can grab a seat and a awesome bar area with killer cocktails!

We are frequent fliers at all three of the above restaurants. I cannot say enough about the welcoming service and genuine love and care into each of these restaurants. The owners love what they do and it shows.

Alpharetta

Pampas Steakhouse – Old school steakhouse – down to the red leather banquettes and all. Even some live music (not great music but it’s a throw back scene for sure.) Some of best steak on the planet for a special night out!

MF Atlanta – the original MF Restaurant replacement. Been going for 15 years. Won’t stop. These guys do Sushi right!

El Felix – great margaritas, great Mexican, great vibe.

Date Night Outfit!

White Lace Jumpsuit

It’s summer! This white lace jumpsuit is a new favorite. I’ve worn it out for nice family dinner and for date night. The entire outfit is not see through. It’s hard to find white that isn’t! The only part that is sheer is the arms.

The quality of this outfit can’t be overrated. It looks very expensive. It has a side zip at waist and the off the shoulder doesn’t come off. A strapless cami is all you need underneath this.

This is a great outfit for shorter people. I’m 5’5 and it barely grazes the ground so I have to wear sandals with it. If you wear heals it will have more of a bare ankle look – which is cute, but something you should be aware of.

So it’s definitely good for any size person on the 5’5 or shorter side. I’m a 4/5 and wearing a small.

Great feminine look for dates or girl trip. Also – hello vacation outfit! All. Day. People! Bon appetit!
