The Five Best Valentine’s Day Tables

You’ve got exactly one month to find, vet and confirm the perfect Valentine’s Day date. So you get to work on that. We’ll provide the perfect dinner table. Hope you like fireplaces.

Table #506, Savor

Table #506, Savor

You Require: Something small and intimate for gazing into each other’s eyes. Or better yet, for gazing out onto Klyde Warren.
You’ll Receive: A cozy booth situated along one of Savor’s glass walls. Perfect for enjoying the park view while sharing some scallops and wine. Hey, a dog playing frisbee.

Savor, 2000 Woodall Rodgers Fwy, 214-306-5597

Bridewell Terrace, Warwick Melrose

Bridewell Terrace, Warwick Melrose

You Require: Something impressive. Okay, very impressive.
You’ll Receive: A table for two, a bucket of champagne, some heat lamps, a personal server and... your very own private terrace for the evening. Guess we probably should have led with that.

Table #10, Gemma

Table #10, Gemma

You Require: Honestly, just a place where your date will be happy and you can eat veal cheeks.
You’ll Receive: The corner banquette at this homey Henderson spot. It’s great for feeding each other olives, drinking wine through linked arms and other activities that are embarrassing 364 days of the year.

Gemma, 2323 N Henderson Ave, Ste 109, 214-370-9426

Table #15, Hibiscus

Table #15, Hibiscus

You Require: The flickering glow of a fireplace. Because that never fails.
You’ll Receive: The most fireside table at Hibiscus, where you can dive into spit-roasted duck and whiskey cocktails while shadows play across your face. Mood: set.

Hibiscus, 2927 N Henderson Ave, 214-827-2927

Table #331, Toko V

Table #331, Toko V

You Require: Privacy. Space. Sushi.
You’ll Receive: A small, enclosed patio with cushioned benches and decorative throw pillows. It’s perfect for some quiet conversation about short ribs and spicy tuna. Or a quick nap between courses.

Toko V, 33 Highland Park Village, 214-522-6035
