One of the hardest decisions one person can make when going on a date is choosing a great restaurant. Atlanta is filled with many different restaurants on every other corner and they are all different and unique in their own way. Here’s our UPDATED list of 12 restaurants to take your significant other on a dinner date.
Instagram – GAFollowers
1. Sun Dial Restaurant
One of the most talked about restaurants in Atlanta, not so much for the food, but for the view that it has to offer. The money you’ll pay there isn’t for the food, but more for the experience. A rotating view of the city is always good for a special occasion. Go before sunset to get the full experience of the transition of Atlanta from a busy day with a the romantic skyline view of downtown.
210 Peachtree Street NE Atlanta, GA 30303404-589-7506
2. JCT Kitchen and Bar
Don’t sleep on JCT, this refined southern spot is guaranteed to satisfy your taste buds. This place is located right next to Bacchanalia and gives a great rooftop view of the city of Atlanta. JCT will give you enough food to leave you completely full on an amazing meal and still have enough leftovers for the next day. This place is perfect for a date.
3. Davio’s Northern Italian
Davio’s Italian Restaurant
An upscale Italian restaurant with one of the best wine list, Atlanta has to offer. You will be blown away by Davio’s dining experience! Everything is perfect from the service to the food, one of the best in Atlanta. I don’t know if this hurts or helps but Kanye and Kim Kardashian love to eat at Davio’s when they’re in town.
4. Kevin Rathbun Steak
Another one of the popular steakhouses in Atlanta (I know, there are a lot of steakhouses). Another pricey steakhouse, so make sure to bring your wallet. Great intimate atmosphere so you and your date can enjoy each other’s company. At the price you pay, you would expect great service and that is what they give you. Along with the service is also a great valet that will treat you right. Definitely one of the popular restaurants in Atlanta that won’t disappoint.

5. Dolce Italian
A wonderful atmosphere with a 150 seat dining room surrounded by modern furniture and art creating one of the best dining experiences in Buckhead. It’s located in the new Shops of Buckhead of Atlanta and provides some great Neapolitan pizza, pasta & classic cocktails for you and your date. Take a visit and you won’t be disappointed.
6. Bacchanalia
Bacchanalia
Nearly 25 years in the business, Bacchanalia continues to be a dining staple here in Atlanta. The hospitality is unmatched and it’s the high point for other restaurants in the area to reference. Star Provisions makes sure menus are created by the season and the service is great, the perfect place for a special occasion, birthday’s, anniversaries, etc. Usually Bacchanalia catches a rap for being the most expensive restaurant in Atlanta but if you can afford it’s worth EVERY penny.
7. Canoe
Located right on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, Canoe is one of the most acclaimed restaurants in Atlanta. Once you arrive at the restaurant, you are greeted by a beautiful view of the river and the garden outside which is great for an after-dinner stroll. This is definitely one of those restaurants you have to get reservations. The menu has all that you want and is definitely one of the most delicious places in Atlanta.
4199 Paces Ferry Road, SEAtlanta, GA 30339 770.432.2663
8. Two Urban Licks
We know Two Urban Licks is one of the most raved places in Atlanta. This restaurant used to be an old warehouse, but was fixed up to be one of the most interesting restaurants in Atlanta. Great atmosphere for a date, but would be recommended to go during the week because it can be quite noisy on the weekends. Can be one of the busiest places so it is important to practice patience because the service can suffer a bit. If you plan to go on the weekends, make sure you make a reservation.
820 Ralph McGill Blvd NE Atlanta, GA 30306404-522-4622
9. JCT Kitchen and Bar
Don’t sleep on JCT, this refined southern spot is guaranteed to satisfy your taste buds. This place is located right next to Bacchanalia and gives a great rooftop view of the city of Atlanta. JCT will give you enough food to leave you completely full on an amazing meal and still have enough leftovers for the next day. This place is perfect for a date.
10. The Capital Grille
An American steakhouse, this is another one of the most popular places in Atlanta and one of the most recommended. Another expensive spot, you will pay a price for the entrées but the experience and atmosphere will make up for the price you pay. The employees here pay attention to the close details on service and will be very attentive to you. Their Lobster Mac & Cheese is one of the most recommended dishes in the restaurant and is definitely one of the most recognized entrées. Not only will you and your date enjoy the food there, you will also enjoy the view of Atlanta as well.
255 E. Paces Ferry Road Atlanta, GA 30305 404-262-1162
10. Hal’s on Old Ivy
Inspired South African fare served in a modern eatery & lounge with soaring ceilings & a big patio. I highly recommend this place for date night, it’s very intimate. Read my review on 10 Degrees South from a couple of months ago, the usually have specials on certain days.
11. Chops Lobster Bar
Constantly ranked as one of the top 10 steakhouses in the country. The ambiance of the restaurant is one that will make your date night very romantic. Expect when you take your date there, you will have above-average steak with excellent service. The salads are made table-side with great ingredients to amplify the taste. Your date will definitely thank you when you take them to Chops. This place also made our ‘Top Seafood List”.
70 West Paces Ferry RdAtlanta, GA 30305 404-262-2675
12. Atlas
Bistro Niko is a classic French fare right in the heart of Buckhead. You get a real classy vibe from this place. It’s upscale for sure. Valet parking, an FYI for those who don’t know. It’s one of the finer establishments in Buckhead.

Best view i have ever seen !
Could you recommend romantic places with good food and not so expensive for a romantic date?
Thanks,
David
There ARE excellent restaurants OUTSIDE of Atlanta!
Two Urban Licks, no. Definitely not an intimate setting at all. It’s very loud and crowded. Like a nightclub vibe without the drunken dancing. The food is good and the service is ok, but a date place it is not.
Does anyone know what the first picture, above the title, is taken?
What about Rumis kitchen?!?
seriously dude…is this a list form the nineties?
5 Seasons Brewing one of the best places to eat. Delicious food, great atmosphere and some of the best people working there. My son was Sous Chef there before he died. Looking forward to eating there in July 2015. Shout out to Chef Dave!
why is it so many haters on here?, let the man do his thing English teachers….stop showing your issues and own insecurities and i will be visiting Atlanta soon and will definetly be visiting some of the places on this list 🙂
Breh, this list is straight up trash. Where’s McDonald’s and Wendy’s? You can’t forget about my boy Burger King. Or better yet, what happened to the homies at Five Guys? Man yall got a whack sense of good food.
If I Want An “Above average steak” I’m going longhorns or outback.
And wtf pappadeaux? Might as well take me to McDonalds.
And to further reiterate what these lovely people below me have said… bacchanila… it’s only like the number 1 restaurant in atlanta for awhile.
I agree with MHutch, lighten up dude and have a beer. Is it really worth getting that upset over???
Pappadeaux is completely awesome!!!! I live in Western NC and try to go there every time I’m in Atlanta!!! The service is amazing and prices reasonable considering the quality and outstanding service!!!
Oh my! I was thinking the exact same thing! This list is a disappointment!
great list!
minus pappadeaux… you should replace it with Rumis kitchen
Bacchanalia? The Optimist? Seed?
This is terrible, as a married man I can say any of these places is going to just seem like you’re trying too hard… This is a great list to take a wife on a date or even a serious girlfriend or fiance, but you need to clarify this list. If you’re going on a first date, take a chick to a little sandwich shop or a typical standard chain restaurant.. Show a little creativity, don’t just Google, “Good Date Places in Atlanta.” Ironically, I feel you share the same creative mindset as the person that would read this list.
I’m the guy whose worked for bothering restaurants… that’s who… he changed the picture after I commented. The first one was Bistro Niko. U could tell by the lighting and that’s why 15 other people agreed with my comment..but who are you?
I am a foodie and a food blogger and I totally agree with you.. there are so many nicer places.. and some eclectic… Bacchanalia, Aria are two that come to mind. I do like Canoe.. but Pappadeaux? I’d be insulted if someone suggested taking me to Pappadeaux!
It lists alligator, crawfish and catfish as seafood but none of them are seafood.
I hate Pappadeaux’s food. Everyone seems to like it, why I do not know. I have gone at least 5 times and never enjoyed the food. The environment is cool though. It goes to show….everyone’s taste is DIFFERENT!!!!!!!
I couldn’t agree more. Apart from Ecco, I disagree with the whole list. Where’s The Optimist? St.Cecilia? Bacchanalia?
Bacchanalia should be at the top… and what about Abattoir? Woodfire Grill? Eugene?
You should add….Lure…Barcelona….Satto….and maybe Six Feet Under.
And for folks clowning dude….you act like you paid to get on this site…its a damn blog! Go create your own…so I can come criticize it.
I think this list and website in general IS great. I ve known about it for 2 weeks and have refered to it about 3 times already. Who cares if stuff BE misspelled and proper Grammer is used? Honestly, are you people really that anal? Get a life. Brad Smith do a list on best movie theaters like the one in brookhaven. Or best upscale bars like the bar at the sundial.
Who is this self-appointed food -critic? Pappadeaux? Really?!!
YOU FUCKING SUCK!!!!!!!!! KILL YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
