For great food and entertainment: Marion / El Tucan
If you’re looking to dazzle your date with more than just dinner, Marion is the perfect place for romance and fun. Kick off your night and get the aphrodisiacs flowing with their fresh oysters and pair them with some bubbly. Of course, don’t forget to add some truffles to your meal, which we know is the spot’s favorite ingredient. When you’re done, catch the show of the night at El Tucan next door.
For the ultimate romantic: Casa Tua
As far as romantic restaurants go, Casa Tua easily takes the prize home for Miami. Nestled in a cozy home setting, with a romantically lit, intimate outdoor garden, Casa Tua is the perfect place to take your long-time loved one on Valentine’s Day. Haute Living even chose it as one of the top 5 places to propose in Miami.
For dinner on the water: Seaspice
For dinner with an unbeatable water view, head to the Miami River and for Seaspice. This year, the restaurant is offering decadent themed specials, as well as a specially-created romantic dessert from Executive Pastry Cheff Jill Montinola called A Woman’s Sigh, composed of dulcey mousse, port glee, passion fruit and marshmallow. It’s sure to put a sweet ending to your romantic dinner.
