With Valentine's Day falling on Saturday this year, it's bound to be tough to make reservations. Not all eateries will have special menus that evening. If they do, reservations will be necessary (most take them online). Some restaurants have a dress code.
Below is a list of restaurants that may score high on romantic ambiance. However, a mention here is not an endorsement.
More will be added as (or if) they announce special menus, so visit this post frequently.
