Two Denver Restaurant’s Named in the Top 100 Most Romantic in America

Feb 2, 2023, 4:09 PM

With Valentine’s Day just weeks away, if you hope to snag a reservation for a dinner with your sweetie, time is ticking. And in case you’re still trying to decide where you’d like to eat, OpenTable’s annual list of the 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in America is now out.

The restaurant reservation site analyzed more than 13-million reviews from verified OpenTable diners to come up with 2023’s list. It includes restaurants in 27 states and California has the most of any state with 13 romantic hot spots.

Colorado had a couple on the list, both of which are in the Denver area. Guard & Grace  in LoDo and Shanahan’s Steakhouse in the DTC area are the two in the Mile High City. Bad news, though, both are already booked with reservations for V-Day this year.

Topping the list this year with the highest number of nearly five-star reviews is family-owned and local-seafood restaurant Mama’s Fish House, based in Hawaii.
