Date nights are few and far between for some of us, but other couples enjoy date nights regularly, not just on a first date. I admire those couples who schedule a date every Saturday night, or the second Friday of each month.

The number one restaurant mentioned in the crowdsourced post was a restaurant I had heard about for years, but never noshed in.  Given the number of positive posts about this eatery, it's on my list, and should probably be on yours as well.
