- CCelinaWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoSpent out valentines day dinner here and it was amazing! our server was very attentive, sweet, and friendly. the wine is amazing! I had pinot gris and sauvignon blanc, both were great. our appetizer came out quickly (caprese flatbread 10/10) and our entrees came out shortly after, we were still finishing out appetizer! food service was quick and efficient and the food was excellent. me and my fiancé both enjoyed our food. the music was almost the show of the night. they had oldies r&b playing like sade, tamia, etc. so it was really nice to sing along while sipping my wine… if you’re debating if you want to come here I say DO IT. you won’t regret it. not even a little! and their staff is so sweet we even got pics before our night ended taken by their front staff. thank you for the best valentines day dinner experience!More infoCooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant - Rockville, MDPrice: Moderate• American• Rockville•4.6
- SSheriVIPWashington, D.C. Area •66 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoMy husband and I were celebrating both Valentine’s Day and we our 3-year anniversary. We started our evening with a bottle of red wine and the delicious spicy shrimp appetizer, per our server’s suggestion. Our fillets were cooked to perfection. To accompany our entree, we shared two side dishes, the loaded baked potato and the creamed spinach-yum. And ended our meal with the sinfully delicious cheesecake. The service was outstanding- thank you Henry we had a memorable evening. The long stem red rose was a nice touch!More infoRuth's Chris Steak House - GaithersburgPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Gaithersburg•4.7
- TTheresaBaltimore / Maryland •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis was our 2nd time visiting this restaurant. Hubby and I went for Valentine's Day. I know they're trying to fit a lot of two-person tables on that day, but it felt awkward to be in the middle of two other couples. It was lovely to be created by a red rose on the table that I can bring home. The service was kind and quick. We received our dishes within 10 minutes. Unfortunately my steak was undercooked. It was corrected immediately, but it just didn't have the wow factor that a $45 fillet should have. Hubby had a burger with fries and said that it tasted nice as well. Definitely better than the average restaurant but he also felt it was missing a wow factor to send it over the top in flavor. The food tasted nice. Definitely better than other restaurants. Like a 4 out of a 5 for taste. We did feel a little rushed to get out with the bill arriving as soon as our meal was over because we were not having dessert. Again, this is probably because it was Valentine's Day. The staff was kind and considerate and nice the entire time though. We would definitely return. But I probably wouldn't get the filet again, because it wasn't quite the quality that it should have been.More infoCopper Canyon Grill - GaithersburgPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Gaithersburg•4.6

- JJohnWashington, D.C. Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoI had the crabcake and my wife had the parmesan trout and both were fantastic! Her trout was very favorable with the spices and parmesan coating. The served me a real Maryland flavored crabcake. The coleslaw was the best I ever had because it wasn't too sweet, and you could taste the vinegar which was the perfect tart flavor that was needed. Many coleslaw recipes taste cheap and too sweet but theirs was balanced. The fries rival McDonald's fries and before you laugh think about how perfect McDee's makes their french fries. The special Valentine Strawberry and Chocolate Mousse cake was a perfect ending to our meal. It had a little scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and white chocolate heart stuck into the cake. We will bring back our family in our second visit. Plus, our server was the best!More infoTower Oaks LodgePrice: Moderate• American• Rockville•4.7
