We love flowers…chocolate…chick flicks… and last, but certainly not least, dinner dates! Durham has a wonderful selection of restaurants, giving you a wide variety of great locations to cozy up to your cutie. Whether you are looking for a low-key coffee shop, a small restaurant in the city, or a fancy steakhouse, Durham’s choices are sure to please. In the following article, I have compiled a list of some of the best restaurants in Durham for dinner dates (or fun nights out with the girls)!
Vin Rouge- Located right off East Campus, this French restaurant is a romantic spot for you and your boo to enjoy a cozy, candlelit dinner!
Bin 54- Even though this Chapel Hill restaurant is a bit of a drive, the trip is definitely worth it! This steakhouse can be expensive, so it is great for special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, etc.
Parizade- This Mediterranean restaurant is a great place to dine for those of you who are looking for a restaurant that is somewhere between casual and fancy. Though some of the menu options are expensive, the restaurant also serves a wide variety of tapas and pastas, which are less pricey.
