TOP 10 DATE NIGHT SPOTS IN FAIRFIELD COUNTY

17 Aug 2018 Family, Local Love, Marriage

This post is for my locals 🙂  I get asked all the time about where we go for date night and given it’s almost the weekend, I thought it would be perfect timing to share some of our favorites.  Brian and I make it a priority to go on dates frequently to make sure we have alone time where we can relax, enjoy a delicious meal without interruption and just connect. Sometimes “date night” can be as simple as a car ride alone together but more often than not, we eat!  We love to go out for a good meal and there are so many great restaurants around us that it was really hard to narrow it down to just 10 so I added some bonus places at the end of the post!  I hope this can serve as a helpful guide for those of you in CT (or anyone visiting!) to help answer – where do you want to go for dinner?

10. Cafe Silvium | Stamford 

A great Italian Restaurant with a cozy and romantic atmosphere.

9. Barcelona | Stamford/Norwalk 

A wine bar with an intimate feel and delicious small plates you can share.  They have restaurants in 8 states so you can check to see if there is one near you!

8. Rosie | New Canaan

This is our go to spot for day dates!!  We go there for lunch a few times a month (sometimes twice in the same week!).

7. Columbus Park | Stamford 

This is our favorite Italian restaurant!!  It’s family owned (they are dear friends of ours) and they make you feel like you are a part of their family when you walk in the door.  It’s a welcoming place with unbelievable food.

6. Black Duck | Westport 

This is our favorite dive bar. It has such a fun atmosphere and they even have karaoke sometimes (haha I would love to be a fly on the wall).  It’s right on the water and was featured on the Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-In’s and Dives”.

5. The Chelsea | Fairfield 

Another spot with a great atmosphere and if you even just peak at the menu you will be dying to go. Love it for brunch!

4. Bodega | Darien

Amazing tacos and even better margaritas!  We love Mexican so we are here a ton.

3. The Spotted Horse | Westport 

Great spot in downtown Westport with indoor/outdoor seating and a great variety on their menu.  We love when they have live music.

2. The Whelk | Westport 

SO good!!  Seriously this place is not only beautiful (scroll down to see pictures) but the menu is so creative and tastes perfect every time.  I love to go here on girls nights too.

1. Rowyaton Seafood | Rowyaton

Our spot <3  Right on the water, the best seafood (in my opinion) and just feels like us.

***Bonus***

If you are looking for a more casual feel with really delicious food these spots are definitely not to be missed!

  • Bar Taco  | Multiple Locations – Great taco’s, margarita’s and churro’s!!
  • Knot Norms | Norwalk – The food is SO good and all the seafood is locally sourced.  The lobster roll was even nominated for best in New England.
  • Shake Shack | Multiple Locations – Yes, I included this lol.  This place is amazing!
  • Coal House Pizza | Stamford – Hands down our favorite pizza place.
