Valentine’s Day is the day of love and a great opportunity to show your significant other just how much they mean to you. There’s no better way to do that than a nice dinner at one of Bainbridge’s local restaurants.

The American will be offering a dinner for two Tuesday-Saturday, for those who may have to celebrate later. The special costs $100 and includes the couple’s choice of a bottle of wine from the premium wine selection, an individual appetizer for each person, a baby wedge salad for each person, an entrée choice of roasted rack of lamb, Coldwater lobster tail, center cut filet or kale, bruschetta, and feta cheese stuffed chicken breast. Guests also have their choice from three different desserts. They can choose between white chocolate lavender crème brulee, chocolate mousse topped with raspberries or homemade lavender ice cream.

If a four-course meal is too much for you but you’re still looking for a nice dinner out, Bonnie Blue House will be serving crab-topped filet with five grilled shrimp and a dessert. Bonnie Blue House does not take reservations, however the hostess said if the couple wants to call ahead and tell how many are in their party, they will try to keep a table available.

If you and your loved one are feeling a little less formal, Uncle Bill’s Pizzeria is having a sweetheart special. They are offering 1 medium 1 topping pizza and two drinks for only $10. You can find their coupon to redeem the offer in Saturday’s issue.

No matter where you and your loved one go for dinner, it is bound to be a special night because of who you are spending it with.
