What's the feel? First date? Serious date? Married date night?

What's she like? Jeans and a t-shirt or dress and heels?.

The dinner and ambiance should match your type of relationship

Maddens is our go-to date night spot. Food and service are consistently a home run. We usually end the night with a drink at the Proudest Monkey (or start the night with their yuppy fries)... Or a glass of dessert wine from Uncorked. Downtown Bryan offers all kinds of dinner and drink options all within walking distance. There's usually some kind of live music going on somewhere!

Drinks at the Republic are always good. Go when Chris Crow is playing for great music.

Not that we have date nights (me and the s.o. just go to dinner), the following are what I would consider to be good dinner date locations (in no particular order) if dinner is the main event of the date:

Cafe Eccell
Maddens
Amico Nave
Luigis
Veritas
Aji Sushi and Pho

Note - all are independent restaurants, and while not the least expensive, they are not the most expensive either..

Madden's definitely tops my list, too.

Yea, these questions are important.

Caffe Capri can hit all those criteria. It's casual enough for a first date, but still intimate enough for a serious romantic dinner.

Think that might do the trick. It's an old college friend.

Agree! Our most recent "get a sitter and be adults" date night included Madden's, live music and drinks in the LaSalle courtyard and then drinks at Proudest Monkey. Loved it all!

Try an evening out at Messina Hof. Start with a wine tasting then go next door to their outstanding eatery. If you really wanna do it right book a nite in the BnB and have a great morning breakfast.
Do it , loved it

Republic is great, and so is the food. It's a wonderful date spot.

I'm with fly rod. The Republic is a great restaurant. Just pick a night that they don't have live music. It's really loud those nights.

GunRangeGal recommended the live music experience. Guess it depends on your taste. Live music done well is something I always appreciate.

If only we had a ferris wheel for after dinner shenanigans.

I agree with GRG about the quality of the live music. It depends on why you are going to the republic. If you are going for the live music, then yes it's done well. The folks who play and sing are good. But if you want a date that's more quiet romantic, avoid the bar or tables that are near the bar or go on another night.

thanks... We actually can't stand live or loud music at a restaurant.. If i want noise, i'll stay home with the twins..

I go out to eat so i can actually talk to my wife... its rare nowadays that we can even be in each others company without 2 little people demanding attention, or a wedding, or photos, or bees, or .....

Last time i had to beg my mom to babysit so we could go out and i could actually talk to my wife about taxes and business stuff.

Luigi's on Rock Prairie has a nice atmosphere and has non intrusive love music on weekend evenings.

Veritas is pretty amazing as well.

Love music is always good for a date! But non intrusive ruins the evening, means the love music wasn't very helpful.

Veritas (which had fantastic live music this past friday might I add) or Luigis. Drinks before or after at Republic or Benjamin knox outside
