Best Date Night Restaurants In Naples, Florida
One of the most beautiful cities in South West Florida, is Naples. It is picturesque, clean, cultural, beautiful, and cozy. Downtown Naples is located so close to the beach just walk 2 minutes down 5th Avenue. There are hotels and gorgeous condos with shopping and gourmet restaurants. At night, the downtown lights up with what looks like Christmas lights but it seems they’re there all year but it adds a nice touch to the city.
There are no restrictions to enjoy a beautiful romantic dinner in Naples and no reservations are needed. There is a wide choice of cuisine as well from American, Italian, French, Persian, and Japanese. Make sure to dress up when you go for dinner in Naples as it’s a more upscale luxurious town and you will definitely feel out of place because everyone dresses up to go out in Naples.

If you’re wanting a more luxurious authentic Italian experience in Italy, why not plan your stay in a luxury Sicily villa!
Chops City Grill
If you’re looking for a high-end steakhouse that is upscale, with amazing food, services, and a luxury vibe, this place is perfect! A fine dining luxury experience that won’t break your wallet. I had the Japanese Wagyu Strip Steak with the Jalapeno Au Gratin Potatoes and Organic Asparagus to share. Make sure to save room for dessert because the Key Lime Pie is incredible!
Vergina
We’ve been here twice and loved it each time. This is a gourmet restaurant with a romantic vibe that is not expensive. They have half-price drinks at the bar from 3-5 pm daily. There is always live music at 8:30 pm and room to dance to work off those calories from dinner.
For the most romantic vibe make sure to have a seat on the side patio in the little pathway with all the lights.
We’ve tried the Originale and Monticello pizzas and the Carpaccio and Burrata salad.
Osteria Tulia
This place has a very romantic rustic vibe with a gorgeous patio. We’ve been here twice and I’ve gotten the Garganelli pasta twice because it’s unbelievable but all their pasta look so good. This one is like a bolognese with lamb and sheep cheese! Never had anything like it. We're always too full for desert so next time I will be trying the desert because they look so good! I will either go for the Peach Crumble or the Spiced Pear Crostata, so stay tuned on my Instagram stories.
Tommy Bahama Restaurant & Bar
Tommy Bahama is not the cheapest restaurant but they always have daily specials and the food and cocktails are really good. Make sure to try the Macadamia-Crusted Goat Cheese, Blue Crab Bisque, Grilled Chicken & Mango Salad (lunch), and the Blackened Mahi Mahi Tacos (lunch). They also make the best Pina Coladas!
D’Amico’s The Continental
We really loved this place! It is another upscale steakhouse in Naples but located on 3rd St. If you love caviar as much as we do, make sure to try it because it was incredible. We also had the Yellowtail Carpaccio, Steak Tartare, Heirloom Tomato Carpaccio salad, Iowa Fillet Mignon, and a side of Creamed Corn. All in all, we splurged to a $500 dinner but sometimes you just have to and luckily it was worth every bite!
Sea Salt
Gourmet seafood that’s organic and sustainable. A beautiful fine dining experience in the historic Naples district on 3rd St. We happened to go there between 4-6 pm so we took advantage of their 4-course dinner special for 2 that was phenomenal! It is $80 and includes a bottle of house white or red wine. It’s a set 4-course dinner and the food is incredible! We’ll definitely be back there.
Campiello
This is another fine dining restaurant in the historic Naples district on 3rd St that features a rustic contemporary Italian menu. Make sure to try the early dining menu from 5-6 pm which is $29.95 per person for a 2-course menu. They change up what is on the menu but when we went, we had the meatballs to start and finished off with the Garganelli & Spaghetti Alla Chitarra pasta. The food, ambiance, and service were 5 stars, I highly recommend this place!
Naples is a perfect city for a dinner date or a lunch date. You can take a beautiful walk after dinner or lunch, check out the shops, maybe grab an ice cream or coffee on your walk from one of the many cozy ice cream shops and little cafes.
There is also another small strip of shops and restaurants along 3rd St that is another mini downtown and is just as beautiful and the last 4 restaurants are located there.
Let me know in the comments if you’ve been to any of these restaurants and which one is your favorite!
Happy travels,
