If ever there was a restaurant specifically designed for romance, it would be the seven-table Gorji. With zero televisions, no children allowed, and a dedicated server to wait on you all night long, it may be hard to go on as special a date anywhere else after this experience. Better still, the gratuity is included, so at the end of the meal you can focus on the person opposite you instead of the calculator on your Apple Watch.
How to book: Call 972-503-7080 to reserve.
Gorji has only a small handful of tables. There are no TVs, no children allowed, and a no tipping policy, so you’re free to zone in on the food and whoever’s sitting across from you. The prix-fixe menu changes weekly and showcases Mediterranean fare, with three options each for appetizers, salads, entrees, and desserts. A recent edition featured Grilled Baby Octopus dressed with watermelon, feta, and mint, and Venison Loin doused with Cognac sauce and accompanied by gnocchi. The wine list highlights lesser-known producers from Lebanon, Turkey, and Greece. Bring a date, settle in, and let your polished server take care of everything.
