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 muster 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 a calculator.
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.
