Several California restaurants ranked among the most romantic eateries in the country.

Reservation website OpenTable analyzed over 12.4 million reviews from restaurants across the United States to showcase the places that have “world-class cuisine, attentive (but never intrusive) service, and a unique ambiance.”

Eleven places across California made the list: “The 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in America 2022.”

The list was released just in time for Valentine’s Day — and it features restaurants with oceanfront views, garden patios and cozy dining rooms.

Guests can choose from French cuisine, Italian and fine-dining steakhouses to seafood with a view. All options come highly rated by OpenTable reviewers.
