It is always love season in Southwest Florida and everyone is looking for places to impress their date, but I keep hearing people complain all the time about not knowing where to take their partner for dinner. So, here is a list of five different restaurant for all types of dates that you can pick from, this list includes some of my favorites in Fort Myers.

  1. Ember Korean Steakhouse
    They take a contemporary approach to traditional Korean BBQ and also offer sushi and craft cocktails. This is a great option for a high end date in Fort Myers.
    What to get: Butcher’s feast, kimchi fried rice, shishitos, and green goddess roll.

Table with a grill in the middle. The grill is surrounded by side dishes such as macaroni salad, a house salad, onions, pickled daikon radish, tofu, kimchi, and Korean bbq sauces.

2. King’s Kitchen
King’s Kitchen is a restaurant in downtown Fort Myers that has a rustic feel to it and serves international comfort foods, perfect for a date night to impress This is one of Southwest Florida’s “hidden” gems.
What to get: Loaded tostones, seafood ceviche, churrasco, and their sweet plantain fosters -a scrumptious take on a classic dessert-.

Open faced steak sandwich. On one side there is the steak over french baguette bread, on the other is tomatoes and lettuce on top of bread. There is also french fries, a small salad, and ketchup on the tray.

3. Caffe da Michele
Located inside Miromar Outlets, Caffe da Michele is a cozy restaurant serving Italian classics. They host a wine tasting once a month and its owner will give you the whole Italian treatment. This is definitely one of my favorite places in town.
What to get: Grilled artichoke, Gnocchi di Patate alla Sorrentina, and their table side tiramisu.

Silver pan full of gnocchi covered in a red pasta sauce with mozzarella and basil, on top of a red plate.

4. Ford’s Garage
This is one is a classic for people that like a more low key kind of date, eat some burgers, and drink some beers. Ford’s Garage offers a great variety of burgers always cooked to perfection and super juicy.
What to get: Pulled pork nachos, Model A burger, and Mushroom Swiss burger.

Two burgers on the same plate The first one has bacon, arugula, red onion, American cheese, and an egg on top. The other has Swiss cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes, and red onion on top.

5. MAKS Asian Kitchen
Another classic and another one of my favorites here. MAKS on Daniel’s is great Asian cuisine and sushi spot. Their food is great, service is on point, and there is something for everyone.
What to get: Gyoza, Kani-su, pineapple seafood rice, and molten lava cake with ice cream.

Chocolate lava cake topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and chocolate syrup drizzle, on top of a grey plate.
