I wrote about this hot spot when I visited in the past for lunch. But in the evening, this Disney Springs restaurant turns into a much more adult themed date night location. You can find a club atmosphere and amazing eats!

This is always a favorite among both tourists and locals. Where else can you find stilt walkers, jugglers, dancers, and live performers, as well as amazing food? If you can get a reservation, this is a perfect spot for Valentine’s Day in Orlando.

Maria and Enzo’s

This is a beautiful location that has a fun, energetic atmosphere. Did you know their pasta comes from Italy? When I visited with the Chef a few months ago, I was amazed at how authentic and fresh the ingredients were in all of their Italian dishes. For good Italian food, look no further.

When we visited Planet Hollywood, this long standing staple of Disney Springs, we had all five kids with us. And although it is an amazing spot for families, it can also be a romantic restaurant, particularly for film buffs. With movie paraphernalia everywhere, sing alongs, and great food, you can have a perfect date night at Planet Hollywood.
