Date Night Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated
Some of the best date nights are actually pretty simple — good food, a comfortable place to sit and talk, or something lighthearted that helps break up the routine. Utah has no shortage of spots that we love because they help make connection feel easy.
Whether it’s a first date, a long-overdue night out, or a “we need to get out of the house” evening, these are a few local favorites worth keeping in your back pocket for some great date night ideas.
Salt Lake County Favorites
- Porch (Daybreak)
Comfort food, a cozy setting, and an easy walk around the lake after dinner — always a good go-to choice. - Oquirrh Restaurant — Salt Lake City
Warm, contemporary, and relaxed. Perfect for those “we should do this more often” nights. - Copper Onion — Downtown SLC
Great atmosphere and consistently good food. It’s popular for a reason!
Utah County Favorites
- Communal — Provo
Farm-to-table, beautiful lighting, and a slower pace that we love because it invites you to linger. - Black Sheep Café — Provo
Bold Southwestern flavors and a lively atmosphere but somehow it still manages to feel private and unique. - Thanksgiving Point — Lehi
We love this one because dinner paired with a walk through the gardens ( or one of the museums) makes the night feel a little more special.
Davis & Weber County Favorites
- Roosters Brewing — Ogden & Layton
Casual, upbeat, and easy — great for conversation without trying too hard. - Union Grill — Ogden
A local classic with cozy booths and comfort food that never disappoints us. - The Monarch — Ogden
Dinner paired with an art gallery stop — unexpected and surprisingly fun.
If You Want Something More Playful
- Topgolf — Midvale
- Jazz game downtown
- Wiseguys Comedy Club — SLC / Ogden
- Salsa or ballroom dance class (honestly a great reset for couples)
Date night doesn’t fix life — but it does create a little breathing room inside busy life.
