If you’re looking for an intimate dinner experience with someone special for Valentine’s Day, or any occasion, check out OpenTable, an online restaurant reservation service, which recently named three local Hawai‘i restaurants in the Top 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in America. The local winners included Gerard’s Restaurant on Maui and ‘Ulu Ocean Grill and Sushi Lounge on Hawai‘i Island.

The romantic eateries were named from over 20,000 possible candidates nationwide. OpenTable narrowed their list by analyzing five million restaurant reviews, accounting for “romantic factors” including food, ambience and service. The list is organized alphabetically without rankings.
