Planning a date night this winter? We have some ideas for you!

With the help of Google, Yelp, and Trip Advisor, we put together a list of restaurants in the Corridor with menus that are considered to be a little more trendy or "upscale." It includes big, popular restaurants, as well as smaller, more intimate and cozy places that you may not be familiar with. We tried to stay away from big chain restaurants and went with places that are unique to Iowa. Each restaurant on the list has a 4-star rating or higher on Google Reviews, so you know that the food is high quality! Here are some of the places you can check out for date night or Valentine's Day in 2024:
