romantic dinner

Intimate evening feast

A romantic dinner is a meal shared by two people in an intimate setting, typically featuring candlelight, wine, and unhurried conversation.

The phrase implies courtship or celebration of a relationship: He planned a romantic dinner for their anniversary.

Restaurant reservations "for two" often signal this intent, as does cooking an elaborate meal at home for a partner.
