We are halfway in January, and a month away from Valentine’s Day! I know for some people every day is like Valentine’s Day, but for those who are looking to impress their loved ones this Valentine’s Day, I have come up with the list to celebrate Valentine’s Day in Chicago. I hope you and your loved one have the best time together this coming Valentine’s Day in Chicago.

Ideas to Celebrate Valentine’s Day in Chicago

Celeste Restaurant and Bar Chicago

Dinner & Dance at Celeste

Celeste is one of the romantic restaurants in Chicago. Celeste offers cozy, romantic and intimate atmosphere, featuring three floors with different menu and mood.

I would recommend you to reserve a table on their second floor, the glamorous, for dinner! The second floor has very limited tables so if you are planning a date on this Valentine’s Day in Chicago then I insist you to reserve immediately.

At Celeste, kitchen is open until 3:00 am, so take your time to enjoy drinks and dance! Make sure to ask about timings at the time of reservation. The Celeste has been recognized as “River North’s Sexiest 5 AM Bar” on Chicago magazine.

For backup plan, if you do not get table at Celeste then I would recommend you to check out Geja’s Cafe for dinner.

Odyssey Dinner Cruise on Lake Michigan

Dinner Cruise on Lake Michigan

Plan your evening with Odyssey dinner cruise on Lake Michigan. Odyssey dinner cruise features 2-3 hours cruise on Lake Michigan with 3-course plated meal. Make your loved one feel special by taking her/him out on Lake Michigan for a fine dining, complimented with the most breathtaking views of Chicago skyline.

Guest also get unlimited non-alcoholic beverages including coffee, hot tea, iced tea and water. These dinner cruises on Lake Michigan tends to get sold out pretty quickly as it approaches Valentine’s Day, so I recommend you to reserve a spot on one of those dinner cruises in Chicago.
