Georgia is packed with great restaurants, and many people are probably making plans — if they haven’t already — to dine out over Valentine’s Day weekend.

There are so many options that making a selection might be overwhelming.

Luckily, that’s where Eat This, Not That! comes in.

“With that in mind, we scoured reviews, talked to locals, and looked back on our own travels around the country to put together a definitive list of the most romantic restaurants in the United States,” the site explains.

Eat This, Not That! broke down the most romantic restaurants in the country state-by-state.

Though some might expect the No. 1 romantic restaurant in the Peach State to serve customers in the capital, the best one is actually in Athens.

Eat This, Not That! staff deemed Five and Ten the most romantic restaurant in Georgia, settled in Athens.

“With a heated patio in a beautiful historic house, Top Chef regular Hugh Acheson's James Beard award-winning Athens mainstay is an unfussy delight for a romantic dinner. We think the pimento cheese with bacon marmalade is the perfect starter,” Eat This, Not That! reads.

Five and Ten is located at 1073 S. Milledge Ave. Reservations are available online.

The restaurant also offers Valentine’s Day meal kits for two.
