WalletHub recently posted their 2019 list of the Best and Worst Cities to celebrate Valentine's Day. You can see the complete list by clicking here, however, here's a spoiler alert for you...Detroit made the list! Unfortunately, Motor City was almost dead last. The list factored in several things including the proximity of florists, cost of a romantic meal, and the number of jewelry stores.

After seeing this list, I decided to do a little research around the office to find out which places in the Lansing area my co-workers considered to be a 'romantic restaurant'. (This could be very helpful for you this Valentine's Day.) There are actually many choices and of course, many people have a different version of 'romantic'. (Also, sometimes getting a straight answer out of people can be a bit challenging.) There were people that mentioned Dagwood's, P.F. Chang's, Leo's Lodge, Deluca's and even the McDonald's dollar menu got some love. However, in no particular order, here are the Top 5 Romantic Restaurants in the Lansing area.
