If you're planning a special night out near Chicago, I suggest you look toward Rosemont. I’ve learned that romance doesn’t have to mean big-city hustle. Sometimes it’s about cozy corners, candlelight, and a quiet table for two just outside the buzz. Whether you’re celebrating something big or just slipping away for a midweek date night, Rosemont has some surprisingly lovely spots. I’ve found everything from intimate steakhouses to elegant Italian nooks, and I think you’ll feel the spark too.
