Reserve Valentine’s Day Tables Now At Bethesda's Top Restaurants

BETHESDA, MD — Valentine’s Day is on a Saturday this year, and if you haven’t made reservations for dinner out at one of Bethesda's best local restaurants, do it now.

About 39 percent of U.S. adults plan an evening out to celebrate Valentine’s Day, according to a National Retail Federation survey. Because Feb. 14 falls on a Saturday this year, Bethesda's restaurants will likely be busy through the weekend, as well as a day or two earlier than the holiday.

Many, but not all, local restaurants handle reservations through OpenTable, an online service. Romantic restaurants typically fill up a week before Valentine’s Day.

Here are a few still accepting Valentine’s Day reservations, according to OpenTable:

• Not Your Average Joe's Bethesda
• Pisco y Nazca Bethesda
• Seasons 52
• Mykonos Grill
• City Perch Kitch + Bar - North Bethesda
