Valentine's Day Suggestions

Great Dallas places to visit on Valentine's Day no matter your relationship status

The day of pastel conversation hearts and red roses is fast approaching. How will you spend Valentine’s Day? If you’re single, coupled up or planning on celebrating this love-filled holiday with family, there’s a lot of fun to be had.

Here are some ideas for Valentine’s Day activities, courtesy of your cupid-loving friends at Dave Perry Miller & Associates.

The Singles Scene
Uptown has a diverse mix of bars, restaurants, theaters and galleries, and it boasts an adventurous singles scene. (You don’t even have to drive yourself around; with a pedicab, you can get from A to B in royal style.) There are loads of places to stop in for cocktails, and the Katy Trail is packed with those who are actively inclined. If you wish to treat yourself to some Valentine’s Day “me” time, make an appointment at one of the many serene spas for a relaxing treatment.

Family Date Night
Valentine’s Day can be a family affair, and if you visit The Lot in Lakewood, everyone’s bound to feel blissful. This urban restaurant features a children’s garden and play area, corn hole (bean bag toss) and foosball area, dining porch, and beer garden with craft brews. There’s live music, a delicious taco cart and plenty of room for pups too.

Romantic Encounter
Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to bring on the romance — and exquisite cuisine. In the Park Cities area, there are endless fine dining experiences, from Al Biernat’s to Bistro 31. Complete the Valentine’s Day tradition by spoiling your true love with indulgent truffles and chocolates. We recommend experiencing the decadence from Dude, Sweet Chocolate.

Good Friends Get-together
Celebrate the love of great friends this Valentine’s Day with a get-together with the girls or guys. Bishop Arts District, located near Kessler Park in Oak Cliff, is a casual destination for dining, shopping and culture. Try Hattie’s, Bolsa or Lucia for a delicious dinner and charming neighborhood atmosphere.

What are your plans for Valentine’s Day? Share your thoughts with us in the space below.

Traffic Advisory

I-30 ramp closure in downtown Dallas will detour drivers until 2028

At 10 pm Sunday, November 15 the westbound I-30 on-ramp from Canton Street/Akard Street will shut down until at least spring 2028.

Traffic alert for drivers on Interstate 30: Beginning at 10 pm Sunday, November 15, the westbound I-30 on-ramp from Canton Street/Akard Street will shut down and remain closed until spring 2028, TxDOT says.

Detour signs will be in place, directing traffic to use the onramp at Harwood Street for access to westbound I-30 during this time.

The closure is part of the ongoing I-30 Canyon corridor improvement project.

As a reminder, the following closures remain in place as part of this project:

  • All lanes of Botham Jean/Lamar Boulevard are closed and detoured at I-30 through late 2027.
  • Griffin Boulevard is narrowed to one lane in each direction at I-30 through early 2028.
  • All lanes of Cesar Chavez Boulevard are closed and detoured at I-30 through late 2028.
  • All lanes of Cadiz Street are closed and detoured at I-30. It will be rebuilt on a new alignment and reopen later in the project.
  • All lanes of Akard Street are closed and detoured at I-30 through summer 2028.
  • Good Latimer Expressway is narrowed to one lane in each direction at I-30 through early 2028.

According to TxDOT, drivers should plan ahead for extra travel time. No pedestrian access is allowed inside the closed work zones.

The I-30 Canyon project, between the I-35E and I-45 interchanges, is expected to be complete in 2031, weather permitting. Future scheduled lane and ramp closures for this project will be posted in DriveTexas.org as information becomes available.

For everyone's safety, TxDOT urges drivers to use caution in work zones by setting aside distractions, following posted speed limits, and being alert to slower traffic and crews in the area.
