As Huntsville continues to expand and evolve, one of the perks of that growth is an abundance of restaurant choices.
While there are a plethora of great options when it comes to chain restaurants, many in town are locally owned, and provide for a great date night for local couples.
5 Local Choices For the Perfect Huntsville Date
#1 Thai Garden
Located in the Five Points area, Thai Garden is a longstanding Huntsville favorite. Featuring an extensive menu of Thai dishes, this is the go-to spot for many looking to have an authentic experience.
There are many spicy plates for your wild side, but if you’re looking for a safe and delicious selection, go with the Pad Prig Goong!
#2 Yoshi Sushi Fusion
Just a short drive down the mountain to Hampton Cove, Yoshi Sushi Fusion has quickly become a hip and trendy place for dinner.
The extensive menu allows for adventure, but if you’re looking for an especially tasty dish, try the locally named Hampton Roll.
#3 Viet Cuisine
This restaurant has been on Jordan Lane near the UAH campus for quite some time, but has recently moved across the street into the former Frizzle’s location.
The new building and decor is a great excuse to stop by for a fancy lunch, which should include one of their great Pho plates and a bubble tea.
#4 Taqueria El Cazador
If you haven’t had the Number One from the Taco Bus, well, you haven’t lived.
While El Cazador’s trucks and picnic areas are fun, their tacos, and an authentic Mexican Coke are great to bring home for a night in with dinner and a movie.
#5 Happy Tummy
No Saturday afternoon date at Lowe Mill A&E is complete without a lunch at this great diner. Not only is the menu extremely tasty, but also has great healthy options.
My personal pick is usually the “Don’t Mess With Texas” wrap, complete with just a little bit of a BBQ taste.
