Linger over a romantic dinner for two as the sun sinks into the Gulf of Mexico. Here's where to make a reservation for a special evening on Anna Maria Island or Longboat Key.
  • The Waterfront Restaurant: Pair clams from nearby Terra Ceia with linguine and a microbrew on Anna Maria Island's north end.
  •  
  • Beach Bistro, Euphemia Haye: These Florida Trend Golden Spoon Hall of Famers define “most romantic.” They source seafood from nearby Cortez fishing village.
  •  
  • Sign of the Mermaid: Chef-owner Andrea Spring’s chocolate raisin walnut pie won best in show at the 2010 American Pie Council/Crisco National Pie Championships. The intimate cottage where she bakes miracles daily also serves a divine dinner.
  •   
  • Island Creperie: Chef Pierre recommends the profiterole crepe – a ménage à trois involving ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate.
  •  
  • Ezra Café: Grilled skirt steak with smashed potato unites comfort with this gem of an establishment’s continental approach.
