Dinner for Two is a family owned restaurant that has a comfortable, intimate atmosphere for parties large or small. Our local 'regulars' call us `a great value in fine dining`. We are happy to host dinners for organizations, or private celebrations from 2 to 60.
Chef Andy Barnes, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, has crafted a menu that he calls `eclectic continental`. With flavors that span the globe, but remember that simple, fresh foods taste best.
Our location at the southwest corner of San Francisco and Guadalupe Street is convenient to the Plaza and downtown hotels. A small parking lot is located at the restaurant, but another lot called Jefferson Place is just 2 doors west on San Francisco Street. There is no charge for parking weekends and after 5 PM weeknights.
Grass fed organic beef, the freshest fish, local products whenever possible, and seasonal foods are the standard. Everything, from soup to beignets, has been house made, so that special diets are easily accommodated. Our Bread is made fresh everyday, and is a favorite with our local guests.
Along with the Classic Menu, that includes Soup, Salad, Fresh Bread, and Entree; we have also designed a `Fusion on Small Plates` Menu. This is made for experimenting with new treats, and sharing tastes with your partner. Appetizers, First Courses, Entrees, and Desserts are included in this adventurous menu.
Dinner for Two has won the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for the past 6 years for its Wine List that encompasses wines from around the world to complement a menu that will satisfy everyone in your party.
Live Classical Music is presented every Friday and Saturday evening 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Music that complements conversation and doesn`t overpower it.

`Earlybridge Duo`: Gail Robertson on violin & Chase Morrison on cello Saturday
