Best Romantic Restaurants in Wheeling

We return to Altius for our anniversary each year. Only missing a few due to Covid and the reconstruction. We enjoy the service, food and atmosphere every time. They always go above and beyond making the evening even more special with chef gifts etc. Looking forward to next year! Thanks as always Altius!!

We had a wonderful Valentine's meal! I had the Moroccan Lamb with Risotto. It was wonderfully tender and full of flavor. We came from out of town and didnt know what to expect but we felt like the food definitely rivals that of bigger city fare.

After a highly anticipated trip to Trace Chophouse at Ogelby, we left more than satisfied. Started with the bone marrow and clams casino, both delicious! Next was lobster bisque, safe to say there was nothing left the spoon could retrieve. We shared the A5 Wagyu, literally melted in the mouth. Highly recommend! Then came the ribeye. Perfectly cooked. Could’ve been a little thicker but all in all very good. It was accompanied by the Diane sauce, also wonderful. For sides we got the mash potatoes (riser) and creamed spinach. Possibly best creamed spinach I’ve ever had. Service was amazing, Kristen/Kirsten went above and behind. It’s hard for me to give Ogelby any kind of praise, but the did a wonderful job tonight.

Our first experience will not be our last! We live a few hours away and planned a weekend getaway. Everything from the ambiance, service, and food was impeccable! Check in and valet were seamless. Sitting on the swings waiting to be called to our table was a total vibe! We were seated below the bar right at the entrance. At first I had really wished we were upstairs but the food and ambiance made me forget right away! We started with the bread board appetizer which was delivered by one of the managers, Shakur. This impressed me because he was interacting with the guests and you could tell he wanted to make sure our experience was satisfactory! The breads were delicious and the spreads were perfect compliments! I had the haddock and my husband had the lobster mac and cheese. We were expecting small portions for the fine dining price—we were WRONG! We were shocked at how much food arrived and we had to box up a big portion of everything (appetizer, meals, dessert) that we ordered. To finish, we had to order the Pittsburgh cookie table! Were the cookies the best cookies we’ve ever had? No. Am I still glad we ordered it? Absolutely! I especially liked the heart shaped cookies. They were delicious! I must try brunch next!

The Valentines surf & turf meal was fantastic! Very good food & the price was great! Rebecca was our waitress & was very attentive. Love seeing Glen whenever we are there! Great place to eat!
