Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Wake Forest

Amalia’s is a lovely, one-of-a-kind restaurant that we choose for special occasions. The customer service is incredible and personal, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is quaint and quiet, perfect for a special occasion. We love the fireplaces in each room, the history of the home, and the attentiveness of the staff.

This place is a real treat. It is expensive but it is a real food experience and not just a meal. Incredible food. We had 4 courses, and then they bring a little something between or before all courses, such as little breads, a pre-dessert, they even brought these little 'corn dogs' that were actually duck, and presented so that they looked like the plant called cat-tails. It is not cheap, but it is an experience that you will like talk about and remember for a long time.

I had a wonderful birthday dinner here with incredible food and service! Claire, our server, was kind and attentive to detail. Thank you for a lovely experience!

This was my first time at Mulino my wife wanted to come here for her Birthday we were a little upset at first because we made reservation for 5:30 a week in advance but I guess they had a wedding party already booked and they called us the day before our reservation to push our time back an hour needless to say I was not happy but I must say the food and the service was outstanding enough that the time no longer matter to me we are making a family reservation as we speak for my oldest sons birthday on February the 15th this is an outstanding restaurant with outstanding service

My wife and I recently enjoyed an exceptional dinner at Ruth’s Chris Steak House in Raleigh, NC, and we couldn’t be more impressed. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm, inviting, and perfect for a special evening out. The service was impeccable—our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations. Each dish was prepared to perfection. The steaks, cooked to our exact specifications, were melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and the sizzling butter finish took them to another level. The sides and desserts complemented the meal beautifully, with every bite leaving us eager for the next. The attention to detail and quality of ingredients truly set this experience apart. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for an incredible dining experience, Ruth’s Chris in Raleigh is the place to go. We’ll definitely be back!
