The highest Zagat-rated restaurant in the Cleveland metro area is also one of the most romantic.

The soft lighting and romantic atmosphere make this far west side bistro an ideal proposal spot. Chez Francois is open Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 9 p.m., Saturday from 5 to 10 p.m. and Sunday from 4 to 8 p.m. The restaurant is closed on Monday.

Edgewater Beach Park

6500 Cleveland Memorial Shoreway
Cleveland, OH 44102
(216) 881-8141

With its breathtaking views of Lake Erie and the Cleveland skyline, Edgewater Beach Park is an ideal place for a romantic beach marriage proposal. It is especially beautiful at night, when the romantic evening sky’s backdrop of twinkling stars accents the bright city lights, or during dusk as the bright sun falls picturesquely into the waters of the lake.

Viaduct Park

Willis Street
Bedford, OH 44146

Located in the city of Bedford on Cleveland’s far east side, Viaduct Park provides the ideal setting for a romantic jaunt that provides a lovely waterfall, stone bridge and bubbling brook. The serene setting is beautiful throughout the year, but is especially breathtaking during the fall when the foliage begins to turn intense shades of orange, red and yellow. Viaduct Park is open daily from dawn until dusk.
