H and I are fast approaching our one year anniversary (yay!) and we are wanting to go somewhere close, but spend a night away. Our plan right now is to have dinner at a nice restaurant and then spend the night at a hotel. We aren't committed to anywhere in particular at this point, but are looking for some suggestions for a nice plate to eat (we kinda want it to be something special). We are open to Dayton, Kentucky or surrounding areas. The only real criteria we have is that we don't want the drive to be more than 1 & 1/2 hours each way. Any suggestions for a good place to eat would be appreciated, then I can scour for a nice hotel. TIA!

We always enjoy going to Louisville for a night or 2 just to get away. We have never went for a romantic dinner there, just caught a comedy show at 4th street live, dinner at whatever random restaurant and we typically go when Churchill Downs is running so we can go there during the day. Even if you don't do Churchill there is SO much to do in Louisville.
We love any of Ruby's restaurants, but we particularly like Carlo & Johnny in Blue Ash...fun, yet romantic atmosphere and they have a bar/dance area with good bands on the weekends (not cheesy, bit of an older crowd) http://www.jeffruby.com/carlojohnny.php
Prima Vista is a nice, romantic place with a great view! http://www.pvista.com/
Also, if looking for a weekend trip - reco Indianapolis...lots of fun stuff there to do and reco St. Elmo Steakhouse downtown!!!
OK, so I don't have any restaurant recs. However, for Mark's birthday one year I got us a room at Wildwood Inn in Florence. They have all kinds of theme suites. We stayed in the ice cave room; the entire room was made to look like an ice cave, plus there was a hot tub in the room. It was so fun and pretty romantic. They have an indoor pool area that's a lot of fun, too, although overrun with kids so not so romantic there.
Or....I've never stayed here but I want to sooo bad.....Sybaris Pool Suites in Indianapolis has rooms you can book with a POOL. In. The. Room!! Hmm....maybe I'll do that for our first anniversary.....
