With Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s, Lunar New Year, Fat Tuesday, and more all landing around the same time, February is stacked with reasons to celebrate.
If you’re searching for inspiration or if Valentine’s Day has arrived before you expected (it’s on Saturday, by the way), you’ll find plenty of options for ways to celebrate at Spring Branch District businesses. From elegant prix fixe dinners to casual heart-shaped treats, here’s your guide to a memorable Valentine’s Day.

Asian-Inspired Cuisine
The Blind Goat (8145 Long Point Rd) invites you to fall in love with every bite during their Valentine’s Special, available February 13-15. The three-course tasting menu is a culinary journey that promises both romance and flavor.
Expect tender filet mignon with ube mash, spicy pasta with Sichuan mapo tofu sauce, dark chocolate mousse tart with olive oil drizzle, and strawberry shortcake with matcha dusting. Your palate (and your date) will surely be impressed. Limited spots are available, so book now at exploretock.com/the-blind-goat-houston.
Prefer something more casual? The all-new Little Goat Bar offers outdoor patio seating with a fresh $11 cocktail menu, $3 martinis (limit 2 per person), and light snacks.
Casual Bites & Treats
Not every Valentine’s celebration requires white tablecloths. Sometimes the most romantic moments happen over coffee and pastries or playful comfort food.
Cambrian Coffee (9461 Hammerly Blvd) invites you to share a Maple Chili Sausage Roll with someone special. Visit Monday through Saturday, 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, to experience this unique delight together.
Meanwhile, Tacos Dona Lena (8788 Hammerly Blvd) is serving heart-shaped gorditas through Valentine’s Day Weekend. Because sometimes the perfect way to someone’s heart really is through their stomach via a yummy snack shaped like a heart.
Seafood Celebrations
If you and your Valentine prefer to get your hands dirty, Ragin’ Cajun has the perfect option.
Love is in the boil! Dig into Ragin’ Cajun’s Cupid’s Seafood Boil for $56.99. Share the love with 2 pounds of Louisiana crawfish, 2 snow crab clusters, ½ pound Gulf Coast shrimp, plus sausage, corn, and potatoes. Find them at 1725 Wirt Rd, Houston.
No matter your style or budget, the Spring Branch District has everything you need to make this Valentine’s Day special. Love is definitely in the air—and on the menu.
