• Ask for a corner or window table when reserving — mention it's Valentine's Day
• Check if the restaurant offers a special Valentine's prix-fixe menu (and the price)
• Consider February 13th (Valentine's Eve) — same ambiance, less crowding, regular prices
• If stuck last-minute, newer restaurants and neighborhood gems often have availability
• Note any dietary restrictions in your reservation comments
