Ideas for a romantic dinner at home

It’s the atmosphere, the music, the glances, the candles, a little wine, and time for just the two of you. You can cook something special and new. In that case, it’s better to choose something simple to prepare so that your ideas for a romantic dinner don’t turn into a ruined evening. But what if you don’t want to stand by the stove and just want to be close to your loved one? The perfect solution is food delivery.

We’ve gathered the best ideas for a romantic dinner at home that don’t require much effort but will definitely give you an unforgettable evening. We offer several different options for dishes for a romantic dinner that will help you pleasantly surprise your partner. And yes, you *can* cook — but why, if you can order everything ready-made and focus on what really matters: your other half, tender details, and time together. Pronto’s chefs are ready to cook everything for you — let this dinner remain a pleasant memory for both of you. And Pronto couriers will deliver the dishes while you choose the music and candle color for your romantic evening.

Create the right atmosphere

Start with the basics: lighting. Soft, dimmed light or candles instantly create a romantic mood. Add background music — something gentle, jazzy, or a romantic comedy playing quietly in the background. You can lay a tablecloth, add napkins, and set beautiful glasses for wine or lemonade.

Don’t waste time in the kitchen — order delivery

Cooking yourself is romantic only if you have the mood, experience, and time. If you’d rather spend the evening not on recipes and stress, but on hugs and conversations, food delivery in Ivano-Frankivsk and 11 more cities from Pronto will be your best ally.

We have everything you need to put together the perfect menu in 5 minutes. And no pots.

Start with appetizers

If your romantic dinner at home will consist only of appetizers, make them more filling: canapés, meat or fish rolls. And if romance for you means comfort in everything, even burgers will work — especially with a fun movie.

If you’re planning a more elaborate dinner with several courses, it’s worth choosing a salad as the starter. Caprese with tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil is a light and refined dish that’s perfect for starting the evening. Or the popular Caesar salad — with chicken, iceberg lettuce, and the signature creamy sauce everyone recognizes. Sophisticated palates will appreciate seafood salads: fresh greens, seafood mix or pre-boiled shrimp, mussels, baby octopus, red tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, a bit of olive oil, and lemon juice. You can make it yourself, but it’s more cost-effective — and definitely tastier — if you order it from Pronto.

Main course – pasta or seafood pizza

The Pronto menu has perfect pastas for date nights. Carbonara for classic lovers, tender pasta with chicken and mushrooms for warm evenings together, or seafood pasta for true gastronomic pleasure.

And if you want to share one plate between the two of you, order a pizza with seafood. There you’ll always find aromatic sauces, stretchy cheese, shrimp, mussels, and red fish.

Pan-Asian cuisine – for exotic emotions

If you and your partner love discovering new things, try Pan-Asian dishes. Poke, ramen, tom yum, tyahan — you can order all of this at Pronto. It’s not only delicious, but also very atmospheric. You can even create a themed “expedition to Asia” evening with music, chopsticks, and Eastern-style table setting. Or turn on “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift” for this kind of feast.

Rolls – for those who love eating together

Sets of rolls or sushi piece by piece are a great option when you want lots of different flavors. It’s beautiful, convenient, and doesn’t require reheating. Add ginger, soy sauce, a bit of white wine — and your dinner is already ready.

Dessert – the final touch

Romance is all about a sweet ending. Choose delicate desserts: cheesecake, chocolate fondant, or tiramisu. You can share one dessert for two or arrange a mini tasting of several sweet treats.

Don’t forget about drinks — a glass of wine or a signature lemonade from Pronto will complement any dish.

Who are these ideas for?

• for her – if you want to impress your loved one with atmosphere and delicious dishes;
• for him – if you’re looking for a way to surprise without too many words;
• for a couple – if you want to spend time together without any fuss.

Serving options – simple and beautiful

You don’t need restaurant-level table setting. Even if you’re eating pizza, don’t leave it in the box — put it on a wooden board. Serve salads in your favorite bowls and arrange the rolls on a serving board. You can add some greens, napkins, and your favorite glasses. And, of course, we don’t forget the candles!

Small romantic dinner ideas that make the evening perfect

• light candles (at least one);
• turn off your phones;
• put on a playlist of romantic music or the sound of rain in the background;
• choose a movie — a comedy, a classic, or a love story;
• open a bottle of wine or make an original cocktail.

What to cook for a romantic dinner? Nothing!

Here’s the key insight: you don’t have to cook to have an unforgettable evening. Food is not the main thing — what matters most is attention, atmosphere, and love. And Pronto will take care of everything else.

And it doesn’t matter whether it’s a first date, an anniversary, or just a Tuesday — you can make the evening special. Right now, that’s in your hands at any moment. Don’t miss it.
