McLEAN, VA -- Looking for some romantic dining options for Valentine's Day? OpenTable's 100 Most Romantic Restaurants lists several restaurants in Virginia among the 100, including one in Great Falls: L'Auberge Chez Francois. The popular eatery also made OpenTable's "Top 100 Restaurants in America" list.

Here's how L'Auberge Chez Francois describes itself on OpenTable:

"Travelers in the beautiful Alsatian countryside, seek out "auberge," the little family inns that dot the roadsides, to eat well and enjoy the scenery. They know they will find fine food and glowing spirits, at an excellent value. Welcome to L'Auberge Chez François, our French country inn a short distance from the nation's capital, nestled among lush woods and fragrant gardens, that has captivated visitors for over 60 years. L'Auberge Chez François is the ideal spot to celebrate special moments, private parties, luncheons, weddings and cooking demonstrations. Our menu is extensive and full of the flavors of Alsace and traditional French cuisine. Excellent food and service, attention to detail and a casually elegant atmosphere are hallmarks that have made L'Auberge Chez François a Washington favorite! We sincerely hope that you will enjoy your visit with us. Reservations for Jacques' Brasserie at L'Auberge can be made through Open Table at L'Auberge Chez Francois-Jacques' Brasserie."
