Off down to visit my girlfriend this weekend and am looking for recommendations for good restaurants not necessarily for 14th but just over the weekend. Any ideas?

Cheers

It would be much better if you wait a few weeks instead of following the heard a sitting in a packed restaurant with 50 other couples.

Sorry I hate Valentines day, my romance is not dictated by a card company

Had some great food in the Rummer on Sunday near St Nicks. They are full on Valentine's according to the chalk board. Drinks are a bit overpriced though. Or have a wander round the harbour and pop into the pump house for posh-ish or the rose of Denmark for quality pub food in Hotwells

For lunch bring her to my cx race at a very beautiful venue. Wood fired pizza & local ale plus racing and expo, nice cotswold walk round the estate after.

Cherry Duck every time. Good food, not silly prices.

For restaurants (although personally I'd go another night) try one of these
Flinty Red
Birch just off north street
Rosamarino
Flour and Ash
Souk Kitchen
The Ox

Where does she live in Bristol? That might dictate your choice.
ZaZu's is very good, the Glos Old Spot also , but that's a pub. If you like Indian, try Hare Krishnan's on Zetland Rd

Make sure you go to the cider boat round the corner from Mud Dock; http://applecider.co.uk/ - get some of their mulled cider. It's a phenomenally awesome beaker of loveliness!

The Mayflower chinese restaurant is a hidden gem. Great food. Less great surroundings (but that was part of the charm for my wife & I) http://www.mayflower-bristol.co.uk/
