I agree with Second Empire. Suggest you go "upstairs" vs the tavern on the bottom level (which really isn't a tavern). Both are wonderful, but upstairs is very quiet and romantic. It's pricey, but will make for a memorable experience and delicious meal. The tavern is great, too, but noisier and not as intimate.
Interesting that no one has mentioned the Angus Barn - not Italian but a regular favourite for special ocasions. Like others I personally prefer the Second Empire.
maggiano's at southpoint has excellent cuisine, it is a chain and at times can be crowded, but every time we've been there DH and I have been pleased. Last time we had a great waiter... he was from scotland I believe. If you make your reservations early enough, you should be able to request an upstairs table... which is more in line for a romantic dinner.
Where do you live? Food wise, Nana's is best. Four Square is also very good, and is in a pretty cool old house, so it may be a little more romantic. Both in Durham, as that is where the majority of the best restaurants are located around here.
