"Hey! I think we misunderstood each other yesterday. Just you and I for dinner. you do like [x restuarant] right? Haha, talk to you then!
No offense, I'm really not trying to come off as mean, but I don't like any part of your text! Sorry, I'll try to provide constructive criticism.
"Hey!" - this is a text, you're not seeing her for the first time in 5 years walking down the street - you don't need such proper greetings and why the (!) exclamation point?
"I think we misunderstood each other yesterday." - you don't need to clarify anything. If she texted you back later and asked "wait so is it just us or are there more people?" then you can answer her with that.
"Just you and I for dinner" - way too concrete. She was pushing the "just as friends?" hint and you're trying to cement that it's a date, which is odd.
"you do like [x restuarant] right?" - just pick a restaurant and tell her where you two are going. Don't need her approval (unless of course it's an all-meat buffet or a rare type of cuisine). Or pick two and ask her to choose one.
"Haha, talk to you then!" - again no need for proper farewells and exclamation points.
A good text for you would've been:
"hey ___ i'm driving so pick you up around 7ish, please be ready. Are you more in the mood for x cuisine or x cuisine?" You would then be able to elicit some sort of response and measure her interest in you and the date
Then:
"awesome, "x cuisine" sounds good (whatever cuisine she doesn't choose)."

I hear you. My text was the "way" we talk back and forth, but yours sounds much more mature.
At this point I have no idea if she's going to go or not.
Maybe if you text her a lot more, then you'll have an answer.
What? That's not what Im going to do.
