The language of love this Valentine’s Day can be delivered via food.
The companies with offers to celebrate the day of love and friendship range from sit-down restaurants to fast-casual and fast-food joints.
Carraba’s Italian Grill
Carraba’s Italian Grill, for instance, rolled out a four-course Valentine’s dinner for two for dine-in customers. The deal, which lasts through Sunday, costs $65, per the chain’s website.
The meal provides one appetizer, a soup or salad for each person, two entrees and a dessert.

Outback Steakhouse also has a four-course menu for the love-focused holiday. It became available on Monday and will stay on the chain’s menu through Sunday, carrying a starting price of $30 per person.
There’s also an opportunity to score a gift card for those who share a photo of their special Outback dinner with the company’s social media accounts.
HOOTERS
On actual Valentine’s Day, Hooters said it will give out a “Wing Fling” of 10 free boneless wings to customers that buy 10 wings of “any style.” The promotion “includes the lower-priced wings on the house, with one sauce or rub per 10 wings,” the company said.
PANERA BREAD
Meanwhile, bagel sandwich lovers can take advantage of a “buy-one-get-one-free” deal at Panera Bread the day before Valentine’s Day and on the holiday itself.
Through that two-day-long “BAEgel” deal, the fast-casual chain is throwing in a complimentary additional Asiago Bagel Stack sandwich to reward members who purchase one of its new Asiago Bagel Stacks, Panera said in a press release. Panera debuted the Asiago Bagel Stacks last month ahead of National Bagel Day.
They must use the promo code “BAEGEL” to cash-in on the offer.
SUBWAY
Another chain known for sandwiches, Subway, began a BOGO deal of its own on Monday for Subway eaters to “share with their Valentines,” according to a press release.

SHAKE SHACK
There’s also a BOGO Valentine’s promotion at Shake Shack “whether it’s love, a situationship, or just good company” starting Tuesday, Shack Shack said in a blog post. It centers on Shake Shack’s SmokeShack burger.
