Restaurant Week Starts Today, Runs for 7 Days

Written By Scott Joseph On April 29, 2010

restaurant_weekThe Orlando Weekly, a local newspaper that comes out, um, once a week, kicks off its annual Restaurant Week today. Participating restaurants will offer lunch or dinner at prix fixe prixes of $10, $15, $25 or $35 depending on the restaurant and type of food. Click here to see the whole list with links to the menus.

Looking over the list — which somehow looks smaller than in years past, though I can’t say that for certain — there are a few good bargains. For example, a 10 buck lunch at Shula’s 347 or Crave, or $25 for dinner at K Restaurant or La Nuova Cucina. The $35 table d’hote will get you dinner at Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Funky Monkey Wine Company or Vines Grille & Wine bar, among others. (Laughably, The Melting Pot on Sand Lake Road is also in the $35 dinner list, which brought a you-have-got-to-be-freakin’-kidding-me reaction.)

I’ve lined up the places I’ll be visiting during the week. It’s a strict seven days, by the way, beginning today, April 29, and concluding Wednesday, May 5. Better hurry.

We hope you find our reviews and news articles useful and entertaining. It has always been our goal to assist you in making informed decisions when spending your dining dollars. If we’ve helped you in any way, please consider making a contribution to help us continue our journalism. Thank you.
