Restaurant Week provides a great opportunity for you to try new, ethnic foods at great prices. For example, in DC you can get a three-course fixed meal for $20 (lunch) or $35 (dinner).
Last night Jonathan and I had dinner with Richard and Ayanna at a popular Italian restaurant in DC. While we have had Italian food in the past, we found the entrees new to us, as the restaurant has its unique twist on Italian food. Through Restaurant Week, I have also eaten at Cuban, Indian, French and several American restaurants.
Most cities across the nation will hold Restaurant Week so do an online search to find the next one near you. However, here are a few that are taking place this month:
- Alexandria, VA (January 15 – 24)
- Baltimore, MD (January 22 – February 7)
- Bethesda, MD (January 25 – 31)
- New York, NY (January 25 – February 7)
- Philadelphia, PA (January 17 – 22)
- San Diego, CA (January 17 – 22)
- Washington, DC (ends tomorrow)
If you know of others, please post a comment.

Some DC restaurants extended Restaurant Week to has far back as Jan 31. Thursday, Anthony & I went to Cafe Atlantico, it was very good On Saturday night, Ayanna & I went to 1789 – all three dishes (with wine pairing) was great. Free valet as well. Ifelt like a big-wig
This Friday at lunch, I’m trying Hudson on 20th & M. The menu looks tasty but know very little about the place.
