How hungry are you Chicago? In its fifth incarnation, Chicago Restaurant Week is back to tackle our appetite for world-class cuisine in the Windy City.
Starting today through Sunday, February 26 you’ll be able to dine at a discount with prix fixe menus ranging from $22 for lunch and $33 – $44 for dinner. With over 200 participating eateries, the lineup is appealing to any palate whether you’re in the mood for big name players or reliably favorite restos.
Foodies don’t play around, so make sure you snag a remaining reservation before attempting a Restaurant Week walk-in.
If you were late to the table on Restaurant Week this year, start whetting your appetite for Chicago Chef Week. Next month, from March 18-23, nearly 50 chef-driven establishments will host another prix fixe offering. Lunch menus run $22 and 3-course dinners cost $39.
With so many good eats on the horizon, let’s hope it’s enough to keep Chicago sated until the official start of hot dog season on opening day.
