The Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington has announced the roster of restaurants participating in Winter Restaurant Week from Monday, Jan. 16, through Sunday, Jan. 22. The area’s signature winter dining promotion invites diners to enjoy specially priced lunch, brunch, and dinner options.
“Winter Restaurant Week was created as an economic driver, encouraging loyal diners, newcomers, and visitors to our area to support our restaurants during a slower time for the industry. It has since evolved into a turnkey promotion offering something for everyone with expanded offerings, different ways to dine out or stay in, and the addition of creative beverage pairings,” said Shawn Townsend, president and CEO of RAMW.
Participating restaurants offer multi-course brunch and lunch menus for $25 per person, and multi-course dinner menus for $40 or $55 per person for on-premises dining. Many restaurants are also offering RW-To-Go dinner meals and cocktail pairings, giving more variety to diners wanting to partake in the program. RW-To-Go dinner packages are available at two price points: $70 or $100 for two people and $140 or $200 for four people.
