Love Gourmet Food? Eat out at Top Restaurants for Restaurant Week!

Las Vegas Restaurant Week returns – August 27 through September 2, 2012 – providing locals and tourists the unique opportunity to dine at many of the city’s best restaurants at affordable prix fixe prices while helping to support Three Square Food Bank.

Taking part in Las Vegas Restaurant Week is simple. Diners can visit any participating restaurant during the specified dates and enjoy a multi-course, prix fixe menu specially created for Las Vegas Restaurant Week. Each restaurant will create their own delicious menu offering at price points ranging from $20.12 to $50.12, with a fixed portion of the proceeds benefiting Three Square and the fight against hunger in Southern Nevada.

The Capital Grille at Fashion Show Mall, Allegro at Wynn, Charlie Palmer Steakhouse at The Four Seasons, Piero’s located off Strip and Grotto at the Golden Nugget are a few examples of the more than 80 restaurants participating in this year’s restaurant week festivities.  Offerings range from succulent steaks and seafood to French cuisine, decadent desserts and more.
