Now in its 11th year, Santa Cruz Restaurant Week and Good Times are pleased to once again announce the fall lineup for the the tastiest week of the year! With culinary options ranging from contemporary Californian cuisine to Italian, Hawaiian and Sri Lankan, community enthusiasm about Santa Cruz Restaurant Week continues to grow with each year’s varied menus now offering a range of organic, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options.
For 2019, Santa Cruz Restaurant Week will span eight nights, from October 16-23, and follow a model similar to other restaurant weeks across the country.
No vouchers are required to enjoy special fixed-priced, three-course menus at participating restaurants, which may select either a $25, $35 or $45 per-person price point (not including tax, gratuity or beverages). Menus include three options each for appetizer, entrée and dessert. Each restaurant will promote only one price point. (Regular menu items are also available.)
As always, the goal of Santa Cruz Restaurant Week is to spotlight local food culture in Santa Cruz County, allowing restaurateurs and chefs to showcase fresh ingredients and creativity. Consider it an excuse to try a new restaurant for the first time, or even take a test run of new dishes at a favorite restaurant. For the restaurant community, the event is a chance to work collectively to showcase the region’s increasingly diverse culinary offerings.
A list of participating restaurants with featured menus are continually updated on www.santacruzrestaurantweek.com. A Santa Cruz Restaurant Week Guide including a full list of menus will also be published in the Oct. 16 edition of Good Times.
