What is Santa Cruz RESTAURANT Week?
Santa Cruz Restaurant Week is back for its 15th year of drawing attention to our county’s culinary excellence. The concept is simple: for one week, restaurants offer a fixed-price, three course menu for $45, $55 or $65. The menu includes three options each for appetizer, entree and dessert. This is an opportunity for Santa Cruz County restaurants to showcase traditional or new menu items to new and returning customers.
When is Santa Cruz RESTAURANT Week?
SCRW runs from Wednesday October 22 through Wednesday October 29. (OK, that’s more than a week, but who is going to complain?)
