Charlotte Restaurant Week 2013 (Ruth: restaurants, costs, eat)

[Jake Ryan]

Restaurant week is back January 18 - 27 2013. The good places will fill up fast What a great way to try something new or visit a favorite for $30!!

Where are you going?

Charlotte Restaurant Week

When did they announce this? I just looked at one place I had been trying to go and there isn't one available time the entire week.

I like restaurant week, but the disparity in value between the restaurants cracks me up. I could easily eat at most of these places for under $30 but then places like Ruth Chris, I never walk away for under 70 bones.;

I just saw it on Twitter yesterday and went to the website and made reservations at 2 places I have been wanting to try without any problem on a weekend at prime time (Fiamma & 5Church).

BS, you're right I went to the Captial Grille last time which usually costs about $120 for 2 so, for $60.00 it's a great deal + they don't cook their steaks in butter

Must have just had them blocked off at first, checked again last night and most times were available. But thanks for starting the thread to remind us!

Wanted to go to Del Frisco and of course no reservations during the time period.

When did you check? That was where I was talking about in my earlier post and last night showed pretty good availability.

Yesterday. I plugged in 6pm on the second Sat. It said no availability and then it looked around that time for the whole month. The time period of restaurant week it didn't show any availability.

I've found that often if you call them, they have open times even if you can't find it online. Especially if you are looking at Open Table.

I tried again through open table and found a time.
