Westport Restaurant Week Begins Today

The Westport Weston Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce that Restaurant Week will run from Sunday September 25th through Sunday October 9th.. It’s all part of the continuing “Eat Local” campaign to promote area restaurants, which follows on the heels of the highly successful Slice of Saugatuck Festival.

 

This year Restaurant Week, two weeks, features 21 eateries offering Prix Fixe meals to suit any foodie’s interest and pocketbook. Venues from one end of Westport and Saugatuck to the other, including Southport, will once again be treating diners to a gastronomical feast.

 

“Rising out of the pandemic our restaurants are truly stretching their wings and this year we have quite the selection of them,” said WWCC Executive Director Matthew Mandell. “We want people to eat local and realize Westport has the best dining scene in Fairfield County.”

 

Instead of a single price for all places, each one has set their own prix fixe ranging from $25+ for lunch and $35+ for dinner. Some offer just lunch, others just dinner, and many are offering both. It’s all about what fits best to bring in new patrons and old friends alike.

 

Restaurant week, running for two weeks, is a tried and true event that gives restaurateurs an opportunity to show off what they do with hopes of finding new regulars. Maria Funicello, co-owner of Tuttis, a Saugatuck mainstay summed it up best, “when you come to Tuttis, you dine at my house, come, have a meal with my family.”

 

Restaurant Week is once again being sponsored by Castlekeep Advisors, WEBE 108 and WICC 600 where radio commercials and interviews to promote the event have been ongoing.

 

The full list of participating restaurants, the meals they are offering, and their menus can be found on the Chamber’s website at www.westportwestonchamber.com/restaurantweek.
