North Texas’ largest culinary event and the nation’s second longest running restaurant week campaign, the DFW Restaurant Week officially kicks off Aug. 5-11, with most of the restaurants extending dining for additional weeks, through Sept. 1. Many restaurants also offer a head start on dining with DFW Restaurant Week Preview Weekend, Aug. 1-4. Explore a variety of cuisines with premier restaurants across Dallas, Tarrant, Collin and Denton counties through an expanded selection of prix-fixe menu dining options – including lunch, weekend brunch, dinner and Signature Experience dinners. Approximately 20 percent of the cost of each meal will be donated to NTFB in the Dallas area or Lena Pope in the Tarrant area.
