Orange County Restaurant Week will launch Sunday, giving you an opportunity to dine at top restaurants for seven days (Sept. 26 through Oct. 2) at great prices. More than 100 restaurants in Orange County will participate in this highly anticipated culinary event.
Celebrate with a fun and free kick-off party at Prego Ristorante in Irvine from 4 to 6 p.m. on Sunday.
You can taste Prego’s famous Italian cuisine by sampling tray-passed fare, and signature cocktails from Tres Agaves tequila, Sobieski Vodka and 4 Orange Premium. A complimentary wine-tasting by Coppola Winery will allow you to experience some of the finest wines Prego has to offer.
For those wanting more more food and drinks you can order from the Happy Hour menu, or stay for dinner and enjoy Prego Ristorante’s $30 OC Restaurant Week prix-fixe menu, which includes a glass of house wine. Space is limited, so you must RSVP here.
At most restaurants, you’ll be able to enjoy a three-course prix-fixe lunch for $10, $15 and $20 per person, and dinner costs $20 to $40. It’s a great time try new additions to the restaurant line-up including Canyon Restaurant at Anaheim Hills, Raya at The Ritz Carlton in Laguna Niguel, The Lido Deck in Newport Beach, Seasons 52 at South Coast Plaza, The Catch in Anaheim, and many more.
You can make reservations online or by calling participating restaurants directly. And you can search for a restaurant at the Orange County Restaurant Week website by cuisine, location and price point.
