DMV Winter Restaurant Week, hosted by the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington (RAMW), has been extended through Sunday, Jan. 28, doubling the length of the biannual celebration of the region’s restaurant industry.
More than 140 specially priced menus have been confirmed across D.C., Maryland, and Northern Virginia at participating restaurants.
The promotion details will remain unchanged for diners. Participating restaurants will continue to offer multi-course brunch and lunch menus for $25 or $35 per person, as well as multi-course dinner menus for $40, $55, or $65 per person for on-premise dining.
Additionally, several restaurants are offering cocktail, wine, and non-alcoholic pairings, offering a range of beverage choices for diners.
The Winter Restaurant Week extension is in response to recent winter storms that have made it difficult for many diners to eat out.
“The decision to extend Winter Restaurant Week is reflective of our commitment to the well-being and enjoyment of our restaurant community and its consumers,” RAMW President & CEO Shawn Townsend said in a press release. “This extension is an opportunity for more people to safely enjoy what our local restaurants have to offer, showcasing the resilience and adaptability of our industry.”
Several restaurants in Silver Spring are participating in Winter Restaurant Week, including All Set Restaurant & Bar, Matchbox, The Daily Dish, and J. Hollinger’s Waterman’s Chophouse, which was selected as a top pick by DCist:
This Silver Spring mainstay steakhouse offers both a $25 lunch and $40 dinner, three courses for each with additional a la carte options from the raw bar. For lunch, try the veggie tempura, chophouse burger, and lemon posset. At dinner, opt for a more decadent meal with clams casino, pot roast, and a pear tart.
