OC Restaurant Week is here again, from Feb. 27 through March 5. This year’s culinary event, the fifth of its kind, includes a wide variety of options, from upscale and fine dining, to casual and family friendly establishments, according to OCInsite.
During OC Restaurant Week, the restaurants that are participating will offer special three-course menus, many with a cocktail or signature item at no additional charge. Each restaurant will have the freedom and flexibility to showcase its best offerings by talented chefs who will, no doubt, personalize each menu to reflect their culinary style.
Santa Ana Restaurants that are participating include:
- Antonello Ristorante
- Geisha House
- Memphis at the Santana
- Original Mike’s
- Royal Kyber
- South Coast Winery Restaurant & Tasting Room
- Tangata
Participating restaurants will offer prix-fixe menus within three price categories: lunch for $10, $15 or $20, and dinner for $20, $30 or $40. Guests will have the opportunity to search restaurants by location and price point, as well as make reservations online.
Geisha House is offering half off all of their food this Monday and Tuesday, and no corkage fee from Tuesday through Thursday. And here are their Restaurant Week specials:
