Restaurant Week - July 10 - 19

[BRKLYN2CLT]

My wife and I tried Firenze on Rea Rd. for restaurant week on Saturday night. They seemed overwhelmed. First off the decor was a bit outdated and could use some remodeling. The food was good, very good flavors and cooked well however, the portions just weren't very big. We sat at our table 2 hours and probably an hour and a half of that time we had no food or were waiting for our next course. We finished our night at Wendys and to be quite honest...I was more satisfied with the meal and service at Wendys

Does anyone know when reservations start for Restaurant week in July 2011?

I think last year Reservations opened two weeks prior? But I don't remember the specific window.

Let me google that for you

From another site: http://gosoutheast.about.com/od/wint...ntweeks_va.htm

Queen's Feast Summer 2011 - July 15 -24, 2011 - More than 90 participating restaurants, including over a dozen first-time restaurant participants, offer a prix fixe, three-course (or more) dinner menus for $30 per person. The list of participating restaurants will be updated on their website on or about June 24, 2011.

Probably needs it's own thread of to be put into the list of events, but the list is pretty extensive.

Basic Info: July 15-24th - $30 price fix meals - Reservations via Open Table

Interesting Fact on Supporting the Local Economy from their FB page:

What impact do you make on the local economy when dining out? How's this for an example: During the 10-day Charlotte Restaurant Week from January 21-30, the 83 participating restaurants served approximately 85,000 meals for an estimated economic impact of $3.995 million, based on an average guest check of about $47 per person.
