Silicon Valley Restaurant Week Registration
Silicon Valley Restaurant Week is returning Oct 15–22, 2014. In years past, the event has successfully brought many first-time customers to local restaurants and drew attention to the region’s culinary excellence.
How it works: For one week, restaurants offer a discounted fixed-price, three-course menu that include three dining options for the first two courses and two or three choices for dessert. The cost of tax, tip and beverage should not be included in the fixed price, but additional discounts on wine flights and other drink specials are encouraged.
Silicon Valley Restaurant Week is an opportunity to showcase your restaurant’s cuisine and highlight your best creations. You might choose to feature dishes that are most popular among your guests, some signature menu items or debut new ones. Be creative and have fun!
Each restaurant must provide gift certificates to be used in contests and promotions to generate excitement about the event.
Listing will appear on the website once payment is received.
