FAQs
For 10 days, we partner with Tampa Bay area restaurants to offer you multiple-course prix fixe menus at a exclusive price. Each menu is curated by the restaurant. To enjoy a specific restaurant's menu, simply stop into their location during their normal operating hours and ask for the "Tampa Bay Restaurant Week menu." If, for any reason, your server is unaware of the menu, don't be afraid to ask for a manager! Each restaurant has worked with us for weeks on this promotion and is aware of their menu; you can also show your server the restaurant's special page on your phone.
