Inlander Restaurant Week is an annual Inland Northwest tradition. This year you have a choice of delicious delicacies from nearly 100 restaurants from Feb. 21 to Mar. 2.
The menus at participating restaurants are fixed price, meaning you know how much you will pay ahead of time. Each restaurant’s 3-course dinner is priced at either $21 or $31. You will have three choices for each course.
It is a good idea to make dinner reservations before you go.
Some places also have add-ons or upgrades for a clearly marked cost, and all participating restaurants carry local wine, beer and spirits.
KREM has picked out five of the best deals to jump on during this year’s Restaurant Week. You can find a list of all participating restaurants online.
