Restaurant Week in Boston:
Boston is having its semi-annual Restaurant Week for the next two weeks, with some very good deals on some restaurants if you know where to look.
The Restaurant Week menus offer:
2 Course Lunch for $15.10
3 Course Lunch for $20.10
3 Course Dinner for $33.10
These deals are available at participating restaurants.
Restaurant week meals all include an appetizer, main course, and dessert.
When you sit down at a participating restaurant, you must request the Restaurant Week Menu with limited selections.
Some menus can be seen online here.
Sites which have Boston's Restaurant Week details and menus:
OpenTable.com complete list of restaurants participating in this season's Restaurant Week.
Use that site to help find the best deals, by picking a restaurant labeled with 3 or 4 dollar-signs, signifying a meal is normally expensive there.
Be careful when making a restaurant selection.
A lot of restaurants on the list charge $33 for a dinner which would normally cost around the same price.
Some places offer their $33 Restaurant Week meal discounted from their usual $50 to $60 per person.
Some restaurants will also let you add a top shelf wine glass to your meal for $5 or $10 more.
Examples of hot deals in Boston:
Icarus - Dinner normally costs $45+ per person, so $33 for a 3 course meal is very good.
Wine adds $10 more.
Oishii in the South End - lunch only.
Some of the best sushi in New England, and meals normally cost $30 to $60 per person for dinner.
Smith & Wollensky - great steaks in a castle. A 3-course lunch would normally cost around $30, and 3-course dinner around $50, so paying $20 for lunch or $33 for dinner is a hot deal.
A glass of wine adds $10 more.
Fleming's Steakhouse - great steaks. A 3-course dinner normally costs around $50.
Davio's - very good pasta, great atmosphere, excellent service, but very limited Restaurant Week menu.
Top of the Hub - Lunch only, good food and best view of the city.
Their pricey food tastes average at best, but $20 for a 3-course lunch is still a great deal for the view.
Sibling Rivalry - a fancy looking meal, great deal with lots of choices on their Restaurant Week menu.
Their 3-course dinner would normally cost around $40 per person, so $33 is a decent deal.
Morton's - a fancy restaurant with incredible food, where a 3-course meal with a side dish usually costs $50 to $60.
It's a steal at $33 per person, especially if you've never been there before.
If you eat at the bar, a glass of wine adds $5.
Tangierino - great Moroccan food, good value for the price.
Peak times can get a little crowded especially on a Friday night, but customers who show up after 8pm for dinner and after 1pm for lunch should have no wait.
