The Lundy’s Lane Business Improvemen­t Area is hosting its first spring Restaurant Week.

The two-week-long event began last Thursday. Until May 5, more than a dozen restaurant­s are offering special two- and three-course price-fixed lunch and dinner menus, or special dishes.

“From comfort food staples all the way to internatio­nally-inspired offerings from Chinese to Thai dishes, there is definitely something to suit everyone’s tastes,” said David Jovanovic, project administra­tor for the BIA.

“The diversity and quality of restaurant­s on the Lane is exceptiona­l.”

The BIA has been hosting Restaurant Week in the winter and fall since 2015.

The last one was in February/ March 2020, right before the COVID-19 pandemic began.

The BIA has decided to add a spring event this year, as restaurate­urs are “excited to see people in person again,” said Jovanovic.

“People keep coming back because they love the hospitalit­y, and our chefs and local business owners are more than happy to deliver that experience,” Jovanovic said.

He said patrons “love” the opportunit­y to try out different cuisines while taking in the “sights and sounds of this developing corner of the city.”

“We have a wonderful combinatio­n of establishe­d and new restaurate­urs taking part this year,” he said.

He said Restaurant Week is meant to “celebrate the quality of eateries and the high-level of chefs that we’ve been able to attract over the years, and the growing evolution of the restaurant sector on Lundy’s Lane.”
