Here’s How To Get The Most Out of DFW Restaurant Week

DFW Restaurant Week has been dishing up some of the best restaurants for 29 years. Restaurateurs create a special prix-fixe menu that gives back to Lena Pope Home and its services to the Fort Worth community. What began as a week-long experience has now mushroomed into a four-week dining extravaganza. DFW Restaurant Week gets underway soon.

North Texas Foodies know a delicious deal when they see one. Tarrant County has 39 restaurants participating this year. For each meal purchased, 20 percent will be donated back to Lena Pope. Preview Weekend runs from July 31 to August 3, kicking off DFW Restaurant Week, which runs from August 4 through August 31.

Your Dining Makes a Difference For Those Served by Lena Pope

This is one of Lena Pope’s largest annual fundraisers, and one of the tastiest fundraisers in the metroplex. “Since 1998, Lena Pope has benefitted as the Tarrant County partner of DFW Restaurant Week, receiving over $3.2 million in donations,” according to a release. “Last year alone, the event raised $740,083, with $209,448 directly supporting Lena Pope.”

For the past 95 years, this Fort Worth nonprofit has been dedicated to strengthening children and families through counseling, education, and behavioral health programs. It’s sliding scale (along with generous donations) makes this support affordable for all.

“The partnership between our community, local restaurants, and Lena Pope during DFW Restaurant Week is truly inspiring,” says Dr. Ashley Barnes, CEO of Lena Pope. “Every reservation made not only treats our guests to exceptional dining, but also supports local children and families in accessing the vital tools they need to thrive.”

Special Menus and Special Pricing Make DFW Restaurant Week An Annual Event

Here’s how it works. Participating restaurants create special three-course prix fixe dinner menus for $49 or $59, some also offer two-course lunch or brunch menus for $29. Lena Pope receives 20 percent of every meal purchased at participating Tarrant County restaurants. It’s a great chance to try something new, and a great opportunity for restaurateurs to introduce themselves to a that new audience ― a win, win scenario.
