Good news from last summer. DFW Restaurant Week raised more than $711,000 for the North Texas Food Bank and Lena Pope. What an amazing contribution made by our local restaurants and patrons.
Get ready to do it again. DFW Restaurant Week 2017 kicks off August 7. The details are coming soon, but you can expect a preview weekend before starting day, and Reservation Day will be announced in July. This year will be the 20th anniversary for this popular fundraiser.
