SAV Restaurant Week Extended until February 9th

In the wake of the weather having made a mess-almost very literally-of the City of Savannah the last 7 or so days, a quick decision has been made to extend Restaurant Week in Savannah until Sunday, February 9th.

By Tuesday of last week, we knew a number of restaurants were going to have some difficulty finishing out their week with anything resembling normal. Deliveries began to slow down ahead of the storm and we received word that it was going to be next to impossible for some to start Restaurant Week on time. Once the snow came and decided to hang around for days on end, it made it challenging for some establishments to open their doors, much less execute any kind of ‘special’ menu.

Some of our participants didn’t even get their doors open until Saturday. Almost immediately, we heard from some restaurants interested in extending Restaurant Week until the 9th. It took no thought at all to honor that request.

A couple of things to keep in mind as we navigate the next two weeks:

*Not all Restaurant Week participants will be extending their menus for another week. As of Tuesday morning, we have 17 on board who WILL. We will list them below. Two have politely declined to extend for another week. Those numbers will obviously change as we get into Tuesday.

*Some restaurant who are extending for the extra week will end their promotion on February 8th. February 9th is Super Bowl Sunday. The number of people out to dinner that night will be very low. In anticipation of that, we’ve been advised that they will not offer Restaurant Week menus on the 9th. We do, however, have a couple of participants who are offering lunch and brunch (Tortugas Grill for example) who will honor their Restaurant Week menu on Sunday morning the 9th. The best way to find who will be offering dinner on the 9th will be to check with them ahead of time. Or refer back to the list below which will be updated as we get information from participants.

Stuffed Shrimp -The Shrimp Factory

So now we have a full extra week to enjoy some of the great deals these restaurants are offering this month and into next. Some places did well over last weekend, others-as you might imagine-did not. That’s to be expected with the condition of the roadways in Savannah at the end of last week and into the weekend.
