Hey COLA foodies. The (second) most wonderful time of year kicks off today. Restaurant Week, happening Thursday, Jan. 12-Sunday, Jan. 22, gives residents the chance to experience some of the capital city’s best restaurants. From fine dining to casual eats, participating restaurants are offering new menu items, fan favorites, and specially curated multi-course menus.

Looking for a central location to tend to your taste buds? Enter: Main Street District. The downtown centerpiece is home to an array of culinary experiences, including these three that are worth checking out during Restaurant Week 2023:

  • Bourbon: With a menu full of Cajun flair and an assortment of crafted cocktails, it’s the perfect place for a night out.
  • Hampton Street Vineyard: This farm-to-table restaurant offers a variety of french-inspired dishes and an extensive fine wine list. Think: Feel those date night vibes.
  • Halls Chophouse: Celebrate your special occasion (or find something to celebrate) with dinner at this elevated, classic American steakhouse.
