Happy Friday eve, Cola – Miranda here. Today is the first day of Restaurant Week in South Carolina – and for my fellow foodies, it means it’s our time to shine. Below are a few details about restaurant week, along with my top picks for dinner over the next eleven nights.
○ Restaurant “week” actually extends for 11 full days (today through Sun., Jan. 19).
○ Columbia has 40+ restaurants participating. From fast-casual to fine dining, these eateries ft. prix fixe menus (i.e. appetizer, entree + dessert for one fixed price) along with other promotions + discounts to help you eat your way through Soda City.
○ Restaurant Week is not limited to downtown – it includes specials at restaurants in West Columbia, Irmo, Lexington, NE Columbia + more.
My top picks:
Kao Thai (Thai), 1001 Senate St. #300 | 3 courses for $25-35 per person
○ Featuring Tom Kha Chicken, Thai Crab Cakes + (my favorite) Japanese Cream Puffs. Here’s their full menu for RW.
Il Giorgione (Italian), 2406 Devine St. | 3 Courses for $28 per person
