While I’m glad Silver Spring is having its own Restaurant week. I think $30 per person for dinner at most of these restaurants is hardly a deal.
The point of Restaurant week is to showcase restaurants you would normally never go to by offering pre fixe menus at low (for the restaurant)prices. How is $30 at Red Lobster a deal or any other of those places. My bill barely goes above $30 for 2 people at most of them. (thats 2 entrees and a shared app)
I agree… $30 is overpriced for most SS restaurants. Maybe Jackies, Ceviche, & Mrs. K are worth it, but for the rest I wouldn’t spend that kind of money and call it a “deal”.
