Event Details

Spring 2026 “San Francisco Restaurant Week” (April 10-19)

SF Restaurant Week 2026 is a 10-day celebration of San Francisco’s world-class dining community when frugal foodies get to eat their way through 200+ restaurants across the city.

Participating restaurants will offer special prix-fixe menus starting at $10 for brunch or lunch and $30 for dinner, giving diners a chance to try new spots or revisit favorites at a discount.

Typically held twice a year in spring and fall, San Francisco Restaurant Week returns again in Spring 2026 to celebrate the flavors of the city’s diverse neighborhoods and support local restaurants.
