Local eateries are coming together to mark Passaic County Restaurant Week.

Scheduled to run May 11–17, the promotion will include wallet-friendly prix-fixe menu options designed to appeal to a wide range of diners while also showcasing signature dishes.

In honor of America’s 250th anniversary this year, participating restaurants will offer specials at the following price points:

• $17.76 breakfast or lunch combo
• $25 three-course dinner featuring appetizer, entrée and dessert

Beverages, tax and gratuity are not included unless otherwise specified, organizers said.

Founded in 2019, Passaic County Restaurant Week seeks to highlight the diverse regional food scene by giving residents and visitors a chance to enjoy special offers.

Passaic County Commissioner Deputy Director Orlando Cruz called it “a fantastic opportunity for local restaurants to showcase their creativity, reach new customers and celebrate the thriving culinary scene in our communities.”

He went on to say, “We encourage all restaurants to sign up and be part of this exciting week that brings residents together to enjoy great food while supporting our local economy.”

To enhance diner engagement, the program will include an interactive digital component through the Let’s Rallie app that allows guests to check in at participating restaurants, share feedback and vote for their favorite experiences. At the conclusion of the promotion, one establishment will be crowned Passaic County Restaurant Week champion.
