Tacoma Restaurant Week is back and more delicious than ever. Tacoma's top restaurants join us this fall - Oct. 15-19 and Oct. 22-26 - for two delicious weeks of dining. The traditional two- or three-course lunch and three-course dinner remains the same, with the varying price points introduced during the last few promotions offering a variety of choices. Trust us, this is the best darn dining deal to hit town all year. 

We're excited for long-time favorites set to return to the promotion after being on hiatus for a while, along with our core of seasoned participants. This fall's lineup includes Copper & Salt Northwest Kitchen, El Gaucho Tacoma, E9 Firehouse + Gastropub, Lobster Shop, Poquitos Mexican Restaurant Tacoma, Stanford's Steak, Stanley & Seafort's Steak, Chop & Fish House, The Adriatic at Oakbrook, The Melting Pot Tacoma and WildFin American Grill. 

We know that during Tacoma Restaurant Week it can be difficult to choose which restaurants to dine at. We struggle with that too, and oftentimes make more reservations than we care to admit. To help our readers just a bit, we've scoured the menus for a variety of dishes that just might help make your decisions a little easier.  

If you're looking for lunch options, both WildFin American Grill and Lobster Shop will be serving up tasty options. WildFin American Grill's Northwest Seafood Chowder is an office favorite, while Lobster Shop has a lobster roll on their menu that has caught our eye. Plus, what better time than now to check out their newly renovated dining room.

A couple of dinner menu items that have jumped off the page to us include E9 Firehouse + Gastropub's Fire Pasta served with garlic bread, Stanford's Steak New York Strip served with rosemary potatoes and green beans, El Gaucho's Pan Seared Halibut with Pomegranate glaze, and WildFin American Grill's Butterscotch Pudding Brulee, butterscotch custard with caramel rum whipped cream.

Did we mention that El Gaucho's menu ends with Tableside Bananas Foster? Yes please!

We recommend reservations as these restaurants can book up quickly during Tacoma Restaurant Week's two weeks of dining. Whether for a date night, dinner with friends, or family night out, there is no better time than Tacoma Restaurant Week to try these delicious restaurants for a deal.
