Detroit Restaurant Week brings you $36 meal specials from Detroit's most delicious restaurants. Each restaurateur and Chef will prepare their unique take on meal with a meal special.
It's been known for some time that Detroit is a creative culinary hot spot. We are celebrating the city's most creative creations - Meals! Each restaurateur and Chef will prepare their unique take on meal with a meal special. The idea is to get people to embrace the food, culture and Detroit-love while getting them out to eat, drink, and try new places!
Let the Restaurant Week app take you on a Detroit exploration; map out your week, try new restaurants, challenge your taste buds, and share your experiences on social media with fellow Detroit meal lovers.
1. Get the Restaurant Week app
2. Choose a participating restaurant to dine-in during Restaurant Week
3. While you're at the restaurant, use the app to check in. You'll earn points towards being the Biggest Foodie in Detroit!

The person with the most points accrued at the end of the week will be declared the Biggest Foodie in Detroit!
Detroit Restaurant Week creates such strong, lusty, even insane feelings that we decided it needed its own little manifesto. Please read on...
We expect that the restaurants will be extremely busy. So, if a place runs out toward the end of a shift, handle it like an adult, go back the next day (earlier), order your meal special and thank them for working hard. Please be nice to our restaurants.
The excitement for Detroit Restaurant Week has been building! Don't be surprised if restaurants have waits. In fact, be surprised if they don't.
$36 brings out the cheap in all of us, but really, you're likely getting a $50 meal, so please tip at least 20%. The people who are serving you are working harder during Restaurant Week than an average week. A kind word will also be welcome – these people are our friends and neighbors.
Purchase of sides and extras is not a requirement, but we think it says a lot to those working hard to bring you an extraordinary experience. Grab some cocktails, wine, or enhancements and say thanks!
Restaurants will be encouraged to post their waits and remaining meals for the day on their social platforms. Also don't forget to share and tag your photos with #DetroitRestaurantWeek
Just a final note that many restaurants may require you dine-in for their meal specials. Take-out may be subjected to a surge charge depending on each restaurant's policy. Make sure to double-check the Official Restaurant Week App to confirm which locations offer carry-out and which locations are dine-in only.
