Riverside Restaurant Week
Riverside Greater Downtown
Fine Dining Group
This week, eight downtown area restaurants are rolling out the red carpet to showcase the city’s growing collection of unique, award-winning dining establishments as part of the first-ever Riverside Restaurant Week.
Sponsored by the Riverside Greater Downtown Fine Dining Group, patrons will be able to experience upscale culinary delights and one-of-a-kind atmospheres not found at the major “chain” restaurants. For the event, each restaurant will offer specially prepared, three-course meals for $25 (lunch) and $35 (dinner).
The eight participating restaurants are Café Sevilla, Ciao Bella Ristorante, Mario’s Place, Mission Inn Restaurant, Olio Ristorante, Restaurant Omakase, Saffron and Via Veneto Trilussa.
The event, which kicked off Sunday with “The Overture,” a fund-raising event benefiting the Riverside Arts Council, is a lead-in of sorts to Saturday night’s 30th Annual “Mayor’s Ball for the Arts” at White Park.
So, make plans this week to try out at least one of the participating restaurants. Indeed, Riverside is fortunate to have a wide-ranging assortment of independent fine dining establishments, all in or near the heart of downtown.
