30 eateries in Columbia participate in annual event
Looking for dinner plans this weekend? You’re in luck.
Restaurant Week South Carolina is going on now and runs until Sunday, meaning restaurants throughout the state are offering special menus and limited-time prices.
The annual event, which began Jan. 9, is coordinated by the South Carolina Restaurant and Lodging Association. Around the state, more than 100 restaurants are participating.
In Columbia, about 30 have special menus, including Blue Marlin, Cellar on Greene, Gervais & Vine Restaurant, Motor Supply Company Bistro and Oak Table.
What restaurants offer ranges from multiple-course meals to discounts and giveaways.
At the Oak Table, for example, a three-course dinner — complete with a pork chop, pan-roasted fish or risotto prepared each day — costs $30 per person. At Motor Supply, diners can get a free glass of wine. At M Vista, hot sake is $3 and sushi is $1 off.
Restaurants are still offering their standard menus, and while every restaurant doesn’t require reservations, the Restaurant and Lodging Association recommends that diners make them.
