<<UPDATE 5:00 PM 8/24/09: Restaurant Week has officially begun, and we received an update today from the folks at the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington. As of today’s count, there are almost 210 restaurants participating in Restaurant Week, and we’ve got them all up-to-date on our Google map. Check it out!>>
By now you’ve probably seen countless other sources announce the participants in the upcoming Summer Restaurant Week that will take place from August 24 through August 30. But we here at Capital Spice like to give you one more piece of information to keep in mind as you’re making up your mind on where to spend your Restaurant Week dollars: location.
As we have in the past, we’ve included all of the participating Restaurant Week establishments on one handy-dandy Google map. So take a look and figure out what’s closest to your office for a $20.09 lunch. Or scout out the spot closest to your favorite hotspot and grab a $35.09 dinner before going out. Then head over to OpenTable and make your reservation!

Click on the image to go to our Google map that locates every restaurant participating in DC's Summer Restaurant Week 2009.
Don’t forget to check out DC Foodies – they’ve been collecting Restaurant Week menus for years and will likely be doing so again for this round.
And if you’ve got questions about specific restaurants, feel free to ask! We’ve done our share of Restaurant Weeks, so we may have some insight.

The map only shows me Morton’s Steakhouses near DC.
They’re the only two Morton’s steakhouses that are participating, I’m sorry to say!
no, i meant that when i click the map, it only shows morton’s. it doesn’t show any other restaurants.
Oops! Sorry about that. The link is fixed now!
Yay! Thanks!
If you had to list your number one choice that is also the best and most reasonably priced restaurant for next week what would it be? I want to take a friend out but don’t have a whole lot of money to spend.
Thanks!
Without knowing a bit more about what you and your friend like and what kind of budget you’re actually working with, that’s a tough call, Andrew.
If you’re willing to head over to Courthouse, I’d say Ray’s the Steaks is a great value in terms of quality and price. It’s a higher-end meal for mid-range prices.
But if you’d like to email us at capitalspice@gmail.com with some more details, we can try to give you a few more targeted recommendations.
Hope that helps!
I know it’s way up in Frederick, but you forgot Volt…
Kyle,
I just checked the official listing – http://washington.org/restaurantwk/ – and they don’t show VOLT as participating. But then I went to VOLT’s website, and they DO have Restaurant Week menus up for lunch AND dinner on their site.
Sounds like they’re flying under the radar – if you’ve already snagged a reservation you’re a lucky man. With Chef Voltaggio making his Top Chef debut tomorrow night, those Restaurant Week reservations are going to go QUICKLY.
