San Diego Restaurant Week Returning In January

SAN DIEGO, CA — Foodies, rejoice! San Diego Restaurant Week returns this January.

The bi-annual event, scheduled Jan. 25 through Feb. 1, 2026, will showcase more than 100 restaurants across the county offering specially curated two-course lunches and three-course dinners starting at $30.

For the January edition of San Diego Restaurant Week, the region's most beloved chefs and rising culinary talents will spotlight winter flavors, including comforting dishes, fresh coastal seafood and creative takes on classic favorites, according to the California Restaurant Association.

"There's something special about starting the year gathered around the table," said Joanna Pearce, chapter manager of the California Restaurant Association. "The January edition of San Diego Restaurant Week gives everyone a delicious reason to reconnect after the holidays, support local restaurants, and share memorable meals with the people we love as we begin 2026 together."

In addition to offering eight days of dining deals, San Diego Restaurant Week is bringing a renewed commitment to supporting the people behind the region's vibrant food scene, according to the California Restaurant Association.

San Diego Restaurant Week has partnered with Restaurants Care, a nonprofit fund powered by California Restaurant Foundation that provides grants and essential resources to restaurant workers across the state. A portion of every restaurant's participation fee will benefit Restaurants Care.

Reservations are not required but are recommended. See a full list of participating restaurants at sandiegorestaurantweek.com.
