Restaurants in and around Downtown Schenectady will be in the culinary spotlight during Schenectady Restaurant Week, taking place April 4-10, 2022. Throughout the week, participating restaurants will offer special fixed-price menus for $30, featuring a variety of appetizers, entrees, and desserts. New this year, select restaurants will offer three-course lunch menus at the special price of $20. Schenectady Restaurant Week is a joint promotion of the Downtown Schenectady Improvement Corporation (DSIC) and the Chamber of Schenectady County, which is an affiliate of the Capital Region Chamber.
Jim Salengo, Executive Director of the DSIC, said, “Schenectady has built a well-deserved reputation as a regional dining destination due to our outstanding mix of restaurants offering many styles and cuisines. Now that more people are comfortable with returning to restaurants for on-site dining, Restaurant Week provides an extra incentive to get out and experience the best of what Schenectady has to offer.”
Mark Eagan, President and CEO of the Capital Region Chamber, said, “This is a great selection of participating restaurants for diners to enjoy Schenectady Restaurant Week. With the addition of a lunch option at some restaurants to this year’s promotion, there are many opportunities to support these exceptional local businesses.”
