MILWAUKEE (WITI) – Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21 and select downtown restaurants are prepping for the 10th annual Downtown Dining Week, June 4th – 11th.

A mix of 47 new and familiar restaurants will be featured, each with three-course options at $12.50 for lunch and $25 or $35 for dinner.

“Downtown Dining Week invites out-of-town guests and area residents to get a taste for all that downtown Milwaukee has to offer,” said Beth Weirick, CEO of Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21. “This week is a chance to celebrate our top-notch steakhouses, ethnic eateries and cozy cafes.”

As an extra incentive for dining downtown, Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21 will award four diners $550 in dining certificates.

To enter, diners will be encouraged to complete a Downtown Dining Week survey following their dining experience at www.milwaukeedowntown.com. At the conclusion of the event, four completed surveys will be randomly drawn.

Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21 started Downtown Dining Week in an effort to familiarize residents and guests with downtown’s resurgence. Since the event’s inception in 2006, Downtown Dining Week has attracted over 400,000 diners – many to experience a restaurant for the first time. In 2014, 56 percent of all Downtown Dining Week participants indicated they were first-time diners at a participating establishment.

Menus will be posted in early May. Reservations are encouraged during the event.
