Local restaurants are getting ready to welcome new customers. That’s because QC Restaurant Week will be held Monday through Sunday, April 6-12.
This weeklong celebration highlights the Quad Cities’ food scene and the people who work hard to make it special. The special week is set up to invite residents and visitors alike to experience a diverse lineup of locally owned eateries, cafes, and other various establishments across the region.
“QC Restaurant Week is more than a promotional event. It’s about celebrating and recognizing the passion and dedication of the people behind every dish, every table, and every dining experience,” said Katrina Keuning, Brand and Content strategist for Visit Quad Cities. “This week allows residents and visitors to revisit old favorites, discover something new, and support the local restaurants that help shape the QC.”
Go here to see a list of participating local restaurants. Registration for additional restaurants is now open through mid-March, and establishment owners are encouraged to submit before the deadline to participate in this year’s event.
The community is also invited to nominate standout hospitality professionals through the Restaurant Stars program. Nominations are open through Friday, March 27, and honor servers, chefs, baristas, hosts, kitchen staff, and other restaurant employees who elevate the guest experience. Restaurant Stars will be surprised at their workplace during QC Restaurant Week and presented with a special gift from Visit Quad Cities.
