Downtown Memphis is setting the table for another week of local restaurant specials as Downtown Dining Week returns November 9–15, 2026.

The 17th annual event will feature participating restaurants across Downtown, with menus and offers that encourage residents to try new spots or revisit longtime favorites.

What is Downtown Dining Week?

Organized with support from the Downtown Memphis Commission, the week celebrates local restaurants, their staffs and the neighborhoods they serve.

This year's promotion lists 38 participating restaurants, with offerings ranging from casual meals to multi-course dining experiences.

Restaurants set their own specials, so prices, menus and participating dates may differ.

In years past, some restaurants have used prices tied to the year; do not assume every establishment offers a fixed $20.26 deal.

Restaurants and specials

Examples highlighted in event coverage include Felicia Suzanne's, the Arcade, Majestic Grille, Rendezvous, Blues City Cafe and Terrace at the River Inn.

Felicia Suzanne's is among the restaurants advertising a three-course dinner special, while other establishments offer their own combinations.

Menus, booking policies and availability should be checked directly with each restaurant before visiting.

Save your receipts

Organizers are also promoting opportunities to win prizes by saving qualifying Downtown Dining Week receipts.

Prizes described in current coverage include a hotel stay, spa experience and dining gift cards.

Special parking offers are part of the promotion, with details available from the Downtown Memphis Commission.

Plan ahead

The event starts Monday, November 9, and continues through Sunday, November 15.
