More than 140 restaurants across North Texas are coming together this August for a good cause and a great meal. DFW Restaurant Week 2025 officially kicks off today, offering prix fixe menus that benefit both the North Texas Food Bank and Lena Pope.
Whether you're after a luxurious steak dinner or a casual lunch, the annual event makes it easy to dine out and give back.
When And Where
The official run of DFW Restaurant Week is August 4–10, but many restaurants are extending the experience through August 31. A preview weekend, which ran from July 31 to August 3, gave early diners a chance to beat the crowds.
Participating restaurants span five counties: Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton and Rockwall. Menus, locations and reservation links can be found at DFWRestaurantWeek.com.
How It Works
Diners choose from curated two- or three-course prix fixe menus at set price points. A portion of each meal goes directly to charity:
- Lunch or Weekend Brunch: $29 for two courses ($6 donated)
- Dinner: $49 or $59 for three courses ($10 or $12 donated)
- Signature Experience Dinners: $99 multi-course meal ($20 donated)
With options for every appetite and budget, DFW Restaurant Week is both accessible and impactful.
