Save the Date (and Loosen Your Belt): Williamsburg Restaurant Week

February 1–7, 2026

If you know me even a little, you already know this is my kind of event.

Williamsburg Restaurant Week is back February 1–7, 2026, and it’s one of those can’t-miss traditions that’s been bringing locals out of hibernation for years. Hosted by the Williamsburg Area Restaurant Association, this week is all about celebrating the incredible food scene we’re lucky to have right here.

This is when local restaurants roll out prix-fixe menus at set prices, making it dangerously easy to say things like, “Let’s just try one more place.” Whether you’re a creature of habit or always chasing the next great dish, Restaurant Week is the perfect excuse to mix it up.

Restaurant Week Update: Here’s Who’s In (So Far)… 👀🍽️

The list is starting to take shape! A solid lineup of local favorites has already signed on for Williamsburg Restaurant Week, and if past years are any indication, I’m sure this list will continue to grow as we get closer to February.

As of now, the following restaurants have committed to participating:

1607 Grill Aberdeen Barn Berret’s Seafood Restaurant & Taphouse Grill Blue Talon Bistro Carrabba’s Italian Grill Corner Pocket Craft 31 Fat Tuna Illy Café Le Yaca Longboards Williamsburg Dining & Tiki Bar Oceans & Ale Old City BBQ Opus 9 Steakhouse Paul’s Deli New Town Revolution Golf & Grille Sal’s by Victor Second Street The Surry Seafood Company Tuscany Ristorante Williamsburg Inn

That’s already a pretty impressive mix—from classic steakhouses and French bistros to sushi, BBQ, seafood, and casual neighborhood favorites. And again, this is just the list so far. Based on previous years, I fully expect more restaurants to jump in as plans and menus get finalized.

For the most up-to-date list (and eventually menus and pricing), keep an eye on the official Restaurant Week page here:

I’ll say it again—this is the perfect excuse to get out, eat well, and support local. And if you’re debating where to start… well, you know where to find me. My list is long. 😄

Restaurant Week also shows up at exactly the right time. Winter can be a quieter stretch for restaurants, and this is a fun, delicious way to get out, support local businesses, and show some love to the folks who keep Williamsburg well-fed year-round.

And yes—if you’re wondering—I’m always out supporting local restaurants. Coffee meetings, lunch stops, dinner plans, last-minute “where should we eat?” texts… it adds up fast. My list of favorite places is honestly a mile long.

If you’re asking for recommendations, just know this: my list probably has 40+ places on it. But here’s the deal—I’ll happily share mine if you share yours.

So let’s hear it: What’s your favorite Williamsburg restaurant, and what’s the one dish everyone should order at least once?

Go ahead and save the date: February 1–7, 2026. Your taste buds will thank you.
