More than 35 Northwest suburban dining establishments are taking part in the third annual Chicago Northwest Restaurant Week, which runs Feb. 18 to Feb. 28.

Created as a partnership between Meet Chicago Northwest and with local restaurants, the event presents a distinctive selection of eateries offering exclusive, affordably-priced, 3-course prix fixe lunch and dinner menus.

Lunch menu price points, depending upon the individual restaurant, are $10 or $20. Dinner menu prices are $20, $30, or $40. Participating restaurants include casual bistros and grills, to high-end steakhouses.

"Chicago Northwest Restaurant Week 2016 offers a fantastic and affordable way to find your next favorite Chicagoland restaurant," said Dave Parulo, president of Meet Chicago Northwest. "We are so excited about the number and variety of our restaurant partners planning to participate this year."
