It’s always a great time to get out into the city to indulge in some of the homegrown flavors available in Milwaukee’s ever-expanding restaurant scene. However, dedicated dining weeks give customers extra incentive to visit local restaurants by offering deals and exclusive menu items during specific time frames. Joining established food-focused happenings like Downtown Dining Week and Tosa Restaurant Week is none other than Southside Dining Week.

Southside Dining Week will return for a fifth annual installment September 27 through October 4. During that span, a total of 39 participating establishments scattered across Walker’s Point, Bay View, Silver City, and other enclaves on Milwaukee’s south side will offer dining incentives such as discounts, drink and dessert add-ons, and Dining Week-exclusive menu items. As you gear up for this year’s Southside Dining Week, check out the full list of participants and their specials below.
