Ventura Restaurant Week returns on Jan. 22-29, and it’s a great time to visit Downtown and Midtown and explore a diverse mix of tastes and plates, all for $20 or less.
Downtown Ventura Partners, in conjunction with California Restaurant Month, is heading efforts to return the ever-popular Restaurant Week to town. Find a complete listing of restaurants and special offers at www.downtownventura.org/RW.

“We are proud to participate as Restaurant Week continues to grow and position Ventura as a top foodie destination,” said DVP Director Kevin Clerici.
The participating restaurants decided on the theme, “20 under $20,” with a special deal for $20 or less.
