Vegas diners are about to turn their dinner plans into a full-on hunger fight. Las Vegas Restaurant Week returns June 1 through June 12, 2026, when hundreds of spots across the valley will roll out special prix fixe menus and send a portion of the proceeds to Three Square Food Bank. The 12-day run is designed to feed Southern Nevadans facing food insecurity while giving local kitchens a welcome midsummer bump in business.
According to Las Vegas Restaurant Week, menus and special promotions went live Monday, May 18, with participating restaurants offering curated three-course options for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. Official guidelines lay out price points starting at $20 and topping out at $120, and each restaurant decides which meal periods to feature. Now in its 19th year, the event website hosts the full lineup of participating venues along with reservation links.
Last Year’s Haul and Reach
In 2025, more than 290 restaurants and roughly 64,000 diners helped raise just over $400,000, enough to fund about 1.2 million meals, according to coverage from 96.3 KKLZ. Food & Beverage Magazine reported similar figures, underscoring Restaurant Week’s status as a reliable annual revenue stream for Three Square’s meal programs.
How Restaurants Chip In
The participation materials spell out the financial nuts and bolts. Restaurants select from fixed price tiers for each meal period and then choose a per-cover donation level, with the higher dinner brackets carrying built-in donation minimums, according to the official registration and participation pages. That setup lets neighborhood cafes and Strip fine dining rooms play on the same field while keeping things straightforward for diners. Registration for restaurants took place in April, and participating venues submit menus that comply with the program’s guidelines.
Which Kitchens Are In
A number of familiar names have already teased their lineups. Ferraro’s Ristorante is back with a multi-course offering, and Strip and local stalwarts like Carversteak and The Venetian are among the venues that typically join in. Menus span a wide range of formats and price points, so there is usually something for most budgets, and KLAS 8 News Now reported that more than 300 restaurants across the valley are expected to participate this year.
Why It Matters
Three Square and its community partners estimate that roughly one in six Southern Nevadans faces food insecurity and that more than 113,000 children are affected. The whole point of Restaurant Week is to chip away at those numbers by turning everyday meals into meal donations, according to Food & Beverage Magazine. Organizers say the event is designed to prop up both families in need and the local hospitality economy at a moment when both are looking for steady community support.
