If you’ve been meaning to visit one of the Tampa Bay area’s quaint idyllic seaside cities, here’s your chance. Safety Harbor Restaurant Week’s third year runs Monday, Sept. 16-Sunday, Sept. 22, featuring 25+ local eateries with prix fixe menus and scrumptious deals.

Here’s some stand-outs:

  • The Tides Seafood Market & Provisions is serving up three courses for $35, with menu items including gumbo, crab bisque, and a lobster BLT.
  • The Pub at Safety Harbor has date night sorted, with dinner for two for $45. We’re looking at the meatballs.
  • Keep your eyes peeled for The Nona Slice House’s deals. The award-winning pizzeria is taking part in the foodie festivities, but has not yet dished out specific details.

If you’re still hungry, make sure to tag #SHRestaurantWk in your social posts for a chance to win a gift certificate for a participating restaurant of your choice.
