November Dine Around Seattle - Eastside Options

On November 1st, the fall edition of the Dine Around Seattle promotion began. Showcasing many of the region's best restaurants, this promotion offers diners a three course dinner for $30 Sunday through Thursday through the end of the month. Diners get to chose an appetizer, entree and dessert and even an optional wine pairing accompanying each course for an additional cost at some restaurants.

Many establishments are also offering a three course lunch for only $15.
