If you’ll be in Las Vegas next week you may want to put Rao’s, Mesa Grill, Serendipity 3, Society Café Encore and Allegro on your dining itinerary as these and many other Las Vegas restaurants will be participating in the 6th annual Las Vegas Restaurant Week to benefit the hungry in Southern Nevada.
Beginning Monday, August 27 through September 2, tourists and locals will be able to dine at some of Las Vegas’ most decadent (and most expensive) restaurants for less. All proceeds from Restaurant Week will go towards helping Three Square fight to end hunger in Southern Nevada.
