The 18th Annual San Diego Restaurant Week returns Sunday, September 26th through Sunday, October 3, 2021! This foodie-favorited week is the perfect time to take a culinary tour throughout the diverse and thriving food culture of San Diego. With over 90 participating restaurants offering prix-fixe menu options throughout San Diego County, you’re sure to find the perfect place to satisfy any craving.

Navigate your way through a five-course dinner aboard a yacht on San Diego Bay. Each dish is perfectly paired with delicious, local lagers and IPAs from Harland, celebrating the freshest flavors of the region, including locally sourced seafood, a full vegetarian menu and spectacular waterfront views.

Throughout the month of September we are collaborating with Thorn Brewing. Established in 2012, Thorn Street Brewery focuses on malt-forward beers and building a strong beer community. Thorn Brewing Co. began in North Park, San Diego where neighborhood folks pride themselves on walking or riding their bikes to get locally produced food, growing their own fruits and vegetables and, of course, brewing their own beer. Now the brewery has 3 locations in the San Diego neighborhoods of North Park, Barrio Logan and Mission Hills.

San Diego Botanic Garden (SDBG), located in Encinitas, hosts WORLD OF BROMELIADS, a six-week exhibition of plants in the bromeliad family, including pineapples, air plants, and the stunning Puya alpestris "Sapphire Tower". The showcase, which starts Saturday, August 14 and runs through Sunday, September 26, is open Wednesday through Sunday, from 9 am to 5 pm. On weekends, visitors can shop for unusual and unique plants at the grower direct bromeliad market.

Entrance to World of Bromeliads is included with the price admission. Members receive free admission. Non-member admissions range from $10 to $18. SDBG provides free entry to members of other gardens participating in the American Horticultural Society's Reciprocal Admissions Program.
