It may not be spring — that doesn't happen until March 19 — but it IS time to make your reservations for Spring's Hudson Valley Restaurant Week (HVRW).

The two-week event, which goes from April 8 to 21, features more than 140 restaurants spanning Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Ulster, Orange, Sullivan, Dutchess and Greene counties.

Prix-fixe lunches and dinners will be offered at $24.95, $29.95, $39.95 or $44.95 and do not include tax, beverages, or gratuity. Among the newcomers to the list are The Urban Hamlet in Bronxville; Alba's Restaurant in Port Chester; Shiraz Kitchen in White Plains; and My Cousin's in Mahopac.

According to Mike Martinelli, Today Media’s Hudson Valley Group Publisher, the different dollar amounts give diners a variety of options to choose from. The prices, which are designed as an incentive to drive the eat-and-drink-local movement, haven't changed from the fall event, which ran Oct. 30 to Nov. 12, 2023.

Started in 2006 by Valley Table magazine, this biannual promotion is one of the largest Restaurant Weeks in the country and is meant to promote the chefs, restaurants, ingredients, farmers, artisanal producers, winemakers, and purveyors based in the Hudson Valley region.

The event is not to be confused with the various Restaurant Week promotions offered by specific cities, towns and villages such as Suffern's, which ended Feb. 29, and Yonkers which goes until March 10.
