Social Resto Café Bar, the vibrant European restaurant in the heart of downtown Atlanta (http://socialintown.com), will participate in the Downtown Atlanta Restaurant Week that takes place from July 26 – August 8 (http://www.atlantadowntown.com/fun/restaurant-week). Owner Rheda “Ray” Chikhaoui and his Executive Chef Khaled Chebbi have designed two special menus for guests who want to sample Social Resto’s mix of European, Mediterranean and North African cuisine.

This event, which actually lasts two weeks, showcases Downtown Atlanta restaurants with special dining promotions of three-course dinners for $25 and $35 per person, plus tip, plus tax.  Social Resto’s $25 dinner menu offers diners the choice of three appetizers, including Gazpacho or Andalusian Meatballs; four entrée choices, including Cornish Hen Tajine and Vegetable Ratatouille ‘Lasagna,’ while Crème Brulee or Chocolate Pot de Crème round out the evening.

“We’ve also designed a $35 menu and would love for you to come back to taste it during the second week of Restaurant Week!” smiles Ray. “Of course, this enhanced menu will still reflect our international kitchen – and it will include specialty ingredients such as crab meat, whole snapper and lamb.”
