All participating restaurants prepared specially designed menus of at least three courses and donated $3, $4 or $5 from every meal purchase to the Three Square Food Bank. Mesa Grill sold 1,997 Restaurant Week covers translating to a $9,985 donation in the spring 2014 or nearly 29,955 meals for Southern Nevada.

Las Vegas Restaurant Week began in 2007 as a way to give locals and tourists the opportunity to help out by dining out. This year marks the third annual Spring Las Vegas Restaurant Week and the eighth annual Fall Las Vegas Restaurant Week, each featuring a variety of fine dining offerings at prix fixe prices across the valley.

Proceeds from Las Vegas Restaurant Week benefit Three Square, Southern Nevada’s only food bank. Three Square currently provides more than 30 million pounds of food and grocery product – the equivalent of more than 25 million meals – per year to more than 600 Program Partners including non-profit and faith-based organizations, schools and feeding sites throughout Southern Nevada.
