Mount Dora Area Restaurant Week

Initial lineup features local restaurants offering special lunch and dinner menus from July 25 through August 2, with more participants and menus to be announced 

MOUNT DORA, Fla. — The Mount Dora Area Chamber of Commerce is launching the first-ever Mount Dora Area Restaurant Week, a new summer dining promotion designed to showcase local restaurants and encourage residents and visitors to explore the area’s dining scene. 

The event will take place Saturday, July 25 through Sunday, August 2. During Restaurant Week, participating restaurants will offer special prix fixe-style menus for lunch, dinner, or both, with lunch menus capped at $30 and dinner menus capped at $50. Restaurant Week menus will be offered in addition to each restaurant’s regular menu.

As a Mount Dora Area Chamber initiative, Restaurant Week is open to Chamber member restaurants throughout the area. In addition to Mount Dora dining destinations, the promotion may include participating restaurants in nearby communities such as Tavares and Eustis, giving diners a chance to experience more of the local food scene across the Chamber’s broader business community.

 The launch comes as Mount Dora continues to earn national recognition for its dining scene, including a recent No. 3 ranking in USA TODAY 10Best’s 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards for Best Small Town Food Scene.

“Mount Dora’s dining scene has always been something special, and national recognition like the recent USA TODAY 10Best ranking shows that more people are taking notice,” said Rachel O’Ryan, President of the Mount Dora Area Chamber of Commerce. “Summer can be a slower season for restaurants, and Restaurant Week gives residents and visitors a reason to get out, try something new, and support the local businesses that help define our community.”
