“Ardmore Restaurant Week is one of our most anticipated events of the year. Ardmore is one of the fastest growing dining destinations in the area and Ardmore Restaurant Week gives us a chance to celebrate established Ardmore favorites and introduce our newcomers – now with lunch AND dinner options.”

Ardmore Restaurant Week showcases the wide variety of award-winning cuisines in the area. Ardmore’s chefs and restaurateurs have worked for months developing menus that will feature both signature dishes and special event-only specials. Green Papaya Asian Bistro, a newcomer to the Ardmore dining scene, will offer both lunch and dinner options including house specialty pad Thai, beef rendang, curry salmon, and mango chicken. Ardmore Q is serving up award-winning barbeque with a sampler menu including ribs, pulled pork, and smoked sausage and peppers. Marokko will serve popular dinner menu items like a vegetarian tajine seasoned with a Chef’s blend of Moroccan spices and fresh herbs. The Bercy, will feature a summer corn chowder with crab and their popular rotisserie chicken served with a pomme puree. Ripplewood Whiskey & Craft will delight diners with crispy brussels sprouts, shrimp tacos, Branzino, and filet mignon. Songsan Korean BBQ, another recent addition to Ardmore, will serve up innovative Korean dishes.
