We asked the server who seemed confused. He talked to the manager who told him "we're starting that tomorrow". We almost walked, but stayed and had a good meal, but at much more that I had planned to spend tonight.

Adding, Well, I went back to the page, and read all the fine print. Despite the banner headline saying that the week begins 2/22, most of the places dont' start until today or even Monday. Buyer beware, and I'm thinking that this whole thing isn't really a very good deal, if the weekend isn't included. Many of these places have mid-week specials in any case, entire meal deals or half price wine night, that bring down the dinners to the same as the Restaurant week special - or less than in some cases.

Even having found the information, I'm still disappointed that the CG didn't let us know that the promotion we were booking wasn't being offered since I was explicit on the reservation form.
