Dine Drink Detroit, a ten day festival of $15 food & drink entrees, is back.

It’s always been one of our favorite events for us because of the kind price point and the variety of places to try out.

Another fun thing is there are some restaurant names almost everyone knows, and then some lesser known or newer places to give a spin.

Here’s what you need to know.

There aren’t reservations required, either. So at any of the 21 restaurants from October 16 – October 26, you’ll be able to sit down and check them out.

And I don’t know about you — but we’re all looking to save some coin while experiencing some of the best eats Detroit has to offer.

So let’s not waste any more time and dive in. I’ve put them in by alphabetical order to make it easier. You can click on the restaurant name to visit their website.
