San Diego Restaurant Week begins this Sunday, offering patrons 180 restaurants to choose from.

With the restaurant industry quickly growing in the region, it makes sense that there are new eateries participating in the week-long foodie event.

Provisional Kitchen, Café + Mercantile, which made its debut late last year, is participating in Restaurant Week for the first time. The trendy restaurant-marketplace offers guests seasonal dishes and a retail experience at the Pendry Hotel. For Restaurant Week, guests can expect a $40 prix fixe dinner with options such as a salmon creek pork chop and a wagyu skirt steak. The eatery will also offer a $20 lunch menu.
