The fifth annual Coral Gables Restaurant Week, presented by Bacardi USA Inc., traditionally sells out restaurant reservations at more than 30 fine restaurants in Downtown Coral Gables, which offer fixed-price three-course menus for lunch and dinner at a 20 percent savings off from their regularly offered fare. It runs for two weeks from June 4 to 17, just enough time to sample many of the 30 restaurants.
