By Socialhood News · Il/Chicago/Rogers Park ·
Rogers Park foodies, this is your moment. North Side Restaurant Week is running now through Sunday, March 8, 2026, and the neighborhood's vibrant dining scene is front and center. Organized in part by the Rogers Park Business Alliance alongside four other North Side chambers of commerce, the event features exclusive fixed-price menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner across participating restaurants — giving residents the perfect excuse to explore local flavors close to home.
This year's Rogers Park lineup is a feast of global cuisines that reflects the neighborhood's famously diverse character. Participating spots include AKAY Tacos, Badou Senegalese Cuisine, Café Nova, Mica's Mexican Restaurant, Smack Dab, South of the Border, and Urban Tables/Mikii's Cookies, among others. From Senegalese stews to Mexican street tacos to homestyle American cooking, the breadth of offerings is a delicious reminder of what makes Rogers Park one of Chicago's most culinarily rich communities.
With Restaurant Week in full swing through March 8, there's still plenty of time to pull up a chair and support the local spots that make this neighborhood thrive.
