Punta Dura - Daring to be Different for Queens Restaurant Week

Punta Dura is doing things a bit differently for Queens Restaurant Week, and they're certainly standing out. Instead of a Monday - Friday offering, they're changing things up with a Tuesday - Sunday promotion from 10/6 - 10/18. I got a hold of their menu below, which sounds scrumptious (the fish is highly recommend).

Punta Dura Restaurant Week Menu - $25 per person, prix-fixe

Appetizers
(choice of one)


Vegetarian Split Pea Soup - Topped with homemade croutons

Caesar Salad - Romaine lettuce, homemade croutons and Caesar dressing

Fried Calamari - Lightly fried calamari served with marinara sauce

Spiedini all Romana - Layers of mozzarella & bread, fried & served with anchovy caper sauce


Entrees
(choice of one)


Filet of Sole - Broiled filet of sole with yellow rice

Three-Cheese Lasagna - Classic lasagna with ricotta, parmesan and mozzarella cheeses

Capellini Primavera - Capellini pasta served with chef's selection of seasonal vegetables, garlic & oil

Stuffed Peppers - Red peppers stuffed with ground beef & seasonings, served with whipped potatoes

Petite Steak - 8 oz petite steak with marsala and mushroom sauce, served with whipped potatoes

Chicken Scarpiello - Sausage, white wine & fresh rosemary served with chef's selection of seasonal vegetables


Dessert
(choice of one)


Tiramisu

Key Lime Cheesecake

Fruit Tart


Another cool feature is Punta Dura on Opentable - you can make your reservation directly on the site and get dining points. I'm sold...are you?
