We missed a lot last summer — reunions, birthday parties, vacations.

Another much-missed tradition returns with a fury this year: DFW Restaurant Week.

The monthlong promotion for dinner specials at Fort Worth’s and Dallas’ better restaurants is back with 22 Tarrant County restaurants and more than 100 regionwide offering $39 and $49 dinners beginning Aug. 9.

Five Tarrant County restaurants will offer the bargain $39 three-course dinners, including the popular Rise Nº3 Salon de Soufflé.

Bookings opened Monday with the annual “Reservation Day,” the release of the list of participating restaurants at dfwrestaurantweek.com and the rush to book restaurants for a less expensive dinner at restaurants that would usually cost $50 or more.

The dinners in Tarrant County partially support the Lena Pope children’s agency, which received $49,058 last year from a limited takeout DFW Restaurant Week.

Here’s the list of specials, subject to change as restaurants make corrections or updates. Call for reservations or book some at OpenTable.com or Resy.com:

Aug. 9-15 only: Piccolo Mondo ($49)., Waters ($49).

Last year’s top donors to Lena Pope included Mac’s on Main, Rise Nº3 Salon de Soufflé, Grace, Mercury Chophouse Arlington, Kirby’s Prime Steakhouse, Silver Fox Fort Worth and Restaurant 506 at the Sanford House in Arlington.

For 24 of its 25 years, the Lena Pope agency has benefited from the August dinner deals in Tarrant County.

Restaurants in Dallas County also are offering specials to support that city’s food bank.

Some restaurants will offer a “preview” weekend Aug. 6-8.

The event is presented by Cadillac dealers and promoted by KRLD/1080 AM and local Audacy.com stations, the network formerly known as CBS Radio and Radio.com.
