Folks who want to try some of the best-known Rock Hill and Fort Mill restaurants can do it on a deal, with the arrival of two restaurant weeks.

South Carolina and Charlotte each have restaurant weeks where eateries set fixed-price menus. They overlap this month. Most options include appetizers, an entree and dessert, and many restaurants encourage reservations.

Last year, York County launched its own restaurant week with the YoCo Taste Trail Week. That event happens in the summer.
