It seems one of the classic entertainment duos – dinner and dancing – has been put to the test, due to unavoidable cash-conscious mentalities. When picky with our pennies, we tend to simplify our schedules, or cut options out altogether. Dinner and dancing has become dinner or dancing, and this is not OK. Something must be done. 

Thanks to San Diego restaurants like The Fleetwood, new discount dinner menus enable locals to indulge in meals out on the town without having to sacrifice party plans. 

A new must-try downtown dinner is the 3 for $30 special at The Fleetwood. Choose an appetizer, entrée and dessert all for $30. Here is a taste of what you have to choose from.
