NYC Restaurant Week began over 30 years ago in 1992 as a one-time culinary event to welcome the Democratic National Convention that was in town. The program became so popular that it garnered a great following among New Yorkers and guests of the city. Every year sees new restaurants becoming a part of the event and it covers all five boroughs. 

Two course lunches and three course dinners will have a prix fixe of $30, $45, or $60.  Whether you want to visit a neighborhood favorite or explore a new destination, make your reservations soon. Cuisine of every sort is available and there are hundreds of eateries that are participating.

Some of our many favorites include BLACKBARN in NoMad; Mission Ceviche on the UES and the Union Square; Red Rooster Harlem in Harlem; Tamarind Tribeca in Tribeca; Mezze on the River at Battery Park;  Industry Kitchen in the Seaport; Philippe Chow in the Meatpacking District; Momoya SoHo in SoHo; Sereneco in Greenpoint, Brooklyn; Il Falco in Long Island City; and Tin Marin in the Bronx’s Riverdale neighborhood.
