What is NYC Restaurant Week?
New York City Restaurant Week is the City's twice-annual tradition that is often called culinary celebration. It has been in action since 1992.
Originally, it was created as a one-time culinary event to welcome the Democratic National Convention (DNC) to the City. The event included 95 participating restaurants and was cheerily welcomed by local residents who were excited to dine at some of NYC top restaurants for bargain prices.
Over the past years, NYC Restaurant Week has grown a lot and still remains one of the most anticipated events among locals.
What deals are available during NYC Restaurant Week?
Summer 2021’s NYC Restaurant Week has introduced three pricing tiers: $21, $39 and $125 for lunch, dinner or both. However, some restaurants may offer the $125 Signature Dining Experience in addition to or instead of a $21 or $39 offerings.
According to the official Restaurant Week website:
Restaurant Week organizers advise restaurants to offer at least an entree and a side for the first two tiers, and the $125 ticket must include three or more courses plus a little something extra like wine.
