29 Places To Get A Great Deal During Summer Restaurant Week

During Restaurant Week (July 25 – August 19), you can visit some of the best, most coveted, and priciest restaurants in New York City for just $29 at lunch and $42 during dinner.

This year, nearly 400 restaurants across the five boroughs are participating, which means you can get a three-course, prix-fixe meal (appetizer, entree, and dessert) at places like Morimoto, Red Rooster, and Perry Street for about the same price as a single entree at each of these restaurants.

Get the most from your money with this list of the best Restaurant Week deals in New York. Unless otherwise noted, Restaurant Week excludes Saturdays.
