It’s that time of year again… Restaurant Week! 

NYC Restaurant Week® has been a staple in the city for over 30 years. The promotional dining experience encourages diners to enjoy all of the tastes the city has to offer in the form of a fixed menu at a set price point. While the promotion typically caters to those who reserve a seat for dinner, some restaurants opt into a lunch offering in addition to dinner. With so many restaurants to choose from, here’s a list of some of our favorites to check out this NYC Restaurant Week (NYCRW)!

Junoon (Flatiron District)

Translating to “passion” in Hindi, Junoon delivers an authentic, modern take on traditional Indian cuisine while also featuring an award winning wine program. After receiving a Michelin star in its opening year (and earning the same eight years in a row), Junoon has become a shining light on NYC’s food scene and is a must for lovers of Indian cuisine.

Zuma (Murray Hill)

The brainchild of award winning co-founder and creator Rainer Becker, Zuma’s internationally acclaimed Japanese menu is authentic and bold with an emphasis on simple presentation and quality ingredients.
