Every year, the middle of July signals the arrival of New Yorkers’ second favorite summer holiday (no, not Christmas in July) — it’s NYC Restaurant Week! Running from July 21 to August 17, Restaurant Week(s) is your opinion to make reservations at that spot you’ve been meaning to try, or a place you’ve been saving for a special occasion. This time around, there are 30 participating restaurants in Lower Manhattan offering two-course lunches and three-course dinners for $30, $45 or $60. Please note that Saturdays are excluded and Sundays are optional for NYC Restaurant Week participation, so be sure to check with each spot to confirm hours of operation and available menus. Reservations are not required, but recommended. Bon appetit!
