As beloved NYC Restaurant Week celebrates its 30th anniversary, there are more ways than ever to enjoy the city's world-class and authentic cuisine, with inclusive pricing to ensure participation from restaurants across all five boroughs.
"We are pleased to celebrate the 30th anniversary of NYC Restaurant Week this summer, a major milestone coinciding with the palpable vibrancy in our city right now," said Fred Dixon, President and CEO at NYC & Company. "For 30 years, the program has offered exceptional deals to diners while also lifting and celebrating the restaurant community across all five boroughs, underscoring the truly authentic dining scene offered only in New York City."
The original Restaurant Week, created during the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in 1992, has been replicated in cities across the country and around the world. Barbetta, Carmine's (Upper West Side), Dock's Oyster Bar, Gage & Tollner, Gallagher's Steak House, The Palm, Sardi's, Shun Lee West, Sylvia's, Tavern on the Green, Tribeca Grill, The Russian Tea Room, Union Square Cafe, and Victor's Cafe are among the 14 original 1992 restaurants participating in this year's programme.
Diners can choose from a selection of two-course lunches for $30, $45 or $60, and three-course dinners for $30, $45 or $60, depending on individual restaurant price points, from July 18 to August 21. This pricing structure was developed to ensure that restaurants from all five boroughs, from neighbourhood eateries to fine dining, could participate. To commemorate the 30th anniversary, more than 100 restaurants will offer $30 bottles of wine on participating menus.
