New York’s annual food celebration, Restaurant Week, starts next Tuesday (January 18) and continues for five weeks, until Saturday (February 13).
For those disinclined to venture above Canal Street, the goods news is that of all the 481 establishments participating throughout the City this year, more than five percent are located in Lower Manhattan.
Below, a list of 29 local eateries where a two-course lunch can or a three-course dinner is yours for $29, $39, or $59, depending on which plan your select. In many of these locations, the everyday prices are significantly higher than Restaurant Week offerings, which makes this value proposition a compelling opportunity to try places that might ordinarily be outside your budget. Because seats go fast, please call ahead to confirm availability and make a reservation.
