Reservations are now open for the winter 2026 edition of NYC Restaurant Week, where hungry New Yorkers can dine at a discount at some of New York City’s finest (and sometimes priciest) establishments–from longtime UWS favorites to the hip and new.
This round of Restaurant Week runs from Jan. 20 to Feb. 12, with participating eateries offering 2-course lunches and 3-course dinners for $30, $45 and $60. Most deals are offered between Monday and Friday, with some restaurants extending their specials to Sunday (Saturday is excluded).
As of writing, there are 581 NYC Restaurants signed up; the following 31 are on the Upper West Side (click each link for menus and reservations):

NYC Restaurant Week goes back to 1992, when it was created by Tim Zagat and Joe Baum. Since then, it has been occurring twice per year in both NYC and in cities throughout the country (outside of 2020). Since its inception, Restaurant Week has grown wildly in popularity and participation, and has been a popular draw for diners who want to get a taste of upscale restaurants without paying hefty price tags.
