Basically, eateries in the NYC area are holding a promotion where you will be able to get high class food at middle class prices. It tends to be a good deal and those particiapting in this can be found at
http://nymag.com/restaurants/article...week/index.htm I've gone a couple of times before and was underwhelmed. However, several posters here like Daver and El D seemed to have had great experiences at this event. I can probably make it to no more than 3-4 places this year. What should my picks be? |

I have eaten at both L'impero (Italian) and DB Bistro Moderne (French). Both are very good, and I still have fond memories of the waterless homemade pasta I ate two weeks ago at L'impero.

[/ QUOTE ] I really like Gotham Bar & Grill. However, I have also been underwhelmed with my Restaurant Week experiences. I've done it 4-5 times, and maybe had 1 good meal - the menu is usually way too limited. |

If anybody strongly recommends any of these, especially on the upper west side or midtown west, I'd really like to know. If anyone wants to try a few of these let me know too.

I don't know what their restaurant week menu looks like, but I think you would be satisfied. |

I've had good Rest. Week meals at JoJo and the now defunct Union Pacific.

I have been vastly disappointed by Restaurant Week. The service blows, and the shortened menu doesn't really equate to a "great deal" as one might think. I'd rather pony up the real menu prices for great food and drinks during non-Restaurant Week.

Tabla, 21 Club, Tao (becoming overrated as hype has become so huge), Blue Fin, China Grill, as well as some of the others already mentioned.
