Delmonico’s Restaurant

We’ve said it before, and we’ll happily say it again — Delmonico’s is a classic restaurant in Downtown and simply a must-visit! Their steaks are sublime and the rest of the menu is too. Basically, you can’t go wrong here. Appetizers for restaurant week include Acquerello risotto and pan-roasted scallops, while the entrees, of course, have steaks or you can choose lobster and even chicken. End with a lovely dessert like Baked Alaska or, when in NYC, a New York Cheesecake. They are open for restaurant week reservations Monday through Friday for lunch and dinner.

 

Cipriani Wall Street

Cipriani’s downtown restaurant, located at 55 Wall Street, is a prime option for Winter 2018 Resturant Week. With its warm and gorgeous interiors and delicious food to match, this is really an easy choice. On the menu for these weeks are the signature Bellini and original carpaccio, the famous baked tagliolini, vanilla meringue and other Italian specialties. They are open for restaurant week reservations Monday through Friday for lunch and dinner.

 

Nobu Downtown

This is the first restaurant week in Nobu’s new location at 150 Broadway — and we can’t wait to check it out! The dishes are perfectly designed by Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, an innovator of new style Japanese food. And the design by architect David Rockwell, in which you’ll be enjoying Seafood Ceviche or Rock Shrimp Tempura with Creamy Spicy Sauce, transports you right to the Japanese countryside. They are open for restaurant week reservations Monday through Friday for lunch.

They are open for restaurant week reservations Monday through Friday for dinner.

 

Amada

This Andalusian tapas bar and restaurant in a contemporary setting is a neighborhood favorite. Chef Jose Garces embraces the rich traditions of Spanish gastronomy while incorporating modern tapas. Amada is serving up some unique signature dishes for restaurant week such as classic guacamole, Pozole de Jalisco, Chile Relleno and so much more. They are open for restaurant week reservations Monday through Friday for lunch and dinner, as well as Sunday for brunch, lunch and dinner.
