New York City Tourism + Conventions has announced that reservations for NYC Restaurant Week Summer 2026 are now open for dining from Monday, July 20 through Sunday, August 16.
The twice-yearly program invites New Yorkers and visitors to experience more than 600 restaurants across all five boroughs, offering over 45 cuisines in more than 70 neighbourhoods, at a value.
Participating restaurants will offer lunch and/or dinner prix-fixe menus featuring classic, favorite and new items. Meals are priced at $30, $45 or $60 and vary by restaurant to create affordable options at various price points. Taxes and gratuity are not included; Saturdays are excluded from the program, and Sundays are optional.
Bookings and more information can be found here.

“NYC Restaurant Week is a signature celebration of the City’s culinary scene, making dining affordable and accessible across all five boroughs,” said Julie Coker, President and CEO of New York City Tourism + Conventions.
“As New York City continues to welcome the world for a historic summer, this program boosts business to more than 600 restaurants while giving visitors more reasons to explore the neighbourhoods, cultures and cuisines that make our city one of the world’s great dining destinations.”
“New York is the greatest food city in the world. Our restaurants employ hundreds of thousands of us; they are where we gather with our families and friends, where we sample cultures and cuisines from every corner of the planet,” said Mayor Zohran Mamdani. “
NYC Restaurant Week encourages us to get out of our tried-and-true favourites and experience something new, all while supporting our incredible local businesses.”
Diners can browse participating restaurants using filters such as Cuisine, Borough, Neighbourhood, Accessibility, Meal Type, Weeks Participating and Has Menu. Collections will also be available for diners looking to choose restaurants by themes, including “Around the Boroughs,” “Celebrity Chefs,” “Classic Restaurants,” “Summer Vibes,” “Date Night,” “Dress for the Occasion,” “For the Foodies” and “Hidden Gems.”
Participating restaurants have the option to extend NYC Restaurant Week offerings through Labour Day.
