New York City is expensive, even just for a meal. Two hotdogs at a hot dog stand can cost up to $16...yeah, no thanks. I may love living large, but my wallet certainly does not, and trust me, having an adorable wallet (See post here) only makes spending money just a teensy bit easier. You know what makes it a lot easier to go out? NYC Restaurant Week! From July 22rd to August 16th, select restaurants will have $26/person lunches and $42/person dinners, which is an absolute steal when you think about it.
Chez Josephine:
As anyone who has ever met me knows, this is my absolute favorite place. Their food is delicious, and the decor is perfect. Their restaurant week dinner deal is perfect for a pre-Broadway meal.
Beauty & Essex
This is my absolute favorite brunch place. You walk in and it's an antique pawn shop, and you have to give them your reservation name and you'll be transported to an entirely different place. Words can do it no justice, you seriously have to see it for yourself. If you happen to go off from the menu, I highly recommend the red velvet waffles!
The Flatiron Room
Located in the Flatiron District, this spot is perfect for a stop on a festive night. It has an exquisite 1930's vibe to it, and there's even live music! I was taken here for my birthday last year and it was a great place to end the night. It's a prime place for date night in my opinion. They also provide whiskey and cheese classes every Saturday for the month of August!
Queensyard Kitchen
My friend went here a couple of weeks ago and insisted that I put it on this list! They said that the aesthetics are so chic, and their kale salad is to die for. They also recommended going there for afternoon tea; it lends itself for the perfect get together for a meeting with friends. I'm putting this on my want to try list for sure, and I recommend you do too.
Serra by Bierra
This is located in the Eataly location in the Flatiron District. Eataly is one of my favorite places to eat; their food is always top notch and delicious, and the place is decorated beautifully. The entire building in general is an Italian food store with so many different vendors, you can get lost in a manner of minutes. Their food is fresh, and inspires me to cook every time I'm there. They change their decor every season, so it's a surprise every few months. Their food never disappoints and if you pick one place from this list, it HAS to be this one.
