By , About.com Guide

Tribeca Grill Restaurant
It's time again for that wonderful New York City tradition -- Restaurant Week! This winter, you can celebrate the 20th year of New York Restaurant Week with 20 days of dining deals at Manhattan’s trendiest and best restaurants from January 16 through February 10, 2012.

New York's top restaurants will serve three-course lunches for $24.07 (in a play on 24/7, though keep in mind that the discounts are not good on Saturdays and optional on Sundays) and three-course dinners for $35.00 (beverage, tax and gratuity not included).

New York Restaurant Week started in 1992 as a one-time lunch promotion for visitors to NYC during the National Democratic Convention. Since then, Restaurant Week has become a biannual tradition embraced by New Yorkers and tourists alike.

More than 320 top NYC restaurants will participate in NYC Restaurant Week this winter. The list of participating restaurants includes the Megus uptown and downtown, Spice Market, Dos Caminos, Nobu, Tao, One If By Land, Two If By Sea, Blue Water Grill, and many others.
