The 2024 Winter Restaurant Week is here, and if you were hoping for a full month, as the week has somehow turned into over the years, you might be disappointed. This year, it’s not quite three weeks long. (Are they just messing with us at this point?)

From January 16 through February 4, several restaurants in the neighborhood will offer either two-course lunches or three-course dinners (or both!), ranging in price from $30 to $60. This year, Saturdays are excluded, but some local spots are offering prix fixe menus on Sundays. 

Some restaurants on the list are the same ones that participated in last year’s Summer and Winter Restaurant Weeks, but there are many newcomers, too, making this year’s list a bit more exciting. 

Participating Greenpoint restaurants include Kru, Esme, Pierozek, and Sereneco. Participating Williamsburg restaurants include De Mole, Antica Pesa, Pomp and Circumstance, Mable’s Smokehouse, Barano, Brooklyn Winery, Recette, Leuca, Kokomo, Fandi Mata, elNico, Isla & Co., Tonchin, Xolo, Pizzette, Muchmore’s, Le Crocodile, Neeloo, Terasa, and Clinton Hall.
