When is restaurant week nyc 2011

Here are our top picks, and even recommended dishes, for those restaurants which have already divulged their Restaurant Week menus.

But whether you're visiting NYC or live here, don't wait too long to make your reservations—bookings at these and other top tables are going very quickly, so make yours at OpenTable , where you can also pick up points each for your reservations. Bon Appetit! You might think by the name that this is a very casual cousin of chef Daniel Boulud's eponymous Michelin 3-star restaurant.

But you may even feel underdressed in business casual attire—Cafe Boulud itself has one Michelin star and has a quite formal atmosphere, filled by older, well-heeled residents of the neighboring Upper East Side, as well as guests of the elegant Surrey Hotel that Cafe Boulud is ensconced in. It always starts the way you wish more restaurants would, with a basket of warm homemade bread that's so good, you feel you could make a meal of that alone.

But save room for a menu that is equally strong in seafood and meat. If we had to criticize, desserts are not mind-blowing, but you'll probably be too happy from the bread, appetizer and main dish to care. While the Carlyle Restaurant involves another trek to the Upper East Side and an even more formal setting than Cafe Boulud that may have you seated next to New York's business elite or even celebrities, don't let that faze you from enjoying its rich French cuisine.

Riverpark is a newcomer, opened earlier this year by celebrity chef Tom Colicchio. Everyone else: you've been warned.
