Love good food, but don’t want to break the bank? It’s your lucky week(s). Only three months after , Park Slope residents are once again in for a gastronomic deal with NYC Restaurant Week.

, located in the heart of Park Slope, is offering three-course prix fixe meals from July 16th to August 10th. Executive Chef-Owner Ryan Jaronik, formerly of Monkey Town, says Restaurant Week “is a great opportunity to try [restaurants] out for the first time.”

The prix-fixe prices that allow you to snag lunch for $24.07 and dinner for $35 have not risen since 2006, which Jaronik stresses is a fantastic deal, considering the filet mignon found on the dinner menu would usually cost that much by itself.
