Lunch is serves Monday through Friday. Pete Wells put this place on the map when he gave it two stars in December. The menu changes, but recently it included a stewed chicken dish, daal, an eggplant dish, and grilled sausage.

Shea Gallante's cozy Flatiron Italian restaurant is an ideal place to dine during the last stretch of winter. The "lunch market menu" includes a few of the chef's killer pasta dishes, plus a savory crepe, soup, salad, a broccoli rabe sandwich, and homemade cheesecake for dessert.

Seriously, that's just a few dollars more than a sandwich from a average New York deli. Served Monday through Friday. Babbo started serving lunch less than a year ago. It is incredibly relaxing to eat this food during the middle of the day in that intimate first floor dining room, especially if you don't have to go back to work.

Although these dishes are smaller than the entree portions, you will not leave hungry. Right now the courses are: eggplant with pickled chiles, orecchiette with broccoli rabe pesto, grilled heritage pork loin with agrodulce, and a slice of Gina De Palma's superb olive oil cake with gelato.

Tribeca Grill has a great vibe during the day. The dining room is packed with a mix of business people, downtown artsy types, and people that look or are rich and famous. If you're lucky, you might the King of Tribeca , Drew Nieporent, might stop by your table to say hello.

Lunch is served Monday through Friday. The menu includes luxe dishes like urchin with black bread, diver scallop ceviche, and sweetbreads with black truffle vinaigrette. If you want to sample Jean Georges during the day, make sure to make a reservation a few weeks in advance. Masaharu Morimoto's Chelsea restaurant offers a helluva bento box deal.

This is a great way to get reacquainted with a solid restaurant that you might have completely forgotten about.

The menu also includes a selection of signature cocktails, so if your splurge-worthy lunch includes indulging in a cocktail or two, a seasonal highball or The Gallery spritz may be just what you're looking for.

One thing we love about the prix fix menu at Avra Estiatorio is the amount of food with an incredibly reasonable price tag. And since there are three Avra locations around Manhattan, no matter where you may happen to be, if the desire for a luxurious Greek lunch presents itself, you may be closer to satisfying your craving than you think.

Starter highlights include a Greek salad, grilled calamari, and an assortment of Mediterranean dips and spreads served with grilled pita, among several other delicacies. Avra is known for its rotating selection of fresh seafood options, so we recommend going with the fish of the day, the grilled branzino, or the lobster pasta.

A splurgy weekday lunch is about the food, to be sure, but it's also about the vibe. Porter House is one of those New York steakhouses that doesn't come off as stuffy or pretentious, but they easily could, considering their steaks are some of the best in the city.

Plus, the view of Central Park from their Columbus Circle location makes this one of those quintessential New York City meal experiences not to miss out on. If you're going for the splurge, we recommend the three-course option, which includes main course highlights like a Faroe Islands salmon and a steak frites.

No three-course meal is complete without a dessert, so don't forget to indulge in a slice of New York cheesecake or the chocolate torte to round out a charming lunch. There's something romantic and downright fanciful about eating a luxurious French meal in the middle of the day, and we love that we don't have to fly to Paris to experience it although that certainly would be nice — we can just hop over to the West Village instead.

Libertine's team gets their culinary inspiration from cuisine du marché , the greenmarket-guided cooking found along the French countryside, and it shows, especially during lunchtime.

Menu highlights include oeufs mayo with trout roe and chives, gnocchi parisienne with maitake mushrooms, and tartare de boeuf with egg yolk and crispy shallots. Libertine also has an all-natural French wine list and a cocktail menu made with small-batch French spirits, and since it's the weekend, we recommend supplementing lunch with a boozy treat.

Opened in by restaurateur Danny Meyer of Shake Shack fame, Gramercy Tavern is a New York City landmark for fine dining. Located just north of Union Square, Gramercy Tavern is the perfect place to treat yourself to a fancy lunch, whether you work in the neighborhood or are simply riding high on your ample forage from the Union Square Greenmarket and need to reward yourself.

Suppose you'd prefer to choose your lunch adventure instead. In that case, an a la carte menu is available in the Dining Room and the Tavern, with highlights such as a seafood platter, beef tartare, roasted sirloin, and a chocolate cream pie to seal the splurge.

Lunch is served daily from am to pm in the Dining Room and served all day in the Tavern. Nozawa is a household name for anyone considering sushi one of their four major food groups.

When he opened Sugarfish, an off-shoot of his now-closed flagship restaurant Sushi Nozawa in Los Angeles, it was an homage to Nozawa's fresh, authentically prepared sushi for sushi lovers and those looking to get educated on the cuisine.

Undoubtedly, you should come to Sugarfish to experience any of the sushi on offer. The best way to do so is by indulging in one of the "Trust Me" lunch menus, available daily until pm at all five of their New York City locations, each made up of several different sushi and sashimi offerings varying in size and price.

Just Eat. Trust Me", which is most similar to what Nozawa used to serve his regulars at Sushi Nozawa. Lunch typically includes a sashimi course, seven orders of nigiri, and two hand rolls. We recommend following Nozawa's advice not to think and just trust him.

Eating dinner at Ai Fiori any night of the week, for any occasion, is always an elegant experience. Still, something about the white tablecloths and large windows overlooking midtown Manhattan makes eating lunch here seem like even more of a splurge than any other time of day.

We recommend starting with the Vellutata, a lobster soup topped with black truffle. For the main course, choose from pasta or risotto — the spaghetti topped with blue crab, bottarga, and Calabrian chili is a memorable experience — or one of the other delectable main course options, such as pan-seared halibut, pan-roasted cornish hen, or the Fiori burger.

The three-course option also includes a choice of dessert, which you don't want to miss; the affogato is the perfect ending to your feast. The high ceilings, elegant chandeliers, and antique furniture inside La Grande Boucherie set quite the scene.

Since we love a French meal any time of day, treating yourself to lunch here is a real treat. There's no prix fix option, but that shouldn't stop you from going to town on the a la carte menu.

Kick things off with something fresh and raw from the raw bar, complete with oysters, clams, lobster, and caviar, or go with a plate of garlic-slicked escargots. The steak frites, grilled Australian ribeye and grilled beef tenderloin are all memorable lunch dishes, but for something both delicious and oh-so French, we love the Croque Madame.

Like its sibling, the Croque Monsieur, the ham and gruyere sandwich is topped with a perfectly runny sunny-side-up egg and a bright, zingy salad on the side.

It should be noted that there are multiple restaurants under the Boucherie group, including Boucherie West Village and Union Square, and Petite Boucherie on Christopher Street, which do offer prix fix options. However, these other restaurants don't have the grand scale of the La Grande Boucherie location.

Manhattan's financial district may not seem like a worthy dining destination, but that's only to the untrained eye and the untraveled stomach. Manhatta is one of the shiny Danny Meyer gems living among the high rises and stock market bells around the corner on Wall Street, and when it comes to its lunch, it's an absolute bull.

During the week, you can order from the a la carte lunch menu from am to pm, which seems like the perfect time to sneak out from the office and treat yourself to an over-the-top feast. Highlights of this sky-high lunch include oysters with green tomato and horseradish granite, beef tartare, a dry-aged burger, and an American Wagyu bavette steak with cabbage and a charcuterie sauce.

Sweet selections include a chocolate sabayon tart, a Key Lime cheesecake, and a selection of American cheeses to end your meal on an extra decadent note. There are hundreds of restaurants in New York City, but when it comes to upscale, fine dining in every sense of the word, Le Bernardin is it.

With Chef Eric Ripert at the helm, Le Bernardin has won three Michelin stars and has consistently earned four stars from The New York Times after six different reviews. Le Bernardin is a seafood-lovers paradise. Our highlights are the tuna, which is thinly-pounded Yellowfin tuna with foie gras; the warm lobster carpaccio in Thai curry-lemongrass bouillon; and the crispy black bass.

The upon request section has a few non-seafood options: a filet mignon, a guinea hen, and a wild mushroom and black truffle pasta. The splurge lunch isn't all about the price tag. Sometimes, the splurge is in the amount of food that comes to the table. At Hearth, lunch is more like a late-lunch, early-dinner situation and is only available Wednesday through Friday at pm, but if you can make the time work, the meal is more than worth it.

The chef decides all offerings based on his discoveries at the Union Square Greenmarket that day, meaning that no two menus are alike on any given day or at any table. Hearth's food is always fresh and deeply comforting, like a warm hug, so if an afternoon comfort meal is really what you're after, this is what you want.
