2017 should be an exciting year for foodies and for anyone visiting New York City. Here is what to look forward to in NYC in 2017 including exciting restaurant openings, fun foodie events and more! We are forecasting a year of good eats!
NYC Restaurant Week Winter 2017
NYC Restaurant Week is one the best times to be a foodie in an already amazing city for dining. The winter Restaurant Week starts January 23rd and lasts until February 10th. There were some great deals last Restaurant Week for very popular restaurants such as Tavern on the Green and Vandal so we can’t wait to see the list in 2017.
Canal Street Market – 265 Canal St
The Canal Street Market is an exciting food hall and retail space in Chinatown and it should be fully open in 2017. The space is huge and it is located next to the Canal Street subway station. There should be a number of interesting food options ranging from yummy Italian sandwiches to bubble milk tea and much more plans are in the works.
Burger & Lobster Midtown – One Bryant Park
Burger & Lobster keeps the menu simple. You can only get a burger, a lobster or a lobster roll here and they are all amazing. They are opening a new location in Midtown by Bryant Park so it is just a short walk from Times Square. This is an amazing addition to the area and it is sure to be very popular.
Tim Ho Wan – 85 4th Ave
Tim Ho Wan is a dim sum chain based in Hong Kong and they are best known for being the most affordable restaurant in the world with a Michelin star. They just opened their first location in New York City and the lines are going to be massive. They currently have a soft opening and will have their grand opening on January 18th.
Summerstage 2017
Summerstage in Central Park is the biggest outdoor summer concert series in New York City. Some of the biggest names in music have played here and it is always a ton of fun. 2017 should be no different. Plus with their partnership with Smorgasburg, there will be interesting and delicious food here too.

Finally after years of renovations, the new Pier 17 should open sometime in 2017 and it will feature a bunch of new dining and shopping options at the South Street Seaport. We are especially excited to hear more about Jean-Georges’ new restaurant and food market.
