5 Crown, Prospect Heights Eateries Join NYC Restaurant Week 2022

CROWN HEIGHTS, BROOKLYN — Neighbors in Crown and Prospect Heights looking to take a bite out of NYC Restaurant Week this year will only have five options in the neighborhoods.

Four eateries in Crown Heights and one in Prospect Heights have made the list for 2022's first Restaurant Week, which launched reservations this week.

The event includes two-course lunches and three-course dinners set at $29, $39 and $59 — and, despite the name, it will run for four weeks from Jan. 18 to Feb. 13.

"With hundreds of restaurants rolling out special prix-fixe menus for a limited time, this is your chance to try it all in the most vibrant dining scene in the world," the event's website states.

Those willing to travel a little further can also find Restaurant Week deals in Bed-Stuy, Park Slope or Flatbush.

In total, 46 Brooklyn restaurants made the cut this year, a step up from previous years for the borough.

In 2019, only 12 Brooklyn eateries made the list for restaurant week, a number so low that Brooklyn started its own tradition to highlight the borough's best eats.

Still, Manhattan dominates the 2022 list with 380 eateries offering deals.

Here are the Crown and Prospect Heights restaurants that will participate:

• Memphis Seoul
• Wi Cafe & Wine Bar
• Tiny's Cantina
• La Ñapa
• Bleu Fin

Restaurant Week comes amid a surge in coronavirus cases fueled by the omicron variant. Establishments are taking precautions and will require vaccinations.

"While New York City is open, Covid-19 remains a reality for all of us," the event's website states.

"We aim to provide you with the most current information about our NYC Winter Outing programs, but due to ongoing developments, we recommend checking with venues before you go. Proof of vaccination is required for everyone over the age of 5 to participate in indoor activities, including dining in restaurants and attending Broadway shows."
