Prix Fixe Fatigue: Why Restaurant Week is No Longer a Deal

Restaurant Week started as a short, clever fix in 1992 and grew into month-long “deals,” yet the math has changed. Hosts Alex Norman and Jamie Blond unpack how food costs, rent, and wages climbed while drinking declined, why $60 prix fixe dinners still land at $300 with drinks and fees, and how seasonality and loud, rushed dining rooms erode the experience. With anecdotes from Miami and New York plus cultural shifts like Ozempic and Gen Z drinking habits, they explore what this says about the real state of city dining today.
