NYC Restaurants Are Adding Lunch in Midtown | Eater NY

"Midtown newcomer the Dynamo Room, a modern steakhouse from Sunday Hospitality with chef partner Jaime Young and chef Derek Boccagno, is now serving weekday lunch (Tuesday through Friday, 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.) complete with a retro lineup of lunchtime martinis in mini and full pours ($12, $22) — Gibsons, Vespers, dirty martinis, and cosmos included. The menu spans raw bar platters ($28 to $148), entree salads, and a $30.95 express lunch featuring choices like salmon with chimichurri or hanger steak frites (add $10). On the new outdoor promenade adjacent to Madison Square Garden and Penn Station, you can dig into a lush burger dribbled with au jus tableside or segue to the more dressed-up prime rib or rib-eye, with sides from creamed greens to mac and cheese or asparagus. A less expensive bar menu and a happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday bring cheaper drinks, oysters, and snacks." - Melissa McCart
