Harlem Restaurant Week runs from Oct 19 through Oct 31 and of offers a taste of the flavors of Harlem. 

Here are some of them:

Archer & Goat - A casual atmosphere and comfort foods like Crispy Brussels Sprouts, Roasted Corn Salad, A&G Burger with fries and Tres Leches Panna Cotta. A 3-course frix fixe meal goes for $35.

Bistro Casa Azul - Look for some Latin flare in dishes like Ceviche de Camarones, Flank Steak Tacos and a Double Cut Ribeye. Wash it down with a classic margarita or mojito.

Dinosaur BBQ - A good stop for drinks and stick-to-your-ribs comfort foods. Think Bar-B-Cue Chicken Wings, BBQ Ribs, Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Bowls. Drinks include the Dino Demise and Donkey Punch. 

Fieldtrip - A Harlem favorite for rice bowls topped with things like Crispy Chicken, Seafood Gumbo, Fried Fish and BBQ Brisket. Sides include Crab Pockets and Nana's Bread with a red curry carrot dipping sauce.

Harlem Shake - Exactly what the name suggests, a burger joint (using Pat LaFrieda's signature blend) that is also serving up Mama's Fried Chicken and a namesake "red velvet" shake.

LoLo's Seafood Shack - Dive into a bowl of spicy crawfish or crab legs. Aside from seafood steampots, dinsers will also find things like Bilizean Conch Fritter, Jerk Ribs and Fried Crab Cakes.
