London Lennies, located at 63-88 Woodhaven Blvd., will offer a three course lunch menu for $26 and a three-course dinner menu for $42. The pre-fixed menus include dishes such as braised short ribs, seared salmon and seafood pasta.

The Italian restaurant Maiella, located at 4610 Center Blvd., and Meet the Meat steakhouse—at 2392 21st Street—will offer Restaurant Week deals for dinner, with both eateries featuring a $42 pre-fixed menu.

Diners can choose from dishes including gnocchi, sea bass and panettone bread pudding at Maiella, or filet mignon and tiramisu at Meet the Meat.
