Christmas is still 4 weeks away, but if you’re thinking about eating out at one of the fabulous restaurants here in New York City, now would be the time to make reservations, they will go quickly. Here are some awesome establishments that offer Prix Fixe meals on Christmas Day, that I think are worthy of a reservation!
Marea
This Michelin starred restaurant (two stars!) is located on the border of Central Park right at the beautiful Columbus Circle. They offer a 4 course meal for this Christmas Day that you’ll likely not forget. It will run you $150 per person, and the menu will include amazing dishes such as grilled octopus and a 50 day dry aged steak.

Narcissa
Narcissa is a hidden gem. Their chef John Fraser, who also operates the Michelin Starred Dovetail, spoils us with a spectacular menu including Pork Belly with Brussels Sprouts and Steamed Bass with Cilantro-Mussel Stew. This 3 course menu is priced at $84 per person.

Brasserie 8 1/2
This French restaurant is located in the heart of Manhattan and offers the best value of my choices for Christmas Prix Fixe Dinners. For $65 per person you can treat yourself to such delicacies as Lobster Chowder and a Rack of Lamb.

As of last evening all five restaurants had reservations available, but I would strike while the iron is hot, these tables are going to be gone soon!
Merry Christmas!
