Christmas Dinner in NYC

There are many places in NYC that will be serving Christmas dinner on Christmas Day as well as Christmas Eve. New York City houses many restaurants that range in a huge variety of prices that could suit anyone's financial situation. During the holidays, it is important to figure out whether or not you are in the mood to cook, plan to travel and visit family, or go out to eat. This is also important just in case you need to make reservations before hand at certain restaurants. I have included the Christmas dinner and brunch menus from two different restaurants in NYC. This is just a start of course but it might just be what you are looking for. If you decide to continue your search, I suggest searching and calling some of your favorite restaurants and asking if they will be serving a special dinner for the holidays.
