Not cooking this year? Here's who is serving Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in 52 cities: the set menu and price, the Feast of the Seven Fishes, and the dim sum and Chinese places that are always open.

Tell me as Christmas menus land

Most restaurants post Christmas Eve and Christmas Day menus from mid-November, and the good tables go first. Chef keeps reading your city and emails you when new ones are out. At most one email every few days, and nothing after Christmas.

This also opens a free Chef Amazing account: keep the places you love, the lists friends send you and your next trip. Your address is never shared or sold.

More for the holidays

Chef Amazing reads restaurants' own pages and local press and only links what that search returned. Last year's menus are labelled as such until the 2026 one is out. Photo: Wikimedia Commons.

Chef Amazing remembers every place you ate, keeps the lists friends send you, and helps you cook it at home.
