This Bishop Arts establishment will celebrate the arrival of 2016 with a candlelight dinner on New Year’s Eve. On the a la carte menu, created by newly-installed executive chef Matt Balke, you’ll find roasted foie gras, riesling braised rabbit, and a hazelnut-marshmallow garnished chocolate soup. The obligatory champagne toast will take place at midnight, and reservations can be made by calling the restaurant.

Not to be outdone by any other Dallas restaurant, Kitchen LTO will offer two different New Year’s Eve parties with decidedly different themes. Come early (from 6-9 pm) for a family-friendly party with a Mexican buffet and mariachis, or arrive later (from 9:30-midnight) for a “femme fetale fiesta” with drag queen performances and $5 margaritas.

This newly opened Exposition Park winery is a great place to spend a low key New Year’s Eve.

The festivities kick off on December 31 at 9 p.m.

Uchi’s approach to New Year’s Eve is to let the restaurant’s stellar sushi chefs lead the way. For $150, you can indulge in an omakase service for two, which the restaurant describes as a “full multi-course feast.” The full menu will also be on offer, along with free champagne at midnight. Reservations should be made in advance by calling the restaurant.

If your kind of New Year’s Eve party involves an early dinner and heading home to watch the ball drop, The Warwick Melrose is the perfect destination. Dinner will be served here on New Year’s Eve from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and the festivities will continue until 2 a.m. if you’re not ready to turn it in right after dinner. In The Library bar, you’ll find spiked eggnog, live music, and a balloon drop and champagne toast at midnight.

In addition to a special New Year’s Eve menu, The Cedars Social is getting crafty with the cocktails. The “Ball & Chain” cocktail, made with Ketel One, allspice dram, and pineapple syrup that will be served for $6 all night, along with specials on champagne throughout the evening. $65 buys you dinner and a “liquid amuse bouche,” which probably involves booze.

What better time to indulge in an opulent four-course dinner than New Year’s Eve? Proof + Pantry’s New Year’s Eve menu is full of fancy classics with a modern twist, like bone marrow toasts and warm roasted beets. Don’t sleep on the cocktails, either – pretty much anything you order from the bar here is going to be a winner.

Get a front row seat for New Year’s fireworks and an impressive six-course tasting menu and inventive cocktails.

If you won the lottery this year, there’s no better place to celebrate than Highland Park Village’s Bistro 31.

For a truly French New Year’s fete, get to Lavendou. Chef-owner Pascal Cayet will prepare a four course dinner full of dishes that even the most advanced Rosetta Stone-educated French speaker might stumble over, like Saumon et Coquilles St Jacques Mousse en Croûte (salmon and scallops wrapped in pastry with a Chardonnay cream sauce) and Tarte aux Pommes Chaude au Calvados (apple tart with brandy). Even if you can’t pronounce them, just smile and point – these dishes are, as the French would say, parfait.

Should you find yourself in the suburbs this New Year’s Eve, Jasper’s is a much better choice than any of those chain restaurants. The Kent Rathbun-cheffed establishment will offer a more casual four-course menu, featuring indulgent treats like lobster ravioli and Niman Ranch pork belly for just $95 per person. Make your reservation by calling the restaurant.

If you’re broke from buying all those Christmas gifts, Bread Winners is the perfect spot to get a great meal on the cheap. For just $25, you can enjoy grilled filet mignon and jumbo shrimp, a split of J. Roget champagne, and a dessert of your choice. If those options don’t suit your fancy, the regular a la carte menu will also be on offer.

Get fancy 1960s-style at Addison’s Table 13 on New Year’s Eve. The restaurant will offer a four-course meal alongside champagne, live music, and cocktails for $100 per person. Highlights of the menu include bone-in ribeye with truffle demi, miso-marinated sea bass, and lobster bisque.
