You could cook at home this year. Think of it: the family gathered around the fireplace, the smell of turkey wafting through the air. Uncle Ned getting drunk and gassy. The kids screaming at each other, piles of dishes overflowing the sink, baked on gravy that you need a jackhammer to remove, grandpa Bill slipping on the patio, the dogs running back and forth, and, your secret – you caught the cat licking your freshly roasted bird. Why go through all of this? Do what I do and gather a group of friends for Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant.
This list will be updated as more restaurants figure out what they are doing, so check back – it will be at the top of the page. As of this time, all of these restaurants have reservations available. You’ll find businesses offering to-go options at the bottom of this page.
