"Cecchi’s isn’t just serving a $250 five-course prix fixe menu—they’re doing live jazz, too. Snag a late-night table at the West Village American restaurant—which concocts a truly fantastic martini—and choose between things like crab cocktail, turtle soup, and surf and turf. The white tablecloths and Art Deco murals are the perfect backdrop for your last meal of 2024. Make a reservation here." - willa moore
