Earlier this year, the restaurant inside the Lodge at Saint Edward State Park got a shot in the arm when Top Chef contestant and Noma alum Luke Kolpin took it over. If you’re looking to see what he’s done with the place, Christmas Eve is as good a time as any: Cedar + Elm is offering a $125 prix fixe menu with an optional wine pairing. (The menu isn’t online, but expect seasonal PNW offerings.) To book, go here.

Just like last year, the chic Bellevue restaurant is taking reservations for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, when James Beard–winning Jason Wilson will serve a four-course meal with classic dishes like escargot and prime rib (there are vegetarian and vegan options for every course). Tickets are $95 (or $35 for children). For more, go here.

Capitol Hill’s preeminent vegan bistro has a great option for those who dislike meat or planning — on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, Plum will be serving its typical winter brunch menu from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., walk-ins only. It also has a $165 take-home Christmas dinner that feeds five to six people, which you can order here.

The oyster bar inside the Fairmont Olympic Hotel has a ton of dark oak to go along with the seafood, a pretty extravagant and scenic way to celebrate Christmas Eve. Shuckers has a prix fixe menu with main courses that include citrus-brined turkey or prime rib, and eggnog creme brulee for dessert. For adults the price is $95 to $120 and for kids it’s $46 to $60. To book, go here.

If you’re going to go out for Chinese food on Christmas, why not go with an unimpeachable classic that also has a cardboard cutout of former regular Bruce Lee? Tai Tung is Seattle’s oldest Chinese restaurant and still one of its best, serving the hits: egg rolls, Mongolian beef, sweet and sour pork... the list (and the menu) goes on. If you’re looking for something festive, you can get a whole Peking duck. You can make reservations, but you have to call the restaurant the old-fashioned way.
