Dining from Christmas Eve to New Year's Eve 

The Christmas holidays are a special time to be enjoyed together with loved ones: after all, there is nothing nicer than getting together with friends and relatives, exchanging gifts and enjoying delicious meals in good company.

If you are looking for a restaurant to hold your celebrations, we have several proposals for you: whether you wish to dine on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or New Year's Eve, you'll find prestigious venues and menus prepared down to the last detail. 

The full list of restaurants that have organised special events for the holidays is available via this link. Below are a few proposals we've selected.

Christmas Eve in the historic centre of Rome

If you're heading to Rome for your holidays, why not celebrate Christmas Eve at the Great Gatsby Restaurant? Just a short distance from the historic city centre, the restaurant is located inside UNAHOTELS Decò Roma but is also open to external guests.

Easy to reach, it will enchant you with its striking architectural design and interior design with elements reminiscent of the Art Deco style, such as the rosewood tables.

In this place where tradition meets the present, you'll discover a menu full of unforgettable flavours. 

We start with a welcome entrée: cod mantecato with puntarelle emulsion and Jerusalem artichoke chips, followed by astarter of crispy monkfish with avocado and battered vegetables. 

This brings us to the first course, the calamarata with prawn, pistachio and burrata sauce, while the main course consists of a fillet of ombrine served with bacon Amatriciana and pumpkin. 

Don't miss the final dessert, a tiramisu made with pandoro, Alchermes and chocolate. For further information, you can contact the restaurant on +39 3386636212 or via email: ilgrandegatsby@unacucina.it.
 

Turin, waiting for midnight 

The refined 5-star setting of the Principi di Piemonte | UNA Esperienze that will bring a touch of elegance to the last night of 2024. 

In addition to live musical performances that will enliven the evening, the gastronomic delights served at the renowned Casa Savoia restaurant, led by Chef Michele Griglio, will make saying farewell to 2024 even more special.

The New Year's Eve dinner will open with vermouth-marinated capersanta walnut, parsnip and guanciale powder, lobster, celeriac and mandarins, as well as duck foie gras terrine, brioche and Cougnà mustard. 

This will be followed by a triumph of flavours: Carnaroli risotto with scampi, artichokes and candied tomatoes as the first course, and for the second course, roast Fassona fillet, truffle potato millefeuille, black peel and Barbaresco sauce, a tribute to local tradition. 

A sweet conclusion to the dinner will be "La nostra opera", a dessert that's just waiting to be discovered and above all enjoyed amid the striking elegance of the Casa Savoia restaurant.

To book a table and savour the scintillating party atmosphere in the heart of Turin, simply call +39 3386676963 or write an email to casasavoia@unacucina.it. The evening is also open to outside guests.  
 

New Year's Eve dinner by the sea
 

The Versilia Lido | UNA Esperienze. Open all year round, you will be able to immerse yourself in the unique charm of the Versilia Lido in winter during the Christmas holidays.

New Year's Eve promises to be a very special night with live musical performances from a talented violinist, and of course an unmissable DJ set to keep the party going.  

As for the dinner itself, on 31st December, the Versilia Garden Bar & Restaurant will provide an initial aperitif with a glass of Cerrus Rosè from Tenute del Cerro and a selection of canapés and appetizers. 

You will then move on to the sit-down New Year's Eve dinner, which opens with a terrine of Alaskan Carbonaro accompanied by parsley cream, lemon brioche and anchovies paired with Toscana IGT Pian di Seta 2024 from the Tenuta di Monterufoli. 

First courses include risotto with lentils, burrata and lobster ragout and saffron crêpe cannelloni with braised guancia and celeriac purée. This will be followed by a slice of baked ombrine, caciuccata sauce and black cabbage with potatoes in EVO oil, all accompanied by a Collio DOC Chardonnay 2023 - Villa Russiz.

Meat connoisseurs will be enchanted by the Madeira beef fillet and liver pate with truffle sauce, to be enjoyed with the Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva DOCG 2023 wine from the Tenute del Cerro. 

To conclude the gourmet New Year's Eve dinner, there will be a dessert buffet with Moscato D’Asti DOCG La Gatta 2022 – Vite Colt.
