Restaurant Review – Christmas Day Restaurants

If you’re still in the city and don’t have someplace to be on Christmas Day, the following restaurants have got you covered!

Longman & Eagle isn’t just for millennials and whiskey lovers anymore. Today, it’s the place for fans of Chinese takeout to go for their spin on crab rangoons, General Foie’s fried chicken, pulled pork tofu, and duck confit bao. No reservations are required! Find more information here.

Craving pizza? Chicago’s Pizza in Lakeview is open Christmas Day for delivery, dine-in, and take-out. The Ravenswood location is open for delivery only and the other two locations are closed. 

If you’re looking for a classic Christmas cocktail, look no further than Sportsman’s Club in the Ukrainian Village. This is a Humboldt Park fan favorite, where there will be good music and ever better booze from 8 pm to 2 am this evening. Try a spiced Old Fashioned for $10, play a round of checkers, and soak up the Christmas spirit. 

Can’t decide between brunch and dinner? You don’t have to at Andie’s! This Andersonville Mediterranean mainstay has a buffet all day long. One side features dinner options like ham, gyros, grilled eggplant, kabobs, and falafel. The other features brunch favorites like chocolate pancakes and greek omelettes.  

Grassroots is cooking up a delicious three-course holiday dinner. You can choose from organic Harrison Farms free-range turkey, top loin roast, fresh fish, or vegetable gnocchi. There’s also smoky cream of cauliflower soup and salted caramel cheesecake. Yum!

Artango Bar & Steakhouse has a flavor packed prix-fixe with lobster bisque, ribeye, and branzino. There will also be a live guitarist playing Christmas songs, along with Latin jazz numbers. 

There’s plenty of restaurants in the city that will make you feel at home today! Merry Christmas from all of us here at Dean’s Team!
