Who said restaurants open on Christmas in New York City have to serve traditional holiday food? Why not take a temporary reprieve from city life and head to the ocean? That’s where Blue Fin comes in, serving some of the most memorable seafood in the city with quality service to match.

Sushi, lobster, and oysters sure make for a unique Christmas dinner in NYC. Reservations are available through OpenTable but are going quickly, so be sure to book as soon as you can.
