Looking for a gorgeous dinner to finish out 2022 and ring in 2023? These Seattle restaurants are serving special meals for New Year’s Eve, whether you want Moroccan fine dining on a glassed-in patio in Pike Place Market, elegant Indian dishes in Ravenna, or ocean-to-table seafood and Champagne on Bainbridge Island. Some of these places are open past midnight so you can stick around for all the festivities, others are only open for dinner so you can celebrate the ball drop elsewhere after you eat, but they’re all destined to be a blast and probably sell out quickly, so make reservations asap.
