Does anyone know of any nice restaurants open on Christmas day in the Tampa/St. Pete/Clearwater area? Usually they print a list somewhere in the Times or the Tribune but I haven't seen anything this year.

We've never eaten out on Christmas but thought we'd try it since there are no little ones in the house this year.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Think Asian. They're usually open, and filled with Jews, Pagans, atheists, and anyone else for whom December 25th is not irretrievably linked to turkey and ham.
I think Kally K's in Dunedin is open, and a handful of others as well. But make reservations.

We went to the Airport last Christmas and ate at one of the restaurants there.

Marchands Bar & Grill - A Modern Classic is at the Vinoy Hotel & Resort in downtown St. Petersburg - open and have often enjoyed Christmas dinner there but you must make a reservation.

I love the comment about Asian food- pretty fun AND true! Thanks for the link to Marchand's, it looks lovely.

In case anyone else is wondering, I have been calling around as well as posting this thread and found two nice places that are open: Bob Heilman's on Clearwater Beach and Lauro's Italian on Henderson in South Tampa.

Happy Holidays to All!

These might be more casual than you're looking for, but the Tick Tock Diner on 4th St. in St. Petersburg and Wildwood BBQ on Gulf Blvd in St. Pete Beach are scheduled to be open Christmas Day. I had Christmas dinner at the Pasadena Steak House in South Pasadena a few years ago, so I imagine they are open this year also.
