New Years Eve 2025

Ideal Tavern is serving up a special New Year’s Eve dinner built around good food, good company, and a great night out. The evening begins with a champagne toast and a dainty charcuterie board to set the tone for a relaxed celebration.

Guests can choose from fresh starters like the Baby Arugula Salad, House Caesar, or our Bruschetta Trio before moving into Penne Alla Vodka made with a pink champagne cream sauce. The second course offers a variety of entrée options, including 40 Clove Chicken, Eggplant Parmigiana, Baked Atlantic Cod, or upgrades like Filet Mignon or Chilean Sea Bass for a little extra indulgence.

Dessert brings it all home with choices such as Creme Brûlé Cheesecake, Chocolate Lava Torte, or classic Tiramisu. It’s a complete 5 course menu for $65 per person and the perfect way to welcome the new year.

Reservations are highly recommended since seating is limited.
