New Year’s Eve at The Waterboy

This year, we’re once again hosting a prix fixe event inspired by our beloved Thursday Dinners— the format you know and love, with a little extra sparkle for the holiday. We hope you’ll join us for an evening that’s as delicious as it is festive as we welcome 2026 together!

On New Year’s Eve we will be featuring a multi-course prix fixe menu to be enjoyed by all guests who are dining with us that evening. We will have a special menu for our vegetarian guests as well. These will be the only menu available on this special night.

Seating is limited and tickets must be purchased in advance (tickets are non-refundable but can be transferred at the coordination of the purchaser).
