Holiday Dinners 2026 in Sunny Isles Beach: Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve

Holiday Dinners 2026 in Sunny Isles Beach: Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve blog hero

Holiday dinners in Sunny Isles Beach in 2026 do not require a kitchen full of relatives or a single dish washed at home. Mykonos Kitchen & Bar is open for the season with three festive evenings on the water: a regular dinner menu on Thanksgiving, Christmas-format evenings on December 24 and 25, and a New Year's Eve celebration with live music, a DJ and dancers on December 31. Reservations are already open, and the dates below tell you exactly what each evening looks like and what to confirm when you book.

Mykonos Kitchen & Bar is a waterfront Greek and Mediterranean restaurant at 400 Sunny Isles Blvd in Sunny Isles Beach, with a terrace over the water, mezes and charcoal grills, a full sushi menu and a weekend brunch buffet. The current menu with prices is always on our menu page, and holiday tables are booked by phone at (786) 395-6547, through OpenTable or the contact page.

Thanksgiving Without the Dishes

Thursday, November 26 falls in the middle of the working week, and the restaurant keeps its regular dinner menu for it: start with dips and saganaki, order the grilled octopus or the lamb chops, let whoever does not want turkey have the sushi menu instead. The point of the evening is the same as every family table, the people around it, minus the cooking and the cleanup. Reservations are recommended, and large-family tables should be booked as early as possible. If you are planning the weekend around the holiday, the weekend brunch buffet runs Saturday and Sunday at noon.

Christmas on the Water

On December 24 and 25 the restaurant works in a Christmas format: festive evenings on the terrace, the Greek menu doing what it does for family tables, and the water where the lights usually are. The exact format details are confirmed when you book, so if the evening matters to your plans, call ahead and ask what is planned for the date you have in mind. Christmas tables disappear early in Sunny Isles, and a table by the water disappears first. For what a celebration looks like at this restaurant in general, we wrote about hosting your next celebration by the water and about celebrating special occasions the Greek way.

New Year's Eve: The Gala Dinner

The big evening of the season is Thursday, December 31, 2026: a four-course gala dinner with live music, a DJ and dancing on the waterfront, built to carry the table from the first toast into the sunrise.

The menu is an Aegean feast designed for two. It opens with a chilled glass of Greek sparkling wine on arrival, then a shared meze course with the trio of Greek dips, crispy handmade spanakopita and wild tuna tartare. The next course brings the festive Greek salad and charcoal-grilled octopus over Santorini fava. For the main, each couple picks a sharing platter: the slow-braised lamb shank kleftiko, or pan-seared branzino with tiger shrimp over lemon herb risotto. The sweet finale is a duo of warm bougatsa and pistachio walnut baklava with Greek thyme honey.

The evening is priced at $250 per person, $500 per couple, all-inclusive at $625 with tax and gratuity. If you bring your favorite bottle, the corkage fee is $50. The kitchen runs until 2 AM and the music and dancing until sunrise. Reservations require a 100% pre-paid deposit (Zelle, cash or check) by December 23, 2026, and all sales are final, so this is the night to book early.
