• The Block Restaurant and Wine Cellar - 201 Capitol St., Charleston, WV
  Contemporary American cuisine served in a vibrant, sophisticated setting has made The Block Restaurant and Wine Cellar a popular spot for special events in Charleston. Start your New Year's Eve dinner off by sharing a cheese, cheese and charcuterie platter, or a tapas platter. Choose from delicious salads such as goat cheese brûlée and follow it with an entrée such as Mediterranean lamb chops, filet mignon, or lemon-caper chicken. Finally, finish your holiday meal with a dessert like a lemon tart or one to share, such as chocolate bistro cake.
  
  
• The Market - 1010 Bridge Road, Charleston, WV
  Upscale Appalachian cuisine takes center stage at The Market. Sometimes it's prepared with traditional French techniques, and other times, an ingredient or dish is prepared with an Appalachian influence. You'll find dishes such as rock shrimp risotto with preserved morel mushrooms, and a twist on the usual fried green tomatoes, since they're served with a creole hollandaise sauce and house-pickled watermelon.
  
  
• Tidewater Grill - 1060 Charleston Town Center, Charleston, WV
  If you'd like to ring in the New Year with a fresh seafood dish, stop in at Tidewater Grill. The contemporary restaurant has specialized in seafood dishes for 30 years, with the menu changing weekly to accommodate what's fresh. Start by sharing a dish like Point Judith fried calamari or a chilled seafood sampler from the raw bar that includes jumbo shrimp cocktail, freshly shucked oysters, and Crab Louie. If you're feeling more decadent, you can also add lobster to your sampler. For your entrée, you'll find dishes such as baked stuffed flounder, salmon and shrimp fettuccine, miso-glazed Chilean sea bass. And if you're not in the mood for seafood, you can also find other tasty fare such as steaks and chops on the menu.
  
  
• Bluegrass Kitchen - 1600 Washington St. E, Charleston, WV
  Start the New Year with a vegetarian dish from Bluegrass Kitchen or choose from an omnivorous dish if you'd prefer.
