Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, Nov. 26 this year, and Chicago’s best tables fill fast. Some restaurants run a buffet, others serve a set menu, and a few build the meal around a whole bird.

These nine restaurants have posted their 2026 menus. Prices are the latest published figures, so confirm them when you book.

Tortoise Supper Club

Tortoise Supper Club is serving a Thanksgiving buffet on Nov. 26. It includes an iced seafood tower, hand-carved turkey and prime rib, classic trimmings, and a dessert bar.

Adults are $107.95. Children ages 4 to 11 are $43.95, and kids 3 and under eat free.

Reservations run from 11:15 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Book through Tock or call (312) 755-1700.

The carved turkey, prime rib, and seafood tower are the items one 2026 guide highlights, and that guide notes a 20% gratuity for parties of six or more.

La Serre

La Serre in the West Loop is hosting its first Thanksgiving Grand Buffet. It has carving stations with prime rib and herb-roasted turkey, a raw bar, and traditional sides.

The regular à la carte menu isn’t offered that day. Another guide lists the price at $85 per adult and $29 for children 7 to 12, with kids 6 and younger free.

One roundup also lists ham and French-leaning starters. The same guide says the buffet runs from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and books through OpenTable.

Fioretta

Fioretta is serving a four-course tasting menu that mixes Thanksgiving dishes with house classics. Seatings run from noon to 8 p.m.

The price is $98 per adult and $29 for children, before tax and gratuity. A guide to this year’s options says the entrées include turkey, filet, prime rib, and pasta.

The same guide suggests ordering sides for the table, which are $12 each. Reservations are on OpenTable.

Longman & Eagle

Longman & Eagle in Logan Square is serving a whole-bird family-style dinner on Nov. 26. The menu centers on a Slagel Farms turkey, with brined, roasted breasts and confited legs and wings.

Bone marrow stuffing and foie butter are on the table. One 2026 guide also mentions duck-fat confit legs.

The same guide lists the price at $138, which includes 20% service, plus tax. Seatings are at 1, 3, and 5 p.m., and each lasts about two hours.

Tickets go through Resy, and the reservations are listed as final. Email the restaurant about dietary needs first.

Lure Fishbar

Lure Fishbar serves a three-course prix fixe for $85 per person. It’s a seafood restaurant, so the menu has options beyond turkey.

Starters are a fall squash soup or a chicories and roasted pear salad. Mains include roasted turkey with chestnut-sage stuffing, seared scallops with lobster risotto, or pumpkin ravioli.

A grilled filet mignon with black truffle butter is also on the menu. Dessert is a toasted pecan pie or a pumpkin pie with cinnamon chantilly cream.

Children can order a $42 kids plate with turkey, stuffing, sweet potato, and cranberry sauce. Reserve through Resy for the Rush Street location.

The Smith

The Smith in River North is serving a three-course dinner for $88 per person on Nov. 26, with seatings from noon to 9 p.m.

The signature plate is turkey three ways. A roundup of 2026 options lists breast, pot pie, and osso buco for the turkey course.

If turkey isn’t the plan, the same guide lists salmon, short rib, and squash risotto. The raw bar costs extra.

Grill on 21

Grill on 21 at The LaSalle Chicago offers a three-course dinner for $110 per person. Reservations are online.

A 2026 guide says the prix fixe includes a starter, entrée, two sides, and dessert, with a limited à la carte menu. Service runs from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Live music plays from 1 to 5 p.m. That makes it a fit for a relaxed afternoon meal.

Big Jones

Big Jones in Andersonville brings a Southern flavor to the holiday. The 2026 plan includes deep-fried Cajun turkey, stuffed collard rolls, and a relish tray.

The meal is sold as ticketed seatings. A 2026 guide lists $80 at noon, $90 at 3 p.m., and $85 at 6 p.m., with drinks extra.

Solo diners share a communal table. On the regular menu, an Infatuation review praises the gumbo ya-ya and the fried chicken dinner.

Artango Bar & Steakhouse

Artango in Lincoln Square serves a three-course Thanksgiving dinner with live jazz. It’s a good pick for a steakhouse crowd that still wants turkey.

The price is $95 per adult and $25 for the kids’ menu. The dinner is offered on Nov. 26 only.

Book through OpenTable and check seatings when you reserve.
