If you are looking for where to eat on Thanksgiving Day in New York City, the best Thanksgiving dinner near Central Park, or a Thanksgiving Day parade brunch without the long lines, plan your restaurant before parade morning — not during it. On Thanksgiving Day, restaurants near the parade route fill fast, lines get very long, and street closures make it hard to move around Manhattan to find a table.
