If you haven't made plans for greeting 2010 in Kansas City, here are some options:

Grand Street Cafe is taking reservations -- they've got a surf-and-turf special ($38, lobster tail and filet mignon) or a sea bass ($32, with spinach risotto and bacon-wrapped asparagus).

La Parrilla in Lawrence has a menu influenced by Central and South American flavors -- dishes like Peruvian style octopus ceviche, seafood chowder, and Steak Parillada. Dinner is from 5 to 10 p.m. and the menu is a la carte.

The Blue Bird Bistro features its full menu as well as a number of dinner specials from 5 to 11 p.m. Keep an eye out for the butternut squash soup topped with pea shoots ($7), beef tenderloin, scallops and savory bread pudding trio ($36), and housemade cheesecake with a pecan crust and sweet potato champagne sauce ($11). There's also a four-course prix fixe option for $45; wine pairings are an additional $20.

JP Wine Bar has an optional four-course chef's tasting menu ($55): black eyed peas and braised bacon, diver scallops two ways, champagne lemon sorbet, filet mignon and homemade chocolate truffles. Reservations are recommended.

The Wine Bar has a New Year's Eve Dinner for $60 person, $100 per couple, wine included.

Barley's Brewhaus in Shawnee has a three-course dinner with suggested beer pairings: Shrimp cocktail ($13.99) or crab bisque ($6.99), beef tenderloin ($28.99) or seafood cioppino ($23.99) and chocolate espresso creme brule ($6.99).
