For New Year's Eve, our menu is a celebration of the finest ingredients, blending local Floridian freshness with authentic Italian technique. Here is a glimpse of the "fine dining" experience that awaits you.
Begin your evening with elegance. Our Carpaccio di Manzo is a masterclass in simplicity and quality—thinly sliced raw filet mignon topped with baby arugula, shaved parmesan cheese, and a drizzle of truffle oil. It is light, flavorful, and sets the tone for a sophisticated meal. For those who prefer a taste of the sea, our Fritto Misto offers a crispy, golden delight of calamari and shrimp that pairs perfectly with a glass of Prosecco.
No Italian celebration is complete without pasta. On New Year's Eve, we highlight our signature Ravioli allo Zafferano. These handmade pockets of joy are filled with crab, leek, and potato, then bathed in a luxurious saffron sauce with zucchini and shrimp. The golden hue of the saffron symbolizes wealth and gold for the coming year—a delicious omen for 2026.
For the main course, indulge in our Agnello in Crosta di Pistacchio. These New Zealand lamb chops are encrusted with pistachios and herbs, baked to tender perfection. Or, experience the drama and flavor of our Branzino, prepared either in a salt crust to lock in moisture or Livornese style with tomatoes and olives. These dishes represent the pinnacle of "specialty cuisine."
End your year on a sweet note. Our Homemade Tiramisu is legendary in Stuart—layers of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and mascarpone cream that melt in your mouth. Or try our Cannoli Siciliani, a crispy shell filled with sweet ricotta and chocolate chips, honoring the roots of Italian dessert making.
A fine dining experience is defined by the harmony between food and wine. At Pepe & Sale, we pride ourselves on an exceptional wine list curated to enhance every dish on our menu.
New Year's Eve demands bubbles. We recommend starting your evening with a bottle of Sacchetto Asolo Prosecco. Hailing from the Veneto region, this wine offers expressive notes of citrus, honey, and white florals. It is lively, crisp, and the perfect way to cleanse your palate and lift your spirits.
If you are enjoying our Lamb Chops or Filet Mignon, allow us to pour you a glass of Amarone della Valpolicella. This full-bodied, intense ruby-red wine boasts notes of dried fruits, cherries, and licorice. Its warmth and velvety tannins make it an ideal companion for the cooler December evenings in Stuart.
For those choosing the Branzino or Lobster Ravioli, a crisp Ribolla Gialla from the Friuli region is unmatched. With elegant notes of lemon curd and green apple, it cuts through rich sauces and complements the delicate sweetness of fresh seafood.
When you dine with us, you are part of our family. In Italy, New Year's Eve is steeped in superstition and tradition, mostly revolving around food.
It is customary in Italy to eat lentils (lenticchie) as the clock strikes midnight. Their coin-like shape is said to represent money and prosperity for the coming year. At Pepe & Sale, we incorporate these traditional elements into our specials to ensure our guests leave not just full, but blessed with good fortune.
The "Big Dinner" or Cenone is the main event of New Year's Eve. It is a time to linger over multiple courses, engaging in conversation and laughter. We encourage our guests to take their time. In our restaurant, you are not just a customer; you are a guest in our home. Relax, enjoy the ambience of downtown Stuart, and let the evening unfold.
Downtown Stuart is the jewel of the Treasure Coast. The historic streets, the proximity to the St. Lucie River, and the vibrant culture make it the ultimate destination for New Year's Eve.
Located just steps from our door, the historic Lyric Theatre often hosts events and shows. A dinner at Pepe & Sale followed by a show is the classic "dinner and a theater" experience, elevated.
After your meal, take a stroll along the Riverwalk. The cool breeze and the festive lights create a romantic atmosphere that is perfect for welcoming the New Year.
Tables are filling up fast. Don't miss your chance to experience the magic of Pepe & Sale this New Year's Eve.
