Any recommendations for a special restaurant to celebrate Christmas Eve in Salzburg? Maybe something traditional (Austrian) and cozy and festive? Thanks!
Sorry I can't recommend any, but found this on the net. Maybe you can look through the individual places. The focus here is on 24 Dec and 31 Jan and has catagories from Hotels to Imbss.
The "Old Fox" is not fancy (moderate priced) but traditional Austrian (so we were told):

Linzergasse 47-49

If you want fancy and special, try the Mozart dinner:

We loved the Old Fox -- but in 2014 it closed after lunch on Christmas Eve. Hand-written sign said it would be open for dinner on Christmas Day. Very traditional Austrian. Many restaurants have a big lunch (I recall something like a sausage soup) and close at 2.
