Depends on schedule&: This depends entirely on when you go to sleep. It is best to eat no later than about 3 hours before bedtime if possible, as it takes about that long to digest your food and you will get better rest if you are done digesting your dinner before you go to sleep. This is not absolute- it depends on the size of the meal, what you ate and how well you digest it!
