Excellent service, delicious seasonal tasting menu and wines. Loved the duck breast in particular!
The Corcoran GroupOctober 26, 2010
One of the best in New York. Don’t have a reservation? Eat in the bar area and enjoy the same standout service as in the dining room. We love the Sea Bass and the Pasture Raised Chicken.

Bill Addison's review: "I loved the way Michael Anthony used pork in ways usually associated for beef. A piggy Bolognese tossed with tagliatelle had an appealing unctuousness and meaty bite." Read more

One of the best places in NYC, both in terms of quality and value. Try the tavern for great cuisine at an excellent price. We loved the monkfish with citrus salad ($22) & the ricotta cheesecake ($9). Read more

Gramercy Tavern is the king of farm-to-table cuisine in New York City. The front room is one of the best places in New York for a leisurely lunch, or a romantic meal during the week. Read more

Dining in the tavern is always a good choice - consistently good service and delicious food. Also, they have a burger that is only available during lunch, but is worth making an effort for.

Eating a full meal at the bar is one of the great NYC hospitality experiences.

Striped bass grilled in coconut milk curry with King mushrooms and roasted parsnips, $24. Lunch in dining room is $1-2 more than in Tavern area.

From the bread and butter that open your meal to the dessert: everything in this restaurant is outstanding. The calamari and lobster starters & the main monkfish were top notch. A good find in NY.

The Burger: Only available at lunch time and at a limited quantity, this patty is made of brisket, short rib and beef topped with aged cheddar and house-made bacon served with duck fat potato chips. Read more

Go early on a Sunday night, get yourself on the list for the front room and get a drink at the bar while you wait. Seasonal new American dishes, reasonably priced for a 1-star spot, always delicious.

A secret burger place. It's a thing to go here. Come for lunch and ask for their burger. It is NOT on the menu, but they have it and it is EXCELLENT! So nice.
GothamistOctober 18, 2016
Most of the cider options hail from the New England region, in keeping with the restaurant's longstanding farm-to-table ethos, but there are also options from France, Spain and Switzerland. Read more

Order gluten-free muffins (instead of ordinary bread). Just do it, trust me. Amazing lentil soup. Octopus is a great second-course choice. Lamb is decent (but honestly not super impressed)

Went again COVID. lovely job w a la carte dining. Enjoyed a dozen oysters Duxbury. grilled sea bass, Brady had cheeseburger. Loved the fall harvest cocktail. apple crumble and panna cotta desserts
Emily WilsonJuly 4, 2017
Consider starting with the duck liver moose. Always finish with the cookie plate.
Serine BaydounNovember 2, 2016
One of the most flavorful seafood dishes I've had. Lobster bisque adds the extra touch. Let them know if it's you're bday. The cake was coconut, marshmallow and meringue. Just delicious!
Emily BrimmerMarch 1, 2016
Get the off menu burger in the tap room (and sometimes if your really nice in the dining room). Swiss and cheddar, house smoked bacon, and a house made sesame bun!
Chad HornerMarch 14, 2016
the tasting menu is amazing, but you can always go with the Tavern room and order a la carte! (pictured: shrimp w/ brussels sprouts and trout roe over black rice)
PureWowOctober 23, 2015
Grab a beer and a fancy burger at the long, L-shaped bar and bring a book or strike up a conversation with the bartender. Either way, you’ll have a low-key night of deliciousness. Read more
Krista Sande-KerbackJune 10, 2012
Beautiful decor with tons of fresh flowers around the room. The limeade was some of the best I've had, the monkfish was delicious, and they brought me a cute tray of cookies for my birthday.

Favorites include the Lamb Pappardelle as well as just about anything Mike Anthony does with chicken or smoked fish (they smoke the fish at the restaurant, it's amazing). Read more
Meg FarmerJanuary 22, 2015
Wine was superb. Beef tartare, sun chokes & oysters were amazing, as was foie gras. One chef dining with us claimed it was one of the top 5 dishes he'd ever tasted. Skip the burger, go for the lamb.
CITY GRITAugust 5, 2014
Soup & Sandwich Special for lunch is a steal! But a fancy dinner in the main dining room (reservation required) is a great splurge! The vegetarian tasting is so amazing, we didn’t even miss the meat!
Tine HaugeJanuary 6, 2017
The sea bass was fantastic and the beignets for dessert was just divine. We were so lucky to have Mike as our server, he made the whole experience even better.
Maria CulbertsonJuly 13, 2016
What's good here? Everything. Good, service, ambience. The best in New York without the pretentiousness. There's no way you can eat here and not be happy.
Douglas EllimanJuly 24, 2014
An iconic American eatery with an exquisite menu and beautiful decor. We love the farm-to-table aspect and really enjoyed their seasonal tasting menu and all the incredible selections it offered.
Jeremy CAugust 14, 2015
Meal was great from start-to-finish with the strawberry donut the best thing. Go with the prix fixe option to explore the menu. Great for a date or chill at the bar after work.

Gramercy Tavern truly deserves the rave reviews that it gets. The ambience, decor, and the food are all exceptional. I would recommend Gramercy Tavern to anyone and everyone visiting Manhattan
Silene LimSeptember 2, 2015
I have been to GT since 2000. The service and attention to detail is impeccable under the Danny Meyer tutelage. I have never been disappointed by the food nor the price points. Definite must.

Off Menu Burger: 25 lunch-only burgers per day; ground Adirondacks Grazer beef patty, German butterball potato buns; bacon-topped, clothbound cheddar; of-the-moment rotation of condiments
Katsu GotoJune 28, 2015
Drinks, appetizer, entrees, deserts, services, interior and music. Everything is so perfect. Love the coffee selection of Blue Bottle for espresso and Irving Farm for French press.
No Leftovers Jackie GebelJanuary 11, 2017
An NYC institution. Amazing food, classy and swanky without the stuffiness of an old school restaurant. One of my favorites- perfect to impress out of towners
Robb LOctober 16, 2018
My dinner start to finish - more casual at the bar - was heaven on a plate. So thoughtful and high quality, with great flavors. Gramercy doesn’t disappoint and continues to amaze me.
Alex HennesseyNovember 24, 2017
Dined in the tavern-- outstanding apps, unbelievable burger, great wine, chocolate pudding pie(!!); stellar, genuine service
@d_d_dunnJune 28, 2014
One of my favorite places to be. The burger is fantastic, however sells out quickly. Get in early for lunch and grab one. Pair it with a Mortoni or two.
Iffat JokhioAugust 10, 2014
Great for a special occasion - they really do spoil you. Splurge and go for the tasting menu - trust them they know what they're doing and are totally good with catering to specific food aversions.

Visit Gramercy's -more casual front room called the "Tavern"It has its own menu all prepared by the same chefs who cook the $100 tasting menus. Try Half Moon Ice Cream Sandwich & Cookie Plate
EpicuriousNovember 21, 2014
The bare wood tabletops of no-reservations front room give way to a more sedate scene, and a prix-fixe in the back. But wherever you sit, you're treated to Gramercy's trademark hospitality. Read more
Adam KubanAugust 28, 2013
Next time you want to eat here an font have a reservation, just sit at the bar and get the $16 soup-and-sandwich set. For just a little more than you'd normally pay for a crappy lunch, you get A+ food

There's nothing better on a summer's evening than a seasonal peach dessert. Head to Gramercy Tavern to try the peach-and-blueberry shortcake, with pecan and lemon- verbena ice-cream. Delicious! Read more
Grace FerraroApril 29, 2013
Exquisite dining experience. Food are absolute delight. Classy & elegant decor. Murals & fresh flowers completes the beautiful atmosphere. The price for the 3 meal course is def out of the question!

The unofficial official First Restaurant of New York. Though its formal dining room is a bit too too for Eater 38 contention, the front room and its seasonal American menu wins. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

Eric Kuvykin said, I frequent most restaurants in NYC. Gem. lately i have been using www.jjlist.com to find great people, great places and great deals. this restaurant is a definite thumbs up. Enjoy!

Their menu features classic comfort dishes with premium ingredients and culinary flair. I indulged in the truffle macaroni and cheese & it exceeded all expectations-creamy, decadent, and delicious.
Lori LuoAugust 10, 2014
A separate tavern and dining room can accommodate any occasion. Diners in the latter area can choose the excellent Seasonal Tasting Menu, six courses of utter perfection.
Tasting TableNovember 7, 2014
Consider the unconventional creations from Gramercy Tavern's like the apple pie-meets-strude. This autumn desserts revolve around Eastern European & Americana-influenced sweets. Read more

We ate at the tavern, which is first come first serve, no reservations and no dress code. The dining room requires collared shirts for guys. Highlights of our meal was off the menu burger & sea bass
Serious EatsMarch 5, 2013
In the tavern section, great food and drinks can be had at a fraction of the cost of a meal in the main dining room.
