Excellent service, delicious seasonal tasting menu and wines. Loved the duck breast in particular!

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.
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

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)

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.
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 WilsonJuly 4, 2017
Consider starting with the duck liver moose. Always finish with the cookie plate.

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

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)

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 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!
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.

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.
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.

Seasonal tasting menu was bomb! Rankings best w/ lowest #. Cucumber panna cotta. #1 - scallops #2 - lobster #3 - char #4 spinach strozzapareti #5 - pasture raised beef and #6 - strawberry cheesecake.

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!
refinery29August 3, 2014
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

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
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.
@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.

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

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.

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
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.
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.

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

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

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.

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

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.
Toni HaberMarch 26, 2014
Be sure to check out the seasonal tasting menu and the season vegetable tasting menu at The Dining Room at Gramercy Tavern for a rotating menu comprised of only the best ingredients in season today.
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.
Alex HennesseyNovember 24, 2017
Dined in the tavern-- outstanding apps, unbelievable burger, great wine, chocolate pudding pie(!!); stellar, genuine service
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.

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!

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
Colin LeeJune 4, 2016
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
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
AmberOctober 27, 2016
Get the burger during lunch at the bar. Or stay for dinner and whatever you do, don't miss the seasonal cavatelli.
Владислав ГригорянцFebruary 1, 2017
Very good kitchen. If i compare this one Michelin star restaurant with my horrible yesterday experience at Madison eleven park with 3 stars, i can't understand....
Hanno NYMay 19, 2015
Fantastic food and great ambiance for a fair price - in particular if you eat in the bistro. Since you can not reserve the bistro, bring some time for the wait.
