The Tavern at Gramercy Tavern

“I had a fantastic time at Gramercy Tavern. We booked a reservation relatively last minute so we had outdoor seating. I'm not a fan of sitting outside. However, the inside was beautiful. Bread service was warm focaccia. Smoked oysters were delicious. We ordered ribs (super tender) and meatballs. I'll skip the meatballs next time - it had the same texture as meatloaf (not a fan). Ended dinner service with peach cake and beignets.”

“(Review from Dec. 2025): First time at Gramercy Tavern, we had lunch on the tavern side. We both really enjoyed everything we ate, they are serving some really solid American food. The flatbread and dips and the burger stood out above the rest. I think the burger is an all timer in the city. The milk and cookie dessert was fun but it didn’t blow us away. Gramercy also has a great cocktail program, so definitely keep that in mind. I had one of the best dirty martinis ever, it came with homemade blue cheese olives that were out of this world. As to be expected of this restaurant group, the service we experienced Michelin quality, attentive but warm and easy. They brought us a complimentary mini-cake to celebrate our anniversary, it was delicious. One great thing about Gramercy is how seasonal it is. It makes you want to return to see the new menu items and motifs. Overall, highly recommend Gramercy Tavern and can’t wait to return!”

“If I could give 10 stars, I would with no second guesses. I went with a bunch of friends for their seasonal menu and it was the best meal I’ve had in my life (and that might be an understatement). Although I couldn’t have the fish dishes, every aspect of the 5 course meal was perfect and the best I’ve ever had. Who knew gnocchi and bok choy could taste that good? Also, the chocolate flan was the best dessert I’ve had in my life and I never skip dessert. The service was impeccable and really felt genuine. If I could afford it, I would be here every night.”

“Had such a great experience at the Tavern at Gramercy Tavern. The service was outstanding from start to finish — attentive, welcoming, and made the whole dining experience feel special. The food was also absolutely delicious. The pesto bread was truly one of a kind and honestly one of the highlights of the meal. The pork shoulder was incredibly flavorful and tender, and the burger was juicy, rich, and perfectly cooked. The fish was just okay compared to the other dishes, but everything else really stood out. And the dessert… the upside down mango cake was to die for. Such a unique and memorable ending to the meal. Overall, definitely worthy of a 5-star experience and I would absolutely come back again.”

“If I had to become a regular anywhere, this would be my pick. You can tell how impressive this restaurant is by the way they execute American cuisine—which, as you know, is usually my least favorite. But they absolutely nailed it. I was genuinely so pleased with everything. The farm chicken with the onion rings were standouts. Crispy, perfectly fried. The beef steak sandwich looked incredible, but I was way too full to even take a bite—so I’ll definitely be back and will keep you posted. The beef carpaccio was delicious, and while the mushrooms pasta were slightly salty, the creamy, flavorful sauce paired perfectly with the sweet potato bun. (This is their restaurant week menu!) And let me just say—the desserts are a must. You have to get the apple pie. It was amazing, especially with the hint of balsamic vinegar and Parmesan—holy moly!! The chocolate cake came with a woodside-flavored ice cream that I had never tried before, and I absolutely fell in love. The back room is stunning, and the service is easily the kind to deserve 30% tip—attentive, polished, and welcoming. This is also an amazing spot to bring your partner to meet the family!”
