Our waiter was kind but messed up our order twice; we waited forever even tho they were not full for Extremely mediocre food. We had brunch. The syrup was bitter; we were told the French toast came frozen in a box. The pancakes in no way resembled what one would typically think of when asking for pancakes. Drinks were astronomically expensive and too sweet. It’s a never again for us.

Went with 6 people. They got 4 orders wrong. Messed up two allergy issues. Avoid!

Service: was slow and extremely inattentive. After finally getting our order in we were told ten minutes later that the kitchen was out of that item. At the end we asked for our check and waited 15 minutes. We eventually went to the server’s stand to ask again, where we were presented with a card reader for payment (without being given an itemised receipt). We have been to the Harvest restaurant in Greenwich and had good experiences so were excited to visit this location. Food: a member of our party had a grilled chicken salad which was missing walnuts, cranberries and cheese as advertised. We would have voiced this but staff were too busy. Our other salads and sandwiches were nice considering cheaper lunch pricing. Atmosphere: Restroom area had a strong odour and was poorly maintained. Outdoor patio had broken glass on the steps down to it.

Will not be returning. First off when we went to be seated there was large shards of broken glass on the bench seat. Crazy safety issue if anyone was to sit on that!!! When I pointed it out I was told “there was a party the night before” ok so you don’t clean?? Than I went to the restroom and was greeted by an unflushed toilet. After they moved our seat my husband got gross gum all over his pant leg because it was under the bench where his leg folded. No apologies for this no free drink or dessert to make up for it. A very sweet waitress helped us remove the gum as best she could. Food was ok. Came out lukewarm and ice cream came out melted. Not great overall.

Amazing atmosphere and food…take the elevator entrance! The grilled Octopus and steak tar tar were great! Finish with an espresso martini for dessert!

Fabulous food, inventive and beautifully prepared and presented. I have had occasional difficulty with service here, especially pre-theatre. Very attractive, but can be very noisy. The patio is great. Great setting for a leisurely meal outside.

I used to really like this place a few years back. I went more recently in February and we liked some of the food but one dish was really bland and we just weren’t impressed overall especially given the prices. We figured we’d give it another chance tonight since it was New Haven restaurant week. We made a reservation but when we showed up they didn’t have a table for us. They offered to let us wait until a table finished their dessert and settled up, but we had a show to catch so had to leave :/

Loved the ambiance and the service was excellent. The Salmon was delicious and worth making another trip!
It's three stars because this is one of the single most split experiences in all New Haven. The back dining room is some of the best, the front bar feels like a completely different restaurant (is it?). Happy hour is solely at the high tops, which is weird, but not entirely unheard of. Somehow it feels like the staff at the back got training but the staff at the front didn't. Totally weird. If you go, SIT IN THE BACK (to the right of the door) and you'll have a 4/5 star experience. Sit up front and you're liable to have a 1-2 star experience where you're ignored the whole time and some jerk plays loud YouTube videos of sawing metal at the bar and will be subjected to totally irrelevant content on the weird bar screens. Seriously this is the most split personality bar/restaurant in the region.

First time here and I met a live band. I am not sure how often it happens but it was very lovely. The atmosphere is very calming. I enjoyed the food but more so the atmosphere. Staff were pleasant and the menu was good. We had the steak and the branzino. Really loved the orzo (?) that came with the branzino! The elevator was not working the day I came so I am not sure I can comment on accessibility or how often it happens. When the elevator was out we used the stairs which are steep but have guardrails to help support individuals. Also it was raining during my visit so outdoor was not available but I have seen it come to live on days it is open and it looks lovely.

We always have a great meal at Harvest! I crave their shaved Brussels salad and crispy artichokes and know I can always find a delicious entree. Their longtime staff members are always kind, welcoming and attentive!

I have enjoyed dinner at Harvest several times and it has always been an excellent experience. Service was excellent, the food is always delicious and cooked exactly as requested. There is something for everyone. We were celebrating our son's 40th birthday. I mentioned this when I booked the reservation in OpenTable. The wait staff didn't miss a beat and had a birthday sparkler and sang to him. Smiles all around.

A great location in downtown New Haven near Yale. Harvest has the best outdoor dining in New Haven, down below street level secluded from busy roadway and sidewalk traffic. Inside it has a very trendy and cozy vibe. Have been frequenting this restaurant for a few years now and they have been pleasantly consistent with both their interesting cocktails and quality food offerings. First time I came here was just for cocktails on my birthday and knew I had to come back and try the food. There are plenty of small plate selections to choose from that suffice as either dinner or appetizers. The crispy calamari and crispy artichokes are go to favorites. There are several really good entrees on the regular menu but there are daily specials as well. The hanger steak is very delicious and so is the halibut. Most recently had the pan seared sushi grade yellowfin tuna that was amazing. The value is good for the money and I leave here feeling content. The service is attentive and plentiful. Shoutout to the owner/manager Wilson who makes us feel welcomed and happy that we came. Look forward to our next visit!
