We love Harvest Tavern at the Mountain View Grand. Chef Andrew and his team always do an amazing job! The food is consistently great, and the service never disappoints.
They catered our wedding weekend and everything was absolutely delicious—our guests still talk about it. We’ve also eaten here many times since, and it’s always a fantastic experience. The breakfast buffet is also great and has everything you could want. Highly recommend!

Three things that we wanted to order were not available but we were not advised prior to looking at the menu. Swordfish was dried out, risotto undercooked, pork schnitzel over breaded and overcooked, hamburger not cooked as ordered and extremely overpriced for what we got!! Awful!

A bit understaffed but the food was high quality, portions were large, beer was fresh, drinks were expert made, and they were very accommodating for our kiddos. And the view is absolutely epic.

I hate posting negative reviews like this but management needs to take note, the wait times here are comical. They seemed severely understaffed and while I first felt bad that this must be a fluke once I saw other reviews I knew it was not.

The food was delicious, the service was extremely slow. They did not ask if we needed refills, or how our meals were until we were done eating.

the absolute WORST dinner experience I have ever had.
We made a reservation for our wedding anniversary in advance. We called days in advance and requested a window. We were seated in the back corner.
Next, we attempted to order a bottle of wine. They took 15 minutes to find the wine menu. When we selected a wine, 20 minutes later they told us they didn’t have it. We ordered another bottle. 15 minutes later they said they didn’t have it and brought up a bottle $100 more expensive as a “substitute”.
Finally, it took them over an hour to take our order. THEN over an hour to receive our order.
This is obscene. I will NEVER recommend this hotel or restaurant based on the level of service we have received.

Food was extremely overcooked, vegetables were mush, service staff was missing for extended periods of time (restaurant is very understaffed), atmosphere was very chaotic and nobody seemed to be managing or in charge. Very disappointing, two nights in a row.

We had the most amazing experience! Timothy worked so hard! He sat us, checked on us, walked my drink up to the spa all with a smile! Sasha greeted us daily with a beautiful smile and prompt attention. Madison and Emerson waited on us with attention to every detail! Such a warm friendly experience at Harvest tavern. Highly recommend!!

We had just checked into the hotel for a few days and decided to grab dinner in the Tavern dining room . The dining room overlooks the Presidential Mountain Range. It was beautiful. Our food was ok, our waitress was kind and helpful but the kitchen was severely understaffed. It took us over an hour before we got our meal. We were celebrating a birthday and decided to order a slice of cake for dessert. That took almost 30 minutes before it finally was served. When discussing the issue with the manager, it seems like staffing is an issue. In spite of this beautiful hotel, we won’t be dining here again.
Flies made my experience annoying. The staff were amazing and super sweet!! My salad was four pieces of big lettuce sections haha.

We were incredibly disappointed with their inability to accommodate food allergies. We spoke to the hotel team before booking to confirm they could offer gluten free food options for our 9 year old. When we arrived, we spoke to the restaurant manager to confirm GF options and made a reservation. When we returned for dinner, we were told there was no table available. When I reminded them that I had stopped by earlier and they told me they would have a table ready, they agreed to seat us but said it would take 40 minutes to get our meals. We could order apps. We placed our order. My daughter ordered the GF Mac and cheese that they had earlier offered us. After orders were placed, the manager returned to tell us that they were too busy for the chef to take cross contamination precautions - and they cannot make the GF mac and cheese. We ended up leaving with hungry kids and had to trouble shoot to find a safe dining option in town. Breakfast was included in our stay. We spoke to them in advance of breakfast and were again reassured they could make eggs and GF toast separately for our daughter to avoid risk of cross contamination from the buffet. When we arrived at breakfast, the server told us this was not an option. We had to escalate it - and the same manager from dinner returned with excuses. After a lot of stress, they made the eggs, home fries and gave toast. I wish they had just been honest that they are unable and unwilling to accommodate food allergies - rather than giving us false assurances and spoiling our stay with the stress of finding safe food for our daughter. There is a reason we call in advance and speak with management to prevent these issues. Their food and beverage manager was completely incompetent.

Really looking forward to our meal here but it was not worth the price tag. The wait was over an hour after placing the order for three salads, two soups and a few kids meals. It was inconsistent because one soup was hot, one cold, two children’s meals had fries that were completely different. The most disappointing was the hot maple glazed carrots - cold, raw peeled carrots with maple syrup and red pepper flakes for $10. Portions were too small and not tasty enough to justify the price tag.

The service by Sheridan was excellent! However the outside dining area was not clean. There was a rude group of guests who apparently brought their takeout food and ate at one of the outdoor tables then left all of the food and containers on the table and some on the ground. Not sure how long the 6-8 containers were left there but maintenance should have removed them. It was not pleasant looking at the containers while we had lunch. In addition, the kitchen was out of several ingredients for one of its salads on a holiday weekend. Further, there was one other couple in the dining room and it took the kitchen over an hour to deliver a salad and pizza. Other than the pleasure of having a great server it was a disappointing dining experience.

Special meal for my wife's birthday was a disappointment. Service was slow - even simple requests, such as small plates for our appetizer, took a ridiculously long time. There were more staff than diners, and it still took forever. The crab fritters were terrible, and the only reaction from our server was tacit acknowlegement. The steak frites was excellent, but the overall experience was negative. You would expect better service and food from a top-shelf hotel.
