Our Inspector's Highlights
- At Gramercy Tavern, everything on the menu is in a class by itself. If you are eating in the main dining room, prepare your palate for a delectable three-course prix fixe meal with a range of options.
- While there are plenty of dishes our waitress was eager to recommend, she couldn’t help but rave about executive chef Michael Anthony’s impressive commitment to the use of local produce in determining the dishes he puts on the menu.
- The service at Gramercy Tavern is in a class all its own. Upon arrival, you’ll be properly greeted and kept informed on the status of your reservation and notified exactly when the table would be ready. Once seated, expect a waitress who’s not only patient, but also impressively knowledgeable.
Things to Know
- Though natural light comes into the Tavern during the day through the large windows, at night, the restaurant relies on recessed lighting to softly illuminate the restaurant and set the mood.
- Reservations can be tough to come by this New York classic but you should call 212-477-0777 or make a reservation on the restaurant’s website. Gramercy Tavern welcomes reservations at 10 a.m., seven days a week, up to 28 days in advance.
- The private dining room can comfortably seat 22 people, but room can be made for a maximum of 25 people. There is a single, stately leaflet table in the center of the room, crafted by Maine artisan Greg Lipton. The table can be expanded to accommodate a range of party sizes.
