    The Classic Burger with fries
    Josh R.

    We came here for a work lunch on a weekday. I ordered The Classic burger with fries. It tasted fine, but it wasn't life changing or anything. If you go, I recommend coming for drinks and getting food somewhere else.

    Chicken pot pie
    Lynn D.

    This is a really cute traditional Irish pub right around the corner from Residence Inn where we are staying. A lot of locals which made it more fun and service was really good. Shared shepherds pie, chicken pot pie and a French onion soup. Soup was not my favorite, shepherds pie was good but the standout was the chicken pie. Creamy filling full of chicken and veggies with a flaky puffed crust-delicious!

    Jameson on the rocks

    You won't find a better Irish pub in Manhattan. Every time I've made it here I order the BLT, because it's so good. Need to try the other things on the menu. Ya, they know how to pour a Jameson.

    Fish (cod) & Chips

    Met my friend for a stroll through Midtown today. We came upon by chance as we were searching for a spot to sit & eat. We both had fish & chips. The waiter was nice, my Irish Mule was refreshing. I would return.

    Me and my coworkers "goto" spot for Friday night happy hour. Our routine is usually to grab a table with no wait time, order within 2 minutes of sitting down and keep ordering baskets of fries and beers throughout the night. What makes Gabby's the best Irish pub in the neighborhood is in my opinion its affordability. Beers are very cheap around happy hour and beat the prices of other pubs just a few blocks in either direction. Additionally the beer selection is quite good and our group likes to buy "harp" and "irish red" here a lot. They aren't anywhere else we know of, are tasty... And they make you feel Irish drinking them. Foodwise we usually just get appetizers. They give you a lot of fries per basket which is great.. Though if we could make one minor criticism it's that the salt level per order can be inconsistent. Their main entrees have been good too and I have stopped over sometimes here to grab a cheap burger. I don't think we, nor I, have ever come here with a wait time. Even when it feels crowded in the front there is always tables available in the back. It is something we just expect from O'harras at this point. There's not much more that's needed to be said about this place. It has great beers, is affordable and is easy to get into. Honestly that's all you need to be for greatness in midtown Manhattan.

    French Onion Soup
    Kristin C.

    This place is a go-to lunch spot for myself and my coworkers whenever they're looking to grab a beer as well. It's a place with great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a diverse crowd of people that come in-- whether they be tourists, business people, etc. One thing that is extremely underrated at this establishment is the food. I haven't had too many French Onion soups in my life, but this one is the best I've had so far. At $5 a cup, it's a go-to order for me on cold winter days. Also, the wings are the crispiest, freshest I've had in a long time. They bring them out as soon as they're done cooking so you'll need to give them a minute to cool down before devouring them... I always burn my mouth on the first one because yes, THEY ARE WORTH IT. I also like how they give you the buffalo sauce on the side so you can decide if you want to completely smother them in it, or just lightly coat them. That's always a crowd favorite. Shepard's Pie is also a notable dish! Portions are quite large here, but with the quality tasting so good-- you'll want to just eat it all up regardless!

    Location-wise, it was still in the midtown area, convenient to Times Square, Bryant Park, and our hotel on W 36th.

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with champagne, which immediately set the tone for a special evening. Our server, Daniel, was beyond amazing. He was warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our anniversary meaningful. It never felt forced just thoughtful, polished hospitality. The team went above and beyond when we brought our wedding cake (which had been frozen for a year). Not only did they accommodate it without hesitation, they helped decorate and present it beautifully you would have thought it had been baked that same day. It was such a touching moment for us, and they handled it with care and enthusiasm. As for the food: incredible. The steak tartare was perfectly balanced and beautifully prepared. The tuna was fresh and vibrant. And the Beef Wellington... honestly one of the best I've had in New York City. Perfectly cooked, rich, elegant, and absolutely worthy of a celebration dinner. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance: romantic, warm, refined but relaxed. It felt special without being stiff. If you're looking for a place to celebrate something meaningful, this is it. We will absolutely return.

The scallops were delicious and the not colada cocktail but at that price point to not being given my food and proper service is a shame.The fish was OK and the sticky toffee was delicious.

Always a solid choice, though it could have been a bit colder. The bartenders were very nice and attentive, and the place clearly has a strong group of regulars.

They were very accommodating, and the drink turned out delicious. Rich, smooth, and good enough that I ordered a second.

Unfortunately, our server only heard that 5 of us wanted afternoon tea, and one of the tiers of food was smaller than the others. We also had to pay extra for additional tea, which we were fine with, but service was severely lacking throughout. Our server didn't check up on us, and seemed to want us to leave quickly after dropping off the check. We would have been happy to pay the $65 each for afternoon tea, but it wasn't worth it and frankly, I was agitated by the whole ordeal by the time I left. We were also disappointed by the food items (as they were lacking) and nothing about this was like other experiences we had with other afternoon teas. I can't in good faith recommend this place, nor do I see myself coming back after the atrocious service we experienced.
