Located Inside the Grayson Hotel. We love the abundance of small plates. We ordered several and shared them all. Very flavorsome; no complaints at all. The service was prompt, courteous and friendly. We had a very special time. Definitely a place which should be visited. read more

Short review This restaurant was recommended by my fiancé and was told that the food was amazing by multiple of his coworkers. After experiencing the restaurant, I can safely say that this is definitely a place to try. The ambiance and the food is great. Practically all the dishes my family tried were delicious, few better than others, but all felt like quality. Service was amazing as well and left the place very happy with the experience. Will definitely be coming back. Rating based on my personal preference/taste palate. Tasted most of the dishes. Charred eggplant spread: 5/5 - delicious bread and spread. Highly recommend getting Burrata 3/5 Falafel 5/5 Salt cod croquets 2/5 - too salty Lamb ribs 4/5 - meat was cooked well and delicious. Just a bit of difficulty with separating meat from bone. Black bass: 5/5 Black angus sirloin 5/5 Roasted oyster mushroom 5/5 (given by my dad and brother) Basque cheesecake 5/5 Chocolate almond torte 4/5 - more on the brownie side than cake. Tastes like dark chocolate. Was a kinda dry. Pistachio soft serve sundae 4/5 - more milky taste with hint of pistachio. Was expecting more pistachio flavor. But the toppings were delicious. Chocolate soft serve sundae 5/5 - taste like a dark chocolate ferrerro Virgin mojito 5/5- not on the menu but can request for no alcohol in drinks. Detailed review Location/occasion: Went to this restaurant with my family and fiancé for dinner at around 8PM on a Sunday night. Parking was not difficult to find on the street of the building/hotel (I don't know if we got lucky but my party came in 3 different cars and we all found street parking relatively close. Like a block away) The building is not easy to spot when driving down the street but you definitely know you are in the right place when you see the Greyson hotel entrance. The main dietary restriction we had in the group was for my father who is vegan. Inside the restaurant: The ambiance and decor is just as it looks in pictures and prettier in person (totally forgot to take pictures of the place). The place looks new and has ample seating for probably around 40-50 people at a time (I am including the bar seating as well). The seating, plating and utensils had a quality feel to them, no complaints what so ever. Service: We had a party of 6 and I know my family can be sort of complicated when it comes to ordering. However the server was very kind and went into detail when ever we had questions about the dishes. When we asked if a dish was vegan, she went to check with the chef to be sure and came back with telling us it was possible to make it vegan. We did have a lot of request but each time she didnt miss any of them. Also our waters were always refilled by another person and our dishes and utensils taken when we were done eating the current dish. read more

Great new addition to midtown's dining scene. Food was fantastic but weighed down by the lighting (way too bright in there, please dim the lights and make it into a more pleasant dining experience!) as well as the drinks (the cocktails were lackluster). In terms of the cocktails, we had ordered the "Lavender" and "Gyokuro" - neither seemed to taste like the stated ingredients and we actually had to reorder them. There was a wide variety of choices. Appetizers were not bad, but the entrees really shined. I especially enjoyed the chicken tagine, the rice was incredible. Dishes we got included the below, with rating for each: Labneh spread (4/5) Mediterranean salad (5/5) Badger flame beets (3/5) Salt cod croquettes (4/5) Lamb ribs (3/5) Roasted oyster mushroom (5/5) Yellowfin tuna (4/5) Chicken tagine (5/5) Pistachio sundae (5/5) Panna Cotta (2/5) I will definitely be coming back if the lighting scheme becomes a little bit more inviting and intimate. read more

Decently vegan friendly, though I wish that there was another option for a vegan main other than cauliflower. Cauliflower never deserved the moment it's getting. The mushrooms that it came with, however, were fabulous - they tasted like they just came off of a wood smoker! The broccolini side was also a highlight. In terms of apps, both the eggplant dip and white bean hummus were great, and the seeded ciabatta that came with them were a perfect complement. Slap some grilled tofu or a vegan pasta in the entree section, and I'll be back read more

Very nice space. We went late afternoon (4pm) on a weekend and it was not busy. Good service. We had the Chorizo & Potato Croquettes with romesco sauce. They came out nice and hot and were very tasty. I had the salmon and my husband had the roasted turkey sandwich. The waiter had ask for temp on the salmon which I specified medium. It came out well done but still with the caponata and pumpkin seed gremolata, it was very good. My husband said his turkey sandwich was great. He noted the fries were particularly good - perfectly cooked and hot which is really all you want for fries. We had Chocolate Almond Torte for dessert which was also good. It was alittle dense but tasted good. Overall, I wasn't expecting much since this place is in Midtown ( sorry, Midtown) but it was really good. I would definitely come back. read more

Delicious from start to finish!! Excellent cocktails and wine options. Try all the dips and the focaccia-each one is flavorful and distinct and once you start you can't stop! The Foie gras terrine is sooooo smoooothly dreamy. Leave room for dessert- the crostata with peach or pear has a perfectly light yet toothsome crust with a warming hint of ginger. Go go go! read more

We waited over an hour for our entrees after appetizers. We watched tables around us get both appetizers and entrees before us, even though some tables were seated after us. The waiter never came to check in on us, even for water. If we did not get their attention to inquire on the wait, they would have never said anything. As soon as we called the waiter over, that's when they want to interrupt with "it's coming, it's coming, sorry" No, you're not. And no, obviously it's not coming. Because it doesn't take an hour to make a sandwich and cook a steak medium rare. And since other tables got a variety of orders from the kitchen, it is also obviously not backed up. We left. Never coming back. I don't care how lovely the ambience was or how nice the drinks were. This is not cool on so many levels. I don't normally write bad reviews on anything, but that's how upsetting this is. read more

Food was ok. I had oyster mushroom with cauliflower. My rating is mostly based on service. It took a long time for server to attend to my table of one, in a non crowded setting. I watched her serve the 2 other tables who were seated before me, yet she did not greet nor acknowledge me as she walked past my table a few times, even looking away when we made brief eye contact. I was tempted to just get up and leave to search for another place to eat. The hostess who seated me noticed me sitting without water and I asked her to please send the server take my order. She also seemed suprised that I had been sitting for some time since she seated me at my table without so much as water. If I'm spending money to dine out, part of the experience is for the service, not just the meal. Like I mentioned it wasn't crowded, there were only two other tables seated, both of which had already put their food orders in before I was seated ( judging from when their food arrived). I don't know was she having an off day? Should I not take it personally? Regardless, it makes me pause to return with friends if service is typically like this. I also felt like the server was oblivious to her having ignored me for the such a long time before being reminded by the hostess that I was ready to order. No acknowledgment. Do better please. read more

My girlfriends and I went here for dinner last night and we loved it. The place was so cute, beautiful decor and perfect lighting. I was obsessed with my drink - got their passionfruit marg with mezcal (I wasn't in the mood for smokey). My friends got the lavender drink and the spritz from the cocktail menu - they liked it too. All the drinks were freshing and light. As for food we did a bunch of share plates - my favorite were the burrata, the dip and calamari. The caesar salad wasn't anything special. The patatas bravas had the perfect texture and flavor profile but a little more sauce would have made it perfect. The staff was super attentive and nice. I'd def go back again, had a great time! read more

Beautiful hotel restaurant. Really enjoyed our food selections; we had KALE CAESAR SALAD, wonderful SALT COD CROQUETTES, unique and tasty CHICKEN TAGINE, and a traditional hamburger with well prepared fries. Looking forward to trying the rest of their selections. Their wine by the bottle and glass are high priced (it is a hotel too), but excellent. Not much to say about the service, got a newbie who was struggling, but did appreciate that they noticed and changed the person for another, they cared. read more

Hidden little gem in midtown. We met here for drinks on the rooftop and then dinner one floor down. This looks like a good place to have large group events, there is a decent amount of space. The Branzino was great, even though the skin wasn't quite crispy. The sauce made the dish though, some sort of magical concoction beyond my culinary knowledge really makes this flavor three dimensional and gives it some zing. I recommend this dish. The broccolini was also good, with a hint of sweetness from the raisins and sauce. Nothing is boring. They humored me with a custom sundae, (thank you!). The ambiance is nice, even though you do feel like you're sitting in the lobby of a hotel if you sit toward the front. We came early and it was empty enough to have private conversation, and it filled up as we ate but never got too noisy. read more

I believe this is a rather new spot that opened up. Interior has very great modern and classy ambiance. Good for group dinner and/or date. Food was all decent as well. I wish they came out more hot but everything tasted good! Service was attentive as well. read more

I would give 4.5 stars! I went for restaurant week and it was a great deal for $45-50. The black bass was fresh and light and the steak had very a flavorful crust. My favorite was the burrata, with the bright vegetables. The interior was also very beautiful read more

Nice to have a good Mediterranean option near Bryant Park. Restaurant was not crowded (still undiscovered?) and it sits on one side of a hotel lobby. But it's not a busy lobby so it's not noisy. It's quite classy. We tasted two spreads--romesco (sweet roasted red pepper with almonds and a heavy hint of saffron) and the eggplant (like babaganoush but lighter, with mint on top) served with delicious seeded focaccia bread. We shared the wild mushroom risotto which was properly cooked, creamy and cheesy and earthy from the mushrooms. Friends devoured the shrimp. They looked amazing! Good selection of wines by the glass and the service was excellent. read more

I went there for dinner with a friend last week. Overall the drinks and food were not impressed at all or like good. It's totally not worth the price. The worst part I had stomach issues after dinner... it was really bad... I needed to run to the bathroom few times. So next day I called the restaurant and the person transferred me to F&B department and I left voicemail about issue I had. But nobody respond until today!!! It's over a week! So disappointed with this place!!! read more

The ambiance, food and service are great! This is a great spot for after work dinner with the girls read more

Decided to do a Sunday brunch at Harta. The restaurant is inside the Grayson Hotel. The restaurant is extremely cute. The food and coffee were delicious as well. The restaurant is a block over from Bryant Park. Service is extremely slow though even with the staff being super nice. Took us over 20 mins to get seated when we made a reservation. Our waitress was slow as well and went missing a few times to the point other waiters/waitresses noticed and had to ask us if we were okay and brought us our check. read more

Great service and food. Started with 2 salads. Both were great. I had the chicken which was superb and Chuck had the tuna. Dessert was fantastic. read more

The ambiance is lovely - it's gorgeous, well appointed, and spacious inside, and you can hear yourself think, at least on a weeknight! I was staying in the attached Grayson Hotel and had less than 45 minutes before I had to take a zoom meeting back up in my room. The host served me immediately and in a pretty, spacious corner of the banquette, even though I was solo. She sent the server over who also heard my urgency and was attentive to it. But the food I ordered was really underwhelming for the quality and care that appeared to go into it - the tuna crudo was missing something - some brightness perhaps - that would have made it more than high grade tuna and slices of beet. The labneh was tzatsiki - maybe that's my own misunderstanding, but I thought labneh was typically thicker and perhaps saltier. This was somewhat watery but would have been above average if billed as tzatziki! And worst, and such a bummer, the falafel was flavorless - bland, under salted, and lacking much taste at all. You could get better from a store bought, frozen variety. I hate when great service is lost on mediocre food, and I don't enjoy complaining about it but don't want others to be disappointed too. 3 stars = an attempt to average 2 for food, 4 for service, 4 for ambiance. read more

Our play ran long and we missed our dinner reservation so walked around and into Harta. They could not have been nicer or more engaging. Jai greeted us asking if we were visiting from out of town. Jai made certain our dinner was special which was much appreciated as it was my wife's birthday . The dinner was fantastic. As it turns out we're fortunate how plans changed. Thanks Jai and Harta! read more

Our waiter, Jay, was absolutely outstanding. Our daughter was graduating from college and he went out of his way to fete her (excellent service, professional warm manner and even bought over a complimentary piece of chocolate brownie/cake as a congratulations dessert. Food and drinks were outstanding, but our wait staff (Jay) was excellent. Highly recommend! read more

The service and food were amazing! The staff is wonderful and kind. We couldn't be more appreciative of their kindness!!

We had a great dinner for 6 on a cold Saturday night in the city. The ambiance was upscale, quiet, and relaxing. The waitstaff was very accommodating and friendly, even though we were fairly late for our reservation. The food was excellent and everyone enjoyed their meals. I felt like the portions were large! Our server had a good sense of humor, even though several of us requested modifications to our meals. I would come back here again! read more

Had a really great experience here, the service was great and the food was excellent. We started with the Mediterranean salad and Tuna Crudo. For entrees we tried the Chicken Tagine and Brodetto, both were delicious and I would highly recommend. We also had the lamb ribs which were tasty but a little too fatty for our liking. We finished the meal with Chocolate Almond Torte with Chantilly whipped cream - really yummy. The restaurant also has a nice ambiance with a floral mural, wood finishes and green and blue accents. read more

We had a large party (8) and they were able to accommodate us. That was great. The ambiance was nice and the music was low enough to have a conversation. Our drinks were tasty and (of course) expensive but not shocking for the area. I felt the menu was limited and we were not impressed with the flavor for the price. I think food-wise dessert was our favorite. I would come back for happy hour or a chill drinks + dessert bestie gab session. read more

We found Harta accidentally on a mother daughter outing from Brooklyn. All the famous places were booked on Friday night. It was a leap of faith to try a new restaurant. We are glad we did. My 11 year old daughter said this place is a hidden gem indeed. We had the lamb ribs and the chicken targine. Both dish were delicious. Alysia who served us tonight was so nice and we chatted about Greece. It really brought back our fond memory on all the great Mediterranean food we had! I would highly recommend Harta to anyone! read more

Service was disappointing. Stood in a line waiting for a hostess to address our party and the two parties ahead of us in line for 30 minutes. Everyone in line had reservations but no one even came over. When we finally sat down 30 minutes after our reservation, no one came to the table and we watched another table try to find a waitress to get their check. We got up and left read more

Had a wonderful dinner there last Friday. Beautiful soothing gold decor and lighting with high ceilings. Outdoor dining, as well as, bar dining. Restaurant is located in Grayson Hotel so if you don't want to see hotel guests coming & going, you can sit in more private part of dining room but we liked people watching. Service was excellent although it was a surprisingly quiet evening. Restaurant week 3-course menu - offered choices from regular menu which was better than the limited menus from most other participating restaurants. Food was very very good - fried calamari, tuna crudo, Angus steak and shrimp scampi. A hidden gem which shouldn't be so hidden. read more

Three of us went there on a Sunday and we were the only customers. The drinks were okay and the food was average. Beautiful place though. The service was good. They added automatic gratuity on our check, could not tell if that's their system but it works for me, others may not like it. A fairly new place so I guess they have a lot to improve. read more

I came her for a business/catch up dinner and it was lovely. I was late to the party but the host directed me to where my table was. The ambiance was fantastic and felt elegant and cozy. The food was A+ and we all couldn't get enough. We got seconds of the croquettes. If the table didn't threaten to vote me off the island for wanting the octopus I would have ordered it! Didn't nab any pics bc it's awkward to take during a business dinner but it was delicious looking! read more

Terrible. Had to send food back because it was burned. Service was almost non-existent and they have the audacity to include a 20% service charge. Avoid this place read more

Terrible, clearly not fresh breakfast. Croissant was soggy and seems to have been microwaved. Avocado toast had old brownish avocado on it that was spread very thin. Even the plain brewed coffee was very acidic and somehow also flavorless. Don't bother. read more

I dined here for restaurant week with my cousin. The server was very sweet and kind. The calamari had good flavor, but it was so tiny it was almost mostly bread crumbs. The meat balls with goat cheese were tasty. We then had the Angus steak and the brazzino. The fish was absolutely delicious ! The green salsa on the filet was to die for! For dessert we had the chocolate ice cream and the cheese cake. The cheese cake was creamy but tasted a little burned. The ice cream was good just wish they put something on it. read more

I went here tonight for dinner with colleagues. The decor is nice - the servers were attentive. The food was excellent. I would give it 4 1/2 stars (kinks of a new places) but I rounded up to five, because the teamwork of the staff was admirable. We had a tuna Crudo, the kale caesar - both were excellent. I highly recommend for a business dinner if you're in the area. We were able to have a productive conversation and an enjoyable meal - complimented by excellent service. read more

I loved everything about bar harta from the food to the service to the ambiance, everything was top tier. The staff were super nice and constantly checked in to make sure we were good! I even gave the bartender a hard task of surprising me with a drink and gave one requirement: mint, and he delivered! And don't get me started on the food, the chorizo croquettes are an ABSOLUTE MUST. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Food was okay. Service was sparse. In the lobby of hotel. Pretty sparse when i went for lunch. Recommend - beets. Octopus, tuna and chicken entree were okay but nothing special read more

Really disappointed in the burger. Could use some sauce or something. The ambiance is nice but the food could use some work!

We just stayed at the Grayson last night and had drinks and appetizers last night and breakfast this morning. The service was amazing, Dwayne was very attentive and the service was great. My husband had the wings and said they were the best wings ever. I had the Caesar salad which was phenomenal. Javon the manager made sure that we were happy with our orders. We returned for breakfast and were seated immediately. I had the French toast which was awesome and my husband had the breakfast sandwich which he thoroughly enjoyed. Our food was served quickly and was hot. Javon was back making sure things were running smoothly. Overall we had 2 delicious meals and will definitely return. read more
