Gramercy Tavern is now and has always been my favorite place. The food is great and the front-of-house team is just as good. I would eat there every day if I could.

Amazing food and service as always! It wouldn’t hurt to turn down the music just a smidge as it was hard to hear what the people I was with were saying. They could also make it slightly less dark as it was challenging to read the menu. Other than that, no notes! Love this place!
