- JJanetGoldNew York City •57 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoFirst time there. Our server Edina was outstanding. She recommended that my husband and I split one of the larger steaks, which was perfect w/ 3 sides and bread. The complementary pavlova for my birthday celebration was a classy touch. Looking forward to a return visit.More infoHawksmoor NYC$$$$• American• Gramercy Park•4.5
- LLaurenSeattle / Eastern Washington •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoWe came in with high expectations and were completely blown away. The seasonal fall menu items were absolutely delicious- the squash starter was our favorite and felt both unique and approachable. Not ordering the burger felt like cutting against the grain- as every other table had one, and they did look insanely delicious- but the ricotta cavatelli with sungolds knocked our socks off. For dessert we stayed on theme and tried the squash sundae- wow! All the flavors of fall and so refreshing. What stood out the most was the service and hospitality. Our server Matthew made our night- he really helped the evening feel like a special celebration. We look forward to Gramercy Tavern being apart of future celebrations.

- AAlexGoldNew York City •1 review5.0Dined on 16 Oct 2026Food was light and flavorful, which is what we were looking for. Portion sizes are not massive, but perfect for one serving. Management was so nice and gave us a dessert on the house to celebrate our engagement — a rarity in NYC these days!
