My wife and I had a great dining experience at The Glass House Tavern. The restaurant itself has a much classier ambience and vibe than the word “tavern” might suggest. Our server, Eduardo, was very nice and attentive…and the food was delicious. My wife had the roast chicken and I had the short rib, and both were cooked to perfection. We sat in the upstairs section, where some of the tables are a bit close together, but it is NYC after all. All in all, we would definitely go back to The Glass House Tavern.

Our party of 7 (including 2 children/1 toddler) had an excellent meal yesterday. Every dish ordered was cooked perfectly and as requested, served at the proper temperature, utilizing the highest quality of ingredients, was visually appealing, and tasted great! All of the team worked in unison and made for a stellar dining experience.

Amazing holiday classic! The decor is just amazing- beautifully decorated for the holidays. The food was equally amazing. We had the tomahawk steak special with three included sides. The steak was delicious and perfectly cooked. The lobster Mac and cheese and vegetables were delicious and the presentation was worthy of photos which didn’t do it justice. The service was friendly but efficient. We will be back.

We sat in the window on the first floor. The wait staff was very accommodating as we had 2 babies in our party of 7. The server was very polite and took our order slowly as we were ready one course at a time. The food was fantastic, and the drinks were poured generously. Everything was cooked correctly, and everyone enjoyed their meal.
