    The meal was sensational. Amazing how a pizza can be made to taste so good and not like one from the pizzeria on the corner. Apps are good, entrees are even better.

    My husband and I had a wonderful time dining here. The menu is eclectic and the food is flavorful and delicious. The service is equally top-notch and you get good value for your money, plus. As an added bonus, it is a bring your own establishment. It is rather noisy and when the dining room is full it can be a bit crowded but these are minor flaws in what turned out to be an excellent dining experience.

    What a lovely experience! The atmosphere was sophisticated and warm. Our server, Guillermo, couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. One of the mains wasn't as described. Guillermo told the manager who came to the table to apologize and removed the charge for it. Other than that dish, everything was delicious and served beautifully. We will definitely go again. Highly recommend The Hartley for an elevated dining experience.
