    We had been to Harvest in over a decade and decided it was time to go back. To be clear, everything was wonderful - EXCEPT where we were seated. The restaurant was not busy and we could have been seated in the main room- instead, they sat us next to one meeting room with 2 large parties and then us- a 2 top - husband / wife date night . It was SO loud we could not even talk to each other! Service was amazing and the food was delicious.
