    I have enjoyed Harvest in the past but last night was an exception. We were seated near the noisy kitchen at a table where the lights were out/ not functioning. I ordered a glass of wine which was not poured at the table and it was a fair bit warmer than room temperature. They did offer me another glass. The ribeye steak was a cooked rare as we asked but very fatty - about 1/3 of a 16 oz steak was fat. I like a well-marveled steak but this was excessive. All in all - not the best experience and I’m not sure I will return.

    Food was great, ambience was good, service was pretty terrible. Our waiter was the worst - couples who came 20 minutes after us were served. He tried to make up for it by being constantly apologetic - but was late in each and every item he served us

    This afternoon we had the absolute pleasure to have Alex G as our server at Harvest. From the moment she introduced herself to us until we left the restaurant, she was attentive, genuine, and always had a smile on her face. One of the people in our party has a gluten allergy and the chef has apparently been trying out some new gluten free rolls, so Alex made sure to bring us a couple of miniature rolls to try (the rolls were fluffy and not at all gritty like many gluten free bread products have a tendency to be). We ordered a cinnamon bun to go (a must try item at Harvest!) and she gave it to us with reheating instructions handwritten on the top of the box. All of our food was spectacular- we had eggs benedict, french toast, and the best impossible burger in the Boston area. This was our first time at Harvest but Alex made us feel like regulars. We are already looking forward to returning.

    Still the perfect spot for a celebratory dinner - we were celebrating a friends' wedding anniversary - the restaurant was great about special requested touches such as menus without prices, decorative writing on the dessert plates, etc. The food was varied, fresh and delicious as always and we sat outside on the beautiful patio with a roaring fire behind us. A truly special and memorable evening.

    3? 4? Different waiters, none experienced, though the last one was very friendly and tried hard. Some was very poorly cooked, other not fresh. Not good. (And patio renovations of a number of years ago, destructive of original beautiful patio, only get worse with age.)

    We're new to the area and happened to walk by Harvest, so I took a chance and made a reservation for a date night. I'm so happy, we went: excellent food (we had the stuffed squash, fresh oysters, rack of lamb, and duck bacon pasta), and the service and ambiance were perfect for a date night and a nice meal with friends.

    Sadly both the menu options and food quality were disappointing. Harvest came up in a search for vegan. When we asked the server about options, he said “Not much, that’s a tough one”. The “special order” plain pasta with vegetables arrived bland with little sauce. The vegetable tarte was cold in the middle like it needed more reheating time and the overworked crust was so stiff it was hard to cut. The grilled zucchini was cooked well, but the handful of pistachios sprinkled on top were whole and difficult to eat, the addition presented like an thought. On the tomato salad, we asked to substitute legumes in place of cheese. The salad showed up with no cheese, but no legumes. When asked if they had anything, they offered lentils. They arrived 15 min later. By then, the salad was gone. My fault for not looking past the name to vet the menu more closely. Not a very bountiful Harvest for my guests.

    It would have been lovely to have a little bit more "real" vegetables to accompany the bass and not only carrots and pickled (?) onions. Probably some more mashed potatoes would also have been appreciated. But the fish was very good.

    Our meal was not good and we've been several times when it was good over many years! It was a special occasion and the 4 of us were disappointed. My husband took one look at his wilted salad and sent it back. We had three of those salads, all with less than fresh lettuce. My son and I ate ours. This isn't the first time salads at Harvest have been bad! I sent one back awhile ago. It's sort of insulting to put that on a plate and serve. I had salmon, the fish was cooked well (but the server didn't ask me how I liked salmon, luckily I like it cooked through because that's how it came) but the rest of the items on the plate had no flavor and were not warm. The cheese plate looked like a mess as if it were thrown together and the raspberries didn't seem like they had been washed. The cheeses (3) were sloppily cut and there were not many crackers. My two sons had steaks. My husband had the burger and seemed happy with that. I continue to think of the Harvest as a special place, but last night's meal was minimally acceptable and I'm not a foodie. Where is the quality control? My husband's salad was replaced with fresh looking lettuce. Isn't that the way all of the salads should have been?

    This is our favorite restaurant in New England and it never fails to live up to that standard. The food is delicious, innovatively prepared, and fresh. The serving sizes are totally appropriate - not huge but more than enough for such elegant and complex flavors and presentations. The stone fruit cheesecake is the best dessert I've enjoyed in memory. The service, ambiance, and location are top notch. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

    The patio was dirty, outdated, the floor was messy, cushions were musty and stained. The ambiance almost made me want to leave, completely lifeless.

    Harvest is a Cambridge institution we really want to love. So we keep going back, expecting more. The ambiance is lovely, but the food often falls disappointingly short of “wow!” It’s good but not spectacular, and for the high end pricing and promising atmosphere you’d expect Harvest to deliver more.

    Harvest was a great experience for myself and my girlfriend celebrating our anniversary. I included that in our reservation we were coming for our anniversary and they congratulated us upon arrival and our waiter was eager to ask us about it and congratulate us as well. The food was delicious. Stuff I thought I’d never like tasted delightful and the portions were not small by any measure. We had the stonefruit carpaccio which was tremendous. Overall we had a fantastic experience and would recommend this place highly to anyone looking for a fancy dinner date.

    Celebrated a birthday dinner with a larger group. The food was delicious, but unfortunately the restaurant was having trouble in the kitchen and our entrees were VERY delayed in arriving. The waiter did his very best to keep us informed about the problems with what he said was a new menu and a backup in the kitchen. Two managers stopped by our table to apologize for the delay, but each time we were promised the food was almost out, we were left to wait again. They were very generous in comping us a variety of desserts at the end of the meal.

    Hi there, Thank you very much for your feed back. I would like to apologize again for the delay in delivering your food. A delay in food is not the norm for us and I do hope you will give us another try soon. We work very hard to serve food in a timely fashion and we obviously dropped the ball with your group. I am happy to hear you all enjoyed the desserts we sent out and we hope to see you again. Best, Mike

    Terrible service. Stale lobster roll. Actually the lobster roll tasted like sewage. I spit it out immediately. The servers and manager did not seem surprised when I brought it to their attention. Harvest seems to be going downhill & fast!

    HarvestResponded on August 14, 2023

    Hi Diana, Thank you very much for your feed back. I am sorry to hear you did not enjoy your lobster roll and you did not feel it was up to our usual high standards of quality food. I know that our assistant general manager visited your table and was able to compensate you for the lobster roll and a few other items from your visit. If you would like to discuss your experience further I can be reached at mbainton@harvestcambridge or at the number below. Best, Mike 617-868-2255

    The kitchen works magic with seafood. Scallop ceviche combined sweet, succulent scallops with full-flavored slices of fresh avocado. Seared salmon was perfectly moist and served with creamy nettle greens and wild mushrooms. Lobster succotash spaghetti was as colorful as it was delicious. Portions are generous. The J. Lassalle "Préference" Champagne is rich with flavor and complements the dishes we chose perfectly.

    Unfortunately we didn’t have a great experience. Went for lunch on a weekday, took nearly two hours. Service was slow and we were never asked if we wanted a new drink or fresh water. Food was fine. Nothing more than that. We were apologized to twice for the slowness. Wouldn’t have minded as much if it weren’t a work day and needed to get back. Wouldn’t rush back unfortunately.
