   Excellent service and food. The restaurant is an institution! It’s been in business over 40 years. Decor is lovely. It was my bday and was happy to go to harvest to celebrate. The prices are steep so it’s not a weekly destination in my opinion but a good choice if you want to celebrate an occasion.

    We got seated at a table in a corner right by the open kitchen, with raw food smells wafting our way. Kitchens are noisy too so didn’t help with the whole experience. At the end, the receipt noted we could get a discount for writing a Yelp review, which we did and the server never came back to reprocess the bill like they said they would - we waited for 20 mins and waved several times, it’s like they were purposely ignoring to avoid giving the discount. Not worth all the hype.

    Harvest is always the place my friends and I stop at for brunch when we come to Boston from NYC to see a production at A.R.T. as the restaurant is so convenient to the theatre. But location is certainly not the reason for our continual return. The food is always wonderful and the service impeccable without being overly solicitous. On this particular trip, transportation was such that we arrived well in advance of our reservation time and, although the place was obviously filled, the hostess happily accommodated us.

    HarvestResponded on January 15, 2023Hi there, Thank you very much for your compliments and continued support. I did a little research and found that your server was Elizabeth. I will be sure to share your note with her. Elizabeth does a great job and we are lucky to have her on our team. we look forward to seeing you on your next trip to Boston!! Best, Mike

    Love this little restaurant in Cambridge. Nice atmosphere and great wait staff. It might sound like a silly thing to like, but I love that they have cloth napkins and the food is served on warm plates and the coffee is fesh and hot. The only complaint I have is that I wish they offered a little more on the brunch menu. I will definitely go again.

    My guest and I sat outside on the patio. There are heaters and a fireplace outside so it is comfortable. The occasion was a celebration of a new job and birthday for my guest. The Harvest proved to be the right destination restaurant. I used to dine here often when I worked at Harvard. We dined during lunch and had cocktails and desert as well. I had the eggs and prosciutto on sourdough bread. It was served with a generous side of perfectly cooked French fries. My guest is a vegetarian and there were great entrees for him as well. The wait person, Peter was so genial and wonderful, that we would like to return again and to ask for him. He seemed to have perfect timing when he served us and he was so personable and interesting to listen to. This was a memorable dining experience for both my guest and I.

    Some of the best food we've had in the Boston area. Not the cheapest, even compared with other fine restaurants, but the food was really exceptional. To paraphrase JP Morgan, if you have to ask what it costs, you can't afford it. The atmosphere is cozy, but not spacious; the interior is divided up into smaller spaces rather than one large elegant dining hall, which is good for privacy, if it's privacy you seek.

    I’ve been to Harvest several times and usually it’s excellent. This visit was slightly substandard, perhaps because it was just after the New Year’s, and they may have been understaffed or without the resources they needed. I was a bit disappointed. The place is rather pricey, but usually it’s so good it’s worth it. I will go back, but I hope it’s much better next time.

    New Year's Eve dinner. Three course Prix Fixe Dinner. Appetizers, entrees, and desserts to choose from. Also, an amuse bouche. Wine pairing is extra. The food was excellent. Each course we had was well prepared and presented and tasty. The wine pairing was nice. The server was personable but we felt we were his test case. The appetizers came first. No amuse bouche until we asked for it. With one appetizer, a salad, we were promised oil and balsamic vinegar on the side. The salad arrived without the oil and vinegar; we had to ask for it. There was a choice of four desserts. We each ordered the same dessert. Two different desserts were served; neither the one we ordered. We explained that they were not what we ordered, and we explained what we ordered. Again, two other incorrect desserts were served. It took them four tries to get us the right desserts. For the wine pairing, champagne was to be served with the amuse bouche. No champagne. The wine paired with the appetizer was not served with the appetizer; I had to request it. At the time of dessert, the server said he forgot the champagne and asked if I wanted it. I said no, too late as I had the dessert wine. I was thinking I should be compensated for no champagne (maybe a 25% deduction from the wine pairing price because I missed one of the four wines), but the bill included the entire price of the wine pairing. Overall, we enjoyed dinner, but the service flaws made it less than ideal. In our many times in this restaurant, including on some other New Year's Eves, this was the first service problem, so I think this is an anomaly. We will return.
