Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Harlem

Brunch at the Glass House Tavern before yesterday’s matinee was great. Not crowded when we arrived at 11:45 but even when it was (by 12:30), the noise level was just fine. My Bloody Mary was delicious and my omelette was perfect. And no one rushed us out so we could linger over coffee. Really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back!!

Found this place on TikTok. Went for Valentine’s Day. Made reservations in December. Place was charming, lively and made to feel very, very elegant. We had a great time smoking our cigars and listening to the live music. 10/10 Experience, will be back again!

For Valentine’s Day, they called a week in advance to confirm the reservation and to notify me of the prix fixe menu only. We were a half hour late but they still honored our reservation, so huge thank you for that! The prix fixe menu has so many good choices it was tough to choose. It included a glass of champagne in the price. We got the lobster bisque (must have), crab cake, filet mignon, bone-in ribeye, chocolate mousse cake, and tiramisu. We couldn’t finish it all in one sitting but wish we could. Service was excellent; they were very frequently checking in with all tables. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone!

They provide a special menu for Valentine’s Day which is delicious and fairly priced. We love dining here anyway as the extensive regular menu is also inviting. We love the lobster, oysters Rockefeller and several pasta dishes we’ve had. The staff is wonderful. Alex and Jay are absolutely great. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Our favourite restaurant whenever we are in NY. Impeccable food, service and ambience. Refined rather than brash like so many other restaurants in NY. A total treat.
