Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

The Harold is a delightful dining spot in NYC, perfect for brunch or pre-show meals. Guests rave about "amazing bacon" and "fantastic service." The ambiance is cozy, with views of Greeley Park. While it's bustling and sometimes noisy, its convenient location and delicious American staples make it a "reliable choice."

Everything was adequate nothing really stood out. Got eggs Benedict which was decent but the potatoes that came with it were kind of soggy. Also had shakshuka which was yummy but there wasn't enough bread for the amount of tomato sauce it came with. We asked for extra bread and it cost an extra $2. It took a long time to come out and when we finally received the bread it was too crispy to eat. For the price everything cost, I would've come back to this place.

The perfect brunch place. Amazing from the time you walk in and are greeted by the hostess, to the waitstaff and then the fabulous food. If you are in NYC, a stop at the Harold is a must.

Food was delicious, they have added new items to their menu. Breakfast items are available all day now. The service was extremely slow, and the server seemed disinterested doing her job.

Picked the Harold for a business lunch. Ticked all the bases. Quiet environment, decent portions and efficient service without a hefty price tag.

Nice place, good value for money, food was really tasty and staff friendly. Did not love the cocktails. But may be a question of taste.
