Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Upper West Side

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!

Everything was amazing. My only critique would be the garlic mash. Had a heavy garlic flavor. My girlfriend loved it. Different taste buds for sure. Service was immaculate. Sirloin was cooked to perfection. The burger exploded with flavor upon first bite. Drinks had beautiful heavy pours and taste. Pricing was also better then expected for the quality of everything, including ambiance. Quiet place, had live music night I went, included singer and sax player. Would 10000% be back. No hesitation!

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.
