    This was our first time visiting and we did a horse drawn carriage ride through Central Park before our reservation since Tavern on the Green is just on the edge of the park. It was beautifully decorated for the holidays and stunningly gorgeous inside- even better than I’d imagined. The food was delicious and service was very attentive. I really could not have asked for a more perfect dinner experience for myself and my family! Thank you Tavern of the Green for such a great dining experience!

    Wonderful lunch all around! A great table by the window overlooking Central Park. Our waiter was perfect - interesting and attentive but not intrusive. The food was delicious - squash soup, arancini with white truffles, the cauliflower steak, little gem salad with chicken, and an incredible hazelnut mousse. Just a perfect lunch.

    This is a wonderfully authentic Greek restaurant, walking distance from the Met. Pricy but the $39 prix fixe is absolutely terrific. Light and airy. Great, attentive service.
