With "exceptional service," a menu featuring delicious options like salmon with corn risotto, and a "lovely ambiance," it's a reliable choice.

    The food and service was fine, we chose this restaurant because we were going to a show and knew based on reviews it was average and it was definitely average. Dirty martinis were great, beet salad and lamb Bolognese solid, crab cake meh. Service was average at best. We did love the holiday decorations and our sever was super nice.

    Service was terrible for brunch, two of three meals were awful. It took 15 minutes for them to decide who our wire was and then another 15 minutes to get water. Cocktails were good but honestly, I wouldn’t go back.

    We enjoyed Glass House Tavern before a Saturday matinee of Stereophonic. The carmelized banana pumpkin pancakes and the House made Bagel with Salmon were outstanding.

    Wonderful place for dinner before our show. Seated timely for our reservation. Food was outstanding! Short ribs were amazing! Best choice on the menu. Salmon was good, with fantastic roasted corn couscous. Service was tremendous, kept our timing perfectly to get to theater. Highly recommended for preshow meal!

    During our trip to New York, we had the pleasure of dining at Glass House, and we can’t recommend it enough. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was impeccable, and the manager, Elie, went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. We initially struggled to secure a second reservation before a show, but Elie worked his magic and accommodated us at a wonderful table. His kindness and professionalism truly stood out, and we are so grateful for his efforts. Glass House is a gem, and thanks to Elie and his incredible team, it has become one of our favorite dining experiences.

    The main selling feature of the Glass House Tavern is its proximity to Broadway theaters. The food is acceptable. Service was not too bad, however, they were not very knowledgeable about the menu -- confusion or inability to answer questions about menu items. They seemed put out by us asking our water glasses to be replaced with new clean ones after they filled water into glasses on the table that had lipstick marks on them. For the price, better QC on table settings would be expected. Value for what you are getting -- NYC prices, theater district prices -- this place is not cheap! I have paid less at Michelin star restaurants for much higher quality food. That said, you have to kind of expect to pay a premium rate for the location.
