About this business
Since 1975, this Harvard Square establishment has been considered a pioneer of modern American cuisine. Artwork on the walls depicts the harvest scenes from which the restaurant takes its name. The rich red maple floors and the creamy yellow walls also bring the harvest season to mind. From the lunch menu, be sure to try the harvest burger with house fries or the open-faced grilled ahi burger. Exceptional dinner entrees include chilled lobster with eggplant and the roasted rack of veal with pineapple sage sauce. The restaura... read more

Fun Place - Great Outdoor Dining – Harvest is consistently good. The outdoor dining is beautiful. The food is well presented. The service is terrific.
Fantastic Elegant Luncheon with Work Staff – We had made a reservation a few days ago (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) for 13 of us from work. Our table was waiting for us and the drink order was taken pretty quickly. With the large party we had they brought over two servers to take our orders and everything came out fantastic! On this very cold day, even sitting near the window, it was extremely cozy. Most comments I received from my group was wow what a presentation and the portions. A+++++ In our book
simply great – Very simply, delicious food and attentive wait staff. We went during restaurant week so it was very busy and had a more electic crowd than usual... but it definitely didn't disappoint.
Worst Restaurant Service I have ever experienced. – My wife and I were seated at Harvest Restaurant at 7PM as per our reservation on a Saturday night through Open Table. We were there with a gift card from our daughter for our 35th wedding anniversary. We got up to leave after 20 minutes when no waiter had yet come to the table. The room was half full at best and a ll other staff avoided eye contact. The hostess reacted by saying, "What do we have to do to have you dine with us". Not looking to negotiate, but just looking fo... read more
stay away during restaurant week – I was looking forward to dinner as we have enjoyed restaurant week meals at many the local restaurants. This was the worst ever. Under-ripe tasteless heirloom tomatoes, the toughest pork loin chop I have tasted (probably due to keeping it on a steam table), mashed potatoes that could not have been made that day since they tasted like a refrigerator, mushy tasteless veggies served with a passable swordfish and unremarkable desserts - what was that jelly stuff under the sorbet?. We even compl... read more
Cambridge's Best Upscale Restaurant and Bar – I don't live in Cambridge but when I'm in Harvard Square area 2-3 times a month I frequent Harvest for its very comfortable atmosphere, warm bar, outside garden dining in the summer. It has a modern New England feel with great fish, game, hamburgers, salads, and nice wine list. The bar is great if you are sitting alone. The restaurant is off the main street found in large walkway /alley. The service staff and management is very nice and professional. It's great place for a casual... read more
Be prepared to wait... but it's worth it! – My boyfriend and I went on a whim (without reservations) and had the longest wait to be seated (approx. 1 hour!). But it was definitely worth it. We were made to wait in the bar area which was too small to hold the patrons that were there to drink and eat (never mind the people waiting to be seated). We had to do all we could to avoid having our drinks spilled all over us from the constant flow of people in and out of the bar and the bathroom which was on the other side of the bar.... read more
Don't waste your money – This a horrible restaurant. We went for Restaurant Week and learned after we had been seated that they did not offer the special prix fixe deal on Saturday nights. This, I pointed out, was not clearly indicated on their publicity for the event and that, in fact, the material I had (and showed them) was down right misleading. The hostess who came to my table was patronizing and not only did not offer satisfaction did nothing to even attempt to make us feel that we were anything other than dopes. I gue... read more
bad service, bad food – This place is so highly ranked, so I thought I'd try it. The cheese plate wasn't good and the fish was not good. The atmosphere was OK. The waitress seemed like she was new to the job. Very crowded and loud. I don't think I will go back. Dessert was kind of boring.
