    Tasty spot for a bite of food and lots of sports! Service was fast and friendly and my friend wolfed down the chicken sandwich before I could take a picture. It's a large space with lots of TVs, and I'm not sure how it's decided which TV shows what. No frills sliders were better with mustard, and for $16, the fries should have been included and the patty should have filled out the bun. I'd go back to watch some sports, and I can better judge the sound. It was pretty empty when we went.

    I've been to Harlem Tavern so much that I was a regular in my 20's. After a few years, I wanted to swing the block and see if their food and vibes were as good as I remembered. And they are! They're a great option for a late night bite. We decided to stop by for a drink at the bar and to take dinner to go on 1/31/24 Ambiance 7/10 The space is large with seating both indoors and outdoors so you barely ever have to wait for a table. Throwback and today's R&B croons from the speakers. The space can be loud depending on where you sit. If you're looking for a quiet experience, sit inside, in the back. The decor is pretty typical for bar and grill. Service 7/10 The service at Harlem Tavern is quick and pretty efficient. They waiters aren't super personable but they do a great job of making sure your food comes out fast and checking in on you multiple times. While I don't see them really making connections with the patrons, they are definitely working hard. Food 8/10 My favorite meal from HT is the Turkey Burger because it's juicy and thick. The caramelized onions on it are cooked to perfection and give it the perfect touch. Turkey Burger gets a 8/10. In efforts to unbig my back, I also had a caesar salad and it was just ok. They accidentally gave me mayo instead of caesar dressing so I had to put my own ranch on it. Salad gets a 5/10 for me. My bf usually gets the Salmon burger and yall know I always get a sample from him. It's also juicy and flavorful and has the same onions on it. I give the salmon burger a 7.5/10. Though I didn't get it this time, I also love their pot of mussels. For a bar, they have good food. I love that HT (and the kitchen) is open until midnight on weekdays and 1am on weekends. Overall, I will always recommend HT for both food and drinks in Harlem.
