    Spaghetti and meatballs
    Wil Y.

    Had a big family dinner when I visited NYC. Excellent food and service. Wish I got some pizza but the kids got most of it.

    The pie

    Drinks were good, staff was attentive and friendly, the pizza was marginal at best dry and lacked a good sauce.

    I continue to patronize and enjoy Harry's Italian on 2 Gold Street. Speaking for myself, I'm guaranteed a good dining experience. My friend and I planned a celebratory birthday dinner--hers in a few days and mine (just last week) and immediately thought of Harry's. The space is large, rustic and cozy and accommodates any occasion. For us, Harry's is like an old friend. An old reliable. Service was attentive including water refill. We skipped appetizers and ordered our main straightaway. I always find myself selecting the Chicken in the Oven with Eggplant. For an additional $6 I included a side of Spaghetti. As you can see from the photo, a huge portion. My friend followed suit only with the Chicken Arrabiata. It looked really good which I tried in the past as well. They don't skimp on portions--my dish included 3 Chicken cutlets. So delicious. A smooth Chianti complemented the meal. I walked out stuffed. From their Fried Calamari and Baked Clams to their Chicken and pasta dishes, Harry's is sure to please. Pizza is good too! Solid.

    Good food, good atmosphere and service. Preferred vodka sauce over the bolognese. Typical open bar area with dining area to the left.

    Gnocchi w/ Tomato & Basil.

    I first encountered Harry's last year during a brief dalliance with MealPal (a pre-paid subscription plan where you can order specific lunches throughout the week at certain establishments - definitely worth a look if you're working in the city consistently). They had a Penne Vodka lunch option that I grabbed one or two times for pickup. It looked like a decent Italian place, a bit hidden in the depths of the Financial District, and yesterday seemed like a good opportunity for a sit-down visit. If it hadn't been close to 100 degrees, I would have taken advantage of the pleasant outdoor seating section, which would have provided viewpoints of a pretty gentrified neighborhood. This is an area that's typically a bit congested with narrower streets than other parts of the islands, but this block actually has some space to work with. I stopped by around 1:30PM for a solo meal. If you're one of those people who is reluctant to go to a restaurant in the city by yourself, the chances are EXCELLENT that you will get amazing, primo service. I literally am batting close to 1.000 with this. I'm positive the restaurants are super nervous because by definition you have no one to talk to while you wait for your food. Their worry is your gain. It's a nice-looking place; you're probably a five-minute walk or so from the Seaport so there IS a bit of a touristy vibe here but nothing over the top - and for what it's worth, the vast majority of patrons I saw were clearly there on their lunch break like me. I perused the menu beforehand and settled on the lunch portion of the Gnocchi w/ Tomato & Basil ($16). I was provided with a free bread/oil combo to munch on while I waited, but the entrée showed up literally in less than five minutes. The bread was just okay - it's room temperature and honestly a little stale. I still had a pretty significant portion to consume once I finished the gnocchi, and I dipped it in the sauce rather than the oil, which tells you something. But it was still nice to have. The Gnocchi was solid - it WAS the lunch serving but it was a perfect portion for someone who accidentally had a cookie earlier. Have I had better versions of this? Yes; my all-time favorite is probably at E&V in Paterson, NJ, which has a melted cheese component that would have spiffed this up a bit, in my opinion. But it was good. I have a texture-based palate so I was a little suspicious at the thickness of the sauce, but it didn't cross the line for me - no giant chunks of tomato or onions to get me riled up. And the gnocchi itself was exactly the right consistency. I'd describe this as "mainstream" Italian - it doesn't have a homey, old school tablecloth feel but it delivers an above average pasta dish at least. And if you're a solo diner on a schedule, you can easily be out of here in less than half an hour.

    When we entered, there was no one so we figured Service would be fast. I was server was very nice as he took our orders. Very simple.! We had pizza with arugula. It was OK I was not blown away, The Air conditioning was not working in our favor that day, and it was pretty warm. That was one of the reasons why we chose to dine indoors instead of outside. overall it was OK

    Bowtie Shrimp and Asparagus Pasta
    Shannon G.

    Ordered takeout. Flavor was nothing special. I can't understand why some restaurants don't put descriptions under their menu items. Luckily I like tomatoes but I would have never known this was a tomato based dish. I assumed garlic/oil based. Also it was more of tomato broth than a sauce. Millions of tiny pieces of asparagus. Shrimp were just cooked shrimp. No seasoning. Bowties were overcooked bc they were falling apart immediately as I started eating. My coworker was also unimpressed by her meal she ordered. Won't be ordering again.

    Broccoli Rabe and Sausage
    Weiting H.

    The food was decent. I liked the broccoli rabe and sausage orechiette better than the linguine with clams. The cocktails were great as well. Pretty casual place and good for groups to stop by after work.

    Manuel G.

    From the moment we stepped inside, we received amazing service. In a good location, place was clean, and the servers were attentive. Glad we arrived at the time we did as it got super busy right after we were seated! Cons-The wings we ordered as appetizers were good, the mushrooms not so much (dry, no flavor). I had a LIT & a Paloma, couldn't taste the alcohol- just juice and coke... The entrees we ordered- hands down DELICIOUS. Full of flavor, huge portions that neither 4 of us were able to finish even half of our meals!!!! If this was home, we definitely would have brought our left overs with us and I am sure it would taste as it was just cooked!!!! Would definitely recommend!!! Good for kids, accommodating, good music, dimly lit atmosphere!

It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water.
