Editorial Review for The Harrison – by Stephanie Rosenbaum
The Scene
Inside this elegant Tribeca charmer, candlelight flickers off creamy painted wainscoting and the welcome is warm, even to walk-ins. Owner Jimmy Bradley has the sophisticated-comfort vibe down pat; one could entertain a client or splurge with friends here with equal aplomb.
The Food
The kitchen has a happy affinity for seasonality and simplicity, letting the pure flavors of top-notch ingredients do the work. Deep orange wild King salmon gets a potent horseradish-lemon-Dijon mustard crust that stands up to the rich fish; a juicy pork chop is a marvel of tenderness, caramelized on the outside, silky pink within. There's a slight tendency to undercook the vegetables: Cute, thumbnail-sized Brussels sprouts and fat white butter beans may arrive semi-hard. But that just leaves more room for the splendid desserts, including a gorgeously tart Meyer lemon meringue pie, or a roulade of Valrohona chocolate mousse topped with a shimmering round of orange granita.

A friend of mine has been under a lot of stress lately so I wanted to take him to a relaxing place and cheer him up. It worked! The food was lovely and the place was pretty but the servicer was rude which got me down. Another thing...... when I called to make reservations for 8pm the receptionist said they were booked up and could only seat us at 7:30. However the place was a quarter full all the time we were there. So I guess the food and place is pretty but I can't say much for the service.
Pros: food
Cons: service

I love the Harrison! We ate there for the second time last night and had one of the best meals ever. Each course was perfectly cooked and extremely flavorful. The panna cotta for dessert was the perfect summer delight! The Harrison is our new favorite place.
