Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Harlem

Great middle eastern style food. Some options I expected were not on the menu like gyro or saffron basmati rice but what we did order were great traditional dishes.

Our family really enjoyed our experience at Sandro’s. The staff and atmosphere were welcoming and the food was amazing. The halibut was cooked to perfection, as was the Cacio e Pepe! We recommend dining there and will definitely go back.

This place is just perfect! First we had the Parker rolls (must have) the whipped butter with garlic was so tasty!! Second we had the wedge salad which was very fresh and the spicy ranch was so good. Third we had the skirt steak with twice baked potato. Skirt steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The cranberry pear punch cocktail was great!! All around great atmosphere. Highly recommend!!

We sat upstairs and thoroughly enjoyed our rack of lamb dinners. Despite many tables being vacant, a group of eight people on the other side of the room were discourteously noisy. Our service was less attentive than it should have been, especially given the absence of other tables for her to wait on. Nonetheless, the food was excellent and we enjoyed ourselves.

We had the eggs Benedict and the lemon curd pancakes. Both were very good. I would definitely have the Benedict again. Good service.
