A steady Harvard Square presence for almost 50 years, Harvest embodies the ever-evolving spirit of Cambridge and deep respect for culinary tradition. Our seasonal menus marry the innovation of contemporary cooking with a timeless respect for American culinary traditions and an emphasis on local farmers and purveyors. Our spacious bar, fireside dining, and hidden gem of a patio each offer a welcome reprieve from the fast-paced world happening just outside our doors.

Serving Lunch, Dinner, and Saturday/Sunday Brunch with seating on our seasonal outdoor Garden Terrace. We highly recommend making a reservation; outside tables are available weather permitting and may be requested but cannot be reserved or guaranteed. Harvest offers Private Dining from 15 to 60 people. Sit-down lunches, dinners, and receptions are just some of the Private Functions Harvest can provide.

    We went for an early dinner before the theater and, as there weren’t may people there, we enjoyed a quiet dinner—rare these days! The food was delicious but only warm not hot which is the reason Harvest gets 4 stars and not 5.

    Went for the dine Boston menu tonight. It was absolute show stopper. My husband and I ordered 1 of everything off the menu and everything was lovely. We started with the caviar Gougeres off the daily menu-a personal favorite and then had the soup and the carbonara both were fabulous. Then I had the Char and my husband the pork. Both standout dishes though I felt the char was a little better. Good portions and delectable dishes. I got the chocolate tart for dessert the honey was so fragrant, it was decadent. My husband got the grapefruit meringue which was delicate and refreshing Our waitress was kind, friendly and courteous. We’re going back Wednesday for the lunch menu.

    Food was way too salty and a bad meal for the first time here. Restaurant Week may be a part of this but my wife’s pork dish was inedibly salty and leek soup thick as mud. Quite surprising and disappointing.

    I had fond memories of this restaurant from when I lived in Massachusetts over 25 years ago. So I was surprised that it was still open, and shocked at how good - and relevant - it still is. And in this post Covid world, dining out has become so hit or miss. But Harvest is hitting on all cylinders. Great and creative menu, but still some classics, refined but not unrecognizable. Food preparation and presentation excellent. A balanced and well thought out wine list, and you don't need to be a millionaire to find a nice wine. Service is old school and flawless. Relying on professionalism - not personality. Sorry I don't live closer, but I will be back next time I am back in Beantown!

    Loved everything we tried at Harvest! Especially the scrumptious beef stew, the silky broccoli cheddar soup and the raclette. Our group of 7 attended the Ice Party on Feb 23 and we loved the variety of foods at the event. What a fun atmosphere and opportunity to support Furnishing Hope. We plan to attend next year!

    Very fun vibe! Arrived early at 635 for our 7pm reservation, checked in & explained we would be waiting in the bar. At 7:15 I checked in w/front desk & I think they forgot about us .We were seated right away . Our waiter was very friendly but also worked as a bartender. Main course tool a long time .. when we asked about our meal our waiter checked & then the food was immediately brought to the table. Fries & 1 main course were cold.. am thinking our food had been up for a bit. Esteban never came back to see how everything was til we were finishing up w/our meal. Unfortunate.. but We would definitely try Harvest again. Am hoping this was just an off night.
