| - Very much enjoyed my time at Harvest, which boasts a unique and warm environment.
First, my server, Lindsay, was terrific. Bright, informative, enjoyable, with excellent wine and food recommendations, she was outstanding.
I ordered a lot, as the appetizers and sides are on the smaller side and I wanted to try a few things. I started with the Naan and dips. The naan was good, not the best I've had but very good and it didn't much matter because the trio of dips/spreads were SO good. Beet greens pesto was the best (one of the best tastes of the evening) but the yogurt dip and the roasted tomato pesto were also top notch. Yum.
The Grilled Cauliflower appetizer was good. I think I was expecting a little more char. But it had a lot of flavor. It came room temp, which surprised me as well.
Then I had a slow roasted porchetta, very very good, with wonderful green beans on the side. I also tried their potato gratin, which I loved. It was not a traditional american *au gratin* with a ton of cheese, but more roughly smashed potatoes in a gratin dish with a lot of mustard seeds. The mustard made me very happy.
They also do a 'snack cart' which comes by your table early on. This is a great idea, very well done. I had the steak tartare, which rivaled the best steak tartare I've ever had. Easily the best dish of the night. I could face plant in that stuff.
A very good evening!
