Worst brunch ever. The scrambled eggs for my son were greasy and tasteless; worse than a deli. My husband s dish (whatever he ordered) was a mush of sausage and grits??! Dish didn t make sense. I ordered soup and it really feft like left-over yuck (rabbit sausage, white bean, and something else)...

I stop by the bar here often after work on the way to the train. Great cocktails, speedy service, the bartenders are funny and good with the banter. The Drunken Palmer cocktail is dangerously good and easy to drink, and the burger or the meatballs always hit the spot.

My lobster dish had the shell still on when it was not supposed to. When I told the waitress she was so casual about it and said she'll talk to the chef. Came back with no response. Took my knife away and didn't bring a new one to replace it. They were out of hot chocolate on their dessert menu. Ove...

I have tried Harlan and few times and have come to the conclusion the place is just poorly run. They offer a very limited over priced menu. The salad was drenched in a thick, gooey pungent tasting dressing. On one occasion, I went in for lunch and the hostess said they were now on dinner service an...

Perfect gin and tonic. Delicious baby spinach salad with candied walnuts and strawberry vinegret. Amazing salmon piccata. Fixed menu for restaurant week but great choices for an excellent value. Also had tiramisu for dessert which was wonderful but not part of the fixed menu. Crowded but very friend...

Ordered takeout from here and it was a bit of a nightmare. The hostess took the order but gave it to the bartender. She said 20 minutes- I showed up in 20 minutes and waited another 30 minutes for the food to be ready. After I picked up the food I realized some items weren t there. Turns out she did...

Pros: Pastry basket was incredible - must have a dedicated pastry chef back there. Spicy chicken and waffles was life changing.

Cons: Service was slow on one occasion I went on a Saturday early afternoon - nowhere near capacity. Let down by banana hazelnut french toast - flavors were an odd matc...

After, what I thought was bad service. Turned out to be a misunderstanding, I am thankful for the way management handled the situation. Before getting upset, talk to a manager. I received a full refund, which was very thoughtful of them.

I hoped to like this more than I did! It was just okay. For the price I would definitely recommend taking an Uber or the free trolley three minutes down the road and stopping at any of the great restaurants in downtown Stamford. The drink menu is fine, nothing exciting or unique. The dinner was disa...

This restaurant is great! The service is a mix of fine dinning with casual. The ancient grain and Quinoa bowl is a must have on the menu. For the quality, you're going to have to pay, prices are much higher than the area average and it's very much directed at the business lunch crowd. That being sai...

With a widely varied menu ranging from a mozzarella bar to small plates to full plates and sides, Harlan Social delivers great food. The service is attentive, knowledgeable and engaging. The wine list is broad and there is a full bar. This was a very good experience. This was our second visit and we...

Food took forever. Took forever for our waiter to even come to the table. We had to ask for the manager and request our waiter. Staff was nice enough but didnt move with urgency or really acknowledge us. Food was sub par and a bit oily. But the fries and decor were ok. Ruined the end to an otherwis...

I normally would not bother to review. However I can't give this restaurant a low enough review to do it justice. Bartenders that night were the worst! Not a smile, word, or thank you in sight. I was hoping for something upscale! Instead I have food that is overcooked and fish that was so tough it w...

Went here for dinner. Pricey but excellent. Three of us had the New York Strip steak and one the salmon. All cooked beautifully. We eat at Harlan when we visit Stamford. It's easy to get to, has a nice vibe, and a wide range of interesting and delicious items. Service is always pleasant and prompt. ...

Our experience was with a private party/wedding reception mid August 2014. Two words, they rocked! Do not try the crab cakes if you like crab and have addiction problems. The food was amazing, Chef runs a precision operation and I was somewhat cut off by the ASM mid conversation because "he had to g...

Gastro pub meets sports bar, this neighborhood joint have a pretty good new American line up, with a decent selection of cocktails and drinks. The menu seems a bit stale (can't recall much change for the 2 years that I've lived nearby), but the items taste delicious.

I also ordered their shrimp and cheese charcuterie. The humus was kick your fingers good and the warm pita was the best I...

Have enjoyed 2 really nice lunches on the weekend. Food is delicious and service great. I was a bit surprised by $4.00 cup of coffee. I am not looking for inexpensive, I know where to find that spot. Just was a bit put off by that price.

I ordered a croq madame. It's basically a really fancy grilled cheese with special sauce, ham, and an egg on top. I've had it at other places and it is very good. If you Google the dish, it looks like a sandwich.

This is what they gave me. A massive amount of cheese, some ham, and soggy bread at ...

Food is very inconsistent - ranging from poor to excellent. Salmon, for example was excellent; but miso cod was salty & very one dimensional.

Service is spotty - Don, the bartender, is great. But I can't say the same about other servers.

I guess they have a lot to work on.

Not bad at all ... for Stamford, CT
The pickings in Stamford are slim, mighty slim. This, however, is actually not a bad place. It's airy, friendly, and the food is really not bad at all.
Mind you, the whole place has a kinda corporate vibe - think "the type of resto you'd find in a hotel". Frankl...

Ate at Harlan tonite. Lovely restaurant--ridiculously poor service. Did our wait person have a bad day or is excruitiatingly bad service the norm? After ordering drinks in an almost empty restaurant, a 15 minute wait seemed excessive and then the table next to us was served first.
