Harry's Italian Battery Park - New York

Vegetarian-only restaurant review: We ordered a vegetarian pizza, but it didn't meet our expectations. There were very few toppings, it was a bit oily, and the cheese wasn't evenly distributed. However, the staff was friendly, and the overall atmosphere of the place is nice. It's worth a visit to see for yourself!

The outdoor seating is quite comfortable, and the lunch menu is reasonably priced with generous portions. The service is friendly, adding to the overall experience. I enjoyed my cocktail, though it was a bit too strong for a lunchtime drink. The pasta dishes were delicious and cooked to perfection. I found the orecchiette to be a bit greasy, but very flavorful, with plenty of sausage and broccolini. I look forward to trying the pizza on my next visit!

I sat at the bar, where the bartender was friendly. However, despite it not being crowded and me being the only one at the bar, it took a long time to order a drink and to ask for a to-go container for my food. I'm giving it 4 stars mainly because the pizza was excellent.

We've ordered pizza (consistently good) from Harry's numerous times before Covid for work events, and even had a happy hour event at the Harry's on Gold (also pre-Covid). But this is the first time I actually dined in at the Murray Street location. My co-workers and I came in for lunch on a Wednesday at noon. It was our first in-person team event since before Covid! The place wasn't too packed, which was nice. I had the fettucine alfredo. I wasn't expecting much but it was actually very good. It is very rich though, as expected, so if you are going to get a heavy pasta, I would recommend coming with a dining buddy, and ordering a pasta and a pizza to share. Lunch prices are pretty reasonable for the area. A lunch portion of pasta ranges from $13-$15 but the portions are actually pretty large. I was already getting full halfway through but powered through another quarter or so before I finally threw in the towel. Definitely wouldn't mind coming back for more lunch specials or trying out their dinner menu. Makes me wonder why I have not dined here before, after almost 7 years of working in the area!

Ok pizza. Only chicken parm I met I didn't like. Hard calamari. Best part was they gave first responders great discounts which is a really nice thing to do! Overall not delicious food but nice service.
