Dining and hospitality experiences are personal. They restore, entertain, fulfill, and when executed properly, memory creating. Striving for perfect balance in foods and flavor is a craft, composing them in originality and seasonally sustainable is a gift and to share and present them in an authentic atmosphere of comfort is a legacy.

We had an outstanding dining experience at Harvest Restaurant in Medina! It was incredibly convenient having it located on the first floor of the Bent’s Opera House in which we were staying. The service was top-notch. Our waitress and her shadow trainee worked together flawlessly and made us feel truly cared for. The chicken French was absolutely delicious, and the cocktails were excellent! The hostess deserves extra credit for juggling both the restaurant and the hotel front desk too all with a big smile! Elegant atmosphere, amazing food, and wonderful staff. Loved the illuminated menus! Highly recommend for a romantic date night or special occasion!

We’re so glad we finally made it to Harvest at Bent’s Opera House. It was absolutely worth the drive! The restaurant is modern and beautifully designed, with outstanding service from start to finish. The drinks were delicious, and every dish was perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Even though we were full, we couldn’t resist dessert, and it was just as impressive as the rest of the meal. We left completely satisfied and will definitely make the scenic drive from the Buffalo area again!

First of all, Rose was the best bartender I’ve met all year; one incredible person. The food- incredible. The presentation = a 10. The drinks were also fantastic (last word, etc). I’m So glad I drove out of my town and found this place right in downtown Medina. I wish my company was able to allow my stay right in the hotel… I would have been at Harvest every night.

Beautiful space, friendly and well trained staff, delicious food and craft cocktails. If you have the time, stay in one of the hotel’s unique rooms. A fun and relaxing experience. Medina is a great town with lots of little things to do and adorable shops.

This place is hands down my favorite restaurant anywhere! It is a true culinary delight! In all my travels, I have never been to a restaurant that tops this. The chef is a true genius. Last night Iwe even tried the rabbit, which is the chefs grandmother’s recipe…it was so incredibly tender and flavorful. The pasta is always homemade, and I always add the chicken to mine. It is roasted and might be the juiciest chicken I have ever had. The cocktails are handcrafted and so unique with a wonderful meld of flavors. As if this place isn’t impressive enough, they even have their own pastery chef. The facocia bread was so soft and fresh, and the toffee bread pudding was unreal. We usually have Steve take care of us, and he makes sure your experience is perfection. Last night, we had Marissa, and even with Steve setting the bar so high, she did not disappoint. She was professional but fun. The manager even gave us a tour of the boutique hotel, which had beautifully designed unique rooms that really give you a wow feeling. And the event space on the 3rd floor will leave your jaw on the floor. This place will blow you away on every level. It is hands down our favorite place. The second we land in NY we had straight for it. And when in town we try to eat there as many times as possible… we are going back on Saturday because I am dying to try the beef wellington. Thank you Harvest for giving western NY such a culinary Gem.

We have had two amazing meals at this absolute gem. The service, ambiance and food rivals some of the best restaurants we have dined in, including Paris. Simple perfection on a plate. The bar is bright and elegant with well conceived craft cocktails and importantly, well done classics. Aperitif are not available in the traditional sense yet but the GM went out of his way to ensure my brother had something to enjoy. Have a bit of patience as this new endeavor finds its way and enjoy the experience. The food is worth the wait and attentive servers working as a seamless team make the night a true experience!

What an absolutely beautiful dining experience. The waitstaff was so attentive, the open concept kitchen made you feel as though you’re interacting with the chefs, and the seasonality of the menu was exquisite. If you’re ever in Medina and want to treat yourself to a delicious meal- Harvest is the place to do so.

For a fine dinning restaurant the table they gave us was unacceptable, they put two plastic portable tables together to make a table for 6 which was huge we were so far away from each other made difficult to talk and to reach for food, they also placed the table in front banquet room so we had to stare at people coming in and out of the room all night.
My husband order a tomahawk steak advertised as 56oz but it was more like a 20oz for $140 we felt ripped off.
I ordered papardale bolognese it was good.
It was my husbands birthday celebration we felt a little embarrassed with our guest it was not a fine dinning experience we were hoping for, just an average restaurant, for the price point there are better options out there.

Absolutely tremendous meal. Open kitchen display was really nice addition to the evening. Staff was professional. The mustard gnocchi with Brussels and lardons… Almost ordered one to go.
The burrata was the best I’ve ever had. Tied the whole salad together with the acidic dressing and crunchy brunoise apples.
But the filet stole the show for me on Friday night. Not something I order. However I would make the hour drive again for that dish alone. Favorite filet dish in WNY.
Ideal atmosphere for this kind of food. Great wines too.
We must go back!
