Great food. Very good and attentive service. Reservations are highly recommended as it gets busy - especially Saturday and Sunday mornings.

The Grey Dog has a chill, neighborhood vibe, and so do the servers. Everyone helped each other out and the service was continual. We ordered two drinks, housemade chorizo hash, and oven roasted turkey sandwich. The chorizo hash was okay, but the potatoes didn't have any crispness and the egg was overcooked so it didn't have a runny yolk. The turkey sandwich was delicious!!! It tasted like a Thanksgiving turkey meal with the sweet bacon jam. I would go back for this!

Very charming place with a dog theme...local artist paintings of dogs on the wall for starters. Demure atmosphere great for conversation. Always a big plus when dining out with a friend or someone special. Next, onto service. Our server seemed a bit new but was very pleasant and accommodating. He was a having a little difficulty with the iPad ordering system but got through it AND even got our order right. Score! Now for the food... my guest and I both ordered 1/2 lb Big House burger with cheddar cheese. One without the caramelized onions and paired with a toss salad. The other had the onions bacon and a side of Julienne fries. Burgers were very tasty and cooked to our liking. Lastly the peach mango fizz was delicious and not too sweet. If I was in the neighborhood again, I would go back for breakfast......

What a lovely breakfast location. It's very rustic and cool. It's busy enough to where you know it's good, but not too busy to where you're waiting forever and a day for a seat. I visited with a party of 3 and we were seated right away. I opted for a simple breakfast and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The sweet potato fries were also arguably the best I've ever had. This restaurant is great and I would definitely recommend going!

Surprisingly my first time at Gray Dog! We made a reservation for four people at 12pm on a Sunday. When we arrived it was super busy, despite it being a rainy day. We actually chose to sit in their outdoor dining structure which was comfortable - not cold and every table had their own heater. Inside it was nicely decorated for the holidays. The servers were attentive, but food and drinks took a long time to arrive. I ordered an latte which was good, they also have a pretty long cocktail list. For my meal, I took a chance and ordered the shrimp cake burger. I was hoping it would be more of a ground shrimp burger, but it was also mixed with breadcrumb and was more similar to a a crab cake/clam cake. Still tasty, but I was wishing I had ordered the fish tacos. My husband got the Gray Dog breakfast which looked good - but it was a lot on one plate -fries, eggs, french toast, and sausage. Would have been nice if they separated it on two plates. Very solid breakfast option in Chelsea!

The ambiance is very cute here! It was very cozy and lively. The tables and seating are quite packed but it wasn't very uncomfortable and helped to contribute to the cozy and lively atmosphere. The decor is also very fun. I got the chicken pot pie soup which looked adorable with a pie crust top. Beneath the pie crust was a warm thick chicken soup. I wished this soup could be bigger because it was delicious but it was still quite filling. The Brussels sprouts we shared as a table and they were nice and crispy but also sweet and savory. This was a great spot to visit on a cold day for brunch with friends! Though do know that prices are akin to what you expect for the west village/Chelsea ($$)
