Harry's Old Place

Harry's is one of our favorite neighborhood seafood places. The fish is always fresh and prepared the way you want it. I wasn't very adventurous this night and got the fried shrimp. Large shrimp, butterflied with tails on. 9-10 in the order, with my choice of cheese grits and salad, hush puppies are always served. Hubby enjoyed grouper fingers, with boiled red bliss potatoes and salad.
They are very careful to not overcook fish. The fairly new owner made the rounds through the dining room, checking on his guests. Servers are friendly and do everything to make for a pleasant meal. Some renovations have been done since the new owners, looks fresher and brighter.

Atmosphere was wonderful. Love that it's on the lake. Server and hostess were very friendly. However I was disappointed in my meal. The dolphin was fried but lacking flavor, size was large, however my potatoes were a let down. One of them was rotten on the inside and they tasted off. The homemade Italian dressing tasted like pure vinaigrette and the dessert came from a box. Really unsatisfied as their food truck is amazing. Crab balls were the best thing I had.

Harry's Old Place is a local favorite, especially for seafood. We shared a Harry's in the Bag, a piece of grouper baked with pecans. Appetizers included Deviled Crab Balls, Mussels and Clams. There were also two hush puppies and two sides. It was a fun experience for our table of five, but somewhat pricey. The room decorations seemed to have been there for 25+ years.

This is a nice cozy place. Staff was very pleasant and patient. Never felt rushed like at some places. We wanted to try some different items but, with our rambunctious 4yr old decided to keep it simple and just did the fish and chips and kids got shrimp. It was all very good (kids even ate all their food). We will be coming again maybe as a date night and just the two of us.

Had a great dinner here with friends from our of state. We were all impressed. Only negative was the long wait (almost 45 minutes), which made dinner much later than we had planned. But it was worth the wait, and the wait certainly was a reflection of the quality of the food. Among the four of us we had salmon, swordfish, seafood pasta and crab cakes. All were delicious! We also had deviled crab balls for an appetizer and key lime pie and chocolate cheesecake for dessert. Everything was delicious. Can't wait to go again.
