We went on Friday just before 6PM and there was no wait. Our server, Mary, was outstanding. She was very friendly, engaging, and attentive. She never let my water glass get empty. I had the Shrimp Creole and it was way more than I could possibly eat. The restaurant has a good vibe about it. My only complaint is that... More

Actually, I love Harry's in Lakeland, too! Cajun, creole and southern style rolled into one. Nice atmosphere, great food. My personal favorite is the jambalaya. Nice kick but not overpowering. Great service every time I'm there.

I made my first trip to Harry's last night and I'm glad I did. It was a Tuesday so all beer/wine/liquors were half off! Sat at the bar and the bartender (Sebastian I think?) made us some great drinks. I got the Oyster Po'boy and it was enormous and delicious. I'll be making a return trip very soon.

About 7:00 P.M. April 25th, we were nicely greeted at the door and seated right away. I ordered the Shrimp Creole which is shrimp simmered in a spicy, but savory blend of vegetables and creole tomato sauce. My husband ordered the Pecan Crusted Trout which was seared and served with their "voodoo sauce". I thought that my shrimp creole was... More

We had never been to downtown area so a little lost. Plenty of spots to park but we were not quite sure where Harry's was. Stopped someone at the corner who was in waitstaff outfit and asked her. She worked there! Took us in, up to the check in and told them to give us a good seat. Even came... More

I have eaten at Harry's a number of times. As yet I have had no unpleasant experiences and have fully enjoyed the food, good service and atmosphere.

Recently, I was in Gainesville for a work related Conference. I heard that this North Florida college town had a flourishing restaurant & gourmet scene, so I was kind of excited. As I like to explore and promote restaurants that capture the essence of the city, I was the guy chosen to pick a place where staff, Board members and... More

I had the most wonderful time, when I had dinner here. The food were nothing short of perfect. The waitress was amazing, she was involved and competent. She even managed to make me feel young again, when she needed to see my ID, eventhough I do look as the 32 years I am. This is the place to eat in... More

And the food is good. Our waitress was a hoot and we enjoyed her suggestions for food. They did have gluten free choices and we did have enough food to take home in doggie bags. Parking is not that easy but we did get lucky only because we were early for lunch. Nice place for something special.
