Fantastic food! Went their for my Wife's birthday and we ordered the calamari app (this could have been a meal on its own). We also got steak and lobster and seafood pasta. It was absolutely delicious. For her birthday, they gave us a free piece of cheesecake, which was to die for. Absolutely amazing experience.Parking: Parking is at the back of the building. It is a little tight when driving to the back due to the building and the railing for next door.

I have driven past Harpo's a hundred times, but, it never really jumped out at me from the street. It's in a rather unassuming building tucked beside a strip plaza.It's a bit of a mixed bag inside, the private room we used was unassuming, tidy, with chandeliers and a fireplace. A typical banquet room with tasteful touches.The restaurant has attractive stonework, chandeliers and a bright sunroom. The furniture reminds me of a 80's Florida retirement home. Don't get me wrong though, it's tidy, clean, and presents well.The food is quite good, it's unpretentious and straightforward. I sampled the salmon, chicken and prime rib and they were all great, juicy and tender. It's located in-between a couple of other steakhouses in the area. Harpo's holds it own against the national chain across the street, and, I preferred it to the other steakhouse just a bit north. If you're looking for a good old-school prime rib, steak, salmon or chicken dinner, give it a shot.

We had our wedding here. The service was great. Lisa was so patient and prompt in answering all my questions. The restaurant itself is very elegant and the prefect venue. Every single guest we had complimented the food which was absolutely amazing! It was great quality and fresh and they were able to accommodate my food allergies

I truly love this place! This was our second year in a row coming for Valentine's Day and both times were lovely. The service is good and staff are friendly, the food is always incredibly delicious. Last night was probably the best steak I've ever had (I ordered the Filet Mignon). I also love the charm of the restaurant. I highly recommend Harpo's for any occasion.

The BF made a reservation for Valentines 2024 and we were both so excited as it’s our first time to be at Harpo’s. The first 30mins, our server was nice but our mains took forever and nothing was said about what’s going on. We waited for 1.5hrs for our mains so we just asked to have the food for to go instead. It didn’t arrive for another 30mins so we just asked to cancel it and finally the server said it’s coming. We got home and tried to eat the food, boy oh boy it didn’t deserve our $230. I had the prime rib with lobster tail and the BF got the chicken linguini with lobster tail. The foods were okay. We’re so sad about the entire experience. I’m sure that’s our first and last.

Classic Steakhouse charm. Special occasions for most, regular dining for some, Harpo's checks a lot of boxes.We were there for a private function, so did not eat off the menu. Prime rib was great, seasoned well and served with potatoes and roasted vegetables.The atmosphere is the takeaway here, with very good food as well. I find myself drawn more to the old-world restaurants that are of a bygone era where martinis and steaks were the norm. Harpo's fills that need. Service is as expected from a classic Steakhouse. Great and unwavering.Dining area is updated, with classic touches of chandeliers that appear, I hope, to be original to the establishment.I would go back to try the menu, and a more intimate experience. The dining room we had to ourselves was spacious and warm.

I was honestly disappointed in my experience. The seafood was undercooked and I had a rotten mushroom served to me. The Cesar salad was good. The server was very nice and understanding that we were not satisfied with the experience but the food quality was not within her control.

Everything about this restaurant was great other than needing to update the interior. The bench seats we were placed at were in desperate need of replacement.

Reserved seating for 4 ppl and were seated promptly at 6:45 p.m. Our server was onpoint. The sirloin that came with the lobster meal was tough and inedible. It was brought to the server's attention and she said that it would be taken off the bill. The atmosphere was lovely up until they decided to dismantle the tables in the dining room while we were still eating (still within our 2-hour limit). It became loud and distracting and we felt pressured to leave. Also, a worker (not our server) rudely interrupted us by reaching over the table to get our plates without any notice or excuse me. On the way out, we waited for someone to give us our jackets and there was no one to be found as they were busy rushing to close up at 8:45 p.m. If that's the case don't offer a 6:45 p.m. reservation with 2 hour sitting limit. It's not worth the money spent at this "fine dining restaurant".

It took me 15 years to dine at Harpos. In my most humble opinion I was 15 years late. The food was fantastic… the saganaki was top tier in addition to the main dishes. Marco was attentive and incredibly welcoming.Thank you ??Don’t wait 15 years like me. Reserve and dine today!!

Ordered the prime rib. Was drowned in liquid. Smelled off, like meat would smell when left in the fridge a couple days.Complained after 1 bite. Waitress said that was normal. I Wrote them online to let them know there was an issue, i got no response. Not addressed at all.$50 steak that my dog ate.I expected a response from the owners or at least acknowledgement.I was not impressed at all. Even less impressed with the non existent customer service in this matter.
