We haven’t been to this location since it was Pieces of Eight back in the 80!s. Harbor House is such a great reimagining of the space. The decore and layout is elegant and energetic with the open kitchen concept well executed. Service was above and beyond, with the kitchen and staff offering to make a perfectly executed off-menu item (shrimp alfredo) for my daughter on a busy Saturday night. I asked for a menu change as well, and they happily agreed. The food was all A+, with all 6 people greatly enjoying their meals and wine selections.

Everything was delightful! Wonderful and attentive server, Kayla - awesome! The food was outstanding - beautifully prepared and presented. Drinks were excellent! Love the ambiance and added perk was the holiday decor which made the space even more welcoming. We had several noisy tables around us which was a little disappointing for our table. Overall, however, a great experience and wonderful vibe.
