Harborside: Reviews & Ratings
Ordered the Potato Skins, New England Dill Clam Chowder, and Tips Caesar Salad. Overall, it was a very delicious, calming atmosphere and also sampled the shrimp trio delicious combo. Lobster tacos were very refreshing. I definitely recommend this place for a date and family outing.
Brought my Auntie here on a whim. The view from our table was beautiful. We enjoyed watching people fish near the dock. Our server was great. She recommended the crab dip, and it did not disappoint! Auntie had the fried shrimp. I ordered fish tacos. We both enjoyed the food!
Worth the 45 min wait! Food was delicious! Especially the clam chowder made in house! Very rich and creamy! So good! My daughter had the fettuccine alfredo, if you like a butter based alfredo, it was just the right amount of buttery!
We ate here at about 7:30 on a Wednesday night. It was a great atmosphere, very peaceful and relaxing. Mike was our server, he was very friendly and attentive. I had the stuff flounder, it was amazing. Definitely recommend.
Our new favorite place! First time customers. We were immediately greeted with friendly, smiling faces. The lake view seating was exceptional, the booths were super spacious and our server, Hallie, was very knowledgeable, attentive, and professional. The food was beyond amazing. (See photos) The bread was perfectly crisp on the outside but soft and fresh on the inside, the salad was, hands down, the best we have ever had; Super fresh, mixed and served at our table, and the dressing was indescribably delicious. I ordered the chicken breasts with creamy mushroom gravy and my husband ordered the chicken pot pie. All phenomenal and extremely tender. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back.
My family and I are In from out of town and were so impressed by the food, served and ambiance. Our server Destiny was outstanding. So personable, attentive and really good at her job. We loved the food. My husband said his rib eye was perfection and my son loved kids Mac n cheese. My shrimp trio was great as well. The mussels are spicy but outstanding. Strong drinks and a beautiful view. Wish we lived closer than 3 hours or we would be regulars
Outstanding Service and Food! The Blackberry Cobbler is freshly made in their kitchen if you don't mind waiting, we sure didn't, it will be served piping hot and freshly baked! It's OMG Fresh!! Salmon Dip is consistently delish and the Grouper Sandwich perfectly blackened. I also recommend the Ahi Tuna, always seared perfection. The view? Different levels offer indoor/outdoorish/patio seating with a beautiful view of the channel or the lake!
This was my first time here. From the views, customer service, and delicious meal, I was sold. I was greeted by Mona Lisa (Manager). She seated my mother and I with an excellent view of the lakefront. We were then greeted by our server, Jonathan (Jon). I ordered a cobb salad with blackened salmon & my mother ordered the whitefish sandwich (fried) with vegetables. This most definitely won’t be my last time. Whether local or visiting, make sure to give this local establishment a try.
