    Located on Cypress Gardens rd off Cypress Gardens Blvd. With peoples choice award for French onion soup and fresh seafood prepared many different ways. Harry’s is located on a lake. Menu is limited for non seafood lovers but will be more than satisfied with steak and chicken choices. Although not the best French onion soup I’ve had in fine dining restaurants, it’s definitely the best in the county. Not salty and full of flavor. The garlic steak was served with garlic and butter. The grissle was tough but the meat was tender and flavorful. The French fries and hush puppies were much better than chain restaurants. The only thing missing from calling it fine dining was the absence of white table cloths which I would prefer for ambiance. I highly recommend for a special night out for seafood and you must try the French onion soup.

    I read an online article on best seafood restaurants in Florida and was not expecting one to be from Winter Haven. The article described a dish called grouper in a bag that was a pecan crusted grouper. That caught my attention and I made the drive to check them out. They have over a dozen types of fish made anyway you want. They also have chef creations, boils and seafood baskets. Even have steak and chicken for the non-seafood fan. The food was delicious. Well worth the drive. Great atmosphere and friendly service. If you are a seafood lover, this is a must.

    A very popular place in Winter Haven. Went on a Friday evening and arrived around 5:00 pm. Instead of waiting for an inside table we chose to eat on the patio.6 tables on the patio and all were occupied by the time we left. A large selection of fresh fish to choose from. Several boils as well.Highly recommend. I will definitely be going back!

    All together this place was alright. I wouldn’t go there again. I had the Grouper sandwich and the grouper was cooked PERFECTLY but lacked flavor and the bun was soggy on the bottom where it touched the plate. We went there at 4 and was informed their buns weren’t ready which was disappointing because we never received any. The hush puppies were very dense and dry. The fries are delicious and the coleslaw was amazing! My grandmother LOVED the escargot but my boyfriend did not like the catfish because it lacked flavor. The service was fair, but I had to remind the waitress to serve my son the ice cream that came with his kids meal and she also still charged us for the kids spaghetti which he didn’t eat because it was so heavily seasoned with black pepper and the meatballs were so rubbery if you threw them off the wall they’d bounce right back at you. Overall I would not spend my money there again.

    Today I had the Garlic steak, a ribeye cooked medium and it was the best steak I have gotten so far in Florida. We have been here a little over a year. The wait staff was courteous, fast and friendly. A very clean restaurant and not noisy at all. I would definitely recommend this place and I will be going back.

    We are visiting and always look for the best casual seafood places when we're in Florida. Found this place through Google reviews. Our food was amazing and just what we wanted! Even the kid's meals of shrimp and fries were really good. Service was great, prices are fair, and we were seated where we could look out over the lake. The key lime pie was perfect 🥰

    Pic on the left is stuffed grouper from harrys 12/28/22 pic on right is mannys in haines city stuffed grouper 12/27/22. Harrys was delicious, full of flavor and nice portions. Mannys could not of been worse, couldn't cut the grouper with a steak knife, Manager basically said to bad, its a new chef. Harrys definitely our new Florida favorite

    Amazing fish and gator!!! I got Fish and Chips, that was, probably the best I ever tried!!! My husband had code with Harry’s old place source. We could not stop eating, I think we did not even talked while eating. So delicious it was!!! Cocktails were interesting too: I had Mermaid and my husband had something else, but it was great as well. Desert was as good as gator bites!!! If you really want fresh, delicious fish and seafood products, highly recommend this place.

    Found this little hole in the wall place on my way home and I was very happy with the experience. The waitress was such a sweetheart and so helpful. The food was amazing and fresh. And I love the view out on the back side of the restaurant that overlooks a lake.

    This place is amazing, can't believe how good the salmon was. I got it with garlic caper butter, grilled, and it was delicious. Onion loaf was sooo good; really big portion. The grits were kind of cold though. Broiled platter was good, but spicy. Fried grouper fingers were great, fell apart easily. Love how fresh everything was. The soup was not good though, cold and watery. The waitress was nice though and gladly took it off our bill. For Mothers day they gave out carnation flowers which was very sweet. Cheesecake was absolutely to die for. That day it was blueberry. Happy Mothers Day!!❤

    Before we came into town to go to Legoland, we found Harry's on the internet. It sounded like a good place to eat off the beaten path. We were right! We had great, courteous service from our waitress and had four other staff members service us as well. The food was cooked perfectly and stayed hot.

    Best seafood in the Cypress Gardens and Winterhaven area. I did my research to find the best in the area and we ate here twice in one week. Excellent! Best selection of fresh fish options and seafood choices. I would recommend and will definitely return to this place.

    Salmon with shrimp with rum glazed pecans and cheesy Grits. It was sweet and all the Natura fish flavors were lost. Grits were good and tasted like porridge my granma used to make. The steak was cooked to perfection but the taste was missing. Lobster was a bit dry but ok. Margarita and daquri were ok. I anticipated flavors bursting in my mouth and that's what was missing.
