Never been letdown here. Foods always GREAT. My servers always great especially Bishr. He really knows how to recommend entrees and serve a table like a professional. Will definitely be back!!

Best creole food you’ll have in Ocala! The service is amazing, particularly our waitress Amy who went above and beyond to make sure we have a great time. The atmosphere is nice and cozy and the beer selection is great. They’re dog friendly too! Will definitely be coming back :)

My husband and I decided to go to Harry's for an early Anniversary dinner. We had an amazing experience and excellent service. We started with the signature crab cakes with roasted red pepper aioli. They literally melted in your mouth. So delicious! We then shared a bowl of yummy gumbo. For entrées, Hubby chose the andouille crusted grouper with red beans and rice. I chose the blackened redfish topped with crab with coron maque choux. We both had a hard time deciding which fish was better! Our waiter, Bisher, was excellent and was on the spot with drink refills and anything we needed to make our experience better. It had been a bit since we've been to Harry's, but we decided to make it a point to go back more often. Excellent meal for sure!

This was my first time here, food was ok. I had the fried green tomatoes for the first time and let me tell you I wanted more. The shrimp and grits was ok a little salty but it was ok. Now, the drinks were awesome. You will be very happy with the drinks I promise.

Why are you reading this review? Just go to Harry's already! Our server was super helpful, friendly, and prompt. Made for a great dining experience. The food portions are great and everything is delicious. Everything is top-notch. I'll be back!

It was fenamonal! It was three of us, and we all got something different, so we could try a couple of the dishes. My daughter got the Surf and Truf, my husband got the Shrimp Po Boy, and I got the Jumboliea. They were all very good. The pumpkin Martini was delicious. 😋 We didn't get to try dessert. We were so full. I recommend them. The service was also excellent. We will be back.

Harry's provides a superb menu in a bustling and trendy venue within the beautiful Ocala civic square district. The food is fresh and delicious. Just be prepared to wait to get in to this very popular eatery. The only reason this wasn't 5 stars was the server's blase attitude.

Mother's Day 2022⚘ It was my 1st time visiting this restaurant. It wasn't crowded. The atmosphere was nice and serene. My daughter treated me to a couple of great drinks and an appetizer. The staff was very accommodating. I will visit again. Awesome experience!

Harry's.....Cajun kick with a refined retro twist. We've been in the Harry's habit for many years. Always at the Lakeland location. Birthday parties, anniversaries, holidays, etc. Oh, and just regular eating days, too! LOL So, it made sense to hit Harry's of Ocala for Mother's Day! Even though my Fav Fab One isn't my mother, she is mom to two beautiful daughters. It was fun treating her to another meal in her honor. It was Just the Two of Us, like Bill Withers used to sing. We arrived early, first ones at the door with a few others, waiting to feast at noon. Sitting in a very cozy booth near a window, our Harry's wishes would be granted by the very capable 'Nina', or Janina. She proved to be the perfect skipper for this seafood sojourn. Let the festivities begin! First up, I ordered a cup of the She Crab Soup. I'm here to say that was THE BEST version of this delectable soup that I've ever supped! Deeeeee-licious! Next, we both shared a heaping helping of Harry's terrific Fried Green Tomatoes. Absolutely perfect. The crunchy cornflake crust complimenting the tomatoes with the help of a drizzled Chipotle aioli and Feta cheese. Dang! Now here comes our entrees. You cannot go to New Orleans without digging into some Jambalaya. And likewise, I cannot go to Harry's without jumping into some. That is precisely what I ordered. Fab One got the aptly named French Market Pasta. My Jambalaya was Ça c’est bon, as usual! Sweet AND spicy with that wonderful ocean catch aroma. And they give you a HUGE portion as my photo will attest. Fab One's pasta dish was a zesty Zydeco of shrimp, chicken, spinach & bacon swimming in a creamy pool of parmesan and basil. I'll wrap up by saying this Harry's in Horse Country finished in First place all the way around! A Triple Crown win!

The food was good. We will definitely return. I had 2 people with me who commented about the waiter being somewhat arrogant and unfriendly.

Went to Harry's for drinks and appetizers. I was told that their green Fried tomatoes were delicious. I have not had fried green tomatoes since I was a kid. So I was excited to try them. We all know that I have a thing about water. So they get a 2 👍🏽 up just for having filtered water and bottled water. I had green fried tomatoes, crabcakes, and Lobster dip. 🦞 My food was delicious. My drink🍹 was strong but not too strong. My server was on point. She continue to check on us to make sure we had everything we needed.

This was an awesome date night! It was our first time but it exceeded all expectations. The hostess was very friendly and sat us where the server was excellent she said. Our server was Kolby and she did not disappoint. She kept our drinks filled and was very attentive to us the whole time. She also gave us her honest opinion about the food choices when we asked. The sign outside says Christmas in July get a $30 extra gift card when you buy a $100 card. We said let’s wait and see how the food was before we buy it, but we bought the gift cards because the food was amazing! The alcoholic beverages were also very delicious. We cannot wait to go back!

I always love Harry’s. It’s consistent and they have several locations so there’s one close by always. This most recent time we didn’t get served the bread and garlic butter I love. Not sure if they don’t have it anymore or our server just didn’t give it to us. Anywho, amazing as usual. Jambalaya always hits the spot and the seafood creole always is more than expected. Trust me it’s worth it. Just go

The waitress Melanie is the reason I only gave a 4 Star Review! She possessed a "nice/nasty" attitude. I must admit, she was attentive to a certain extent, however she made us feel rushed by the amount of times she came back to our table to ask if we were ready to order. Especially considering that we had already ordered two Starters & soft drinks. We must've told her 3x's that we weren't ready to order. In the future, Melanie should consider a more softer approach when dealing with customers. In the food service and hospitality industry, you'll meet individuals from different walks of life. Food and drinks has proven to bring people together. It's how we make friends, nurture relationships, mend conflicts and feel gratitude for life. In my case, after experiencing a tragic death of a loved one earlier in the week & leaving a memorial on today, I needed this outing to get my mind off of things. Other than that, the food was AMAZING! For Starters we ordered Harry's Signature crab cakes and the Louisiana Fondeaux. The crab cakes were THE BEST I've ever had!! I was impressed by the virgin pina colada as well 🥰 Then we ordered from the "Bourbon Street Favorites" section on the menu. The Jambalaya & French Market Pasta. We also ordered the crispy chicken sandwich & the fried shrimp which were also tasty. The Smashed potatoes had a nice flavor but weren't as smashed as my friends would've like.

Great food with just a small amount of spice and plenty of saucy goodness. Sweet cocktails, not super strong. Lots of options on the menu. It’s a bit loud in the restaurant and has a chain restaurant feel to it, but good overall. No problems with service.

This was our first visit to this place. Very busy and we waited at the bar for our table. The bar area was very noisy but the bartenders were very friendly. The food was very good. We had the fried green tomatoes for an appetizer. There were four in our party and all of our meals were very good and the service was good.

The bartender was very friendly. She made us piña coladas and they were absolutely delicious 😋 We ordered fried shrimp and fries. The food was good but the ketchup tasted a little weird.

We picked Harry’s Seafood Bar & Grille for a quick lunch when passing thru Ocala. I was happy to find this Cajun themed restaurant. We also see they have a location in St. Augustine. We will check it out when our food craving is on Cajun flavors!

First time at Harry’s. We ordered the fried fish tacos, crusted grouper, fried green tomatoes, and a pasta dish with shrimp and chicken. The happy hour old fashions were not that good and the pasta dish was just ok. The fish tacos were good but the fish wasn’t seasoned, but the grouper and fgt’s were excellent. The service was average, kind of slow, and the waitress didn’t seem happy.

Had a great experience tonight with the quality of service and the food was outstanding. Clean and well lit dining area. Joe was our server and id recommend him everytime. 10/10 would definitely recommend to friends and family.

We stopped by this gem on Father’s Day on our way home to KY from FL . The food is perfection! The absolute best Cajun restaurant that we’ve ever been to. Cajun is our thing so don’t rest on this place! You will not be disappointed! Pictured is Cajun redfish crusted crab and a side of red beans and rice. Boudin balls and dipping sauce not pictured was amazing as well.

We had Lunch at Harry's Seafood, July, 2023. They were not overly busy when we showed up. This is the first time we have tried when they were not crowded and out the door. Although we never tried lunch time before. We sat and had a nice window seat with a view. Our food came out fairly quick. The food was good. I had the Jambalaya and it was good. The wife also enjoyed her meal. Our server did a good job. Harry's being an older building with high ceilings, was fairly loud. But not drastically so. The prices didn't break the bank either. The food probably should have been rated at 4.5 stars. But that's not an option. Either way, Harry's Seafood, Bar & Grille were pretty good and worth a visit.

EDIT: it was my husband's fault. He lost the container with the grit cake. We found it under the car seat. Eat here! The food is phenomenal, especially French baked scallops!! Normally, we love the food. We were visiting from out of town and wanted to order online. We could only do that through door dash or some other delivery service. We wanted to pick the order up, so we had to use Door Dash. We picked the order and didn't realize we were missing items into we got to our hotel. We spent over $65 for two meals and an extra side. The extra side--the grit cake--was missing. We got a random piece of cold bread. This was our anniversary/birthday meal that we've waited for and been excited about, and we're disappointed.

First time visit. Nice rustic look in the middle of town. Seem to be steady customers in and out while there. I had the steak and shrimp with asparagus and baby potatoes. Half of the potatoes weren't fully cooked, so they were hard and raw in the middle. Need to work on that for the price. My waitress Kryslin was outstanding with service and conversation.

Awesome place with great seafood and steak thats busy all the time. Very Crowded and although not enough for a Doggie Bag, their portions are just right to finish. I got the Blackned Mahi Mahi, V got Porter House Steak and MJ got the Seafood Shrimp Platter. Drinks were good. Go by 8pm

While visiting the area I dined here a couple of times. Every time was great! The cocktails were strong. The service is kind and quick. I think we may have eaten the entire menu between my guest and myself. The only thing we tried and didn’t like was the way the cook prepared the collard greens. Something was off because I love collards.

Harry’s is always a great option. The daily happy hour is awesome and the food is consistently amazing. The bread seems to have changed since our last visit but the garlic butter was still 10/10. Jazzy Shrimp were awesome, not too spicy. THE CRAB CRUSTED REDFISH ROYALE IS THE BEST! and the bananas foster for dessert 😍 will always recommend!

The food is delicious! There are variaty the plates with New Orleans sauson. You can choose pasta or rice when ordering jambalaya. It's faster costume service. The restaurant is nice!

If you like Louisiana INSPIRED food then this is a great place. I wouldn't necessarily say it's NoLa "style" but I can see where the inspiration is drawn. We ordered the boudin balls as an appetizer, they were good just a bit over-fried. The gumbo had no flavor other than cayenne pepper sadly. I love gumbo and this just wasn't it. The she crab soup however was delicious! Very lobster bisque-like and good flavor. Main courses were the fried shrimp and grouper for my husband and the crab cakes with cajun rice for me. His shrimp and grouper were a good size and the batter tasted good also. My crab cakes were good but since I found two fish bones my guess is they either use fish to save on money or somehowbones fell in the crab mix before forming? Not really sure, disappointing but over all the flavor was good. Portion sizes are reasonable, too! Enough to take some food home. The cajun rice had clumps of plain white rice so it was not as expected. Dessert was the oreo "beignets". Delicious but not really a beignet. More like a fried oreo from the fair, still delicious though! It can do without the heavy sugar glaze. I'd suggest powdered sugar like traditional beignets and a light drizzle pf the chocolate. The atmosphere is nice with jazz in the background and the historic feel of the interior and exterior is really beautiful. I would return but would keep in mind the expectation of real New Orleans style food is not what is served here, at least not the evening we went, which is a bummer considering the founders are from LA.
