Harper's Restaurant and BarAlways Fantastci!The food is always delicious,simple, tasty, fresh and inventive. The bartender is an artist. We have been coming here since it opened. We have celebrated birthdays and graduations, we have brought relatives from across the country, we have brought friends from the city, we came here when our power was out during the Hurricane, we come here for a midweek date night and double dates on Saturday nights. But no matter what the reason, the time of week or the time of year, Harpers is consistently a winner. My personal favorites: crispy duck leg, the brussell spout salad (when in season), the burger, the trout, the mussels and the Mack and Jack. My son swears by the flat iron steak and chocolate torte. But really everything is a winner5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMConsistently greatFabulous cocktails and excellent food. Noisy, so it was a bit hard for our group of 7 to really talk, but by 9pm or so, it had quieted down. I've been here a few times, and I always love it. Portions seem to be larger than in the past. Try the Rockefeller cocktail (or almost any of their cocktails), the mushroom toast, the trout, potato in duck fat, flatiron steak. Nice chocolate torte for dessert. I've brought kids here and they do a good mac and cheese and other options for children.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMDiverse menu. Attentive service.Diverse menu. Attentive service.

My guests were my son and his family who live in Los Angeles, and are accustomed to dining at the top restaurants there.

Excellent service...very accommodating..3/24/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent talented kitchen.Excellent talented kitchen. Noise level on a Saturday night is opressive.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWe return to Harper's timeWe return to Harper's time after time for our own grown-up dinners for two, or for taking out the kids with the grandparents. For family meals, eat EARLY and ask to be seated in the room "around the corner". Otherwise you sit in the front room right near the entrance which is cramped drafty and three times noisier than everywhere else. The wait staff is patient and puts in extra effort to make all the adults (even when serving our eccentric and picky extended family). Wish though they would be a bit more kid-friendly: would it really be so difficult to chop a few tomatoes to serve my first-grader? Really? You know there are tomatoes in the kitchen:)3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWe went here for restaurantWe went here for restaurant week and received a great value. The food was nicely prepared and very fresh. I has grilled fish, a lovely appetizer salad with apples, and a yummy panne cotta for dessert. Service was good - attentive and pleasant. Had a blended red wine that was very good.
The restaurant is divided down the center w/ bar dining on one side and just dining on the other. I thought the atmosphere on the bar side was more pleasant, better lighting, felt more festive. Atmosphere on the other side of the wall was dull, dark and not warm enough. Overall though, a very good experience.3/14/2013 12:00:00 AMReally pleased with Harper'sWe've been meaning to go to Harper's for some time because of the positive reviews. Finally, we went for brunch and had a lovely surprise. The dishes were inventive and delicious with lots of clean, fresh ingredients. Poached eggs with assorted mushrooms was so much more than just that. There's a neat list of beers, wines and interesting cocktails and (now this is pretty important for brunch) really good coffee. The service was perfect, friendly yet professional. Looking forward to returning for dinner.2/24/2013 12:00:00 AM
