    Love the Harlequin for its reliable drink, service, vibe, and location. It is one of our pre-theater dining locations that never disappoints. We happened to be there for happy hour and got a deal on oysters and a cocktail. All the food was quite good, the oysters, tartar, octopus, and pasta. Beef in the pasta was not as tender as we would have liked, but the rest of the meal was spot on. Wine by the glass offered a good Pinot and Malbec.

    Aaron was wait person, who explained everything From how to navigate the extensive menu to choosing different desserts for the party. Excellent tasting food presented beautifully in a dining room with larger than life bouquets of flowers.. a great experience in dining for special occasions especially when some in the party may have smaller or larger appetites. (3,4, or 5 course meals). The evening reminded us why this was one of our favorite restaurants of any city.
