We haven’t been to this location since it was Pieces of Eight back in the 80!s. Harbor House is such a great reimagining of the space. The decore and layout is elegant and energetic with the open kitchen concept well executed. Service was above and beyond, with the kitchen and staff offering to make a perfectly executed off-menu item (shrimp alfredo) for my daughter on a busy Saturday night. I asked for a menu change as well, and they happily agreed. The food was all A+, with all 6 people greatly enjoying their meals and wine selections.
