    The bar was excellent with a fine rye Manhattan. Knowledgeable bartenders. All was great, but I expected my elk steak to be a steak, not three medallions. The berry reduction somewhat overpowered the flavor of the elk. Good, but not what I call a steak. The bread pudding was outstanding! Fine service!

    Great date night spot. The service was excellent, and the food was unique and flavorful. The cigar lounge was also very inviting and quaint. We will be back!

    First visit to Harlow's and we loved it! Eclectic to be sure, but love the art deco vibe and the warm and friendly people. And the food was extremely tasty! A very diverse menu - we tried several different "Small Plates" and came away very impressed with the chef's creativity, the quality and the taste of each dish, and Jess our server was friendly and informative and did a great job. Then we wandered over and found the Cigar Lounge, where JJ treated us like VIPs and welcomed us to Harlow's newest "little gem." We will definitely be back soon!

    A gem! Loved the ambiance and the transformation to a time when internet didn’t exist. Allowing for great conversation and experience. Genuinely kind customer service, great music from past, food intentionally cooked to taste the flavors of quality ingredients rather than covering it up in salt and sugars. Fantastic overall!

    We love this spot due to the ambience/decor, and the drinks. They make great old fashions! The food portion is very small for the price you pay. Nonetheless, their food is super tasty. Great service too!

    We can't say enough great things about this place! Jessica was our server last night and she is always such a delight. Very polite, professional and very sweet personality. The food always comes out quickly with every detail correct. The temperature in the restaurant was perfect given the cold weather outside. The manager greeted us aa we left with a big smile. 20/10 rating.

    We have always enjoyed our visits to Harlows. I highly recommend this unique restaurant. Last night we celebrated our anniversary there and it was a wonderful dinner with specialty cocktails and a scrumptious dessert.
