What a great find. Forget driving to Toronto when you can go to Harpo's. The beef tenderloin was the best I have had. The King crab was amazing. we thouroughly enjoyed our meal and will be back for sure.
You need to pick and choose a good time to visit Harpo's. the food is excellent with a variety of choices. Avoid special Occasion's such as valentines day, they shrink their menu down to 4 or 5 items and push you in and out the door. Bring your Visa!
We were actually there with a group of about 16 and the food was incredible. The Prime Rib is thick and cooked precisely how we wanted it. The other menu choices included a chicken dish and also a fish choice. To my knowledge everyone loved their food. The service was a little bit too quick; felt a little rushed if anything; but very attentive. The pickle tray that is served before the meal lacks creativity, quality and quantity for a restaurant of this calibre; and they would be better served to provide a more varied and hearty offering. But we didn't go for the pickles. We would definately return; over and over.
Always and I mean always the prime rib is great. I don't know about the rest because, that's all we ever order. We have been eating at Harpo's for over 10 years. The garlic bread is great too.
Our waitress was great and friendly. The overall ambience in Harpos is quite nice as well. The pressentation of the meals is done extremely well. It took quite a while yesterday to get the food. My guess was, that there was a shortage of chefs. The quality, even though the meals are presented very well, is just average and therefore, since Harpos charges higher prices than Downtown Toronto fine dining restaurants, not acceptable. I had a Frutti di Mari pasta dish. Any family restaurant will serve you the same at 60% of the price, a larger portion on top of it. As a dessert, Harpos serves some caramel cake, which comes from the same source, where IGA buys there's. Bottom line, Harpos is way overpriced for just average food quality.
