    Key lime pie
    Cat N.

    This place was meh. I came here on one of the last days in town and I ordered for takeout. I ended up getting the following: 2 Tails- This dish included two broiled lobster tails that came with a side of fried shrimp. The lobster was good and it came with some butter. The fried shrimp was mediocre. It also came with some hush puppies which was okay. Choose Any Three- This dish was an option of any three choices. I got their fried scallop, fried clam strips, and crab cakes. The fried scallop didn't taste fresh and were bland. The fried clam strips were very chewy. The crab cakes was bland and didn't have much flavor. This also came with fries and I got coleslaw. The fries was very soggy. Not sure if its because I got it to go. The coleslaw was not memorable. Key Lime Pie- This was my least favorite because the ratio of cream to crust. It had too much cream and barely any crust. It didn't taste like key lime and was mostly just all bland cream. It had a little tart but not much. When I came to pick up everyone was really nice that worked there. The food was already ready for me. The restaurant was pretty busy and I had to wait a little to get my food since there were a lot of people picking up.

    This was honestly such a surprise! I haven't had Crystal River in at least a decade or more and I don't think I've ever had it here in Tallahassee. I came on a Monday afternoon and it was pretty full in terms of patrons. Hannah was our server and she was sweet and attentive. My blackened snapper was served on a bed of rice and I had green beans and a baked potato as my sides. They also come with two hush puppies. Everything was truly delicious. I also had an Arnold Palmer that was the perfect blend of lemonade and iced tea. I didn't have any room for dessert but definitely plan to be repeat customer very soon.

Cheesecake...caramel cheesecake with a blueberry compote and banana's foster over the top. Good Lord....best dessert I've ever had. Went back the next night. Redfish. Blackened. Incredible. Our waitress was fun and engaging. Not too fun though. The ambiance here is still tilted to upscale/finer dining. Definitely a date place if you need one. We ate there twice in a weekend ... so that is how good the food is.

    I was pleased to find that Harry's Seafood Bar and Grille was listed on Uber Eats as I searched for…read morerestaurants while visiting the city of Tallahassee. And its 4.4-star rating out of 600+ via Uber Eats was the assurance I needed that I would have a quality experience. Looking through the menu of Harry's, I took interest in and ended up ordering their fried grouper sandwich with Harry's collard greens, and a key lime pie, which both were items I had an interest in trying while visiting the city of Tallahassee. Whether it be Grubhub or now Uber Eats, I love ordering online because it is convenient. Much praise to the Uber Eats delivery driver, Dezi, for arriving with my order at a reasonable time, as well as meeting me in front of the hotel. And Dezi also confirmed that it was me grabbing the order, which I cannot thank her so much for. Once I retrieved my order, it was so hard to not smell it inside of the elevator while heading up to my hotel room. First, I want to say that I was satisfied with the presentation of what I ordered. However, I was not satisfied with the way it was placed inside of the bag, which led to the collard greens leaking slightly, and the cream of the lime pie being splattered around the container. Now my mouth salivated prior to taking my first bite of the grouper sandwich, which appeared big! It could have easily turned into the only meal I ate for the evening and I was not complaining about that. It tasted just as good as it appeared with the addition of tartar sauce which I put a whole glob of it on, tehehe. The grouper sandwich made me forget about the way my food was placed inside of the bag. After letting the grouper sandwich settle off my taste buds, I went for the collard greens, which I enjoyed outside of picking out the chunks of meat! There was a point while eating the collard greens, I said to myself "This is good!". If you love collard greens as much as I do, then I recommend Harry's collard greens, but keep in mind that it has meat chunks inside of it. Now, I saved the best for last, which was the key lime pie! Mm... It was basically a cheesecake in the form of lime pie! And oh my was it tasty! I would be lying if I said that I left some crumbs behind because it sure was satisfying. Okay, Harry's you have won over this traveler from the Midwest. Being that I had a great ordering experience, I would surely order from Harry's Seafood Bar and Grille again whether it be Uber Eats delivery or takeout whenever visiting the city of Tallahassee. Service: 4 | Ambiance: N/A | Food: 5 | Overall rating: 4 ~ Keep moving Forward ~ Thomas G

It's not exactly clean eating, but you do feel like you're eating real food and not some TVP & MSG concoction. Everything I've gotten here tastes good and comes in large portions. They have a big menu, and I like to try something new every time. The only thing I wouldn't reorder is the ribs because there just wasn't much meat. My favorite app is the spam musubi. My favorite entree is the seafood boil, but that's not something you would want to order unless you're feeding a family. For drinks, they have fountain drinks or canned "Hawaiian" options. The interior is bland but comfortable with pleasant music and clean bathrooms. Everything is served in to-go containers even if you're dining in. You can order ahead via their website but cannot pay ahead. Staff are very pleasant and helpful.

The salmon sashimi was fresh. Nothing to complain about. The black dragon roll was not very good and barely had any crab in it. Overall the food was average with the highlight being an appetizer. Combine this with the fact that it was $96 for these 4 items, I would only rate it 3 stars.

I was DISAPPOINTED. Just DISAPPOINTED. The food was NOT good and definitely NOT New Orleans. The food was downright horrible. Despite the inside appearance, the tacky décor and signs plastered all over the place, I really wanted to like this place, and it breaks my heart to have to write this review. I ordered two dinners. The 10-piece catfish strips with fries and and the 6-piece shrimp with hushpuppies at a total cost of $16.66. It took about 15 - 20 minutes to get my order. Everything tasted like it was fried in cooking oil that was beyond its life and needed to be changed. The catfish strips were small, overcooked, dark in color, dry, and had the flavor of burnt oil / grease. The shrimps were small, overcooked, dry, and tasted like it was cooked in burnt oil / grease. The fries were soggy and just like the fish and shrimp had a burnt taste to them. The hushpuppies were the only thing that was eatable and had great flavor. I only ate 2 pieces of the horrible catfish strips, 3 small shrimps, and a couple of the hushpuppies because that's all my stomach could only tolerate. New Orleans Seafood was a total let down. This may be a locally owned and operated small business, but my goodness, have some standards when it comes to restaurant appearance and food quality.
