    Great Hazy on tap.

    Love this spot. Amazing mussels in a coconut sauce with fennel and entrees that never disappoint. Fish Sandwich and Fish Tacos are family favorites but they are all great.

    Harbor House in Northport NY on Main Street not far from the John Engeman theatre, has the best fish meals. It's one of the smaller venues and just as we came in the table for 2 was available then all seat's except for 2 at the bar , were taken. The door has an amazing wood carved and hand painted ship on it. Service is good. I look for this place when in town. It should be added to those - 10 best restaurants list. Check it out for yourself.

    What a hidden gem! Really good! We went to another restaurant at first but there's no seat, so we decided to give this place a try. Very friendly staff, very accommodating with young kids. Food is extremely good! We had chicken fingers & pasta for the kids, omg chicken is so good! I wish I can order a portion for myself, lol. My husband got the burger, superb! I got the lobster roll, super good! Definitely recommend! Very nice inside too!

    While spending a lovely day in Northport--walking the docks, admiring the boats, and strolling through the quaint town--we found ourselves looking for a new dinner spot. We're longtime fans of the Purple Elephant (a haven for dairy-free and vegan diners), but decided to branch out. After some casual menu browsing, Harbor House caught our eye and we were intrigued enough to give it a try. Atmosphere & Service: Harbor House has a cozy, welcoming interior with a warm neighborhood feel, and additional outdoor seating for those who prefer to dine al fresco. We opted to sit inside, where we were promptly greeted by the friendly and attentive staff. At check-in, I let the hostess know about a dairy allergy in our party. She immediately reassured us that the kitchen was flexible--most dishes could be modified, sauces swapped, mashed potatoes subbed out for salad, and more. That peace of mind sealed the deal. The Meal: We began with warm, fresh bread accompanied by three spreads: pesto, olive oil, and butter. All three were delicious, and the bread itself was soft and served warm--a great start. For appetizers, we chose: * Saffron Rice Balls (peppers, mozzarella, vodka sauce): A pleasant surprise! The texture was perfectly sticky and satisfying, and the flavor was rich without being heavy. * Warm Spinach Salad (spinach, walnuts, apples, pickled onions, goat cheese, bacon dressing): We subbed the dressing for a house vinaigrette and had the cheese on the side. The salad was well-balanced and refreshingly light. For entrees: * I had the Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken Breast (stuffed with spinach and mozzarella, served with a cognac demi-glace, mashed potatoes, and Mediterranean snow peas). It was flavorful and filling--the demi-glace was tasty, and the snow peas were a nice, crisp touch. * My husband tried the Salmon Burger (with avocado, red onion, and a side salad), which was just "okay". * Our kids ordered the Seafood Penne Bowl (a huge bowl of penne pasta with shrimp, clams, and mussels in a tomato cream sauce) and the Kids' Burger, which was a basic burger. A minor hiccup occurred with the kids' burger--it was served without a bun. The server explained that the brioche bun contained dairy, but this wasn't mentioned when we ordered. While we appreciated the allergy consideration, it would have been helpful to have been informed earlier or offered an alternative bun. Eventually, they provided a piece of the pre-meal bread as a substitute, which resolved things, but the communication could have been smoother. Final Thoughts: The food was satisfying, portions were generous (we left with leftovers!), and the overall experience was positive. While Harbor House may not yet rival the allergy-friendliness of places like the Purple Elephant, it shows a genuine effort to accommodate dietary needs. With a bit more clarity in communication around allergens, it could easily become a regular go-to.

    We appreciated much the staff for allowing us to come here earlier than our reserved time. It must be difficult to saved a spot for a party of 12 but they made it possible. The place is a small but the staff has big hearts. We enjoyed our time here. Though it took a while to get our order ready, we understand because they want to serve it all at the same time. The free bread in a basket comes with great dipping sauces. Each one has no complain for what they had. I basically enjoyed my soup, sandwich and drinks. Serving size of the meal is huge and can be shared by two. Too late to know. They did not mind us asking boxes for our leftovers. Looking for parking is a challenge but we made it here. We were surprised to know at the end that the birthday cake for our celebrant was on the house. That was so nice! Great staff and service. I recommend this place.

    Decided to try a new spot around Northport and we were in the mood for seafood. Around Northport pier area, there are ample seafood restaurant choices but given the review, we decided to try. It was very easy to make a reservation over the phone for 2 ppl 7pm. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and we sat indoor. For appetizer, we got the mussels for $15 which was absolutely delish swimming in the creamy sauce. For entree, I got the salmon burger with fries $21. I will admit the salmon was very fresh and not breaded at all. It came in a nice brioche bun with ranch sauce on the side. The fries were freshly made. My wife got the filet grouper with snow peas and risotto for $42. One complaint is they should have remove the ends of the snow peas as it was quite stringy. The grouper was quite salty with the sauce and plus the capers which added to the saltiness. Food wise, it was a mixed reaction overall for the evening. We did enjoy the wait staff and their attentiveness. Based on last nite's visit, we will give this a strong 3 stars.

    This was our first time eating at the Harbor House. We decided to eat here based on reviews and its proximity to the theater. We scored a great window seat in this small but quaint establishment. The food was very good and our waiter was very friendly and accommodating. This is a nice little spot to have dinner and see a show afterwards.

    Cute spot right on Main Street. I opted for the lobster ravioli while my husband got the burger. Both were perfectly cooked and tasty. The service was attentive and friendly. There were many things on the menu that sounded good so I would return next time I'm in the area.

    Cute spot right on Main Street in Northport. We picked this spot because they said they were able to accommodate 8 adults and 8 kids. Restaurant is small but we were all on one side so not an issue. Let me start with the positives. Food was amazing and fresh. Everything we ate was good. I ordered the fish tacos and they were amazing. The baked oysters were also very good. I'm still thinking about them! With that being said, I don't think this place might be for kids or maybe a lot of kids. We ordered the kids meals before we even ordered the apps which was mostly chicken tenders and fries. Their meal didn't come for about an hour and 15 mins. The kids were getting cranky since they were hungry. Also loved the location since afterwards we just walked to the ice cream cafe, and then the playground. I would come again but with a smaller group or no kids.

    Stopped by for a drink so review is based on that, didn't try food but it looked good & people eating there were definitely enjoying it. The young lady serving at the bar was very friendly & I had quite an enjoyable conversation with people seated at the bar. The vibe is relaxed & I get the feeling there are a lot of regulars which is great! My drink was called salty dog, gin with sparkling grapefruit was very nice! I will get back to try the food!

    Had dinner here on a Friday night with no reservations, my husband and I were with our dog so we needed to be seated outside and there was no wait thankfully. They had a cute little outdoor alley seating. It's very private too! I had the ahi tuna with mashed potatoes which was ok and my husband had the burger which was also good and we had the creme brûlée to finish which was the best part of our meal paired with the Sauvignon blanc! They charge 3.50% more on card if you don't pay with cash!

    Do you have any vegetarian options for dinner? I didn't see any on the menu.

    I believe the kitchen will accommodate as best as it can. It's a tiny restaurant but the food is great and freshly prepared. So, go ahead and ask.

    Since my review of a disappointing first experience at Birdie Bar, I have returned quite a few…read moretimes (largely because there aren't many options in area and the ease of parking), and have found some dishes to be excellent. This includes the olive oil cake, bbq pulled pork nachos, crispy Brussel sprouts, smash burger (although not consistent in size), and chicken picante. The restaurant is relatively new (just reached third year anniversary), so perhaps the kitchen needed more time to prepare dishes more consistently. For the most part the food now matches the social media hype. TIP: Others have recently noted slow service, incorrect orders. I have been visiting at the start of dinner service, and have not encountered this, so some of these issues may potentially be avoided by arriving before inexperienced service staff are overwhelmed. Most people will be seated on second floor which requires walking up a staircase. If special accommodation is needed I suggest informing restaurant in advance. There is some seating downstairs, but depending of time and day this area (bar) can get uncomfortably loud.

And made the 30+ Mile trip for something special. When we got there, the first thing you notice is the parking is atrocious; very few spots, and even dropping someone at the door and pulling out is difficult. Nonetheless, we managed and upon entering discovered the place was packed, ridiculously so. We stood around for 20 minutes (right next to an empty table for 8... just our number) while our wait staff tried to figure out where to put us. Finally the manager came out and told us to take the table. Super unorganized, and they don't take reservations. Make that make sense to me :/ Dinner was, at best, "adequate". Nothing to sing an opera about, frankly, coming from a family of accomplished cooks, our food is 100x better. Highlight was the chicken cutlet and penne ala vodka. I've never had such dry, crappy cutlets in all my life. Everything else was just "ok". The only saving grace was the prices were very reasonable. Had they been expensive on top of crappy I'd have blown my stack. After our mediocre dinner and dessert we paid our bill and left our usual 25% tip. My brother had to get the car and pull it up front (my dad has a walker) and our waitress came by and told us we HAD to leave because they were swamped and, "they needed the table". We had to struggle to get out the door which was packed with people (God forbid there was an emergency) and my dad had to wait, with his walker, in the rain under an overhang for 15 minutes until the car could pull up (my brother had to park down the road). Disgraceful, rude, and frankly, dangerous. So. If you like mediocre food at a reasonable price, and don't mind being packed into this little shithole where they ONLY accept cash... then by all means this is the place for you. Or you could drive up the road less than a quarter mile and go to Branzinos, where they run a restaurant that treats its customers like human beings, and not cash carrying cattle. You make the call. As for us? Never will go back. Ever.
