Decided to eat at the bar top at Harry's this evening for dinner. I made a reservation but they weren't busy when I got there. I stood at the hostess podium for a few moments while the hostesses talked amongst themselves at the other end of the restaurant. One made eye contact with me and then continued her conversation. A different hostess came in from out side and came over to help me out. I sat at the bar and started browsing the menu. Shortly after the bartender, Mason came over and asked if he could get me anything. I ordered an Adult Juice Box as I continued to look at their offerings. The restaurant had an open concept with large glass doors that were open to the pool deck, they also had out side tables that you could opt to sit at, with the kitchen opposite of the bar. I started with the Pinchos Shrimp & Barbados Wings. Both were DELICOUS! Mason was extremely attentive and friendly - he continually checked on everyone at the bar & assisted guests at the walk up window that was pool side. Mason ensured that everyone seated at the bar was topped off on their drinks may it be a cocktail or just water, he ensured our glasses were filled. I ordered another Adult Juice Box and the Jerk Chicken & Mango Salad. Everything was so delicious, and the service from Mason was great. Though my first impression when walking in was to be ignored by the staff much like my previous night at another hotel restaurant - Mason turned my experience around. So thanks, Mason you are a gem and they are lucky to have you! read more

Stopped by Harry's Poolside Bar & Grill at the Rosen Centre and had a mixed experience. The wings were cooked perfectly -- crispy, flavorful, and definitely the highlight. Unfortunately, the drink didn't match at all. It was watered down and pretty much flavorless. Service was also disappointing. Our waitress kept disappearing, and it didn't seem like it was because she was busy. At one point, other staff couldn't even locate her, which made things frustrating. Overall, the food had potential, but between the drink and service, it honestly would've been better to just order to-go. read more

I ate at Harry's for lunch while waiting for cheer competition results. We walked right in and we were given a table immediately. We ordered the Mexican street corn dip for an appetizer, and it was good but it had too much mayo. For an entree, I ordered the chimichurri salad with chicken instead of steak. It was a large portion and it came with two large tostones. Our waitress was a little dry and rude, but she was quick and got our order right. I was very impressed with how fast they were bringing the food out considering they also served the entire pool area. The dining room was a little hot because they had the doors open, but they had fans on so it wasn't horribly hot. For a poolside restaurant, it was good and I wouldn't hesitate to eat here again. read more

Decent or ok at best. The price outweighs the value of the meal. You're mainly paying for the convenience of being onsite if you're staying at the Rosen Center or attending a conference there. I had a piña colada and the chicken and shrimp dinner. The piña colada was lackluster but they generously filled it to the brim. It was filled with chunks of ice. After every other sip my straw got clogged with chunks of ice. Not a smooth drink by any means. That made it hard and time consuming to drink. Plus it tasted like a big cup of flavored ice chips with a healthy shot of rum in it. I could live without it. I've had way better before. The shrimp and chicken dinner had good flavor overall. The chicken was a little dry but still edible. It was a decent portion but not generous by any means. I came here on a Wednesday night around 9pm and there were several groups of guests down there. As a result, I sat quickly but service was quite slow and delayed. Sadly, it doesn't seem like they cap serving anyone alcohol so a couple of the groups got drunk, loud and quite obnoxious. The table next to me was shouting, cursing and discussing x-rated things in mixed company. Stay clear of here and especially eating poolside if you want a peaceful meal. read more

Last week (2/22/26) I was in Orlando at the Rosen Centre for a conference. Meals are often a challenge for me as I am Gluten Free (GF). Harry's Poolside Bar & Grill did not disappoint over my five day stay at the hotel. I had lunch and dinner multiple times over my stay. They have a dedicated GF menu and although a bit nervous during my first order, not once did I get sick. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and very accommodating. It is always a great experience when food is not your biggest obstacle when traveling. The atmosphere was great with music playing in the background without being disturbing. read more

Stayed at the Rosen Centre while in town for a conference. Ordered the wings. The automatically comes on the side, but there is a glaze of some sort on the wings. Didn't really care for the sauce that was on the side, but my friend did like it. The wings were tasty, and I could've used more of the glaze that was on them. The Yucca fries were a good change from French fries. And the Pineapple Mimosa hit the spot after a long morning of training. read more

We stopped in for lunch yesterday. We started with the conch fritters - they had very hard pieces in the conch fritters that could not be chewed. I had the steak salad - it was a NY strip that was extremely fatty. The salad was plentiful, and the dressing was decent. The two pieces of tostones that were served with it were great. My friends thought their burger and the triplets sandwich were just ok. My friend really enjoyed the Pina colada but for a pretty penny (20$!) read more

We've stayed at the Rosen Centre several times before, but this was my husband's and I first visit to Harry's Poolside Bar & Grill. The restaurant is conveniently located inside the hotel, offering both indoor and outdoor (poolside) seating. We chose indoor dining, which was comfortable and nicely cooled. Our server, Jonathan, was very pleasant and friendly, though he seemed quite busy and was a bit forgetful at times. We ordered chicken wings, conch fritters, Harry's burger (which should've come with yuca fries but arrived with French fries instead), Mojo Chicken, and gambas al ajillo. For drinks, I had sweet tea and my husband had Mountain Dew. Lastly, we wanted to try something different and had pumpkin cheese cake for dessert. In my opinion, it was ok. I'll stick to the traditional NY cheesecake next time. Despite the small mix-up and delays, the food itself was delicious! Everything was flavorful and well-prepared. Overall, we had a great time celebrating our unity as husband and wife and enjoy our visit. We would definitely come back again. read more

Poolside Bar & Grill at the Rosen Center Hotel. Thankful for the outdoor seating overlooking the oversized pool because the inside of the hotel restaurant area was absolutely freezing They have frozen drinks, on tap beer and almost a full bar. Service was good! Shared the "Oh My" Gorgonzola Dip for an appetizer and it was absolutely delish. It can with Roti bread for dipping which tasted freshly baked. Only suggestion would be to include more roti as it was definitely not enough for the generous portion of dip that was served. My fiancé had the Curaçao Fried White Fish which was super fresh, mildly flavored but the mango remoulade was sweet, fresh and flavorful! I really enjoyed my Mojo Chicken & Gambas al Ajillo. The chicken was tender, the shrimp were cooked perfectly, the mango salsa with the Queso fresco was the ideal balance of salty and sweet. For dessert we shared the Flan de Queso. It was thick and creamy and the berries added a nice crunch. Definitely my favorite option of the onsite dining options and reasonably proced read more

This was my first time eating at Harry's. The service was exceptional from the moment I entered Harry's. I tried the "Oh My" Gorgonzola Dip Gorgonzola Cheese, Caramelized Onions, Garlic, Roasted Tomatoes, Artichokes, Roti Bread. Which I loved the flavors of the dip with the warm bread. My entree was Little Havana Sliders Roasted Pork, Grilled Onions, Garlic Mojo Served on Mini Sweet Island Buns. The bread was soft, the pork full of flavor and moist. The side was Mojo Yucca fries that we super crispy. For dessert I had the absolute best Tres Leches Martini Sponge Cake soaked in Trio of Milk, Whipped Cream, Pistachios. For being a Poolside Grill it was nice and quiet for lunch service. The music was low so you could enjoy a conversation with your friends. Harry's is located at the Rosen Centre. Perfect place for lunch! read more

Two things win at Harry's poolside and that is the pork sliders and the service here. The bartender Rah (I think that was his name) was superb and made every effort to get our requests in. It was a busy night and I was glad for his composure and hospitality. That alone gave the extra star. Now for the food, buttery and fluffy is the pork slider that just melts in your mouth. I loved it. Now compare that with the chicken it was like falling down a bumpy slide. The chicken was dry, the pineapple kind of worked and also throws your taste off a bit. The sweet potato fries is a nice option to have. Located inside the Rosen hotel it was convenient if you had a conference there (like I did) and wanted to grab drinks or a quick bite. I felt like the restaurant, and the hotel, took inspiration from the show Miami Vice in the 80s as you can tell by the neon glow in my pictures. Fun if you like that. read more

Doesn't deserve even one star! I would never go here again. For starters, we waited 15 minutes at the table before even being acknowledged by the staff. He took our order, it came wrong, then we had to wait another 10 minutes to get his attention that it was wrong. Food was cold. When we told him we were ready for the check, he never came back. Waited 20 minutes, then finally walked up to the host station and told him we're leaving. Finally got the check. Beware! read more

Food was amazinggggggg. Service was great! And the area is beautiful. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the bartender refused to serve drinks because my Indiana ID "does not look like a Florida ID" read more

While staying at the hotel, I ate here twice. Both times food and drinks were good and service was mostly great. The second time the bartender, which we were told was new, had trouble with consistency. Same drinks tasted different. Over all, well done. On con was there was a family, 7-8 people, sitting my the pool area wanted food and they kept interrupting the servers, one tried to "pull" a server away from the table he was helping, to get what they needed. This is a great place to sit outside and eat while the kids swam. I get that. Being rude to the staff and the restaurant guests is not okay. A manager should have stepped in to handle the situation. 03.01.2024 read more

Decided to go to this restaurant because my dad saw a dish on their bite30 menu he wanted to try the Jamaican jambalaya, went tonight and were told they weren't participating for dinner because they had a Father's Day brunch today during the day. Very disappointing after driving all the way there specifically because my dad thought their bite30 menu looked good. I cannot review their food since we left because they weren't making the dish my dad wanted. read more

Found this restaurant because it was participating in the bite 30 . Honestly thought the food was going to be good but from appetizer to dessert I was disappointed. The food was very bland and cold . The friend plantains we could still taste the fryer oil on them . The service was alright the food came out fast .I asked to be seated outside was not bad and not loud . read more

I hadn't been to this restaurant in a while. I always loved the poolside vibe. Today I came in with a couple colleagues from work. We started off our meal with some conch fritters. They were very good. There was a lot of conch in each bite and I liked how they were fried hard. I had the burger and sweet potato fries for my entree. They were okay. I should've probably got a seafood dish instead. read more

It exceeded my expectations. The steak salad with tostones was beautiful and the steak perfectly prepared as ordered medium rare. The garlic yucca frites were also perfectly prepared but I think should be served the aolie. Much like yucca Frites, the "triplets" meat sandwich should have some type of garnish or spread. It was rather dry and stacking the meat to impress in the middle of the sandwich means that the ends have no meat at all. Service was attentive without being pretentious at all. It was pricey, $70 before tip for one appetizer, two meals and one beer. It's a very basic, poolside cafe/bar. read more

It was a week night and we got back to the hotel at like 9:30pm. Restaurant was closing. Only app, salad, burger and sandwiches available. The bartender took our orders and he was very nice. The food was ok. The sweet potato fries and yucca fries were both pretty good. The wings was flavorful and tender. The Gorgonzola dip felt like poorly melted nacho cheese. The shrimp pinchos was fresh but the avocado paste was bitter. read more

Met up with family in town for the volleyball tournament. Since the teams were staying at the Rosen Centre Hotel, we decided to grab drinks in the hotel and Harry's Poolside Bar & Grill was only bar open at that particular time. I believe everyone was very happy with our selection to pop into Harry's! It's a very relaxed setting overlooking the hotel patio & pool, with amiable staff and good drinks. While the house specialties looked very inviting a settled for a Mojito, made with Bacardi. It was delicious, made with the right amount of Bacardi. They had a team dinner later that evening so we selected a few appetizers to tide everyone over. My eyes lit up immediately when I saw they served conch fritters. The little conch balls were full of meat and the dipping sauce had just the right amount of tang. Next came the chicken wings. We asked for more flats and the kitchen was very accommodating. For them, I thought the sauce didn't have quite the same 'ZING' as the conch fritter sauce did, but the wings were tasty. Lastly we ordered the friend calamari. They were large, crispy and the squid was not chewy, which means it was cooked perfectly. Again, the dipping sauce was underwhelming but they were still gobbled up...sauceless. read more

Everytime I come here,I have the best service. Hector always makes sure I'm happy and he and his staff have the best customer service . I've tried the salmon, sweet potato fries, jambalaya, chicken and rice soup, and Cuban wings. Every single item I just named is amazing. I was sharing info with someone on the elevator and she told me the steak was amazing, so I'll be trying that next. Everything is made fresh and is amazingly good. The sides are great too and the drinks are great as well. I only drink Pepsi...but you know. Great view , outside eats, patio fun, and dine in as well. Great spot. Eat here!

The people that work here are super nice. The service is excellent. The food is a solid OK. I definitely won't be coming here again. I would only eat here for the convenience of eating at the hotel or near the convention center. We ordered the jambalaya and it came with a side of friend plantains that were good.

I had lunch here while attending a conference at the Rosen Centre and the food was ok. I was seated fairly quickly which was great especially because the restaurant was fairly busy due to multiple conferences. I was impressed by the menu initially because the food seems to go beyond just your standard burgers and fries. I ordered the Turks Islands Chicken Sliders with a side of sweet potato fries. The sliders had grilled pineapple on it which was actually refreshing. However, the chicken was dry and pretty bland. The sweet potato fries were also ok- probably would've actually been happier with regular fries but that wasn't an option. I probably would not eat here again unless seriously pressed for time read more

Was at the Rosen for the conference and decided to dine in the hotel. Ordered the braised beef thing. So the braising was done to perfection. Beef was beautifully flavored and tender. The vegetables were nicely cooked but did not lose their own flavor and texture completely. The rice and beans were good. Very nice presentation I must say. Usually this type of food comes separately on a plate. But this was placed very conveniently. Btw the oil from the braising that was on the plate was yum. The only disappointment was the fried plantain. Dry, no flavor at all, and chewy! Hence the 4 stars. Great ambience and service by the pool! Definitely visit. read more

Let me start by saying the service was excellent, but the food quality for the price was not it.

We stopped in for a couple of drinks and an appetizer. We got the Gorgonzola dip which was served in a pretty large bowl with only maybe 6 pieces of bread. There was a ton of dip leftover so we asked for more bread. Even with the additional 5 or so pieces of bread there was a ton of dip leftover. Maybe consider serving similar bread to dip ratios. I had the coconut pina colada and it was delicious. With two of the coladas and 2 other mixed drinks my husband had along with our dip the bill was over $70. A total rip off. The bartender was attentive and friendly, but I would definitely take my money elsewhere. read more

Came to Harry's for a dinner with my co-workers during one day of Grace Hopper 2019. I called ahead to make a reservation for 8, worried that there'd be no tables. Making a reservation was fine, and once we all arrived at its location inside a hotel, the Rosen, which is very close to the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC), we realized that there was nothing to worry about. It was in a restaurant and fairly empty. So we were seated immediately, although we were 6 minutes late, at the not-poolside area... we were in an inside area but still weren't completely enclosed in a building. The steel drum music that was playing really put the cherry on top of the attempted ~poolside island tiki vibe~. Once we sat down, we were soon approached by our server of the night who was this dirty blonde girl in a hawaiian t-shirt. We were slow to decide what to get so we sent her off to "give us a few minutes", and once she came back, we ordered two of one of the sweeter cocktails (something with rum..?). One was for Kat, and the other would be shared by me and Laura. Stephanie asked to try a specific chardonnay before deciding, and was able to. Our server asked to check all our ids, and after looking at mine, she let me know that we were the same age and only 4 days apart. Lol, I don't know why that was so interesting to me. It made me feel kinda weird. Stephanie chose to go with the chardonnay that she tried, and our cocktails were way too sweet and had very little alcohol. It was slightly disappointing. I ended up getting the crab cake sandwich because the server swayed me by saying the crab cakes were "made in house". Ok. I had the choice between yucca fries or sweet potato fries. Because I'd never had yucca fries, I asked the server what she liked more. She very helpfully described how yucca fries are - they're denser and starchier. I was intrigued. I ordered it with yucca fries. Our food came out like 10 minutes later maybe. There were few yucca fries; maybe 6 or 7, but they were huge. I was a little brat and asked if they had any sauces like ketchup, or something, and ended up getting these two unique sauces, one thicker like a "chipotle mayo" or something, and the other more vinegar-y like chimmichurri... both were delicious and i used both as dip and as a topping on my sandwich. The yucca fries were also delicious and I ended up finishing those and not my sandwich, which was very mediocre. I also tried some flan, which we all shared. It was overall good but overpriced. read more
