I was surprised that the prices doubled, But I still think that this is one of my best and as long as they are open, I will go there to eat their fresh seafood...

A little work for Better & Faster would be nice, but the food is Great!

Worst customer service in Downtown Detroit. My wife and I went there last night. I ordered a steak and could not get it cooked the way I wanted it. I asked to speak to a manager who treated my concern like a joke and blew us off. He overcharged us and got mad when I pointed it out to him. I can't speak on the food because I didn't get the chance to eat. I would never go there again. I would never recommend this place to anyone, and there is no way this place will stay in business with their customer service. If you are looking for a good time in Detroit, stay away from this place!!!

They suck!. I actually went to the Detroit location of Harbor House for my terrible experience. If you have been there you know they are supposed to give free bread with every meal. I paid for 5 meals but I didn't get all the bread and my guest were not happy about it. So I tried to ask for more bread (at least one per person like normal) and they tried to charge me for it. $2 for bread! Are you kidding me? For something that was supposed to come with the meal! So of course I called over the manager/owner who is over both locations and he was the biggest jerk you could ever meet. He was extremely arrogant. He acted like he didn't care if we came back or not and that it was okay for him to go charging arbitrary prices whenever he felt like it. Well it's not! And I am not recommending this place to anyone else. Don't go there if you want to be treated fairly because they don't understand the meaning of fair and equitable. He was a Grade A a**hole!

Service questionable.. at best!!. My husband and I were seated at a table and a gal took our drink order and brought appetizers. She never came back to take our dinner order. When we flagged her down she said we told her we were waiting for other people! Huh?? Never said that... never indicated that. So we told her we were not waiting for anyone and could we please order now. Her response was, 'Well, if you had told me correctly in the first place...!' Why would we tell her people were coming to join us?? My husband said, 'Well, we didn't tell you that so can we please order?' She said, 'F*** you and have a nice day!' And walked away!! We will NEVER go there again. Her name was April so if you go, give her a 'high sign' from us! Owner was completelty unprofessional too!!

Best I Ever Had !!. I visited Harbor House this past weekend for the first time. I am so disappointed I didn't try it sooner. As I walked in I was greeted by a very nice Hostess that sat us promptly. Walking to our table I could not help but notice the beautiful painting of ocean life throughout the entire restaurant. As we sat our waitress came to our table and asked what we would like to drink and explained there table served all you can eat menu...WOW!!! I was amazed by the assortment, from Chicken Pork, Fish, Seafood, and Steaks. No matter what you like they offered it. I had Babyback Ribs,London Broil,Crab Legs and Shrimp everything was amazing. Everything was hot and fresh, I asked the waitress how being all you can eat they keep it all so fresh. She replied everything is cooked when it is ordered, noting sits in a warmer. Besides all that they also included a hot buffet & and a salad bar that is out of this world. I do have to say though ribs are one of my favorites, and I after tring them if anyone knows of any better let me know cause they were the BEST I EVER HAD !!!!! For the very reasonable price anyone would be crazy not to try it. I was also told they have a new location just opened in Greektown. I going to tring that location next time I go down for a Tigers Game.

Great Food for the Price. We try to get to the Harbor House on a regular basis. We love the food, it is great quality. The food on the salad bar is good, but the waitstaff does not keep up with food that is either messy or completely out. If you can overlook a group of cranky waitresses and no one there to seat you, you will truly enjoy the food for it is definitely one of the best places in the Metro area for dinner. Ribs are fantastic, shrimp is excellent, love the wings, and unfortunately, this has to be in the atmosphere of cranky waitresses. If management can turn this around, they will have a great place...but then it might really be packed and I will have shot myself in the foot...so maybe I will tolerate the staff and continue to enjoy great food at this establishment. Yes, I do recommend this place for those that asked.

Harbor House is one of Detroits treasures.. We have been going to this restaurant for over 30 years. Where do i start? The salad bar is by far the best anywhere. ALways fresh and the best tasting salads anywhere. the soup is also great from their famous Gumbo to the seafood chowder. Which ever ones they offer when we go they are great. What is crazy is that after the fresh bread and honey butter, soup, salad and your dinner you can re order as often as you want from nearly twenty items I almost forgot their delicious mushroom appetizer which is included. I just found out a new location has opened downtown Detroit. I can not wait to find it. There is nothing else like it in the Metro area. It is no wonder they are always busy and a 2007 citysearch winner for best seafood.
