Had a great visit while in Tampa on vacation on a weeknight. Would imagine this place is hopping on a weekend or event night as huge.We had superb service and enjoyed our meal outside, it was a great evening for that. Started with Conch critters and Tater kegs. The kegs were a great take on a classic appetizer but Conch was more filling without a distinct taste, but still ok.We both went with the Monday shrimp special and well worth it. So many shrimp ? The sausage had great flavor as well. We saw after we placed our order you can add mussels for just $5 more so would suggest taking advantage of that.They have some great cocktails off the menu so give them a try.Regret this restaurant not local to us based on our location but will certainly return if we find another location in our travels.

Came in for quick bite after a major weekend conference and before flying out. Bar seating was excellent, gentleman helping me was professional and respectful. Appreciated his stories to share!Sunday lunch in the afternoon turned around in less than 10 minutes (it was fast!!). Quality was excellent. Highly recommend the Cuban Egg roll, which is a delightful twist to the traditional Cuban sandwich. Quesadillas were excellent as well!Highly recommend. Wish I could be around more often to visit this delicious place. I know if I ever come back, I'll be looking for this spot again!

If I could give this restaurant zero stars I would. The worst meal I have ever had. I am pescatarian and a seafood lover they say the seafood is fresh well the snapper is definitely frozen I eat fresh fish all the time no way the snapper was fresh no flavor and tough. The lobster tasted like it was bad. How this place had good reviews is beyond me the only thing that was good was my ginger ale don’t come here waste of time and money. Horrible I would of rather ate a tuna fish sandwich then what I had from here disgusting.

I had the opportunity to eat at Harpoon Harry’s Crab House with a group of about 100+ people. We were in for a conference and the organizers set up a meal here. The place is very cool. Crab shack pub motif, and plenty of windows and natural light. We sat upstairs where they open these big doors so you can feel the salt air breeze while you dine. For an Appetizer we had Cuban Egg-rolls. Wow. Amazing. They were fantastic and I was surprised by the mix of tastes in one little roll. I then had a burger and fries. The bun on the burger was melt in your mouth good. The burger was prepared just as I asked. I really enjoyed the fries as well. I highly recommended Harpoon Harry’s Crab House if you are in the neighborhood!

They advertise a smoked old fasion and 3 trys later with the hostess involved still couldn't get it right. The Cuban egg rolls were great but the sushi as well as the seafood risotto was mediocre at best. Definitely not worth it...

great atmosphere.. Server was the best did a great job for a party of 20

Went in at an odd hour, 2pm. The staff was very friendly but slow. The conch fritters were great, the volcano roll was good but my girls truffle Mac and cheese was heavy on the truffle oil. I couldn't smell anything else on the table besides the oil. Drinks were ok. I'd try it again but first impression wasn't spectacular.

Great place addition to the downtown area. We stopped by after Gasparilla to eat before catching the trolley and what a pleasant surprise. Our first time there and for such a busy night we had a 15 minute wait to be seated and the food was absolutely amazing! The sushi was really great & I like that it gives us other sushi options downtown. The crab bowl was amazing! Seasoned well and reasonably priced. The staff was really friendly also and again for a busy night the restrooms were clean and staff came in the ensure paper towel & toilet tissue was stock. Again great place and I highly recommend. The manager on staff was also welcoming and just as involved with service of customers as everyone else might I mention.

This is going to be a new favorite everytime in town! Casual fun setting but with high end amazing food! Janice was our server & she was amazing! All of our food was served perfectly & delicious! Definitely try this place, I don't think you'll be disappointed!

We went in at 9:30pm on the weekend of gasperella and sat at the bar to order drinks and food. We ask for a food menus and the bartender recommended us to to go Hattricks since they weren’t serving food at the bar. We started to leave the a manager stopped us and said they would serve us food. Long story short… go to Hattricks. The food was great and they served you food.
