★★★★★ 5.0 Philip Ahye · Feb 2026

Absolutely great experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out looking just as good as it tasted. The baked oysters were amazing perfectly cooked with melted cheese and seasoning that hit just right. The loaded nachos were stacked high with toppings and full of flavor, definitely enough to share but so good you won’t want to. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Drinks were on point too. Overall, a really enjoyable dining experience and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend if you’re looking for good food, good vibes, and quality service!

I normally have to take some food home, but not this time! I'm unashamed to say we cleaned our plates! For starters we had calamari (perfectly crispy and not chewy) and the stuffed mushrooms (OMG OUR FAVORITE DISH OF THE NIGHT). I had the broiled flounder. It was juicy and seasoned to perfection. The side of garlic mashed potatoes were the best I've had from any restaurant. Sis had the She Crab Salmon. Cooked exactly the way she wanted it. She was first to finish her plate at the table of 12. Not that anybody is asking, but go ahead and swap those regular fries out for the sweet potato ones. I ABSOLUTELY can snack on those all night. We'll for sure be back when we're in the area. There's more to try. And the prices are fair. Plus service was great! 10/10 recommend

Late post from April Second time trying this restaurant & it doesn’t quite hit the spot for me. The servings are a nice size & the price isn’t bad. I ordered the calamari which was good. I also ordered the flounder & sweet potato fries. The flounder looked delicious. It was cooked well but lacking a little in taste. The hush puppies were really good.

Harpoon Larry's Fish House & Oyster Bar is a seafood lover's dream! The quality here is fantastic. The oysters were so good : incredibly fresh and flavorful. I also enjoyed the lobster roll, and the fish tasted real good. Excellent quality seafood across the board. I highly recommend this spot for a delicious meal.

(DOORDASH ORDER)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I tried the seafood gumbo, cheesecake, and sweet tea and everything tasted really good. The gumbo was full of flavor with plenty of seafood and had a nice level of spice I honestly wasn’t expecting, which made it even better. The sweet tea was amazing too, with the perfect amount of sweetness. I was hoping for a strawberry cheesecake but it seemed like they might have been out of berries; still, the slice was a good size and very satisfying. Overall, a really enjoyable experience and I’d definitely reorder .
