My girlfriend and I ventured to The Harp last night for the first time. I have driven past it many times, but usually on the way to a bar or other restaurant in Lakewood. We had a fabulous time.
The draft list is predictable given the Irish theme, except for the Heineken on tap, which is a bit unusual to find anywhere. We had an excellent crab cake appetizer and ordered entrees from the Boxty Cakes section. The Boxty Cakes are potato pancakes filled with all kind of goodness. My girlfriend got the steak boxty and I got the corned beef boxty. I would recommend either.
We finished with an Irish coffee that was delicious.
The Harp has a nice atmosphere (especially given the location). There is a beautiful wood bar and the dinning room chairs look like antiquities from Ireland. They also offer live music Wednesday, Friday & Saturday.
I have to say that I am surprised to see the poor reviews, but they are a bit dated so perhaps things have changed. I would recommend The Harp for anyone looking for a solid dining experience.
