| - Harris Grill is great during happy hour and OK during all other times. I used to live right down the street from Harris Grill, so I would come here often. I like the sangria, but since I only come for happy hour these days, I generally just stick with the $3 cosmopolitans. I've had a few different dishes for dinner and they're OK. I remember going ape over the macaroni and cheese a couple of years ago, but I had a bite of a friend's macaroni and cheese on July 4 and was completely underwhelmed. Maybe my macaroni and cheese tastes have evolved, or maybe the quality has just gone down.
My typical happy hour snacks are hummus with pita and the pierogies. I like the hummus - nothing bad to say. I actually love the hummus. I like texture and there are chunks of whole chickpea. I also like that Harris Grill lets me pick whether I want pita, pita chips, and/or vegetable sticks. The pierogies, to me, are hit or miss. I've had them probably three times and once they were so cooked that they were crunchy and dead, once they were perfect - lightly panfried but still softish, and the other time they were somewhere in between. They always taste like butter though. Seriously. Paula Deen would love these pierogies.
My favorite thing that I've ever had at Harris Grill is the deep dish cookie with the ice cream on top. I dream about that thing, but since I am not actively trying to gain 400 lbs, I stick to eating it once every 6 months or so.
The menu is... cute, if you like cutesy menus. The outdoor seating is great on a warm summer evening.
