| - harper's reminds me of a kid who consistently gets "A's", isn't flashy, never causes any problems, and yet, doesn't get the recognition he or she deserves. over the 14 years i've lived in charlotte, i've probably been to harper's 15-20 times - that averages about 1-2 dinners a year. how is that possible? how have i not chosen this restaurant over others that aren't as consistent, well-priced, and just plain good. i've never had anything but great food and service at harper's, and they might just have the best chicken fingers in town.
i'm pleased to say that when my husband and i were deciding where to go on saturday night for a 6pm dinner with our kids and my mom, we picked harper's. it was delicious. first of all, it's a beautiful restaurant with servers who are always on top of their game. secondly, it has a huge selection of entrees, wine, and very good kids' meals. my kids split a cheese pizza (and, of course, i had to try a piece). it was ridiculously good. in fact, it was one of the best pieces of cheese pizza i've ever had . . . at harper's. can you believe that? it was thin crust with a ton of gooey cheese, and not too much marinara sauce. honestly, i couldn't believe how good it was . . . but, i'll move on.
i had the chicken fingers with two sides - and i picked mac and cheese and vegetables. insanely good. their chicken fingers are so delicious - i could go on for days about those . . . and the mac and cheese was also some of the best i've ever had. i love a gooey mac and cheese where the cheese overtakes the macaroni, and this was definitely that kind of mac and cheese. the veggies could have been cooked a little longer, but they were very good. my husband had the veggie burger, and he couldn't stop talking about how good it was. my mom had a grilled chicken sandwich, and she also thought it was fantastic. the kids each got a scoop of vanilla ice cream (comes with the kids meal - bonus!). for dessert, we all split a hot fudge/ice cream/brownie (with me eating the lion's portion). it wasn't the best hot fudge brownie i've ever had, but i consider myself a dessert connoisseur, and really - can you get a bad one? it was very good. our wine was great, my husband enjoyed his blue moon beers, and all in all, it was a perfect dinner. side note . . . i do have to admit that i had to get up and run 8 miles the next morning because the food was so good that i couldn't leave a morsel on my plate. but it was so worth it - i'd do it all again!
go to harper's with or without kids, and you won't regret it. it's a very good meal, reasonably priced, and i bet you'll walk away thinking: "hmm . . . that was really good. remind me again why we don't come here more often?"
