Crawfish!!!

by EDog at Citysearch

I'm new to town and found the restaurant online after a search for crawfish boils. Being a native Louisianaian, I thought my days of eating boiled crawfish in the summer were over, unless I was making a trip home. I called immediately, spoke with the bartender who assured me that every Tuesdays and Saturdays, through August, they do a live crawfish boil. I went that very night! Not only were the crawfish hot, spicy and delicious, the beer was ice cold. The employees there are very gratious hosts, as it feels like you're walking into your local pub. I want to thank Rick Boyd, the owner, and all of his wonderful staff for the great times I've already had there and for the times to come. You guys are awesome!

• Pros: Wonderful Staff
• Cons: None

Finally, a New Irish Pub and Fine Dining Restaurant In Downtown Orlando

by rajuncajun121 at Citysearch

I went to the Harp and Celt for the first time last week. What a pleasant surprise awaited me when I walked into the Celt Irish Pub that looked like a pub right out of Dublin. The decor and woodwork is absolutely stunning. I was met as I entered the door by a server that introduced herself, asked my name, where I was from, offered advice on the menu items and took my drink order. I ordered a pint of Guinness and ordered the steak and mushroom pie. The Guinness was astounding as were the pie, but more importantly, I was made to feel as if I were a regular patron from the word go. My server then advised me that the Harp Restaurant offered full service fine dining and let me see their menu. That was my second trip. Again, when I arrived at the Harp, I received a warm welcome from the hostess and was seated in a 1900?s era style dining room that was rustic and full of personality. My waiter introduced himself and advised me of the features on the menu. I ordered the catch of the day which was swordfish with a Harp house salad and a glass of wine. I was spoiled by the food and service. It was such a great experience to go to an establishment and receive good old customer service with excellent food and atmosphere. I am now a regular at both the Harp and Celt. Another bonus is the Central garage for parking directly behind the Harp and Celt making it a breeze to park and a short walk to the front door.
