    Great restaurant, food and service. Only criticism is the mains arrived too quickly, whilst we were still enjoying our cocktail’s (we are not slow drinkers), and it would be nice if the wine arrived before dinner - we had to chase for the wine to be served after the mains arrived. Please don’t offer cocktail’s if you aren’t going to let customers finish them before the food arrives - it wasn’t even busy.

    It was our first visit and definitely won't be our last. Both food and service exceptional. Our waitress even picked up on the fact that it was our daughter's birthday, and presented her with a candle topped cake. Such a lovely touch!

    Fab service today from Amy and the team. We were running very late due to heavy traffic but they were very accommodating. Unfortunately they had run out of fresh fish by the time we got there (their delivery was less than usual for some reason) however Amy gave us a complimentary drink each to compensate, which we didn't ask for but was gratefully received. We will definitely return next time we visit our in Exeter Uni. Thanks Team Harry's - you're amazing!

    The food was delicious, the service was friendly and welcoming. There was a relaxed dining experience and perfect for any occasion! Good choice of wine which was reasonably priced. Best part of the evening was the food, lots of variety and everything we had was delicious. Best meal we have had in a restaurant for a while.
