Harbour Restaurant at Canal Square

"My husband and I went to The Harbour Inn Restaurant for our wedding anniversary. We were seated in front of the fireplace. It was so romantic and the perfect spot for the occasion. Our waiter was Daniel and he was absolutely the best ever. He offered suggestions and made our evening perfect. We will definitely go back in the near future."

"Just before Christmas, my family and I enjoyed an amazing dinner out with good friends who recommended Harbour in Lewes, DE. We were welcomed by a warm, cozy atmosphere that perfectly accented the season. Dan, our server, was friendly and attentive, flawlessly performing the role of tour guide for the impressive menu and specials and thoughtfully offering recommendations for two in our party with gluten sensitivities. Everyone easily found something to their liking and enthusiastically savored our appetizers and entrées. I should also give special mention to the wide-ranging wine list. We were fortunate to have a oenophile among us who started us off at appetizers with a bottle of a Sauvignon Blanc called "Attitude" by Pascal Jolivet — a light, dry white made from organic grapes in France's Loire Valley region. While certainly distinctive, it uncannily complemented everyone's selected fare, and our tablemates smiled, swirled, and sipped two more bottles before we concluded dessert. We'll definitely be back to Harbour for more."

"We been wanting to try this restaurant for a while, so we went with some friends who had been there before. Unfortunately, although it was not crowded, service was slow. Our food actually went to another table before finally coming to us. Had the scallops which by then were cold, but I didn't feel comfortable sending them back. Was given the reasoning that "the kitchen was close to the outside door and the breeze may have gotten to the food, but they try to get the food to patrons as quickly as possible ". Other guests at our table stated their food was ok. My husband received a fatty duck breast. Was expecting better from this is upscale restaurant on the canal."

"We went to Harbour for our anniversary dinner and we beyond thrilled with our choice! We sat on their deck and loved the ambiance. The hostess was so sweet and came around to check on us and offered us blankets to keep us warm as the sun went down. We tried several of their handcrafted cocktails, all of which were delicious! We indulged in steamed clams as well as their crab and lobster beignets on their special menu- so yummy! The broth of the clams was so good we were eating spoonfuls of it on its own. We had the seared duck breast and lobster tail with crab cake, another special, and we devoured those. The duck was perfectly cooked and so flavorful! And we definitely weren't let down by the lobster tail! To end the enjoyment we had the fruit potpourri pie and coconut creme cake... the pie was amazing and didn't last very long on the plate. We had such a great experience from start to finish that we will always look fondly back on that year of our anniversary celebrations because it was an unforgettable meal!!"

"This place is very romantic with very original and delicious food. We visited for brunch and sat outside on the patio. It is a very romantic, peaceful, elegant setting. Although it is probably best for adults, it is doable with children because Canal square is right around the corner. We took kids to watch crabs on the pier, run around in the park and playground while adults waited for food or the check. The freshly squeezed orange juice was delicious and healthy for the kids, served in plastic cups. Servers were courteous and attentive and the only reason I downgraded it a star is because of the very long wait - it took 40 minutes to serve the first course, and another 30 for the second. Possibly because they were full that day - Sunday brunch. But the food was excellent. Also, they have a full bar, beautiful waterfront bar seats and great well-balanced and varied cocktails. A good selection of zero proof drinks too, which is great for pregnant and nursing women. Overall, I highly recommend!"
