About the restaurant

This beautiful, upscale restaurant is one of the establishments that will surely meet and exceed the expectations of a discerning public seeking a truly exceptional dining experience.

However what really characterizes Harry's beyond its beauty and location, is the extraordinary high quality of its gastronomic offer. The kitchen specializes in the very reduced use of condiments, the purpose is to allow the natural flavors of the ingredients to be used flourish.

Harry's Prime Steakhouse & Raw Bar is the best place to enjoy that special occasion. From its beautiful architecture, sophisticated ambience and artistic cuisine to the extensive wine list and impeccable service will make it memorable.

Everything was amazing here, starting with the welcome drinks of Ametarasu and ending with the fire and acrobats shows. The service team led by Mar was excellent. The miso soup was fine but the short rib gyong had a wonderful sauce. The chicken skewers are very good but the sauce on the beef skewers makes those even better. The dragon roll Maki had a wonderful combination of flavors and textures. The macadamia pie with popcorn and caramel was delicious for the dessert. This restaurant deserves its ranking and reviews.
