Okay Food, Decent Price, Bad Customer Service

by nabbnzzbae at Citysearch

I have visited this restaurant twice. My first visit was great. The food was fresh, the service was prompt and the price was very reasonable. There were only two of us and it was about an hour before closing so there weren't that many people in the restaurant.

Because iI enjoyed my first visit, I convinced a group of my friends (about 15) to go for a birthday party. We were seated promptly but the ordering drinks/food and actually getting the food took about an hour. By the time we got our food we were starving.

The thai food that we had ordered was mostly cold, probably because they were trying to bring all the food out at once. Some of us returned the food to the kitchen and it was just merely microwaved and returned to us. The beef was rock solid and most of the food lacked any flavoring. My pad thai had dried out by the time i began eating it...

The sushi that was ordered had very bad coloring to it and it did not look even remotely fresh. It looked like the sushi that you get at the grocery store.

To top it all off, we were charged 18% gratuity which is completely understandable since we had a large crowd. But for some reason, some of us were charged more than 18% and i ended with about 40% charge on the total cost. I called the next day, tried to reach the management, and they never called me back.

I intentionally convinced my friends to come here for a birthday party since i thought it would be a great experience. However, it was quite disappointing and i do not think i will be returning in the future.

• Pros: Reasonably Priced Food
• Cons: You Get What You Pay for

Worst thai ever

by FoodieB at Citysearch

I had the green curry and it was very bland even after I asked them to make it hot for me. There was nothing thai about the dish at all.The sushi looked good or at least the pictures on the menu did but I prob wont ever give it a chance.

• Pros: No charge for more rice

Consistently Great Thai/Sushi!

by Citysearch Grodi at Citysearch

I just moved back to Atlanta after 6 years. I had to go back to my fav. thai rest. Harry & Sons. After 6 years this restaraunt still proves to be one of my favorites. Chicken Panang and Eggrolls were as usual Yummy! The service was warm and helpful.

• Pros: Always great food and service.

This Place Is Really Good...Really Good!

by BenW at Citysearch

Awesome.... Best sushi and Thai in town. Super Crunch Roll and the Harry Maki Roll, well forgetaboutit. I have had almost everything on the menu and have been blown away by it all. The service is always great, while the restaurant itself has a very easygoing vibe. I just wish I could get some of the lunch menu for dinner.

• Pros: Sushi, Thai, service, I can keep going
• Cons: none

Great sushi!

by spiffsteph at Citysearch

I?m a regular visitor here, and will continue to be one! My boyfriend and I come here for a healthy, tasty dinner of soup and sushi. The sushi is always fresh and tasty, although we did order take out from there once and didn?t have a great experience. They aren?t exactly cheap here, but the quality of the food is well worth the extra couple of dollars. I?ve never had a poor experience with the service other than it being slow when they?re crowded. It?s always clean and inviting, and the wait staff has always been more than kind. Love this place!

• Pros: Sushi, Soups, Apps,
• Cons: Thai

excellent asian foods in an unassuming package

by katieanddustin at Citysearch

Harry and Sons in Virginia Highlands is certainly unassuming on the outside - and inside really - but it fits the style of the Highlands. If you aren't looking for it, you can walk right by it. The inside isn't lavishly appointed either; it is the food alone that is the draw for this restaurant. The menu is pan-asian with a little american thrown in. Being a fairly new sushi eater, I was a little intimidated by the menu, actually. However, the tempura roll that I had was amazing. It was a bit pricey for a weekday lunch considering the other cheaper options, but as far as good sushi goes it was right on par. I have never been when it is busy, but judging by the size of the dining room, wait time probably get lengthy on the weekends. If you can sneak away for a weekday late lunch, I would recommend it. We sat right down and had our food in less than 20 minutes. It is a great place to meet friends.

• Pros: great food
• Cons: limited seating, a bit pricey

The thai may be mediocre, but the sushi rolls are fantastic. Try the Crab roll.

Beginner Thai!

by jaymaygm at Citysearch

If you don't know anything about Thai cuisine, this might be a good place to start. This is the most basic Thai food, from the owner next door at Surin. Tasteless, no depth, and where is the curry? Service is that of college cafeteria. Hard to find a place to park.

• Pros: It's In The Highlands!
• Cons: Bland Food Quality, Very Basic Service!

PERFECTION REALIZED FOR LITTLE PRICE

by richwinga at Citysearch

This place serves the best gourmet food in town. The employees are the best servers in the business. There's never a wait: two inside seating areas ideal for parties and events. H&S has the perfect atmosphere for any occasion, business lunch, first date, anniversary. It is kid friendly, but during the day or on a Sunday evening is better family time.

Sushi quality is wonderful! The calamari rocks. And a bottle of sake is 10$ Can't beat that.

This is one of the best restaurants around!

See you there.

• Pros: sushi quality, service
• Cons: none

best sushi for your buck!

by beadleysa at Citysearch

Another long time favorite of mine. Harry & Sons is the perfect blend of sushi quality, atmosphere and value. This spot is not uber-trendy or a see & be seen place, which I prefer. The sushi quality is great and the prices are perfect for what you get. In the 5 years I've been eating here, I have never had a problem with the service. I always recommend Harry & Sons and it's always my first choice when the craving strikes!

I celebrated my 26th birthday party here as well. The original reservation was for 10 - which grew to 20. They did a great job accomodating us all!

Looking forward to more years of great sushi!!

• Pros: Great Value, Good Atmosphere, Outdoor Patio
• Cons: Lunch ends at 2:30
