The Chicken is wonderful and french fries are homemade!
Nice cozy place. Staff was friendly and I always like free chips and salsa. Chicken was good but not great. Grapefruit chicken and lomo saltado are always great.
4 meals ordered, 2 were very good, other 2 were fair at best.
Perfection! Beautiful, delicious, and great service!
Love the this place, just was really busy tonight at 5pm unexpectedly...
they have daily specials we didn't know about until after ordering.
We have dined here approximately 6 times over the past year and every meal is amazing. The food is always hot, fresh, and superior tasting. The service is always prompt and efficient, as well.
The service was great... It was nice and quiet, due to the snow we had.. Food was outstanding! Loved the steak calamari... and the perch was amazing! Will go back for sure.
The owner came to our table to chech on us. He also gave us our dessert for free when He found it was our 36 Anniversary.

always a gorgeous place with pleasant, efficient servers.
Upon arrival only one other table was occupied. We were seated next to that table. The next guest to arrive were seated next to us. The remaining seats in the dining area were empty. It was almost impossible to carry on a nice conversation during this Valentine's Day meal.
Excellent service, fabulous food! Will definitely go back.
The service is top notch and the food is always good!
quaint décor, good attentive service, very complete well rounded menu w/daily specials.
We went there with another couple and had an excellent meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Service was very good.
Wwe always enjoy having dinner at the Courthouse Restaurant. The food choices are excellent and the food is always wonderful. We live within 4 miles of the restaurant so it is easy to get there.
My only complaint is that they did not provided a loaded baked potato. Only sour cream and butter, no chives, cheese, or bacon.
Great experience! We will return.
The service was very good and the food was delicious.
Love this place. Beautiful building and interesting history. Great food and prices!
Gorgeous surroundings; place just kept beautiful and seasonal.
I've been a loyal customer of LaCarreta since I was a student here in 1995. Their food, atmosphere, and service have been consistently superior. I recommend this restaurant to all my friends on a regular basis.
Excellent food. My guests thoroughly enjoyed their meals.
Allan is an exceptional and courteous server. Food is always great.
Ladies holiday get together for lunch at 1pm. Nice spacing of tables, bright well lit venue, white table cloths but not fussy, nice for conversation. No TV's in the dining area maybe in the bar area. Large fireplace. FANTASTIC service and Wonderful food. Great place to take your mother
I was impressed asking for a non-menu item was not a big deal. My server was excellent.
Nicki and Alan are the best servers. I love the old building, 1800+. Excellent food and prices.
Bumped into chef in hallway & I asked about the special of the day...Seafood Pasta. Ordered it, & it was very good. Also server Terri, was the best. Love Gretchen!! Sam's pretty GOOD job too. Judy MacK
Atmosphere is wonderful, staff is friendly and attentive.
A beautiful spot with good food, wonderful service and a delightful host.
Great food and service. Generous portions.
i know its not their fault, but I wanted pre dinner cocktails and they didnt offer.
We arrived on Saturday evening with reservations at 6:30 pm. We were told there was no more prime rib available. That seemed very early in the evening to be out of the item we had come for specifically. It was our anniversary. In the past there was a complimentary dessert for these special occasions. The waiter knew it was our anniversary and never offered the dessert. The entree we had was very good, but not what we had hoped for.
fantastic as usuaL.
The food here is so good. I love the perch. But, more the staff make you feel welcome like family. Personally, I love old, old, buildings and restaurants. This building has been here for well over 100 years. It was the go to place when I was in high school - and still is.
Outstanding service and very good food.
Very good and fresh food, very friendly staff, very clean, including white table linens, always very good experience.
Alan is an excellent waitstaff.
Wonderful food (I ordered the ceviche), attentive service, welcome prices.
Great food. Superior service. Nice ambience. Very enjoyable and relaxed.

Outstanding menu. Many selections to accommodate any appetite. Service was exceptional.
They friendly great their customers and seated us quickly. Our waitress was wonderful and the food was amazing!!! Highly recommend this for a date night, dinner with a friend or large group!
Everyone enjoyed their meals and staff was attentive, efficient, and friendly. The owner introduced himself and checked on us throughout the meal. Great Service!
Great atmosphere, good service, always excellent food.
Great service and great food! Reasonable prices.
Sam, the owner, is so pleasant to his guests and, obviously, helpful to his staff. Place is gorgeous, immaculate and delicious.

We've always had a very good meal and great service at the Courthouse Grille. It's also very close for us so we go there often.
Amazing service and food.
Very friendly administration! Wonderful attentive server. Great food. Will certainly be back
I love this restaurant! Have been here a few times and enjoy bringing someone new to experience it. Having the coupon is such a big of help. Thank You
Nicki is such a skilled and pleasant waitress. The food is always excellent.
the food was great. the entertainment was good. the price was on the high side.
Food was ok-good. Service was slow.
The pecan-encrusted salmon was very good, but the asparagus were a bit overcooked. (We were expecting mixed vegetables.) The chicken marsala was alright - nothing special. The artichoke hearts had been marinated so tasted strange with the marsala sauce. I think the bread is a harder roll than the softer bread that used to be served.
Very nice place. Waitstaff is very attentive
Very slow service
Could be a little less expensive... Food was great
Seemed understaffed
Healthy food options, not loaded in salt. Reasonably priced. Excellent service.
The great service started with the lady at the door she is so sweet then we sat at the bar area and had Brain as our server and he rocked and great suggestions and cool to talk with, we started with the girl and asked one question and never saw her again but Brain help us not even feel away about her leaving us and never coming back to our table. Now the manager Brain was great I had a little issue with my coupon and he fixed the issue right away not even a second thought and that is a great manager and great customer service, we can all the way from Hopkins to the Harp and we do be back again, O and those Harp fries are everything. Thanks for great service
No happy hour in the dining room, only the bar.
Great food!
This is the first time I've tried Peruvian food. I didn't find it to be anything special.
The book The Food wasn't cooked right

The server was by himself!!
He have not ben there since the restaurant changed hands. Food was great, service was excellent. We'll be back.
Elegant atmosphere with casual dining. Hostess was new, pleasant and very willing to find answers to any questions. Waitress was Pleasant and knowledgeable of menu. Very enjoyable experience.
service was great as well as our meal and drinks!
Gave 3 stars for quality of food, the service was atrocious! Order was missing an item that was ordered, he was non-attentive. There was an issue with the check out, No manager was on duty. I had to go and help to walk them through on how to rectify the issue. Sad.
It was so nice to be greeted by the owner. Very good service.
Portion of lasagna was quite small and hardly any meat in sauce.
The server was very nice as well as the service. Food quality and speed was good.
We got there 1/2 hour before closing. The staff was very nice, in spite of our late arrival. My husband's food was good, but mine was over done and very little sauce. Like it was left over from the early dinner hour.
Lighting wasn't great. Service was ok, we had to wait for a while before they would seat us. Food was not bad, but it wasn't amazing either.
reasonable lunch prices and good choices
Service was excellent, food was excellent, we had soup(chicken tortilla), appetizer (coconut shrimp) and entrees (sausage ravioli, crab ravioli and seafood pasta (this was a special offering). The three of us with entrees took food home. Drinks and desserts also.
food and service were outstanding
Table was dirty, had to wait 5/10min for a waiter, service was not good at all. Food was also cold.
The service and food were quite good!
The food was pretty good - the service was excellent. The venue is dated and needs to be refurbished. It smells like there has been a water problem - musty odor.
I'm a regular here but I brought a friend who had never been here before and everything was great.
Perch was well prepared but portion a bit skimpy the risotto was delicious and generous. The chicken parm was both delicious and generous. The revising was delicious
Good food and service
We waited too long for our meals. Mine was not hot.
Waitress was very attentive. Food was good and generous portions.
Food and service great.
Very consistent.
Food was great service was bad
Great food
Great menu including the duck stickers appetizer which was great. Very unique setting as well.
We always enjoy going to the Courthouse Grille. The food is excellent, the service is great and as a bonus to us, it's close by.
Very elegant atmosphere. We went here to celebrate a graduation and it was perfect for a special occasion.
It is a nice restaurant and has good food. We enjoyed the music with live band.
best service ever, food was great
The menu was wonderful. Had entrees from the special menu...Swordfish it was really great..but the best of all was the service.
Food is good and wait staff is great
This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is superior to others.
The Courthouse Grill is a favorite of ours. The food is usually excellent, as it was on this visit. Our waiter was very good, amiable, with a charming French accent. Our bill two dinners with a glass of wine and a $15 tip was $55, but we decided to throw in another $20, in memory of a friend who would give (much more) extra tip money to a waiter who he thought needed it.
Nice setting, delicious food, great service & a Bonus being able to hear music from the duo performing in the bar.
Nikki is the best server ever! Vegetables perfect, shrimp perfect, steak perfect, mashed potatoes perfect, coffee with grand mariner perfect. Service perfect.
Great food, nice atomosphere
Brian was good bartender& food was good
Waiter was extremely nice and went out of his way to meet our needs. Well trained!
Lots of TV's but still quaint and enjoyable for dining!
The waiter was the bartender. Although he was nice, he was way to busy to serve tables and tend bar! I took two meals home. The salmon salad was awful; my daughter said that it was one of the worst salads that she has eaten in years( she eats a lot of salads). The feta cheese tasted funny, and the salmon was so salty that she couldn't eat it! She told me to call and get the $14.99 back that I paid. I did call The Harp and the employee that I spoke with was able to credit my credit card with the $14.99. She was apologetic. The service was really slow because the waiter was waiting tables too!!! Should have had more help serving food!!!

Food as always was excellent. Service however a little slow and unresponsive. Not a big deal, but improving your service would really up your game.
