Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Safety Harbor

Our server Nick S. was great. The food was great. I had a NY strip and my wife had the flatbread. When they did not have the ice wine , we got comped some 20 yr. port and my Glenlivet. Had the creme brulee for dessert and it was excellent. Our second time there and will be back, hopefully we will have Nick as our server again.

Food is very good. Not fancy at all. Dogs are everywhere one was just loose and walking around. No cage or leash. We saw one on owners lap eating from a plate. Music was a one man band that was very good. If you don’t like loud ask to sit in the back or outside. We had 3 glasses of wine and three appetizers and with tip the bill was $103.00. Very expensive but what isn’t these days. Don’t miss the Clam Chowder it’s spectacular!

This was our third visit to Highland House. Food has been phenomenal—and consistently so! Service is wonderful and the staff works hard to deliver a terrific experience.

Mystic Fish is our favorite restaurant for special occasions, but it's great for just a night out (especially the day our house cleaners do a deep clean on our kitchen!). Last night we dined with another couple. I had made reservations ahead of time, but forgot to request our favorite server, Tom. For the second time, "someone" checked our past dining history and knew that we usually requested him. I was very happy to find that Tom was our server, and that we were assigned our "usual" table. He's the best! Very professional, but also friendly and knowledgeable, and anticipates his customers' needs. We each ordered different entrees. The pan-seared scallops, Asian-style short ribs, and bronzed tripletail were all raved over and thoroughly enjoyed. I got the crab-stuffed flounder, which was a bit disappointing. The flounder was tender and flaky, and very tasty. Unfortunately, the crab stuffing was seasoned with Old Bay or something similar -- a taste I do not enjoy at all -- and overpowered the flounder. The beurre blanc was a bit runnier than I expected, but had a subtle lemon flavor that went well with the fish. It didn't go as well with the green beans or mashed potatoes that ended up swimming in it. I ended up eating a good portion of the flounder, and my husband finished the rest of the fish and the crab, which he thought was very good. Three of us had dessert. I love the small portions for a very reasonable price. There's just enough to enjoy without getting over-full. We had the creme brulee, espresso pots de creme and Key lime pie. Each one was perfect. This is the first time in dozens of visits that I've ever not completely enjoyed my meal. Everyone else at the table enjoyed theirs immensely. We'll definitely be back, but I'll know better than to have any crab-stuffed entrees in the future. (This account is under my husband's name, but he did not write the review,)

Appetizer brussels sprouts were outstanding as well as the entrée diver, scallops over corn risotto, and some chorizo sausage was just enough sausage to complement the entrée. It was overwhelming. It was delicious. The Smashburger and homemade tomato bisque was outstanding. The dream martini the margarita excellent excellent. But of course it couldn’t have been as perfect as our wonderful, waitress Ashlee. she was seasoned knowledgeable and professional. She made our night perfect. We sat inside. The seats were comfortable. The ambience was outstanding. I would recommend this very very highly. If it wasn’t as windy we would’ve sat outside. It was a very delightful experience. We will come back again
