• Southern • I Drive / Sand Lake

A Modern Approach to Southern-Inspired CuisineAside from the classic cocktail, a highball is a train conductor’s signal to depart at full speed. It was how Central Florida’s abundant harvests moved from field to table, an iconic symbol of the region’s agricultural might. Highball & Harvest (H&H) pays homage to this legacy, with menus laden with ingredients from local farms, as well as our own green-growing efforts. We pluck fresh produce from our on-site 7,000- square-foot garden at Whisper Creek Farm. Handcrafted cocktails are infused with seasonal fruits and herbs, and create a culinary adventure that is as inspiring as it is memorable.Valet parking is available and will be validated in the restaurant

10 out of 10 would recommend! The food was amazing and the service was phenomenal! Went to celebrate my birthday with my close friends and apparently every other table was also celebrating birthdays, however our server Nori made me feel as if my birthday was the one that mattered most! She was absolutely fantastic!! We’ll be back soon!

An unexpected surprise. We decided to eat here because we were staying at the hotel and we were very pleased. Kat was amazing and very accommodating. The octopus app was deelish and my salmon entree was very good. The rest of our party had the Steak, snapper and burger and again all pleased.
