Harbor House Cafe: Reviews & Ratings

Loved the atmosphere! It was so relaxing to sit outside surrounded by water and beautiful scenery. The kids enjoyed feeding the fish and watching the ducks. The burgers were excellent and had a flame broiled flavor. I'd score the salads lower than the burgers, as the salmon and chicken were both very dry on the salads we ordered. Salad dressings were good and helped make up the difference. The service was excellent!

Very nice cafe right at water's edge with plenty of seating, very friendly waitresses, when it's warmer weather there is a large outdoor patio..fun to watch the many ducks swim & stroll right beside you. All our food was very good both times Ive been here. We had hamburgers onion rings, buffalo chicken wrap, & grilled chicken sandwich all perfectly prepared & tasty. Kaitlin was our server & she was professional & friendly. Cindy also took some photos of our group...both very kind. I will surely come again as it was very pleasant place to hang at the harbor.

I love this place. I remember coming here as a kid. I don't love pay $25.00 to get in to have lunch. We ordered salt and pepper wing/tater tots and garlic cheese curds. Everything we had was really good. Service was great. They also sell popcorn so you can feed the ducks and fish. We had a great time.

10/10 experience... but don't come here for the food! Adorable restaurant, basically the only one on lake mead except the seasonal dinner cruise. Parking in a large marina lot. Walk down the dock to find the restaurant. Sit outside, enjoy a drink. They have nearly a full bar. The girls who work here are super nice. The zucchini fries were decent. Just don't expect much out of the food, but that's not what you should be here for. Amazing place to relax and enjoy the lake views.

First time here grabbing something simple. Bacon Cheese burger with fries and a buffalo chicken wrap with onion rings. Peaceful and great service.

A fairly large cafe right on the water, plenty of seating indoors & outside. The view was very nice, looking out to the boats tied up at the marina & seeing the calm waters of Lake Mead. But, it is a bit of a walk from the gravel parking lot, especially if it's a hot day. The food was wonderful & the service was great. I went with the Island Chicken sandwich, while the Mrs went with their signature Titanic. We both had tater tots. Hot & crispy, they were a great side dish. The have a full bar too. The interior decor was very clean & neat. From the pirate near the front to the diving helmet & then the surfboards & signs on the walls, all reflected a water motif. All in all, we were happy we stopped in.

Yeah, Buoyyy! Excellent food and service! This nautical-themed restaurant sits right on the water of Lake Mead. Their menu offers diner-like options as well as seafood. My daughters completely finished their mac and cheese and chicken fingers from the kids' menu while I did the same to my Grilled Cheese (one of my favorite meals) on my choice of rye. YUM! For their included sides, I went for their amazingly good potato salad. My mother-in-law and hubs also enjoyed their meals and beer. A lovely little sail-abration! NOTES/TIPS: **Wheelchair-accessible. Clean bathrooms. Casual vibes but a shirt and footwear required. **You can feed the ducks and fish by the dock outside. **Parking is very easy before the dock along the sandy area in a vast lot.
