Had the best table in the house. Ordered a hamburger and risotto, plus a bellini, of course. Waiters were extremely friendly, food was delicious, crowd was interesting. A great experience, though pricey. Can't wait to return.

Very disappointed
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/29/09
Visited Harry's Bat with 4 girls... after having a Bellini at Cortine Palace in Sermione very disappointed, no etiquette, served in a fruit juice glass & not fresh peaches at all but a made up cocktail... I bought a bottle in Venice for 2.50 euros in Venice & sure it was the same thing (although half the bottle) what a rip off , charged ...
This is the place where Americans used to gather back in the day when they were in Venice--Hemmingway being the most famous. If you're into visiting the old watering holes of the past, I think this is a fine place to stop and have one drink. The Bellini was invented here (peach juice and proscecco). They cost 15 Euro apiece--so plan on ...
I was concerned after reading some of the negative reviews, but went there for before dinner cocktails anyway. On that Saturday evening, the staff was friendly and helpful. The bartender made a perfect martini. However, sitting at the bar I also could see that the supposedly famous Bellini was indifferently made using canned mix in a pair of ...
If you are not attractive and on a budget, skip it. On the other had their fried shrimp is an extraordinary dish...we were seated near Mel Gibson, jerk. Had an incredible time and the GF even gave me a little something special....

VERY DISAPPOINTED
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/09/08
We were in Venice in July and one of the stops on our list was Harry's Bar. We arrived around 11:00am and the bar was empty. We were greeted by a very unfriendly waiter who took one look at my husband (he was in shorts -- it was 90 degrees Fahrenheit) and refused to seat us. I had read up on the bar before we left and NO WHERE is a dress code ...

Just to say you been
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/03/08
I stumbled across this place literally....it was on my must see list for venice and I turned around it was there. Went in had the way to expensive Bellini but yummy....and it was exactly as I had envisioned....white jackets, black ties...delightful. In fact I witnessed a young couple get engaged...quite fun. Hell for 15 EUR a bellini let it out of your wallet just for the sheer enjoyment of saying you been, remember your on holidays!

Not impressed
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/11/08
It was just another restaurant. Paid over $100 for a pasta meal and a couple of glasses of wine! I think it is over-rated

A Costly Drink at Harry's.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/13/08
Very small over-rated bar, way to expensive to drink there. We were 2 couples. One Whisky,2 Gins and 1 Bellini..60 euros. All drinks in this bar are very expensive!!!
