Visited from Cali. The service was good. The employee make sure we felt welcome I'm offered some free Kool-Aid. There was a mistake with the order and they told us to keep it and corrected it. The food was good. Reminiscent of nostalgic Southern eating. read more

Food was amazing at Harold's shrimp and chicken. It was hot and fresh. Great customer service upon entry up and all the way until I received my food. read more

So don't judge this place by the low ratings from when it was closed, those were just people upset they couldn't eat here. I can honestly give this place a 4.5 on taste alone. The crust was well seasoned but is a low herbed blend. It has a medium thickness and passes the test when you grab the fried skin off the thigh, you can taste that natural fried chicken flavor that always slaps you on the a$$ to let you know it's good. The leg, thigh, and wing were kinda small but it was paired with a giant boneless breast. It's always cooked fresh so if you dine in bring a hot chick to look at or have something to read cause you gonna wait 20 minutes (I'm okay with that). Over all, I ate every tasty morsel, I got full, and my fat a$$ had the meat sweats when I left. This was exactly what I wanted. Even though vulgar rap music was playing loudly, I still highly recommend this place read more

Harolds Shrimp and Chicken - Half chicken mixed. - Hookah Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Good tasting chicken and shrimp. My partner had the fish and chicken and it was all good. Served with delicious fries. I wanted gizzards but they were out at the time, also out of the banana pudding. Overall worth it but a bit pricey as is everything in Miami. read more

Yummy... should be enough said. If you're looking for chicken, fish and great service, then you have found the right place.

My friend and I had the wing, shrimp, catfish and perch and they were all delicious. It took a little longer than expected to get our food, but then the owner came out and apologized and gave us extra pieces of the shrimp and wings. Excellent customer service was much appreciated. read more

I just stumbled upon this place using my Yelp app. And I was SO-O-O NOT disappointed! Right when I walked in, I was vibing' with the music! As the photos show, the food was a delight! More-so; I made a buddy for life! The guest service is personable and friendly! (Wish they would open a location where I reside; or maybe not, because I'd be there everyday). read more

Someone wanted to check out Harold's....so I went to check it out. Soon as you walk in there's music playing and laid back atmosphere. Walk up to counter...they hand you a menu and order. I got a Combo with Catfish, Wings & Fries. Oh and I got a Tropical Punch Kool-Aid Drink. Catfish, Fries and Wings were good. The Kool -Aid sugar wise wasn't too sweet....just right. If your in the area swing by. read more

Two years back visited Harolds Shrimp & Chicken in South Beach. More of a quick visit, ran in ordered the lemon pepper wings & fries to go as we were on our way down to Homestead, FL. Yes FEASTING on the wings on the drive down, rich flavor, good to bite on and a word was not said as my thoughts could not keep up with the flavor and texture I was experiencing. While waiting on the order, had a meaningful but brief conversation with Rocco and Ja Their parting words were "please enjoy and hope you come back again". Two years later had an opportunity to visit Harolds on June 15th, and as I walked through i heard a familiar voice saying "I remember you". Words to make anyone smile. Again in addition to the wings ordered Fried Fish Sandwich with American Cheese (as I wanted something else other than Chicken). In this case, silence with eat bite, 15 to 20 minutes of no conversation, just myself FEASTING on the Fish Sandwich. In between the bites, yeah I heard the tunes and the game on the widescreen, even the chatter of other guests dining there. However my focus was..... Please remember there are more offerings on the menu. Hope this review guides you all to Harolds in South Beach, service and food at the best pace you expect it to be. read more

My sister and I visited "Harolds" this past weekend. Let me start off by saying that the wings were delicious, but the customer service is below average. The lady who worked there on this particular day had a nasty demeanor and was very dismissive. The restroom was out of order, per usual, and it was unbearably hot in there. I will not be giving this establishment any more of my money for these reasons. P.s- This is DEFINITELY not the real Harold's. Get it together because this ain't it. read more

terrible service!! rude! I walked in before closing time! the sign said OPEN! they looked at me as if I was not suppose to be there! I asked the guy do you close soon he looked at me with a stank face and said yea! never again! I wouldn't spend a dollar at this place! Turned the tv and music off while we were still inside! very distasteful!!! read more

Went in to get food! NO open restrooms to even wash your hands before you eat now that's disgusting. BIG SIGN next to the cash register . They have plastic table clothes on the table so they cant be wiping it down! Disgusting!!!! read more

I tried on 4 different Occasions to eat at The spot Oprah made Famous only to find it Closed. Daytime nighttime Anytime it was not open. So when I saw they were Actually open I took an 'Ultra' Norwegian there And Bragged about its History. Well history is Just that, a thing of the Past. My love affair with Harold ended in Chicago, And although I tried to Revisit the past I can Never go back. Time and Place matters. And Harold Has had his time. And feels Displaced amongst even the Most Common of Places. Chick Fil A or Even the fish Sandwich @ Arby's would Be a better choice. And to Have the unmitigated Gall To throw your SAUCE on top Of my wings without asking and then aggressively challenging Me when I was clearly unhappy And NOT OFFERING to make My order correct after 20 minutes Of waiting and a HORRID drink Served at an exorbitant price, FOH. Literally. Goodbye Harold! Again! P.S. the Norwegian Said and I Quote 'Matten Var Dritt!' Which translates to something Not so nice. p.s.s while strolling on Washington Earlier this evening the manager Approached me in the streets About this review. I stick to every Word I wrote. Even the Norwegian. My reviews are from my personal Experiences and are not a reflection Of your experiences. My truth is My Truth. And for that I am Unapologetic. read more

Harolds Shrimp and Chicken - A bill for the worst service and The 2nd worst visit to this franchise. - Hookah Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

The food at this location is honestly better than all the locations in Chicago where they originally started . I'm from Chicago and I could honestly say I'll be stopping at this location every time I visit . Best chicken around . Hidden gem without a doubt. read more

I noticed this Harold's chicken when I was here in Miami last June and finally decided to go for lunch during a September visit. The attendant had as much personality as a door knob but my food was piping hot since I was the only person in the joint. The chicken and fish was cooked golden brown. So were the fries. Only thing I didn't like was I paid 26 bucks for two pieces of chicken one piece of fish and fries. Ridiculously priced and definitely not worth it. I guess since it's south beach that makes it ok. Some establishments forget that we are still in a pandemic and some folks haven't recovered from financial hardships. I'll stick to getting my Harold's chicken at home in the Chicago area. read more

The food is fantastic. We're from Chicago and we're looking for food that reminds us to home. We're so happy to have found Harold's Chicken here at our favorite getaway place South Beach. We highly recommend the fried chicken, the cat fish, the shrimp and the hot sauce. The owners give you a superb service, they're both very friendly and make you feel you're home.

20/10 Harold's Exceeded my Expectations on all levels. While vacationing and eating "presentation food", my husband wanted some good ole fried chicken and found Harold's. Harold's vibe was 10/10, the music set the tone! And let me not forget, that food was the best-hands down the best fried chicken and fish anywhere even Chicago Harold's!!!! read more

Harolds Shrimp and Chicken - Catfish & Chicken Basket Jumbo Shrimp Basket - Hookah Bars Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Like anyone born and raised on Chicago's south side, I take my Harolds seriously. I have never lived anywhere that Harolds wasn't either walking distance or a short drive away....until I moved to Miami. So imagine how thrilled I was when I discovered this gem. Tastes just like home. Yes, it's the real deal. Yes, the mild sauce is authentic. Yes, you get the white bread and fries with it. Bonus: this spot is spacious, nice looking, has a great location close to the beach, it has a lounge area in the back and is black owned. The service was amazing. They went out of their way to open early to serve us when they hadn't officially opened yet. The owners were really welcoming. My family and I left happy, with our bellies full of delicious fried chicken and fish. This is our goto spot now. read more

Is this place still in business? Went by at 8pm on a Friday and it was pitch black inside and the doors were locked. I saw the hours online so was happy to drive all the way to south beach in what I thought was plenty of time before closing. Tip: Call before you go! If they don't answer, don't go. read more

This place sold me old stale chicken and shrimp I paid over $43 for. When I called the restaurant, the woman that answered said "It's impossible, we only sell fresh food". She's a liar. I have ordered there before and I know the difference between fresh and stale. This chicken and shrimp was dry and old looking. The attached photo CLEARLY shows the meats are old and dry not fresh. I reported them to Uber eats. Last time I ever order from them. read more

The service was amazing as well as the food. Plus it was fresh! Definitely will be going back! Thank you!!

Hot lemon pepper chicken was delicious + the mystery drink!! Definitely would recommend!!

I believe in giving second chances especially to black businesses that deserve the support and have great food. I learned during my previous visit they had an emergency which forced them to close early. They did not disappoint with the food today though! Truly tastes like the Harolds back home in Chicago. If you're in Miami definitely stop by, just make sure to call first. read more

I recently visited my brothers in Miami and was surprised to see that there was a Harold's in South Beach! It did NOT disappoint it was HOT and delicious, the owner (Preston Perry) even recommended that I put the sauce on my chicken wings which was on point!! I loooooved the hospitality, conversation and service, Preston even threw in some free shrimp for me to taste and they were delicious as well!! I will go to Harold's every time I'm in Miami read more

I'm a Chicago native,. I stopped by to see if it stood up to the original ChiTown Harold's Chicken Shack. The chicken and the shrimps were cooked to perfection, as well as the fries and that (1) slice of white bread. The mild and hot sauces were on point. I met the owner and congratulated him on his successful business. The service could have been a little bit warmer as I got no eye contact with the guys taking the orders. I also thought that the music choice was bad as it was only 2 pm and the hard core rap music was LOUD and vulgar. Maybe a little house music or jazz (Chicago style) and work you way to the rap as the night progresses. Everything takes time and I think with a little more training on the hospitality side and the choice of music, this place will be a hit on SOBE. Good Luck my brother!! read more

BEWARE ! This company with horrible service in Miami is falsely aligning itself as being associated with the REAL Harold's which originated in Chicago. The only other location is in Houston, Texas. It's a knock off and attempting to build and benefit from the original restaurant. Bizarre ! I only gave it one star to allow a post. We reported this to Harold's in Chicago who verified this company has fake locations and is not the success story they tout. Very is misleading. We only did this research after experiencing horrible customer service and salty wings. read more

The food was good. But the prices were ridiculous. The lemonade aka kool-aid was $6 for a cup & $3 for a refill (,25 cent cost). Tartar sauce was a $1 for an extra one. The 4 piece fish aka fish nuggets. My bill was $74. I try to support black owned businesses.. But geesh read more

I've been coming here for the last two years and the food is always good. They have the best chicken wings in South Beach Miami period!!!! If you come to South Beach make sure you stop by here. Anything you get is going to be good. I can't wait to come back and enjoy the good food here. read more
