First time here, friendly and fast service. Good sandwich, average size. Side of fries are extra, not that great. We did come while they're having a transitional menu while they expand. So I believe the menu was limited. The menu says the sandwiches come with coleslaw. We got chips. We didn't receive any slaw so we asked our server and she said we'd get either or. The menu didn't say that and she didn't ask us our preference, though she did say she'd get us some. They have buckets to hold the condiments and they're pretty dirty. Oh well, it's outside. Nice lake view and relaxing place to chill out. read more

Can't really comment on the food. Smelled good. We were looking for a new place to try. We waited for about 15 minutes. Several waiters came by, by no one said a word to us. We weren't sure if we were supposed to seat ourselves. They really need a greeter. read more

You can drive or boat up and it is all outside, but it's covered. They have fans with misting devices to keep cool. The servers are very nice and are pretty quick! The food is pretty good as well. read more

Out of the way bistro. Quiet lunchtime for them. Very attentive service by an attractive server. I had one of their daily specials (pulled pork) which was very good. Plenty of parking and Al fresco seating is available. read more

We had not planned on stopping here! Glad we did, we were pleasantly surprised. We had the chili, steak salad, tuna salad, hot dog and a hamburger. It was all very good! They had live music which was enjoyable, a nice lake view and plenty of outdoor seating. It's dog friendly, boats have docking, and there is also an inside bar that has A/C. A cocktail and other drinks were good as was the coffee. They do not have desserts? The crowd was eclectic and friendly. Whether you ride a bike or drive a car, it's all good. The bathroom was also clean. Our waitress was Tessa, she did a great job and our food was hot when delivered! Go to her area and you will not be disappointed. Give them a try! Peace, Ralph read more

Lake Harris Hideaway - A Band playing at the Hideaway! - Salad Near Me - Tavares, Florida

Went to Lake Harris for lunch today... first time in a while. I've always loved loved loved the atmosphere - it's the BEST!! They weren't busy at all and I was disappointed how long it took to be acknowledged by the staff... like 5 mins at least maybe?? We even had to ask a couple times who our server was. That's how we started. I ordered the Wednesday special of 6 wings and fries. You have a choice of traditional or boneless - I chose traditional. I asked for them to be extra crispy and/or well done, however the chef would understand best. I also asked if the fries were regular or coated - she said they were regular... ok. My husband ordered a burger medium and asked if it would come medium or did he need to order medium-rare? Nope, server said medium was ok, it would be cooked correctly. Food came -- burger was cooked WELL DONE AND FRIES ARE COATED. Two things we specifically inquired about... if you've read any of my previous posts - I hate coated fries! I'd rather eat something else or just not eat anything... and my husband truly is easy - just don't over cook his burger. If he needs to order rare to get medium, he'll do it. My wings were also unfortunately not extra crispy. The did thankfully recook my husbands burger and the 2nd time around it was cooked properly... the waitress was nice when she was around - she was just hard to find. And I finally had a waitress tell me her name but I don't wanna throw her under the bus sooo not gonna put it in my review. She would probably get 3* but the food a 1* which is why they're getting 2*. Will we return -- not sure. Love the atmosphere but the food, it's very shaky!! read more

What a neat find! We came by water and love the ambiance here. Came on a Wednesday afternoon and were immediately greeted by friendly staff. Drinks were nice and cold. We look forward to our next experience at the Hideaway. read more

Great place to enjoy the live music and drink But service and food are terrible took us 2 hours to get are food and when came was cold and the waitress was very rude to everyone that was at the table read more

If I could give this place a ZERO I would! I have no FREAKING IDEA how this place has this many stars! Service is HORRIBLE some people just left because after waiting 35 min for drinks nothing came. The food is complete and total GARBAGE! It's like little kid birthday party food! It's overpriced and nothing on that menu should be over $5. The menus are cheap paper with a list of a few " kid birthday party food" items on it and the look and taste of it is even WORSE when it finally hits your table 1 HOUR LATER! Mind you, all we had on the menu was basically hot dogs, hamburger, Philly cheesesteak (if that's what you call it), and a nasty fish sandwich! There is NO DARN WAY this place has these kinda reviews! We all left completely pissed off! Felt like we threw money right into the lake!! LITERALLY! read more

Looking for a great way to pass the day lakeside. This is the place to hideaway. Seat yourself. Stay awhile. Sit back and relax. And drink to your hearts content with live music. This place is all about the VIBE! read more

Music on the weekends, bikes welcome . Limited menu, also kinda pricey? We had a burger it was huge

Love the location and ambiance. The live music is excellent, especially J. Alan Six. The food is good, the wings are excellent! The service is good. Only two down sides - they allow smoking throughout the outside area. There should be a designated smoking area away from the customers and food! Lastly, I'm an IPA snob - always looking for a good IPA on tap. They only have Goose Island on tap and Jai Alai in a can. Can I suggest you add a stronger IPA on tap? Pernicious Wicked Weed is amazing and local. Nothing like a good cold IPA and a burger and wings. That'll keep 'em coming back! read more

This place was a typical small town restaurant on a lake in Florida. The setting was beautiful and they even had a singer playing music. That is where the good stopped. After ordering it took at least 15 minutes to get our drinks and 1 1/2 hours to get our food. Several people around us came in after us and received their food reasonable quickly. One table was finished before we even got our order. I think we can scratch this place off our future restaurants to visit read more

I probably got the wrong waitress, our food came out long after all other customers behind us. Everyone one else seemed to be enjoying their lunch, and all other waitresses were hustling. Ours was working the bar and not going to check on the food. Our food appeared to have sat in the kitchen for 30+ minutes, we waited for an hour to receive hard cold fries and my melt was dry and cold. When we tried to get Donna to provide fresh fries we were ignored. The manager comped us 10% off of 3 lunches what a joke. read more

We went to Lake Harris hide away hoping to have clam strips which they stated they had on the menu online. They did not have clam strips at all and the menu did look quite different than what we expected. It was a beautiful spot to watch the sunset over the lake. My husband had chili which was good and I had the corn dog nuggets which were OK. My Husband had the burger and I had a BLT. Food and the service was ok. read more

we visited for lunch on saturday may 20th with a headcount of 18. very nice place good food, great service. it was our first trip out there. I don't remember our servers name but she was very friendly and didn't seem to panic with the group size. Thanks y'all for a great Saturday Meri'cans motorcycle association. read more

Great place but dang, they shut down early!! Every time I want to go there, they're closing an hour or two early. They need to extend the hours!! read more

We have been here many times and always enjoyed our meal and the view. Today our meal took very long to come to the table over 45 min. To an hour for sandwiches, all the food came to the table cold. Told the waitress and she said her manager just put it up...... she never came back except for the bill . Wanted to bring us another but told her we. Waited so long I would not chance it again., very disappointed. This happen to us at. Miller's Ales house and they competed the whole bill. That makes you want to go back and try again. read more

Great food mostly burgers and fries food but it wall all satisfactory. This is really your neck of the woods small town eatery. Right on the lake boat and biker friendly with live music. Mostly all outdoors though and service could be slow but it was enjoyable. read more

We were going to meet ppl so we got on the the boat to check it out and as we arrived we noticed Employees and 95% of the patrons weren't social distancing. Ppl were dancing and employees were wearing masks. We left. I didn't realize that employees in restaurants didn't have to wear masks In Florida. read more

Very unsatisfied. Low quality food at very expensive prices...bar food! The only good experience was our server. She had mentioned up front that she was the only server for the evening. I do have to say she busted tail to make sure her Patrons were taken care of. Kitchen help /mgr was rude. Pretty much threw our remake onion rings on the table. The bartender that was on duty did nothing. Our server did it all!! POOR MANAGEMENT!! ONLY POSITVE from our visit was Tiffany! read more

Cute little off-the-wall bar and restaurant right on the lake all outdoor seating but is covered excellent with your Pats coming to the restaurant in fact they have a dog that hangs out at the restaurant owned by the owner. Our dog is a service dog but we will still try to go to places where they definitely appreciate and love dogs. The food was really good there and the atmosphere and the waitress was fantastic read more

Cool laid back outdoor dining spot for burgers, sandwiches, baskets, beers! 4 stars are due to the view and the friendly service. All seating, with the exception of a bar, is outside on a deck. Great views, with reminders not to feed the gators and we did see a small gator. You can arrive by car, boat and motorcycle. Designated motorcycle parking and biker friendly spot. They have a yellow lab that primarily lays around outside but occasionally gets up to do rounds; I saw at least one customer with a dog, but not sure if it's cool to bring your pup with. Food was good, has chicken tender basket, friend grouper basket and BLT. It's a Pittsburgh Steelers spot, so if you are a Steelers fan you will probably find some compatriots here. (I didn't see any TVs outside, so not sure if it's possible to watch games) Servers were very friendly. It's a bit of a hidden gem back in a residential neighborhood; if you are in the area and looking for a laid back spot with some fresh air and a nice view, I would recommend checking this place out. read more

Dockside parking which is nice when you come In on the boat. Friendly staff, food is decent. Open air patio and dock side seating which is important during COVID...... screw you 2020! Beer was cold and the wait staff friendly. Little slow on the service but understandable during these times. read more

Service was a minor problem, but I don't believe the problem was our server. She had a lot of tables. She arrived within moments of us sitting down, brought our drinks right away and the food came out quickly. After that we saw little of our server and had to hunt her down to pay the checks. I enjoyed their Cajun style peal and eat shrimp. Nobody at the table complained so I'm assuming their food was good as well. Good place to stop for lunch on a long rural bike ride. read more

This is a Pittsburgh bar, we drove over 45 minutes and they didn't purchase the ticket. No Steelers on tv!! Omg!

Service was really slow and it wasn't busy at all. I ordered the gator bites for $12.99 and the portion was extremely small and I also ordered a side of fries which was not cooked completely. Had to waive the waitress down for refills and the check and there was only five tables and two people working. Unhappy with the service and the portion of food for the price read more

IGreat location but pricy so so food. Grouper basket was one small piece of fish. The French fries were good and plentyful..

Very cool old Florida place. The food was quite adequate - not gourmet but absolutely good enough. Beers were cold and reasonably priced. View and ambiance fabulous. Go. Enjoy. read more

Service is great! We ordered our appetizers and sandwiches. Ended up having sandwiches before the entrees! And they arrived 90 seconds after ordering it. Ordered the Hogswipe Sandwich and it came with only bread and pork. No sauce. No lettuce. No tomato. Simple and plain sandwich. Not to mention the menu says otherwise. Bread was stale and pork was from the morning. Also ordered the peel and eat shrimp with Cajun. I received cooked shrimp with a pile of seasoning on top of it. COMMON SENSE IT TO COOK THE SHRIMP WITH SPICES!!! Chicken tenders were Ok. Awesome lake bar- too bad food is mediocre. read more

Stumbled across this place on accident, and holy crap, were we glad that we did. Beers were cheap and cold. This place is chill, down to earth, and super Florida. Pull up in your car, or dock your boat. Saw multiple people arrive both ways. Seemed kid friendly. I can't speak to the food, but the service was great - it rained real hard earlier in the day before we arrived, and we wanted to sit outside in the uncovered area, closer to the water. We got napkins and tried wiping down the chairs ourselves, but a server noticed and ran over with a towel and helped us wipe it down properly. It was thoughtful and appreciated. Only complaint is that the volume of the music was crazy loud. Take it down to a 9 from a 12, and I would've given it 5 stars. Will come back to try some of the food. There is a covered seating area in the middle, picnic benches to one side, and on the other, there are more tables along the dock area. read more

The entertainment is always great, food is good, but the service.....man, is it SLOW!!!! From sitting down at 12:58, we didn't get our check until 3:14!!! The owner needs to give each server their own "station" instead of letting them serve tables based on rotation.....our server (for example) was waiting on tables in the very back on the water, up front by the singer and we were sitting at the picnic benches.....and she had more tables in between......if they could get the concept down of "stations" and rotate the servers so everyone has to have a rotation with a "less desirable" station, it would make the customers happier and in turn bring higher tips to the girls.....we waited for 12 minutes to get our drink orders taken, then I had to go into the screened bar to get us drinks because after 35 minutes they still weren't delivered and our food came at over an hour and a half later........barely warm......I know they cater to bikers and drinkers, but I think they are really missing the boat on other parts......I hope that with the opening of the new restaurant, they can get their act together and make it a great place for service as well as food and entertainment! read more

The setting and view way better than the food. Skip all except burgers and patty melts. That and beer will make it worth the visit.

We've been there twice lately and have had trouble getting our food and then our checks promptly. Today, three of us got our food and were finished with it before the others got their food and one of our group didn't ever get her food. LHH has increased their decks and table area. But it looks like they didn't expand the kitchen's ability to keep up with the increase in customers. I'd say you need to consider going on a weekday instead of on the weekends. read more
