Harry's Place - South Kesteven

Ranked #10 in the Sunday Times Best 100 Restaurants of 2015, this establishment is known for its signature dish: Caramel mousse brûlée with wild blackberries. The talented chefs behind this delightful creation are Harry and Caroline Hallam. On average, diners can expect to pay around £82 per person.

A grand idea. We may have missed the best of it as there were no other diners. No sign of Harry .... a disappointment. Reasonable food; good ingredients and some interesting sauces. Good wine choices. Overall a disappointment .... fine dining prices though certainly not a fine dining experience.

This is an exquisite place. We felt like we had been invited to dinner in a beautiful Georgian house. There was room for just 3 tables so the menu is very brief with 2 choices for each course. We both made the same choices: a selection of fruits in a light lemon syrup dressing for starter, cod in a wonderful sauce with melt in the mouth potatoes dauphinoise and a side salad for main, and I had a divine chocolate mousse with mascarpone and blackberries for dessert. There is always a fish and a meat course apparently so Harry's Place would not suit a vegetarian. The wine list was extensive and included some very good wines by the glass. The service was friendly and efficient. It was a perfect evening. Not cheap but highly recommended for a special treat.

We are only in the area once per annum, but we never miss a visit to see Harry Caroline and enjoy the fabulous fare on offer. The exclusive hand scribed Al a Carte menu offers just 2 starters, 2 mains and 2 desserts, served at one of the 3 tables to up to the 10-12 covers. The menu listing is dictated by the availability of top quality ingredients and everything on the menu is excellent. We now look forward to our next visit.

This restaurant offers a rare and exquisite dining experience that has never been matched in our years of eating out. Even just looking at the menu is a delight. Our taste buds are already excited for the amazing meal ahead. We have been to this restaurant several times over the years and have always been impressed. The menu is small but offers a perfect balance of choices for gourmet dining. The wine list by the glass is also excellent, ensuring that each course can be perfectly complemented. We started with champagne and the meal only got better from there. The intimate setting adds to the overall experience. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Grantham, but be sure to book in advance. We are consistently impressed by the exceptional service and quality of food and wine. We can't wait to come back again and again for this unique and wonderful dining experience.
