Thanks to Harrison in Hollywood, Florida delivers a polished, modern dining experience that strikes a nice balance between upscale and approachable. The space itself is clean and thoughtfully designed, creating a relaxed yet refined atmosphere that works just as well for a full dinner as it does for cocktails and small plates.
The bar program stands out, with a strong selection of spirits and well-crafted drinks that are clearly made with care. It’s the kind of place where starting—or ending—the evening with a cocktail feels like part of the experience rather than an afterthought.
The menu leans elevated and a bit indulgent, with dishes that showcase bold flavors and thoughtful presentation. Highlights from the table included the duck liver pâté paired with cranberry jam and brioche, which delivered a rich, balanced bite, and the beef tartare with stracciatella and black truffle, offering a decadent, silky texture. The porcini mushroom risotto was comforting and earthy, while the Sicilian-style octopus brought a nice contrast in both texture and brightness.
The duck breast sous-vide with truffle purée leaned into deeper, more luxurious flavors, rounding out the savory portion of the meal. A simple side of spaghetti added a more classic touch to the spread. To finish, desserts kept the experience interesting—the Basque cheesecake with Nutella sauce was rich and satisfying, while the vanilla ice cream with truffle added an unexpected, slightly savory twist.
Service was another strong point. The waitress was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, offering helpful suggestions that enhanced the overall experience.
Not every dish landed equally for everyone at the table, but that’s often the case with a menu that takes some creative risks. Overall, Thanks to Harrison is a solid choice whether you’re looking for a full dinner or just a few appetizers and drinks. It’s a place worth returning to, especially if you enjoy a menu that mixes classic comfort with a more elevated, modern edge.
