I ate lunch at Harmoni Market in Orlando's College Park neighborhood during an unexpected detour caused from an I-4 closure. The service was a bit weird when we entered, the group of employees standing at the bar ignored us for a few minutes until someone finally told us to sit anywhere. This awkwardness was followed by a drink being served in a cup covered in lipstick stains, but after the initial weirdness, the food and service were good.
I ordered the Rockin Goat Flatbread. It consisted of rock shrimp, arugula, goat cheese, homemade mozzarella, and tomato sauce all on a whole wheat flatbread (baked by the Olde Hearth Bread Company). Although they called it a flatbread, it was technically a variation of a pizza. Seafood and pizza combinations always seem strange to me, but I liked this a lot. I'd gladly get it again! My only real complaint was that Harmoni was really stingy with the goat cheese. For a flatbread with goat in the name, I was expecting less mozzarella and more goat cheese crumbles.
When looking over Harmoni Market's menu, it seemed to be somewhat overpriced (especially on the sandwiches). Since I shared the flatbread and there were plenty of rock shrimp on it, what I ordered wasn't too bad. It came out to about $5 a person and filled me up.
I love Harmoni! If you ever go back and are a fan of pasta, I highly recommend the spaghetti & meatballs. Seriously might be the best I've ever had.
ReplyDeleteyeah... but the place has serious sanitation issues. they don't really care if you walk through the kitchen area, and the floors have this nasty sludge there, and sometimes the floor drains back up and the whole joint smells like a septic tank. lots of drain flies too.
ReplyDeleteI loved it here, mostly for the ambience. I am a sucker for the atmosphere and just love the adjacent market.
