About Harvest
Harvest Restaurant was founded in 2008 in Oro Valley. In October 2011 new ownership was transferred to local Tucsonan’s Reza and Lisa Shapouri.
​
Harvest is dedicated to simple food done right. We source high-quality ingredients, prepare everything from scratch, and serve it with genuine hospitality. Our team takes pride in offering a comfortable, welcoming space for the Oro Valley community to enjoy fresh, seasonal dishes and thoughtfully crafted drinks.
From happy hour gatherings to weekend dinners, we’re here to make every visit feel like home.
“Fresh Ingredients and Seasonally Inspired” continues to remain the mantra and philosophy of the restaurant. We are family owned and operated. As a group, we are involved in everything including the creation of the dishes, cocktails, and carefully selected wines we serve.

Our entire leadership group has an extensive background in the restaurant industry.
