Our dishes are prepared with love using the freshest local ingredients sourced from each region, served in a cozy atmosphere by a staff that will make you feel like you are part of the family. Join us for lunch or brunch, or let us cater for you. (your place or ours) And embark on a flavorful adventure that pays homage to the bounty of the sea and the culinary heritage of the Northeast, the South, and Florida.

Helm is the first brick-and-mortar for Haran Hospitality and with dedication will not be the last. We are here to deliver not just food and beverage but an experience that will make you want to come back time and time again. Michael was born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, studied in Rhode Island, and lived in Maine. Heidi was born in upstate New York, grew up in South Carolina, put her roots in Florida, and is never pulling them up again. Those geographical influences will be found in the plates and cases of Helm and we can't wait to share them with you.
