We had Tapas and thoroughly enjoyed it. Shout out to Max our server who was not only an excellent waiter but also an excellent tour guide with top recommendations for things to do in the area.

Susmy was very attentive. Loved the tableside mojito preparation. The hosts accomodated our reservation quickly and we were able to switch from inside to outside with ease. Always a great experience at the Columbia.

loved it, may seafoods to try from Columbia. Pitcher of mojitos to start was great idea....Jenn was wonderful server. First time there....will be back.

We eat here frequently. Large restaurant but with impeccable food and service. It sets the standard by which other restaurants should be judged.

Rob

We love this place. Very authentic food with something for everyone!! You must try the 1905 salad

Food was excellent and the experience was top-tier from start to finish. Carlos was amazing — from the moment I walked in until the time I left, he made everything seamless and welcoming. I had the mahi mahi as my entrée and it was so good — perfectly prepared and full of flavor. And the 1905 Salad was absolutely amazing... truly lived up to the hype. Overall, an awesome experience. I can't wait to come back!

Try to sit outside. Inside was terribly noisy and crowded. Servers had to squeeze through tables when serving. Food was great, however.

Columbia is a great place for dinner or lunch. Best servers I've ever had. Ambiance was wonderful.

We had a great night celebrating my wife's birthday. The food was great, our server was awesome and our table was great. We've been to Ybor many times but our first time to St Armand's Circle Columbia. It was amazing. Thank you for a great night.

They have quite a few issues to work out.They tried to serve martinis in wine glasses. This is never acceptable. Even if all their proper glasses were broken, replacements are a next-day delivery away. Our waitress was overly intrusive, constantly interrupting our dinner conversation as if she were the main event. Drink orders were mixed up several times.The food itself was just average.

Can’t say enough good things about the Columbia! Yes, it is busy during most hours which is why a reservation is recommended but it is worth the wait. Highly recommend the 1905 Salad! 🥗

So many wonderful meals and memories, but this was one of the best if not the absolute best! We loved our beautiful waitress Cristi! We just arrived here from Michigan and will be here for the winter season. We will be sure to come back and request her!
