“My very first visit and I cannot wait to return. Everything from the moment we walked in till the moment we left was perfect. The service, food, atmosphere everything was wonderful. I highly recommend visiting, you will not be disappointed.”
“Amazing food and amazing service too. Mariah good customer service.”
“Food is horrible. I ordered the Bayou pasta. It was dry and it had no seasoning. All I tasted was noodles on the first bite. O, they charge 4 dollars for extra sauce for the pasta. Like really! If you ever had food in New Orleans, you will know this ain't it. I don't know what others see in the food. Maybe each location is different. I went to the one in Rockledge/Cocoa Beach, Fl area. All I know is that next time I am "Walking On" right passed this restaurant to another one that's better.... hopefully.”
“A very delicious place — definitely worth trying. The food tastes homemade, with amazing khinkali and khachapuri. Every dish is made with heart. Highly recommend — it’s truly worth it.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“St. Pete—Literally sitting at dinner now, & our server, Enzo, has been absolutely WONDERFUL. He’s kind, knowledgable & engaging with his tables—all things I love to see in customer service areas (it can be such a lost concept!) We love Olivia (their arancini is the best we’ve ever had && my husband & I each get our own), but I’d request to sit in Enzo’s section if he’s working in the future.”
“We ate at Miller’s in Orlando, our server Bracus was the most attentive amazing human being! He has beautiful flowers, polished silverware, gum, and hand sanitizer in his section! His attention to detail was on point! We will return just for him! Thank you Bracus for making us feel special!”

“One of the best pie in the world! I have had pie in Napoli too. The secret is the wood oven, fresh mozzarella and great sauce!”
“We LOVED this restaurant. Don't be fooled by the outside appearance, as it is very quaint and nicely decorated - they even have nice linens on the tables. The service was stellar and the food was beyond delicious! We will definitely plan to visit again, when next in Tampa.”

“A wonderful, authentic Pakistani restaurant. It is so nice to find a relaxing place where you can hear the person across the table in a quiet conversation and enjoy absolutely wonderful food. We drive 30 minutes on a regular basis just to enjoy a quiet meal here. A family run business, where courtesy and professionalism is always present.”

“Found this neat little place for drinks and a quick bite to eat while waiting to check into our room in the SoHo area. Great vibe and the food was fantastic! Happy Hour menu had a good selection of Tapas and drinks and was very reasonably priced. The bartenders were very personable.”
“I have been with #NSTrsnsformation since January. I absolutely love their food and personal fitness recommendations. I first thought…this food probably isn’t going to taste very good because I’ve tried others and they weren’t too good. Not to mention being over charged at times or getting meals when I didn’t order them. Nutrition Solutions takes our busy lives into account and give us 3 whole days to alter, or suspend our order with the click of a button. No Problem! Every week get a updated menu and customer service is like having your own personal cheer leader, who only want to encourage you and see you succeed. If you haven’t given NS a shot or skeptical about it, so was I. I’m glad I stepped out on Faith. 4 weeks in with no regrets. Blessings to you You are worth the change Niecy”

The lady at the counter had really customer service always on the check of meeting and wanting. recommend this ice cream place!”
“Just had lunch there for my son's bday. Couldn't be more pleased. Clayton our server was so gracious and funny . for the amount of food we ordered with dessert. It came under $200.00 so much bang for your buck. Will be going back very soon.”
“Loveee this restaurant. I’ve been 4 times this month 🤭😂 This weekend will be the 5th. I come from Lakeland with my husband who is Lebanese 🇱🇧💕”

“🤤🤗Amazing lunch at On Swann in Tampa today! They accommodated us with a lovely outdoor table for our dog Sofie. After our meal, our amazing server Caroline surprised us with a complimentary Bourbon Bread Pudding, which was incredible! Finishing up our Tampa tourist adventure.”
“This restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience that truly stands out. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, setting the stage for what can only be described as a culinary adventure. The menu is thoughtfully curated and absolutely outstanding—every dish is bursting with bold, unforgettable flavors that showcase the chef’s creativity and attention to detail.

I wholeheartedly recommend it—hands down, 1000% worth it!”
“I can’t believe it’s been over 3 years since Noble Rice opened and this was our very first visit! It absolutely blew us away. The service was impeccable. Hostess Angel greeted us warmly, and our server Allison A. was simply outstanding ~ easily one of the best experiences we’ve had anywhere in Tampa. We started with drinks, and every single one was perfect. The Lychee Martini was smooth and floral, the Espresso Martini had just the right kick, and the Haku ~ their version of a Moscow Mule ~ was phenomenal. My husband is a self-proclaimed Moscow Mule connoisseur, and he gave it high praise. The food? Next-level. The Tuna Carpaccio was the star of the show ~ literally melted in our mouths. We also loved the Classic Poké, Tempura Poké Rolls, and the Tekka Roll ~ all fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented with different types of soy causes for each. The only item that didn’t quite hit the mark for us was the Hanabi Maki ~ still very fresh, just not our personal favorite. I’m sure many others enjoy it! What really stood out was the service ~ something that has unfortunately been on the decline across Tampa in recent years. But at Noble Rice, everyone went above and beyond. Allison didn’t just take our order, she asked thoughtful questions about our taste preferences, made drink and dessert recommendations (the Panna Cotta dessert was heavenly), and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Our only wish? Larger portions ~ because everything was so good, we didn’t want it to end. An amazing 18th anniversary dinner!! We’ll absolutely be back. Thank you, Noble Rice, for making it so special.”
“I am a huge fan of ice cream! The food served at Ice Sssscreamin/Tampa is, by far, the Best I've ever tasted. And I have tasted a lot! And what a great variety! Service and Atmosphere are both outstanding . I felt really welcome and it was a pleasure to be in such a clean, pleasant environment! My compliments to the owners and staff!!!!!”
“One of the best restaurants in town! The quality of food and service in excellent and you can taste the passion for good cooking in every dish that comes to the table. Go to Rosenheim and enjoy great food and exotic atmosphere to complete your experience! Going back soon.”
“A fabulous true Italian restaurant. Don’t be fooled by the others. If you would like a true taste of Italian food come to Fammi. If you are Italian please come eat here. Luca and Erica are amazing cooks and hosts. Diego took very good care of us. I have spent time in Italy. My mom lived in Italy. She and her husband Giancarlo cooked Italian food. This took me back to their beautiful and delicious dinners. Treat yourself to a real meal and come to Fammi.”

“100% the place to go for a special, quiet and enjoyable dinner. The prestige menu was fabulous, and the wine pairings were right on par. My wife and I brought our 4 month old and the atmosphere was so nice, she just slept the whole time so we were able to enjoy. Our server Hannah was phenomenal and made sure our experience was special as this was our dinner for both of our birthdays which fall on the same week. I would recommend EBBE 10x over the bad experience and treatment I received from Lilac just the night before.
My only complaint is their “pay ahead” system, which seemed to have glitched somehow in regards to our receipt and left us unable to leave the server a tip on the card, which just did not sit right with me after spending $1000 on food and receiving such wonderful service from Hannah, so I was sure to tip in cash.”

“So glad that we discovered Willa this evening. Can't believe that we hadn't found it previously. But discovering it on a Sunday night turned out to be quite a treat. That is their half price wine bottle night as well as the buy one get one chicken schnitzel night. The schnitzel along with it s. Lemon/ dill potato salad were delicious but the focaccia bread starter may have been the star of the show. And then we followed up with some of their homemade, soft serve and absolutely incredible warm, delicious chocolate chip cookie. Our server, Duncan, was terrific. We will be back!!! Just sorry I did not make any pictures”
“If you like French cuisine you must try this place !! The food is excellent must try the escargot with spicy compound butter !! The tuna crudo was so delicious!! Then the duck confetti and wagyu bone in rib eye total chef kiss !! Each and every dish we order was cooked in perfection!!
Must mention Laura who took care of our table, she was amazing , we will be back for sure !!”
“I’m in Greece. No, not really. We just found the best Greek restaurant ever. It’s called Psomi. My goodness, so delicious. On February 20, our first time here, we had bread basket/psomi bread, le meunier butter, organic extra virgin olive oil, jam, and Greek scrambled with caramelized onion, roasted cherry tomato, creamy feta, grilled baguette. We liked the restaurant so much we came back the next day. We had chicken souvlaki - Greek yogurt brined organic breast, tzatziki, tomato, red onion, stuffed with cut fries, wrapped in a warm pita. Then we came back again on Sunday February 23 for some Greek style breakfast.”
“My first time at a Brazilian Steakhouse and it was awesome. The ribeye and filet were my favorites of the night, but everything was really good. All you can eat quality cuts of steak, lamb, chicken, shrimp, salmon, and pork for only $62.50..yes please! My wife who is not a big eater had the salad bar, which had a huge selection of many different foods...calling it a salad bar is far far inadequate. As for the meat coming to your table, don't be shy about asking for what you want if you are not seeing it. Everyone there was friendly and attentive. They even indulged my odd request for ketchup. My wife said the lobster bisque was the best she ever had!”
“Wow! We had two food trucks (2 Rowdy Roosters and The Chief's Cantina) at our school's Prom. The kids absolutely loved it. They provided great options, the delicious food, and everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. Kim was a pleasure to work with to coordinate the truck and menu options. We will definitely book them for a future event!”
“My wife and I wanted to try a new date night spot in town and Tanto did not disappoint. The vibe is very intimate with a dark and exclusive feel. The menu is limited but everything we tried was immaculate and the staff presentation of each plate and cocktail was appreciated and memorable. Will recommend to any friends looking for a unique fine dining experience.”
“Very good 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟se lo recomiendo buen servicio buena atención y todo fresco all good Services all good 3/7/25 i by here yesterday estuve ayer aquí gracias thank you”
“One of the best steaks I have ever had! And the onion soup is off the hook. Then you get a kitchen and wine cellar tour. What a neat experience. 5 stars!!”

“We had a wonderful breakfast cooked to perfection. Sherry P. was our server and went out of her way to make sure everything was excellent. She was so personable and kind and it was a pleasure to meet her. When we are in Tampa again, we will definitely be back and ask for Sherry!”
“Wanted to expand my horizons and check out some bars I normally would not frequent. Was pleasantly surprised by the great food, service, and atmosphere Drink had to offer. Bathrooms are a 10/10. My only complaint is all of the midgets that scrattle around the bar. Slightly off putting. Will still be recommending to a friend and coming back in the near future. Oh also
Vegetarian options: Flowers in the yard. Free
Kid-friendliness: NoUnless you consider midgets children”
“I had Raise the Roost cater my daughter’s first birthday. Not only were they on time with delivery but the food was fresh and tasty! And to top it off the customer service was excellent. They gave my daughter a birthday balloon and a card signed by all the employees. What a surprise! We will definitely be eating from them again!”
“Went Friday night around 10:30 Pm after leaving TPA after coming down with family from New Jersey and was met with Great service from our waiter Tony. He was friendly and very helpful on what meal we could get. Definitely coming again before we leave back to New Jersey 😁”
“Dr. Aboda Such a friendly and supportive environment for not only those newly diagnosed, but also survivors and anyone close to cancer survivors. He helped me with an easier healing to my "new normal" and helped in finding alternative, complementary treatments. I Highly recommended doc oso and advise anyone stuffing illness please contact him directly via. #DrAboda”
“Fast and polite staff ( this visit). I am surprised the cook sent out over medium eggs instead of over easy as I requested, but still good. The cash register area was filthy though with food and grease caked on the printer as well as the counter and elec. cables. Half the world is blind.”

“First time eating from here and Oh my goodness!! Everything is absolutely delicious! The bowls are packed with so much yummy goodness and the cucumber yogurt has that amazing taste of garlic in it! 😍🤤 The falafel is perfectly seasoned and sesame on it makes it even tastier than it already is. Beyond impressed! My new favorite place. Seriously, truly wonderful food! ❤️”
“As we all know, many African American people are lactose intolerant but I've never had a problem with Bo's ice cream hurting my stomach or giving Me bubble guts 🤣. Plus their ice cream is delicious. I don't even waist my time eating ice cream from any where else. I simply hold My horses, as the od saying goes, until I can make it over to Bo's.
My father use to take us there when we were kids. When i think about it, it's been around 4 decades, that ive been going to Bo's. Wow!!!”
“Was there last night got to meet Jessica!!Everyone was awesome. The food was awesome. The pumpkin churros are the best in the world. The service (Dax?)was awesome. I definitely recommend you go there for good food and a good time!”

They made my birthday celebration extra special! 🎂Can’t wait to go back!”

“We went for dinner tonight on Mother's Day based on Google Reviews. The food was a beautiful, fresh, and DELICIOUS! The owner came out to see how everything was and gave us a little background story & family history (which I always love). Super friendly, family oriented. DELICIOUS! Try it!! Tell your friends. Definitely a hidden gem 💎”
“11/5 STARS, BEST SUSHI I'VE EVER EATEN! Best waiter ever TRAVIS, see him, you will be taken care of!!!. Look how amazing the food and atmosphere is!! It's All You Can Eat for $30, WOWOW! I'm posting the menu, look if you buy too things the all you can eat makes more sense. The boba tea and green tea pots taste heavenly!! The sushi is mouthwatering, portions are great! With all you can eat you can do this until you are stuffed. Look at the presentation?! It tastes better than it looks even. Menu is one of the most robust I've ever seen. I'm posting their small menu, but the in restaurant one is like a dozen pages. Its all delicious. The chefs are amazing and very nice. The wait staff is incredible. This is the second time I've gone and cannot speak highly enough. They should get awards for best sushi in the area, but really anywhere in the country. They had like 14 people in the restaurant working which is amazing considering Walmart has like 5 people working nowadays. Their staff was super attentive and food came out in like 5 minutes. I cannot speak highly enough, this is my forever go to place and so reasonable with how expensive everything is with inflation. Go here, seriously or wait, don't I' want all the foods. It will make you very happy, nice job Ajisai 3, you truly are the best of the best!!! #ajisaiayce ; *WAIT I forgot to mention something REALLY important... The All you can eat sushi that's $30, its FREEEEEEEEE on your birthday, bring your ID and I think I said, its free, like free like Free Willy free. Who does anything free nowadays?! He77 yea Ajisai, you truly are the best of the best, you take care of your customers like I have never seen and on top of the food is YUMMY to the maximum. Can I leave more reviews, can I get you an award for your complete satisfaction for customers? I'm posting to every site on the Internet, its the least I can do. If my ex-wife satisfied me half as much as this this, we would still be married. Can we start dating? I think you would take care of all my needs. The best way to a man's heart is through their stomach, well here is my heart cause my stomach is fulfilled.”
“It was my First time eating here and it was so good! The portion sizes overall were a great size for the price. Around $55 with Uber eats Texas delivery charges, and driver tip. I had the Birria quesadilla, the large portion of rice, Chips with queso, Tres leches cake, and the Horchata for my drink. I was hungry and I wanted to get the full experience of what the restaurant had to offer. Leftovers are always a bonus! For my first order, I ordered for delivery on Uber Eats. Despite being delivery, Everything was hot, fresh and well packaged. I will say the Birria quesadilla was a little soggy on the bottom, but it tasted fantastic! Some of the best Beria I’ve had. The queso tasted homemade, flavorful, fresh and delicious! The portion of the tortilla chips, took up an entire brown paper bag full! (in my opinion when I order Mexican food for delivery and I see a big brown paper bag stuffed completely full of seasoned tortilla chips, that’s how I know the rest of the food is going to taste amazing!) I love the small detail of the seasoned chips. It’s like putting sprinkles on a cupcake. It’s not needed, but it makes it better. Everything was flavorful and well seasoned. My Birria quesadilla came with small sides of guacamole, sour cream, and pico de gallo. Even though the food didn’t need it at all and was flavorful and delicious without it. A few small critique I can give is that Tres Leche cake piece that I got was extremely small unfortunately, which I wasn’t expecting. It was only three small bites if that, but it was really delicious! My second critique is, I wish they offered a bigger cup of Horchata like they have the larger option for the Rice. Horchata is one of my favorite drinks, but honestly I can’t complain too much because everything including the Horchata and Tres leches cake was so good! I guess my only complaint is that there wasn’t more Horchata and Tres Leches cake. The slightly soggy texture of the Birria quesadilla I contributed to the fact that it was delivered still hot in a Styrofoam container, & I don’t consider that the restaurants fault. if I was giving a rating I would still give it a 10 out of 10. 100 percent! I will be eating here again, these small critiques that I have would not even change my rating! And I have leftovers so there’s some bonus points!Delicious food with overall large portions for the price!You guys did a great job! Thank you so much for preparing my amazing meal !!🩷 I will tell my friends about this place and bring my family back here to sit at the restaurant next time instead of ordering from Uber Eats for delivery. fantastic food. Highly recommended!”
“We went to Seasons 52 for Mother’s Day and had a great experience. We hadn’t been there in years, so we decided it was time to revisit. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy for the holiday, we were seated right away.
Jessica was our server, and she was very friendly and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The Paloma cocktail was spot on and a perfect way to start dinner.
For an appetizer, we shared the crab- and shrimp-stuffed mushrooms. While there wasn’t a ton of crab, the flavor was excellent, and we really enjoyed them. For our entrées, I had the lamb loin with mashed potatoes and asparagus, and my wife had the Chilean sea bass with vegetables and rice. Both dishes were absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly.
We finished with two of their signature mini desserts: a chocolate option and another with mascarpone and cannoli flavors, both of which were outstanding. Overall, it was a great Mother’s Day dinner and definitely reminded us of our previous visits to Seasons 52. We’ll be back much sooner next time.”
“A couple of nights ago was our first time at Predalina after their interior remodel, and it definitely did not disappoint. Our server, Julio, and the team took excellent care of us and made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I really enjoyed the Lou Lou Cosmo, which was a fun and unexpected favorite, and the espresso martini was absolutely delicious. For dinner, we had the bronzino fillets with sides: roasted mushrooms and spinach ~ everything was perfectly prepared, but the roasted mushrooms deserve a special highlight. They were so, so good. We started with the charred cauliflower with macadamia nuts, and it was a fantastic appetizer. For dessert, the Phyllo Crunch was outstanding, especially with the 3 generous scoops of ice cream from Chill Bros, right next door. Highly recommend the dessert and everything mentioned above! What truly stood out was the attention to service. The manager, Lindsay, stopped by our table at the end of the night to make sure everything was to our satisfaction~ and it absolutely was. We shared feedback about the beautiful new remodel and complimented the great service, which she was genuinely happy to hear. She mentioned that her goal is for Predalina to have the best service in Tampa, and based on our experience, they are well on their way.”
“I ordered gyro and cheese pide and French fries to go.. Gentleman very helpful with my selection. Food was cook to order and he made me Turkish Black Tea while I waited. Place very clean and the food was delicious 🤤 🫶🏾 I definitely will go there often especially since they’re close by”
“I had lunch here last weekend and the atmosphere was very nice! The staff were very attentive and gave us great service. It appears to be a family owned restaurant and everything tasted super fresh. The heat levels were truly perfect (I prefer hot and it’s hot) lol. The menu has a lot of great options. Paul’s Fusion Kitchen might arguably have the BEST Tom Yum soup in Tampa - maybe Florida! The drunken noodles w/shrimp were divine as well. You receive nice portion sizes. I highly recommend this restaurant for lovers of Asian cuisine. Just last night I picked up 2 orders of the Tom Yum soup to go. Yes, it’s literally that good! 10/10”
“Came here with my kids and Aunt who is visiting us. We absolutely loved the food, atmosphere, and service. We had Kam serve us and she was amazing! She was so kind to my kids, answered all our questions about the food and ingredients. She was thoughtful without us even having to ask. Service that is rare in today’s society. We are very thankful for the quality and service. We will be back.”
“The Heights Lounge has become my favorite spot in the city, all thanks to Dan. Dan's a mixologist there, and he's not just good - he's on another level. The range of drinks this guy can create is insane. He's got everything from kava and kratom to the best coffee and tea. And the hookah blends - are great. Dan's a great dude to hang out with. He's always got time for a chat, even when the place is packed. He remembers your name, your favorite drink, and he's interested in what you think. The Heights Lounge is fantastic. The vibe is just right - I've brought a bunch of my friends there, and every single one of them likes it. It's rare to find a place like this. If you haven't been to The Heights Lounge, do yourself a favor and check it out. Ask for Dan, tell him what you like, and prepare to have your mind blown. You'll thank me later.”
“The food at Cali’s is consistently fresh and delicious. I have sampled the menu; sour dough pizza, creative bowls and recently, the market salad with chickpea bites. All fabulous. The atmosphere here is welcoming and the staff are personable and attentive. Cali’s in New Tampa is terrific!!”
“i stopped here after dropping my sister off at tampa airport and WOW…. exceeded my expectations. first of all… they have a banana bread latte?? delicious. so good. i’m also so so grateful they have a vegan option that is not only so good but also very healthy (tofu scram versus a processed fake egg). service was very quick and the vibe is great. 12/10!!”
“last night my husband and i went for our 47th anniversary.it is our go to for special occasions.we went on tomahawk tuesday everything was exceptional ,steak was tender and juicy and the sides were perfect.the server and the floor manager was very attentive it was a great dining experience thank you”

“Our first time at Capital Grille and it was amazing. The steaks were seared and cooked to perfection. Mashed potatoes were the creamiest we've ever had. Service was perfect. They remembered our anniversary and had a rose on the table, hearts sprinkled on the table and a beautiful card. They also gave us free desserts. Just a wonderful time.”
“I am a pastry chef which makes me super selective on what I like. I don't want something that just looks amazing, it has to taste amazing as well, so if you have never got a cake from Cakes Plus Tampa you should, i highly recommend them!!! This is the amazing bakery my hubby used for my requested Chopper themed birthday cake! They also made my amazing Super Bowl stadium birthday cake 2yrs ago. Hubby also said they have amazing customer service and loves that you talk directly to Chef Mario Torres every step of the way from ordering to picking up. He has given Chef Mario the theme each time and has been blown away by the results when he goes to pick up. Thank you Chef Mario!”
“Koya is an experience not to be missed. The food is a fencing match of flavor and creativity. I would compare the passion that Chef Eric and his team bring to the culinary space to that of Steve Irwin and the way his eyes would light up while talking about wildlife conservation. The minute you walk into the guest dining area, you are wrapped in the warmth of welcoming intimacy as the team greats you by name and gently guides you to your carefully selected seat. Through basic observation, you can tell the Chef purposely designed the space to make the guests the focus of the evening. This is clearly shown in how the illumination in the room is focus on the guest seats in comparison to the rest of the space. The contrast of the natural wood counters against the shadowy background provides an understated grace and refined simplicity without the pretentious nature occasionally found in fine dining. The music is modern, melodic, and upbeat. It aptly fills the room without being overbearing so that conversation can be had at soft levels. The cleanliness of the restaurant is crisp from front entry to rear restroom. With that being said, the food is the star of the show. Simply put, it is an eye opening and daring journey. Chef Eric takes you through his mind as he lays his very thoughts on the plate in front of you. Each course is assembled with intent and purpose. The dishes expose the guests to gastronomical revelations that will leave you wanting more and forcing you to ask questions like; "What kind of madman created this and how/where do I get more of it?" Chef Eric has a story to tell, and each dish is an enthralling chapter of a book you never want to end. There is a sense of tradition and innovation that accentuates the culinary bravery that is Chef Eric and his team of exceptionally talented and personable chefs. My single, solitary negative is that I can never eat enough.”
“Went here for a birthday dinner and had Felipe as our server and Nick as our Server Assistant. Everything was wonderful from start to finish! Great and friendly service, very attentive and the food was just amazing. Our waters never ran empty. Felipe was very knowledgeable of the menu and answered any questions thoroughly. I loved this spot! Safe to say I will definitely be back!! Thank you Eddie V’s.”
“We went for their Valentines day pre-fee meal and it was incredible! Each dish was fantastic and the service was so professional and wonderful for the whole experience. It is a beautiful location and we were able to hold a conversation on our romantic evening. Would love to go back and try their regular menu.”
“I want to say thank you for the amazing experience tonight! It has been 3 years since we lived in Tampa. Wife and I knew we needed to go back and saved the best for last, Beccofino. Not only was it just as we remembered, it was better. The small twists in flavor you added to original recipes....perfect. Hospitality is the best you can get in Tampa for a personalized dining. Thank you sir! We will be back!”
“Kinjo is not just a restaurant, but a true experience. As soon as you walk in, the front of the house staff are warm and inviting which immediately sets the tone and puts you at ease. The restaurant itself is a very intimate feel which in my opinion is what makes it feel special and personal. Anywhere you sit will be great, however, I highly recommend sitting at the chef’s counter as it truly makes your dining experience feel that much more special. You can see how much intention was put into every dish from the starters to dessert. Every meal feels especially crafted for you and the intention behind the favor profile of each bite results in a transcendent dining experience. I truly enjoyed chef Jada and chef Javier taking the time to explain the dish to me, you can truly see their passion on each dish. It truly feels like you’re dining with friends. While the dishes are certainly upscale and elevated, the experience feels intimate and personal making each course better than the last. If I had to say my favorite dish; the crab pasta literally brought a tear to my eye, that’s how fantastic it is. Kinjo has brought something special to Tampa and I can’t wait to see all of the amazing dishes they create next.”
“The staff was very nice and the inside the lounge was also nice. It was only a $15 cover charge to get inside.
My biggest issue was the was the music so loud inside I couldn’t hear anyone. It has very hard to just order a drink cause the bartender couldn’t hear me and I couldn’t hear her. I was writing in the notes apps, just to talk to my friends cause I couldn’t hear them. My ears were ringing when I walked out of the lounge.
The second time I went was a lot better experience. Still loud but I could talk to my friends.”
“I can’t believe it’s been over 3 years since Noble Rice opened and this was our very first visit! It absolutely blew us away. The service was impeccable. Hostess Angel greeted us warmly, and our server Allison A. was simply outstanding ~ easily one of the best experiences we’ve had anywhere in Tampa. We started with drinks, and every single one was perfect. The Lychee Martini was smooth and floral, the Espresso Martini had just the right kick, and the Haku ~ their version of a Moscow Mule ~ was phenomenal. My husband is a self-proclaimed Moscow Mule connoisseur, and he gave it high praise. The food? Next-level. The Tuna Carpaccio was the star of the show ~ literally melted in our mouths. We also loved the Classic Poké, Tempura Poké Rolls, and the Tekka Roll ~ all fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented with different types of soy causes for each. The only item that didn’t quite hit the mark for us was the Hanabi Maki ~ still very fresh, just not our personal favorite. I’m sure many others enjoy it! What really stood out was the service ~ something that has unfortunately been on the decline across Tampa in recent years. But at Noble Rice, everyone went above and beyond. Allison didn’t just take our order, she asked thoughtful questions about our taste preferences, made drink and dessert recommendations (the Panna Cotta dessert was heavenly), and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Our only wish? Larger portions ~ because everything was so good, we didn’t want it to end. An amazing 18th anniversary dinner!! We’ll absolutely be back. Thank you, Noble Rice, for making it so special.”

“We went to the location on Gandy Boulevard today. We were just passing by and saw it so looked up the menu online. At this particular location there was a kiosk to order and no indoor seating. There was a taphouse next-door that had outdoor seating so we grabbed a drink and ate our food there. The portions were large and everything was absolutely delicious! I was delighted to find vegan options. Everything was well seasoned and very flavorful! We would definitely come back again!”
“Great energy from Rodney and staff! The food is amazing. You can taste the difference in the ingredients. They truly take the time and go to great lengths to source the best ingredients. This isn’t regular fruit you can find at Publix and you feel different eating this. There’s actual nutrients in this. Ice cream one can feel good about eating loads of. And let’s not forget the Sea Moss! Great source of iodine which everyone needs. In my research on my patient population I’ve found everyone is iodine deficient. People can correct this by visiting this establishment and asking for the Sea Moss. Your health will improve dramatically and you will feel more energy.”
“I don’t go to Tampa often anymore, but was in the area as I was dropping my daughter off to prom and couldn’t leave Tampa without going to my old stomping grounds Thee Burger Spot, this place is always hands down serving the best burgers in the area!! Don’t ever pass this place up, my go too burger has always been the creamy one with peanut butter, but was craving the big smack burger and OMG it didn’t disappoint, I didn’t leave bloated like other places or overly stuffed the portions and even the onion thangs were just so on point!! The service here is top notch!! The burger was perfectly coked and seasoned!! Definitely going to have to come back here more often!! Thank you so much!”
“One of my favorite spots in Tampa! I've been here multiple times, and what keeps me coming back is how consistent they are. Every visit has been just as good as the last.
Everything we've tried has been delicious, and all of their skewers are top-notch. The Yangzhou fried rice is hands down the best I've ever had—packed with flavor and perfectly prepared every time. The sweet and sour pork is another standout dish and one that I find myself ordering again and again.
If you're looking for a place that delivers amazing food consistently, this is definitely worth a visit.”
“Delicious food, flawless service! We used Johnny C’s for a corporate luncheon, and they absolutely knocked it out of the park! The trays of pasta were hot and fresh, the meatballs were a crowd favorite, and the garlic knots disappeared within minutes. Picked up was on time and the setup was effortless due to the trays being ready to go! Highly recommend for any event—you won’t be disappointed!”
“This place is stupid good. I don't even know the name of what I ordered, it was one of the first things on there. Got it with grilled chicken and the layered pancakes. Make sure you get extra sauce on the side. Get a green tea. I've never been, but it felt like I popped into someplace in Tokyo and had some local food. You order everything by yourself on the screen as soon as you walk in, then they call your name when it's ready. Seating for about eight groups of people or so. Go there immediately.”
“I stopped by over the weekend to see what the hype was all about. My family has been hooked on Zamars for a while now, so I had to try it for myself. I ordered the regular Zamar sweet wings, mac & shrimp, and the food absolutely did not disappoint.
Zamar took our order and he was very easygoing and helpful. The customer service was excellent, and he seems like a very humble person. I’ll definitely be back!”
“I’m in Greece. No, not really. We just found the best Greek restaurant ever. It’s called Psomi. My goodness, so delicious. On February 20, our first time here, we had bread basket/psomi bread, le meunier butter, organic extra virgin olive oil, jam, and Greek scrambled with caramelized onion, roasted cherry tomato, creamy feta, grilled baguette. We liked the restaurant so much we came back the next day. We had chicken souvlaki - Greek yogurt brined organic breast, tzatziki, tomato, red onion, stuffed with cut fries, wrapped in a warm pita. Then we came back again on Sunday February 23 for some Greek style breakfast.”
“11/5 STARS, BEST SUSHI I'VE EVER EATEN! Best waiter ever TRAVIS, see him, you will be taken care of!!!. Look how amazing the food and atmosphere is!! It's All You Can Eat for $30, WOWOW! I'm posting the menu, look if you buy too things the all you can eat makes more sense. The boba tea and green tea pots taste heavenly!! The sushi is mouthwatering, portions are great! With all you can eat you can do this until you are stuffed. Look at the presentation?! It tastes better than it looks even. Menu is one of the most robust I've ever seen. I'm posting their small menu, but the in restaurant one is like a dozen pages. Its all delicious. The chefs are amazing and very nice. The wait staff is incredible. This is the second time I've gone and cannot speak highly enough. They should get awards for best sushi in the area, but really anywhere in the country. They had like 14 people in the restaurant working which is amazing considering Walmart has like 5 people working nowadays. Their staff was super attentive and food came out in like 5 minutes. I cannot speak highly enough, this is my forever go to place and so reasonable with how expensive everything is with inflation. Go here, seriously or wait, don't I' want all the foods. It will make you very happy, nice job Ajisai 3, you truly are the best of the best!!! #ajisaiayce ; *WAIT I forgot to mention something REALLY important... The All you can eat sushi that's $30, its FREEEEEEEEE on your birthday, bring your ID and I think I said, its free, like free like Free Willy free. Who does anything free nowadays?! He77 yea Ajisai, you truly are the best of the best, you take care of your customers like I have never seen and on top of the food is YUMMY to the maximum. Can I leave more reviews, can I get you an award for your complete satisfaction for customers? I'm posting to every site on the Internet, its the least I can do. If my ex-wife satisfied me half as much as this this, we would still be married. Can we start dating? I think you would take care of all my needs. The best way to a man's heart is through their stomach, well here is my heart cause my stomach is fulfilled.”
“We went to Seasons 52 for Mother’s Day and had a great experience. We hadn’t been there in years, so we decided it was time to revisit. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy for the holiday, we were seated right away.
Jessica was our server, and she was very friendly and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of throughout the meal. The Paloma cocktail was spot on and a perfect way to start dinner.
For an appetizer, we shared the crab- and shrimp-stuffed mushrooms. While there wasn’t a ton of crab, the flavor was excellent, and we really enjoyed them. For our entrées, I had the lamb loin with mashed potatoes and asparagus, and my wife had the Chilean sea bass with vegetables and rice. Both dishes were absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly.
We finished with two of their signature mini desserts: a chocolate option and another with mascarpone and cannoli flavors, both of which were outstanding. Overall, it was a great Mother’s Day dinner and definitely reminded us of our previous visits to Seasons 52. We’ll be back much sooner next time.”
“I had lunch here last weekend and the atmosphere was very nice! The staff were very attentive and gave us great service. It appears to be a family owned restaurant and everything tasted super fresh. The heat levels were truly perfect (I prefer hot and it’s hot) lol. The menu has a lot of great options. Paul’s Fusion Kitchen might arguably have the BEST Tom Yum soup in Tampa - maybe Florida! The drunken noodles w/shrimp were divine as well. You receive nice portion sizes. I highly recommend this restaurant for lovers of Asian cuisine. Just last night I picked up 2 orders of the Tom Yum soup to go. Yes, it’s literally that good! 10/10”
“Came here with my kids and Aunt who is visiting us. We absolutely loved the food, atmosphere, and service. We had Kam serve us and she was amazing! She was so kind to my kids, answered all our questions about the food and ingredients. She was thoughtful without us even having to ask. Service that is rare in today’s society. We are very thankful for the quality and service. We will be back.”
“So glad that we discovered Willa this evening. Can't believe that we hadn't found it previously. But discovering it on a Sunday night turned out to be quite a treat. That is their half price wine bottle night as well as the buy one get one chicken schnitzel night. The schnitzel along with it s. Lemon/ dill potato salad were delicious but the focaccia bread starter may have been the star of the show. And then we followed up with some of their homemade, soft serve and absolutely incredible warm, delicious chocolate chip cookie. Our server, Duncan, was terrific. We will be back!!! Just sorry I did not make any pictures”
“last night my husband and i went for our 47th anniversary.it is our go to for special occasions.we went on tomahawk tuesday everything was exceptional ,steak was tender and juicy and the sides were perfect.the server and the floor manager was very attentive it was a great dining experience thank you”
“Our first time at Capital Grille and it was amazing. The steaks were seared and cooked to perfection. Mashed potatoes were the creamiest we've ever had. Service was perfect. They remembered our anniversary and had a rose on the table, hearts sprinkled on the table and a beautiful card. They also gave us free desserts. Just a wonderful time.”
“One of my top choices. Super delicious menu. Fun and foreign atmosphere.”
“Great food. Terrific service. Kayln was on the money with her recommendations for dinner.”
“This place is an absolute hidden gem just off the main strip in Ybor! If you’re even remotely hungry, do yourself a favor and order the Irish spice bag. it’s hands down the best thing on the menu. Packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and seriously addictive. Easily a 10/10.
The vibe is great, the location is perfect if you want to avoid the crowds, and everything just hits right. Can’t recommend this spot enough—I’ll definitely be back!”
“If you want a trip down a cocktail history rabbit hole then this is the place for you. Hotel Bar has done some serious creative work and have crafted a cocktail list that’s based on cocktail recipes from Hotel Bars in the post-prohibition era. What could be cooler than that?! The bar is very well stocked. The staff really know their stuff. And the place is packed, with standing room only most nights. And to be clear, from their website “We’re not a hotel and we’re not inside of a hotel – find us just across the street from the Downtown Hilton.””
“One of the few
Bahama Breeze left, unfortunately.
The one's in Jersey,closed.
I been to all of them.
I order the same meal, every time. Cilantro lime chicken, yellow rice, plantains, pico de gallo, chips, cheese all over, virgin strawberry daiquiri with whip cream and strawberry. Always a hit.
If you're able, eat your meal outside.
The only ocean view one, well worth, it.
This place is a landmark, let's keep it that way.”
“We absolutely love Via Italia. We placed a large order for a family birthday last night, and the entire experience was flawless. From ordering to that first bite. Everything was superb. The pizzas were incredible, and the salads were packed with fresh greens and the perfect balance of flavor. Couldn’t have asked for better.”
“Cozy with delicious plant based food on the outskirts of Ybor. Recommend!”
“Exceptional in everything!! Jacoby was our server. He was attentive, personable, informative regarding all aspects of the menu and had an amazing personality!! The food is always amazing and did not disappoint this time either! The hostess was friendly and personable! Thank you for being a classy, family friendly restaurant in Yibor City! We will return and ask to be seated with Jacoby!!”
“𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐒𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Restaurant Review: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹 – 𝗧𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗮, 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮 -- Downtown Tampa Bay has become a culinary hot spot, providing a transformative array of restaurants that offer elevated food and dining experiences. You don’t have to go to the depths of the sea to find a Pearl that genuinely highlights the flavors, beauty, and aroma of the sea, satisfying your palate with every bite. -- As a seasoned traveler who has explored 68 countries and 36 states, I approach restaurant reviews with four primary criteria: taste, presentation, ambiance, and service. My goal is to provide an impartial perspective, highlighting both the positive and negative aspects of dining at the establishment. -- 𝐀𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 — The restaurant offers a cozy and sophisticated ambiance both indoors and outdoors, creating a vibrant vibe and a memorable experience for all occasions. Well-defined spaces throughout the restaurant and an artistic outdoor design offer opportunities for intimate dinners, social gatherings, and enjoyable spaces to share with friends, family, business professionals, and loved ones. -- 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 —We were greeted by the smiling hostess, who led us to a table by the window. Our server was quick to introduce herself, attentive, and a wealth of information to help us navigate the menu and find the best dining choices for our expectations and preferred food choices. -- 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 – We dined there during lunch, which provides a large variety of snacks, starters, shellfish, sandwiches, and entrees. We started with the Smoked Whitefish Spread and Garlic Shrimp before moving to our entrees, which included Scallops and Atlantic Salmon. -- 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐬 – Unfortunately, this is where there was a slight misstep. When ordering the garlic shrimp, the initial thought is that you would be presented with shrimp with an infusion and obvious flavoring of garlic. To our surprise, the dishes were disguised with an intense red pepper flavor, which created a discerning spice that was welcome. The heart of the dish was lost as all you could truly taste was the spiciness of the red pepper – failing to elevate the flavors of the shrimp and the garlic. What was an additional disappointment was that it was very difficult to enjoy the Whitefish Spread with the lingering taste of the spiciness of the red peppers. After guzzling down some water (and whiskey), I was able to enjoy the true elegance of the Whitefish Spread, which highlighted an amazing balance of smokiness, savory flavors, and creamy/smooth texture. The dish was even more elevated with onions, sweet peppers, capers, and sesame seeds. -- 𝐄𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐬 – Only one word could truly describe the entrees – PERFECT. The chef was able to truly highlight the freshness, favors, and tenderness of the salmon and the scallops while pairing the seafood with the perfect blend of deep, complex flavors with purees that provide smooth textures, sweet flavors, and subtle buttery notes that complement the seafood rather than overpowering the dish. From the visual execution to the perfected flavor combinations, it offers sophistication and memorable taste with every bite! -- Simply put – just slightly short of perfection. While the dining experience had a minor imperfection, the entrees truly allowed us to walk away with an unforgettable experience that has us yearning to come back for more.”
“If you like French cuisine you must try this place !! The food is excellent must try the escargot with spicy compound butter !! The tuna crudo was so delicious!! Then the duck confetti and wagyu bone in rib eye total chef kiss !! Each and every dish we order was cooked in perfection!!
Must mention Laura who took care of our table, she was amazing , we will be back for sure !!”
“Armature Works is one of the most dynamic and visually striking venues we’ve had the pleasure of performing at! The riverfront views, industrial-chic vibes, and modern amenities create such a cool and unforgettable atmosphere. The events team is professional, efficient, and great to collaborate with—making every event run smoothly from soundcheck to final song!”
“My husband and I are frequent diners at Rice and Spice, pretty much regulars, we have been visiting this restaurant for over 2 years and every time we are 100% happy and satisfied with the food, the service, the ambience. They never cease to amaze us with their menu. Tonight we ordered a new dish that is not in the menu yet and it was absolutely delicious. If you like curry, which i do not care for curry - but this was exceptional. The name is Ka-Mu-Panang. I also had a new dessert - made of coconut, bananas. and mango. Because it was a new item it hasn't been named yet - so we called it CoBango, the owners were also naming it different things and still no name when we left. Typical visit as part of the fun going there is feeling like going to family- the owners are very we;coming and family oriented. Love the place!”
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael's Grill cater our wedding, and they truly exceeded every expectation. Located in the heart of Carrollwood next to Tampa Wine Room, where we held our reception, they were the perfect fit for our celebration. Joe and his team did an exceptional job from start to finish. The food was outstanding, beautifully prepared, and served with such care. Our guests could not stop talking about it and kept going back for more. Several people told us they plan to come back and dine there, which says everything. We are so grateful for the incredible service and delicious food that helped make our wedding day so special. Highly recommend for both dining and catering your next event.”
“Excellent food and service. Highly recommend this location.”
“Review for Lima – Tampa, FL What an amazing experience! Lima truly delivers authentic Peruvian cuisine with incredible flavors that transport you straight to Peru. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish bursting with authenticity and rich, traditional flavors. The service was just as fantastic! Pablo, our server, was incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. I absolutely loved the food and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend Lima to anyone looking for an authentic Peruvian dining experience in Tampa. ⭐⭐⭐ Noris Roche”
“Chicken Riggi’s have finally made their way to Tampa! The first bite tasted like I was back in Central NY. Service was superb. They made you feel like family which is the Utica Italian way. Chef Daniel even came out to say Hello to us. Everything was top notch! If you’re from NY go! If you’re not, go! This food has so much flavor and I can’t wait to go back. Thank you Bocelli Tampa for a serene, delicious experience.”
“One of the best pie in the world! I have had pie in Napoli too. The secret is the wood oven, fresh mozzarella and great sauce!”
“This is a great place to visit and enjoy as if you are entering a part of Italy while you are in Ybor City. I did it for New Year and do it again. It is worth the trip.”
“Stopped by this brisket shop and wow — I’m still thinking about it! I ordered the double meat plate with double brisket, and it did not disappoint. Every slice was packed with flavor — some lean cuts that were tender and smoky, and others with just the right amount of fat that melted in your mouth. The bark was perfectly seasoned, and the smoke ring? Chef’s kiss. 💨 The sides deserve their own shoutout — the mac and cheese was creamy, cheesy, and topped with that golden crust, the kind that makes you go back for seconds. And let’s not forget the soft roll and the tangy pickled onions that added the perfect contrast to the rich brisket. I even dipped a piece of brisket into their barbecue sauce, and it took things to the next level. This spot is a must-visit for any BBQ lover. If you’re thinking about going — do it. Highly recommend the double brisket!”
“I didn’t know what all the hype was about until I had their medium spicy garlic butter crab legs. I’ve seen Florida ladies going crazy over this dish and I thought calm down it’s just crab legs. Well this is a whole new level of crab legs seafood boil. I was served this for Mother’s Day. It’s my new favorite spot”
“Puts a different spin on eating. Everything would enjoy the experience. I have enjoyed since they opened in the 80’s.”
“The cookies are so soft and crumbly, and if you get enough awards, you can get A free cookie, and the switch of the flavors every week, which is so nice that we don’t have to eat the same thing”
“I cannot say enough amazing things about this restaurant. The experience was 100/10, food 100000/10. If you are in town, you MUST stop by!!”
“The food wasn't just good it was authentic. I was born and raised in Tampa and I know there are some dishes that you can only get when you're invited into our homes. It isn't something you can experience anywhere else accept in the home of a Tampa native. Their menu includes one of those dishes. Everything we ordered made my wife want to move from Maryland to Tampa. The cerviche with fresh tuna was the surprise standout on the appetizer menu. We simply weren't ready for what they had coming out of that kitchen. The customer service and the food makes this the highlight of our visit back home.”
“they have a wide variety of whisky and bourbon and it's a chill place for family or couples”
“I am a Peruvian who’s always looking for Peruvian restaurants when traveling. This place was great, loved the atmosphere and how well decorated it was. Food was delicious! We tried all the dishes I am about to post and it was delicious. Maracuyá sour was also good. 100 % recommended 👌”
“A couple of nights ago was our first time at Predalina after their interior remodel, and it definitely did not disappoint. Our server, Julio, and the team took excellent care of us and made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I really enjoyed the Lou Lou Cosmo, which was a fun and unexpected favorite, and the espresso martini was absolutely delicious. For dinner, we had the bronzino fillets with sides: roasted mushrooms and spinach ~ everything was perfectly prepared, but the roasted mushrooms deserve a special highlight. They were so, so good. We started with the charred cauliflower with macadamia nuts, and it was a fantastic appetizer. For dessert, the Phyllo Crunch was outstanding, especially with the 3 generous scoops of ice cream from Chill Bros, right next door. Highly recommend the dessert and everything mentioned above! What truly stood out was the attention to service. The manager, Lindsay, stopped by our table at the end of the night to make sure everything was to our satisfaction~ and it absolutely was. We shared feedback about the beautiful new remodel and complimented the great service, which she was genuinely happy to hear. She mentioned that her goal is for Predalina to have the best service in Tampa, and based on our experience, they are well on their way.”
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Acropolis Greek Taverna in Ybor City with the renowned Latin American comedian, Luis Chataing, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The decor is a perfect blend of traditional Greek elements and modern touches, creating a cozy yet lively environment. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Each dish was a delightful journey through Greek cuisine, bursting with authentic flavors and fresh ingredients. We particularly enjoyed the grilled octopus, clams, and lamb, all of which were cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, and every bite was a testament to the chef's skill and passion for Greek cooking. The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They made excellent recommendations and ensured that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. The hospitality at Acropolis Greek Taverna truly made us feel like honored guests. We would definitely go back all the time and highly recommend this restaurant to all Greek food lovers in the Tampa Bay area. Whether you're looking for a place to enjoy a meal with friends or celebrate a special occasion, Acropolis Greek Taverna is the perfect spot. Don't miss out on this gem in Ybor City!”
“A very great hookah option on this side of town. Sean was knowledgeable and super nice. Gave me an amazing blend and can't complain in the slightest about the immaculate vibes at this place. Definitely a nice place for a chill night and chat. Will be coming back!”
“This is such a great place, and I’m not the only one who thinks so, as the folks in Tampa have voted it Best Pub in Tampa in both 2024 and 2025. Independently owned by a wonderful human, George, for 10 years The Blind Goat has it all. Great beer selection, tasty food, a fantastic selection of spirits, delicious cocktails, two dart boards, a mini stage for events, a great back room, a great outdoor/patio space, amd more TVs than you can shake a stick at. Get in here 🍻🍔🎯📺”
“Great service, delicious food. We loved everything we ate and will be back to try more.”
“the food was excellent. very diverse menu something for everybody. food was cooked properly and seasoned well. I had the fried snapper it was flaky n moist with a little crunch on the skin. we happened to be there when the live band was playing. great artist and it was definitely an event not just a meal. we loved it and will be back”
“District South is the perfect place in a convenient South Tampa location for brunch, lunch and dinner. The menu is full of outstanding dishes for every appetite and combined with a full bar it makes for an outstanding visit. The staff are all superb, professional and friendly, to include Daniela P. who served us recently. Daniela's menu recommendations were perfect and on-point to say the least! We cannot wait to visit again and highly recommend this location to everyone!”
“Amazing authentic Italian restaurant! Chef Fabio and the staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We had two pizzas and they were phenomenal. What really blew our socks off was the Tiramsu desert! I highly recommend it and will be coming back again!”
“Great food & svs. A little bit pricy for me. Cost more than Tates; Olive Garden Italian Restaurants.”
“Food is top tier, environment is perfect and overall a good restaurant 10/10”
“With all my rambling, here it is. Great atmosphere, Great staff great price, great drinks ;) Delicious! ..let me start with a thank you to all of the staff. Kind, clean,Professional! If thats not a great start. The Starters will more than sell you! The guacamole, the Delicious Baked wings. Excellent. Moving on to plates. Not a complaint among us. We all had something different. So fresh, tasteful and timely. It was refreshing eating at a place that takes pride in their product. It almost seems like too long and far and few between. It was a great day.”
“Wow!!!! Delicious, unique, elegant and beautiful! We attended the Titanic Themed tea event and it was a treat! The owner/chef is a wizard with flavor.”
“such an amazing dining experience! from the service to the impeccable food everything from start to finish was amazing can not wait until my next trip down if you have not experienced this place you need to it is a must stop when you are in town!”

“I just want to thank the young lady who is there at 0500 today on May 15th, 2026. starting the day with a firecracker energy and a huge smile. Her energy was so contagious that it set the tone for the rest of the day. This is not the only day she has serve me, but every time i go to dunken in the morning at 0500 she is happy, when i tell her my order, she ensure that she understood my order by repeating back my order. Once i pull forward to the first window for payment she is still full of energy. I will like to recomend her for an award. It is so hard to find employees to represent the their organization with a smile, or that is happy and bless that they have a job. So much to be thankful for. On March 1st lost my mom and still grieving, but if i can get donuts everyday just to start my day meeting this young lady (blond hair with glasses) it will make me realized that waking up each day is a blessing when you get to meet people like this young lady. Thank you for serving me with a smile and a contagious energy! and i want to thank HR for hiring her.”

“This was my third time dining here, and the food, without a doubt, remains top-notch and absolutely delicious. Every dish was well prepared, flavorful, and the portion sizes were better than average for this level of dining. We arrived for our 6:00 p.m. reservation and were seated promptly. Service was excellent from start to finish, with our server and the support staff working seamlessly to make sure we always had everything we needed. The ambiance was spot-on, and the background music added nicely to the overall experience. The only drawback occurred right at 8:00 p.m.—two hours into our meal—when we were politely asked to leave because they had others waiting for our table. While I understand the need to manage table turnover and we were preparing to wrap up anyway, it was the first time I’ve experienced this, and it did feel a bit awkward. I suggest that management clearly communicate any time limits, either in the reservation notes or upon arrival, to avoid surprises. That said, this is still an excellent restaurant, and for fine Indian cuisine, we will definitely be back.”
“As a former retailer, I know how hard it is to give excellent service while opening a new store. To say the least, I was pleasantly surprised when I came in last Saturday during a very busy time. The girls who work in the bakery are fantastic. They are knowledgeable, talented, have fun at their job, and the cakes are to die for. They led me to the perfect cake flavor and design for my event. I will be back. Thank you.”
“The food at Cali’s is consistently fresh and delicious. I have sampled the menu; sour dough pizza, creative bowls and recently, the market salad with chickpea bites. All fabulous. The atmosphere here is welcoming and the staff are personable and attentive. Cali’s in New Tampa is terrific!!”

“LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE! If you just want to chill, have a drink or even have dinner, you have to stop here! Their drinks are amazing! The vibe is great, kid friendly, you can sip Pina coladas while the kids splash in the beach area. I have teenagers and they will make the mocktails so they can join you. The food took a bit long to come out but it was worth the wait. I ordered the tacos, and they were vey filling! The valet is def worth it!”
“I only have positive things to say about this establishment! My family and I usually dine in with you guys but we were hosting a family reunion today and we wanted to order some of our favorite foods to go. My gosh everything was just prepared wonderfully and tasted amazing like usual! The take out team was just spot on! We wanted to specifically thank a younger girl with blonde hair. I believe her name was Nichole or Nikki or something like that. keep up the good work, i’ll be back!”
“Went to Sugar Factory for the first time this weekend and honestly had a great experience. The place has a really fun vibe, and you can tell it’s designed to be more than just a restaurant. The food was good, the desserts were huge, and everything came out looking amazing. Our server was friendly and checked on us regularly without being overbearing. Even though it was busy, the staff kept things moving and made us feel welcome. It’s definitely a great spot for birthdays, celebrations, or just a fun night out with friends. I’ll definitely be coming back.”
“Every time I have dinner at Sacred Pepper, I try something new and never have I been disappointed. This time I tried the Pistachio Crusted Fried Brie with cranberry chutney, balsamic reduction and d toasted parmesan crostini and it was amazingly delicious and also a shareable plate. For dinner I had the Oak Grilled Norwegian Salmon with heirloom tomato salad, white wine butter sauce, and house-made orzo pasta with a side of the Caramelized Brussels Sprouts with Applewood bacon and a balsamic glaze. It was all excellent and very flavorful just as everything else has been in my 4 visits here. It's hard to even pick a favorite! Besides the great selection of shareable plates, entrees, sides, and drinks, the decor and ambience are stunning. Then add to that, my server Adam was exceptional, and he was very attentive, polite, respectful, courteous, patient, and he genuinely made me feel so welcomed and valued. He has made so many wonderful recommendations to me over my visits and has even gotten me to try many new things that have all been excellent.”

“Found this neat little place for drinks and a quick bite to eat while waiting to check into our room in the SoHo area. Great vibe and the food was fantastic! Happy Hour menu had a good selection of Tapas and drinks and was very reasonably priced. The bartenders were very personable.”
