“So delicious. A co worker turned me on to this chicken many years ago and I have to get it when I’m in the area. I always get the half or quarter chicken combo with cilantro rice and spicy beans. Amazing! The sauces are so good they should sell both by the jar. I should try something else but the chicken is so good I can’t. Always friendly service too!“

“I stayed at Hotel Alba Tampa in March 2025 and cannot say enough about the amazing hospitality, kindness, and service at this beautiful property. Beatrix (hope I spelled her name correctly) the lovely woman who greeted me at the front desk was lovely, and thoughtful and gave our group white glove attention every single day! I have been meaning to write a fan letter about Beatrix since I left your beautiful hotel. I cannot say enough about this consummate professional who showered our group of hard-working school nurses with support, care, and special amenities. Yes, the elevators were having issues, but hello...they were still recovering from a series of hurricanes. Despite that small inconvenience, the staff had a sense of humor about the mechanical issues and provided excellent service, including a fully staffed elevator with a very fun monkey (stuffed animal) named George. Hotel Alba Tampa is beautiful, cozy, and filled with special touches that feel magical. The staff is attentive, and accommodating and works hard to meet the needs of their guests.“

“tremendo restaurante, las presidentes super frias y con unas jarras heladas. las meseras super amables, serviciales y atentas, buena música, baños super limpios y sobre todo la comida, SUPER DELICIOSA. LO RECOMIENDO AL 100%. 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴“

“Love everything, the empanadas are too divine!! The amount of dough, the flavor of the stew were perfect, they really are like eating them in Venezuela, and the attention was 1000 percent. I recommend all the empanadas, we are visiting from “

“Amazing Food and Amazing Service !! Highly recommend! My second time here and will continue to come back“

“We asked Palaus to cater a luncheon to honor our volunteers, what a great success! Everything was so well prepared, and Tony and his team were super helpful and professional with all of our requests. Rave reviews for the roast pork and the seafood paella!! Will definitely be back next time I host a crowd.“

“Don’t judge this book by its cover! The food is great; I, specifically, recommend the breakfast burritos. Delicious and they open at 7a!! We will definitely be going back to try more of their menu. The building and interior are dated but, I promise, it’s a hidden gem!“

“I had the steak and rice. it was great and very cheap. if you're getting your car serviced at Ford, it's right across the street“

“Great food, fabulous service. Budget friendly.“

“The food is delicious. The staff are amazing! Great atmosphere. Highly recommended!“

“Second time at Haya for dinner. Overall, it's a great date spot and we will be back. Our server was terrific, the noise level in the main dining room was ok, and the food was pretty good although with slightly small portions. Where things have fallen off; menu is more limited and several terrific options like the fish encased in banana leaf, are no longer available. The biggest disappointment was removal of the “make your own” old fashioned. This was a primary reason to return. We asked and understand it's due to the cost and time bartenders had to put into the craft cocktails. I'd recommend bringing back the old fashioned perhaps with curtailed options. Look to increase the menu options by 50%, slightly larger portions, and you'll be back on many people's regular rotation.“

“Delicioso 😋 recomendado 💯“

“I been coming here for last few years. Amazing food great service. You will not be disappointed. 😀“

“I'm guessing it's a different owner because this isn't the name of the restaurant. It's Puntacana and food was good. The ribs were delicious and I regret not getting more. We sat on the deck to eat and watched the cats play.“

“We loved it! Real home made Argentinian food“

“I am Cuban, I have been living here in Tampa for more than 25 years. I have tried Cuban sandwiches in different places and the Cuban sandwich at this place is EXCELLENT. I RECOMMEND IT. Just as the roast pork is delicious, the coffee with milk is also excellent. The prices are consistent. with the food. The treatment is familiar and pleasant, you don't have to wait to be served. You can call to place your order and you just have to pick it up. I RECOMMEND IT, VERY GOOD SERVICE AND GOOD PRICES AND ATTENTION.“

“Great place 100% recommend“

“I love all the food, service , Atmosphere and service of the employees . The only don’t like is race tha price of the meat with guava to $27.99 to $31.99 is too much please think twice about that thanks Mrs. Lima“

“El Manjar has great Salvadorian food. The place is small “a hole in a wall”, service if you eat there is very slow because they actually cook/prepare the food. The pupusas are the very tasty w the cole slaw which is somewhat hot. A place to visit and try but be ready to wait if you choose a weekend.“

“Was passing through Tampa from Sarasota and decided to try the food. Glad I did! Excellent tacos. Wish I was in the area more often to taste other items on the menu.

Parking: It's in the back of a convenience store, so parking can be a challenge“

“Los Gorditos Food Truck serves up an unforgettable culinary experience, offering an exquisite blend of flavors that tantalize the taste buds. The ambiance is vibrant and welcoming, making every visit a delight and a must-try for food enthusiasts.“

“Great customer service, the breakfast platter of Calentao Completo comes with rice & beans, mixed together, scrambled eggs on the side & a good size portion of a boneless pork chop , areapa & cheese and coffee .That meal is enough to keep you full all day.The icing on the cake was the bakery where you can choose from pan de bono, a cheese bread delight, or many of their tasty danishes, and sweet treats. My favorite place to eat when I am in town. A hidden gem for sure.“
