Best Lunch Restaurants in New Tampa

Food is excellent and thier prices are awesome. Great time was had by all today..

The Feast of the Seven Fishes was a real delight. Nothing like anything else we've ever even seen. Sword fish and tuna carpaccio! I've never heard of such delights, and the octopus salami was absolutely amazing. All the courses were fantastic. The sauce on the mussels I could drink like soup, and the lobster risotto was so creamy and delicious, topped with a perfectly seared pair of the largest sea scallops I've ever seen. This was the most unique and ambitious take on the Seven Fishes meal I've seen. We had a great recommended wine pairing as well, a white Bordeaux. My sincerest compliments to Chef Chris for putting on such a wonderful event.

I recently had the pleasure of dining with my favorite colleagues David & Brendan at the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The historic charm of the restaurant, with its beautiful Spanish tile and vibrant decor, set the perfect tone for the evening. The service was exceptional. Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. We started with the famous "1915 Salad," which was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We decided to indulge in a variety of Tapa's and it was a feast for the senses – perfectly seasoned with tender seafood, chicken, and empanadas. Every bite was incredible! The dessert, a classic "Flan," was the perfect end to the meal – creamy, sweet, and absolutely divine. The live music added a delightful touch, creating a festive, yet relaxed ambiance. Overall, the Columbia Restaurant exceeded all expectations. The combination of incredible food, attentive service, and the rich history of the place made for a dining experience that I will certainly be returning to. Highly recommend this gem in Ybor City!

Our food was delicious, the waitress was wonderful, and we had an amazing dinner. Shay was super nice and attentive. Everything was fantastic!! Stonewood Grill and Tavern at Tampa Palms is our favorite restaurant.

We had an amazing experience here on Friday Sept 13. We arrived a little later than our reservation but they accommodated us with no problem. Our server was extremely friendly and helpful. We ordered to gyro platters and it came with salad that was so big I almost got full just off of that. Our food also came with yummy Greek fries. I had so much food left over I was able to take it to work the next day. I use to come here all the time when I was younger so I’m glad our experience was just as good as it use to be. We will be back!
