Restaurants near Tampa Museum of Art

Our 4 person group started off at the outside bar while waiting for out table. The cocktails were just ok. Nothing outstanding but they also had a good wine selection. The baked oysters were very dry and hard to remove from the shell. Not juicy at all but very dry. The fried green tomatoes and pork belly were a big hit. The dinner selections were tasty. I had the pompano dish and it was great. The native chili was dry as well. It was meaty but also very dry and lacked moisture or sauce. The desserts were good except the whisky butter cake with blackberries came with 1 blackberry and it was cut in half. I wish it had more berries or some blackberry compote to go with it. Overall nice meal with some improvements to be had on some dishes. I would recommend this place especially with the nighttime ambiance.

This place is fantastic! Each dish is well thought out and perfectly balanced. The staff are very professional, attentive, and more than willing to answer any questions. We love sitting at the bar to watch our meal prepared.

The Columbia is truly a gem, and the food is exquisite! Service is perfect, ambiance is gorgeous, and again, the food was amazing. If you’re in Tampa and love Spanish food, this is a must visit

10/10 experience. Greattttt food! Chicken and waffles were amazing as well as the fish and grits🤤

Cute new place to tryout; food was great however the coffee afterwards was old. When asked the server she stated it was brewed 2 hours earlier. To me when the table orders coffee a new pot should be brewed. As mentioned in other reviews parking is not an easy feat. I had to park several blocks back in a neighborhood.
