Best Steak Restaurants in New Tampa

A Night to Remember at Ocean Prime Tampa Last night, Danielle and I had an unforgettable experience at Ocean Prime Tampa, and I can confidently say that this is what dining should be. We opted to sit at the bar, which turned out to be the perfect choice. From the moment we arrived, the energy in the room was electric yet sophisticated, filled with both engaging guests and an incredibly attentive staff who made us feel like we were part of something special. We started with the truffle popcorn—simple yet indulgent, the perfect opening bite. What followed was a salad so fresh and vibrant it was out of this world—each bite bursting with flavor and precision. Then came the star of the night—the steak. Perfectly cooked and paired with three incredible sides, it was an experience in itself. The portions were generous enough that we even had leftovers to take home, but every bite made it hard to stop eating. What elevated this experience beyond just great food was the exceptional service. The bartenders and servers weren’t just attentive; they were engaged, charismatic, and passionate about what they do. They brought the Cameron Mitchell experience to life, making sure every guest felt valued and immersed in the Ocean Prime atmosphere. If you haven’t been to an Ocean Prime, you haven’t been to a restaurant that truly cares. From the ambiance to the hospitality to the flawless execution of every dish, it’s an experience worth savoring. We’ll absolutely be back!

A fun very busy place on Valentines day. Staff are quite friendly and make an effort to make sure your meal is perfect. If you have an allergy, or sensitivity they can accomodate you. Chose the steak and shrimp combo, my son had the chicken, shrimp and steak option. He would pick chicken and shrimp the next time, or upgrade for $8 to the filet. My wife enjoyed the scallops and shrimp. Popular place in Tampa several locations are available within a 20 mile radius. A single protein like chicken was very affordable. Lots of younger student couples took home a box for a second meal. Noodles, rice, along with chicken was around $30 each I believe, if you drink just water. A decent cocktail list is available, we tried the red sangria and the kobe breeze. Quite refreshing. Our three person total with the 18% mandatory tip was just over $200. We ate very well and chose more expensive options. We would go again.

We were there on an early reservation valentines day. We had several appetizers, salad and sushi. we ordered as we went and never felt rushed. Our server, McKenzie, was friendly and efficient she had no issue with us ordering multiple times. I watched her work multiple tables and she was very high energy. I also noted that when she was busy that other staff members pitched in and brought our drink and sushi. The food and drinks were very good. I'm glad that there is now a nicer steakhouse in Lutz.

I ordered the 14oz Ribeye med/rare. The chef cooked it to perfection. My husband ordered the Wedge salad and sirloin steak medium/rare. His meal was also above his expectations. We went for an intimate early Valentine’s Day celebration. I gave our whole dinner experience 5 stars. I highly recommend Stonewood Grill.

This was the first time I got to experience Boulon Brasserie and it was wonderful. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. We ordered the blue crab beignets to start, then enjoyed the Chef special lamb plate and the duck confit. Unfortunately, the duck was a little overcooked for my liking but the flavors were delicious.  The lamb was cooked to perfection.  As a new Tampa native, I was happy to see that there are restaurants that remind me of California the culinary scene. It felt a little like home here and I will definitely be back.
