    We went to celebrate a special occasion in our family. We chose to see the flamenco dance show which was excellent. Our waiter was exceptional. He offered suggestions about meal choices and wine choices an was spot on with both. Take time to read the menu with its history and traditions. Such a memorable dining experience for our family.

    The server was knowledgeable of the wines and helped us make an excellent choice. The N’awlins style were just ok and at $5 a piece, I would pass. The scallops were excellent. Will try to recreate at home. Would return just for that dish. Scallops cooked perfectly and portion size was good with 5 or 6 scallops. Parking is a pain but all of downtown is. Park at Garrison lot with Park Mobile. Definitely will return. Barbie full of the young and beautiful. Enjoyed the people watching. lol.

    I can’t believe we’ve lived in Tampa and haven’t been to timpano until last night. What a great restaurant! Food was great, service was great, atmosphere was great and everything is at a price point that won’t kill your wallet.

    Never experienced service so superb. One would expect a nice steakhouse to have good service but this was on another level. Staff was everywhere and constantly checking in. Steaks were amazing. My wife had the crab legs and they were spectacular as well. Loved the raw oysters as an appetizer and the corn and gnocchi sides were great.
