Family-owned and operated for more than 116 years, Columbia has earned acclaim for its old-world charm and award-winning Spanish/Cuban cuisine.

Casual attire is fine, but we don’t allow sleeveless shirts on men in the dining room.

Join us for century-old family recipes like Paella a la Valenciana, Roast Pork a la Cubana and fresh seafood specialties.

Don't miss the Columbia’s Original “1905” Salad®, prepared with our delicious, freshly made dressing, a 100-year-old family recipe of fresh garlic, oregano, wine vinegar and Spanish extra virgin olive oil.

Be sure to sample a fine Spanish wine like Montecillo or Campillo.

Relax outdoors in our café or courtyard, or inside our Tapas Bar or Mediterranean-style dining rooms filled with hand-painted tiles and family heirlooms.

We are a sister to the Columbia in Tampa's Ybor City, founded in 1905. Children's menu available. Open 365 days a year, including all holidays.

    The food and the service were absolutely wonderful. The wait staff was very attentive and very quick to refill water glasses and provide what we requested. We highly recommend the Columbia restaurant always. The town of celebration has a bad habit of closing up the streets in front of the restaurant and the downtown area every Thanksgiving and every Christmas causing major parking problems. If you book the restaurant during these times, you may need to make sure that you get there very early to get a parking space.

    We always stop by Columbia when we are in town. Excellent food and service at a reasonable price. The 1905 salad is a must, and the red sangria is a favorite.

    Columbia is always one of my favorite spots to hit when we are in town. From the service to the food - it’s always top notch! The 1905 salad, bread, red sangria are my faves! Last night we had mahi mahi cayo hueso & it was chef’s kiss! My husband always gets filet mignon. Even our picky 6 year old cleared her plate! The guava turnover is a great dessert to finish your meal!

    Always a welcoming, pleasant, delicious experience… Jason led us through a number of table-side and traditional dishes. Martini’s and table-side salads were excellent as were the empanadas and stuffed piquillo peppers, and seafood pasta, pork and eggplant dishes. Love the atmosphere. Jason and serving team were great and helpful. Never a disappointment; always flavorful.

    We have dined before and have always had a wonderful dinner and service. We were seated immediately, served cocktails and salad but waited 45 minutes until a different waiter asked us if something was wrong. Not sure where our server was but not happy waiting an hour for our entree.
