Best Date Night Restaurants in Fish Hawk

My wife and I celebrated our 52nd wedding anniversary at the Y-bor city Columbia Restaurant in Tampa, Florida. We had reservations and arrived a few minutes late and were seated almost immediately. Our Waiter "Keith" anticipated our needs and was very good. When Keith found out that we were there to celebrate our 52nd wedding anniversary he alerted the Manager who came to our table introduced himself and presented us with a congratulations card which was very thoughtful. The food was very very good, the Sangria was excellent and the "White Chocolate Bread Pudding" was to die for. We will be returning to the Columbia every chance we get for the food, service and ambiance. Regards, Greg and Brenda

I had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday here with my closest friends and family. And all I can say is the Nawlins oysters and shrimp and grits were amazing.  we were there during a Tampa Bay Lightning hockey game and the Channelside district was bustling with people and yet we were still able to enjoy our conversations and each other’s company over amazing food. Would definitely recommend this place!

Decorated in holiday garnish, the decor was tasteful and festive. We were seated quickly in a window side table great for people watching, and there is plenty of that. We were pre-game for the arena which is just across the street and Simon attended to our every need, but we were never rushed. The menu is not vast but there are plenty of great options and all were delivered timely. The bar is full and busy. And although we only ordered wine, (their list is loaded with great french wine options!) Plenty of cocktails were delivered to tables all around us and none were returned to the bar. We each had a salad with added protein and both of us had soup, he the bisque, me the French Onion soup. All excellent and a full meal. But the french onion soup was extraordinary. Loaded with cheese topping, loaded with onion, hot but edible and fabulous bouillon. A stand out course that exceeded expectations. Reservations are a must as this restaurant is a hot ticket in a high traffic area. The arena is booked virtually every night. But it is moderately priced, service was great and food and beverages were excellent! Noisy, but part of the ambiance in a busy, bustling place.

Always stellar quality. The steak was perfection. A number of the brunch Salads are perfect portions for a started. The fall and winter months afford the outdoor seating opportunity. Only downside - the high table seats are awkward and do not adjust in and out easily, and the way the seats are made make it feel a little tight. (and we are a slender group). Maybe ask to sit in the lower tables if you have kiddos with you. Service 10/10, food 10/10. They stay consistent which is key.

First time diners and we had a great dinner at Predalina! My party tried raw oysters, zucchini chips, blue crab pasta, 1899 kebab, salmon, lamb orecchiette, risotto, and roasted carrots. The food is delicious and there were zero critiques. Our server was also very attentive. The inside tables are a little tight, but once the restaurant filled in our neighbor’s conversation was less noticeable. My only disappointment is that I noted in the booking we were celebrating a birthday and there was no acknowledgment of this. However, it’s not a deterrent and we can’t wait to dine again.
