Restaurants near East Lake Inn

This by far one of my favorite Italian restaurants in the Tampa Bay Area. I’m thankful for their food & service. Amber was our server & she was very attentive, knowledgeable & polite. The food was excellent, as being a vegetarian they were able to accommodate very well. Our only wish was due to us removing meat from our bruschetta board we wished they’d added more cheeses. However, food was delicious. We will be recommending to others & for sure going back. Thank you!

Tables are too close, food was verry good except for the mash potato.

amazing food and beautiful space. Felt a little too expensive? but very worth it.

Rooster & the Till is a hidden gem! From the outside, it’s unassuming, but inside, it’s a beautifully designed space with a classy, intimate atmosphere. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and seamless. Every dish was thoughtfully crafted and packed with incredible flavors. While it’s on the pricier side, the quality absolutely justifies it. A truly impressive dining experience!

Every year we meet friends here & enjoy a Spanish / Cuban meal in one of many rooms of this historic restaurant. There are three large parking lots, a gift shop and always a wait. Today we discovered that the restaurant is expanding and taking over the gift shop. The gift shop will be moving across the street. We always start with the sangria which Victoria prepared table side in a Spanish pitcher. The warm bread & 1905 salad is excellent. We shared 4 small devil crab croquettes, beef saltedo & we finished by sharing a warm white chocolate bread pudding. Portions were huge & prices reasonable. Our lunch was delicious. All four of us devoured our meals. We went next-door into the gift shop with a sell, their beautiful pottery, tiles, wine, cigars, cookbook, and ingredients
