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!

This was our second time dining at Ulele and it was just as good if not better than the first. Despite it being Valentine’s Day the food and drinks came out in good time and everything we ordered was exactly as it should have been. The Barbacoa shrimp was delicious and the oysters are some of the freshest and best tasting we’ve had in Florida. Two of us ordered filet mignon medallions as a special and they were cooked perfectly. For dessert we had the bourbon butter cake with vanilla ice cream and it was the perfect end to a delicious meal. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and we will definitely go back again!

As a Tampa native my girlfriend has always loved Charley’s, and it was my first time. Our server was Rich who’s been there many years. From the moment we walked in and before we sat down he greeted us with genuine excitement. The food, drinks and ambiance speak for themselves and are of the highest quality but Rich made our special occasion truly unforgettable. He cares about each of his guests which was obvious as we watched him interact with other tables and he never misses a beat. We’re so glad we got lucky sitting in his section and will absolutely ask for him when we return. Cheers! - Kaylie and Brian

Meat Market is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, you know you're in for a treat. The happy hour is fantastic – a perfect blend of delightful cocktails and an ambiance that's both vibrant and relaxing. **Ambiance:** The weather couldn't be better for sitting in the garden. Whether you're there for a casual hangout or a special occasion, the outdoor seating makes for an exceptional experience. **Drinks:** The cocktails are top-notch, crafted with precision and creativity. The happy hour menu offers a great selection, ensuring there's something for everyone. **Food:** The highlight, however, has to be the food. The tuna tartare nachos are a must-try; they're fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The king salmon roll is another standout, with its perfect balance of taste and texture. Both dishes are highly recommended and exemplify the quality and care put into the menu.

My boyfriend and I were completely amazed with the entire experience. From the host stand to bread service, to cocktails, to appetizer, to wine service, to meal time and finally desert. Everything tasted fantastic. Amy, our server , was delightful and knowledgeable. Her service helpers were tentative and friendly. We were celebrating a birthday and were so pleased to have been given champagne for a toast. Jorge, the GM, checked on us to make sure we were having a wonderful time. We could see he has a way with the crowd. He was shaking hands and greeting everyone warmly. Later when we got home, we spoke at length about how we have not had such a wonderful experience like this in a very long time. A++++ for the A5 Wagu . The scallops and king crab legs were incredible.
