Food. Flavors. People. Style.

Inspired by her flavorful travels, Candy DeBartolo set out to bring something different to North Tampa’s food scene: a dining destination where everything that happens around the table is considered sacred—a place where every detail matters. Together with her team of passionate experts, she opened Sacred Pepper to provide the community with new twists on classic favorites in an inviting atmosphere. Locally sourced ingredients and made-from-scratch pastas and sauces highlight a Contemporary American menu with dashes of Mediterranean flair. Cocktails are inspired by cultures from around the world as well as modern, traditional, and pre-prohibition tastes.

    This was our first time in this restaurant and we were looking forward to trying it. Everything was perfect, from the impeccable SERVICE, to the huge menu and wonderful daily specials. They have a Sunday special dinner for $26 that includes four courses and a daily happy hour from 4-6:30pm. The music can be a little loud for some people, but it made for a vibrant ambience. It is definitely a neighborhood gym and we highly recommend it!

    We enjoy Sacred Pepper. We had our wedding reception there and go back for anniversary or special occasions. Meals are great. Service was excellent.

    Every dinner I have at Sacred Pepper is like a new exciting dining experience. Consistently "Excellent" & "Memorable". Their "Awesome" selection of fine wine choices always is the "Perfect" start for what I know will be a relaxing and special dining experience. Last night I had the Crab & Corn Chowder (one of my favorites) and it is loaded with flavorful ingredients and it always warms my soul. For my dinner I had the Tenderloin Steak Bites as an entree w/2 sides. The steak was cooked "Perfect" and it was very tender and delicious. The sides I chose were the bacon cheese grits & the Veggie medley and both were "Wonderful". I can't compliment the impeccable "Service" Staff" enough for always being so friendly, attentive, patient, and welcoming to me...and a special Thank You to "Adam" who has been my server now for over a year and he is a rare gem and goes above & beyond my expectations! Sacred Pepper is the "BEST" restaurant in the Tampa area.

    Even though we had a reservation we got a table at the bar at a high top. It was tight and uncomfortable. The hostess said we can request it. But it’s not guaranteed. I felt like i was on a cruise ship with entrainment and ambiance. The food was good but that’s about it.

    We made a reservation. We were there - our friends were a little late. One of the front desk folks said to me well we have a booth but you need to be out by 7:30 (this was at 6p). Her tone of voice was quite rude. I told her well I don’t Think I like that - I don’t know if we’ll be finished by 7:30. So they made us wait and finally sat us. With ordering and all, food delivery - we didn’t Leave the restaurant until after 8pm and we weren’t dragging our feet. We’ve never had that happen before there - disappointing. I get it they’re busy but they didn’t tell anyone else they hadTo be out at a certain time. 😡
