Calling this establishment a restaurant is pretty misleading. My boyfriend and I went there for dinner and the menu is extremely limited. There's about 10 items of food and then it's all drinks. Given that they look like a restaurant, we thought they would have better options. After looking over the menu with our drinks we decided to leave. Just not enough options, nothing healthy, and the prices seemed on the high side for bar food. The server was extremely nice and understanding and for that reason alone we will be trying them out again when we go out for drinks with friends.
After seeing the reviews about this place we decided to go take a look for ourselves. Being out of town we decide the ask for our server Brooke for some inside tips. She was simply delightful, genuine and a true gem of a person. Provided us with great information that ultimately turn our decision making so much easier. Information that you can't necessarily find on Google. Thank you for the tips Brooke!
Just 'Googled' places around our hotel while in Tampa for the night and wound up scoring! This place is great. The menu is tapas style and light apps. The bar has great whiskey and bourbon options. Craft beer and great wine. Very cool 'steampunk' atmosphere with recycled metal and eclectic art. Patio seating on street, however the three of us really enjoyed the dim lighting and great service at the bar.
We really enjoyed the atmosphere of this place and the attention to detail. We are visiting for a conference and felt lucky we found such a nice happy hour spot. They have drink specials and food specials on their bar fare on weekdays from 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm. They also had live music start at 7:00 pm. The food was fresh and we had very friendly service. The bathrooms were very neat too! They do open the rooftop on the weekend. We didn't get to see that, but if we lived in Tampa we could see it being a place we frequent.
This was one of the best places I've ever been. Great service, very friendly and attentive waiters and waitresses, great music, great food, great drinks Everything was perfect! Highly recommended! :)
Love it here. Original drinks, great menu, cool staffno complaints at all. The roof bar is awesome this time of year too
Not a good experience here. Server seemed very indifferent to our existence at the restaurant and frankly wasn't very friendly. Honestly seems like this is a bar that's just trying to be too fancy for its own good.
Not being a local to Downtown Tampa, we struggled to find a place to park near the restaurant. The atmosphere was exciting and gave us a downtown vibe. However, I have discovered that I am not very fond of the tapas concept or price that goes along with it. I gave 3 stars because the price would imply phenomenal/exotic food and it was comparable to other restaurants I have been to.
Amazing food. Amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend checking this place out but during their happy hour because bar food is 50% off and totally worth it. Specially the nachos because it's a big portion and delicious.
This place is extremely popular, and for good reason--it's better than most restaurants and bars in the downtown area, no question. When it's hopping the acoustics fail and everyone will leave with minor strains on the vocal chords. The fish tacos are good but the tortilla launch pads are mediocre. The burrata salad had a generous portion of deliciously creamy cheese ($13), but the other ingredients didn't work so well. The beer selection is quite good. When I was there they had Two-Hearted Ale from Bell's in Kalamazoo, not the easiest beer to find, in my experience.
Great location, good drinks, good beer, and good food. The food is small plates so totally shareable, if only a little pricey. Rooftop bar is a great place to watch the sun go down.
I don't know what kind of pastry that was that I had for my birthday, but it was all kinds of delicious. Our waiter was beyond wonderful as well as the food and drinks. I definitely recommend the Fly Sangria.
Artistic, fun decor with soothing music or band playing in the background. Roof top lounge with bar and projection screen playing movies or the big game. This is a GREAT place to bring a date.
My husband and I spent the weekend in Tampa on a mini vacation. This place was exactly what we were looking for. They had a good selection of drinks and the atmosphere was nice. There was a DJ and music but you could still sit and have dinner. The food was pretty good. We ordered tapas. After dinner we went up to the roof top lounge and had a few more drinks. Overall, this was a great night. If I were a little younger, this would be a great place to start the night and get some food in your system before you go out But since I'm old now, 👴👴👴 this was just enough action for me. I would give five stars but in my opinion, its a little pricey for tapas. The drinks were a little high too.
I literally could not ask for a better experience. The bartenders were incredibly knowledgeable of the to local area and of their craft. I was amazed watching them work in their element. Caleb and Amanda were exceptionally helpful during my stay. I honestly cannot think of a higher praise than to say this was the perfect bar experience.
