Second time eating there. This time it was a little more special for my daughter's birthday. She enjoyed the food and the history.

It was our first time dining here and it was a great experience. The atmosphere was very inviting and chic. Food to follow was just as wonderful, everything was very tasty and portion sizes matched the pricing for not only what the entree was but for the style of restaurant. Jorge was our server and provided very friendly, professional and accommodating service to me and my friends. I think I’ve found a place for my birthday dinner! Definitely will be back with more people to share the experience with. If you’re looking for a well decorated, more elevated spot to dine to impress, this is the spot. For special occasion or everyday dining.

Octopus and bar b que oysters were really unique. Fried Brussels salad was wonderful. Snapper was creative. Olive oil cake great!Really a wonderful evening. When back in Tampa will be at the top of our list!!!

Atmosphere and food choices very unique; the wood fire smell lingers throughout the restaurant giving it a true florida feel. Meals were a bit pricey but nothing is quite like this restaurant. I had the chili; where else can you get a combination of Alligator, wild boar, venison, duck, ground chuck, cranberry beans and chili spices?! Was tender and so filling!
