Wow!!!! This place is phenomenal! I wish I could give it a sixth star. The waiter was fabulous,…read morequick, friendly and very informative. We had the pitcher of mojitos, which was refreshing and every bit of what a mojito should be. Bonus: they make it right in front of you. Their salad and bread were fantastic. The bread had a great crunch, perfect! The salad and dressing were very good too, very fresh. The mahi mahi with crab was the best mahi mahi I have ever had. It was citrusy and flavorful, cooked perfectly. The mango upside down cake was really good (could have used a little more ice cream), however the flavor was great! The restaurant is HUGE (does not look it from the outside). Everything was clean and so beautifully decorated. Wow!!! This is DEFINITELY someplace I highly recommend trying at least once. It is pricey but SO worth it, especially for special occasions.

Today (July 3rd), I was so excited to introduce my nephew and two grandsons to a little piece of…read moreour "spanish" heritage at the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City. Sadly, it turned into one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've ever had. The restaurant is beautiful, full of history and stunning décor, and we were seated almost immediately. Unfortunately, that was the only positive part of the visit. Our menus were dropped on the table without a greeting, and for the next 25 minutes not a single server acknowledged us, even though we watched staff walk by repeatedly. We were also seated in full view of the men's restroom, with the constant sound of the door opening and toilets flushing. After being ignored for 25 minutes, I told my husband, "I guess no one is coming," and asked my nephew and grandsons if they wanted to leave. They all said yes, so we walked out disappointed, hungry, and let down. Such a beautiful, historic place deserves service that matches its reputation.

Brought friends here for lunch and decided to try the milanesa today, with fries and yellow rice as…read moresides. Just as I expected, this place never disappoints. I've only had Argentinian-style milanesa before, and I can easily say I liked the Teresita style better. The marinara sauce on the milanesa brings enough acidity to cut through the grease from the fried meat -- the meat is thin and crispy, but not at all dry. The fries and yellow rice make the meal an absolute steal based on the amount of food you get. My friend had the fried fish, which looked delicious -- excited to try it myself next time. Will definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

This place was okay. There was a guy that was kind and did a good job. The girl up front spoke so…read morelow we could not hear or understand her. Definitely needed to speak up or louder. We tried a few things: -Churro: okay but definitely stale, wish it had been fresher. This was a bit disappointing. -Chicken and rice: chicken was not very flavorful. Parts were cooked perfect and some of it was a little dry. Definitely not great... The rice was fantastic, perfectly cooked and seasoned -Salmon and fries: this was really good, flavorful and cooked great. We just wish it was a little bigger for the cost. -Vanilla Flan: very good, just a bit small. -Tres Leche: stole the show! Fabulous! I would come back just for this! The texture was perfect and the flavor was flawless! It was sweet but not too sweet. Great dessert! Definitely check your food before leaving though as they did forget part of the meal. Not a big deal as the guy up front was super apologetic and friendly. That dude was great! They need more just like him. Also, not the cleanest, floors needed swept and mopped. (That definitely would have helped the experience) Overall, it was a good/okay experience, just not great.

This place was packed Saturday around 11:30, but didn't take too long to get our food. This bakery…read morehas been here forever and by the amount of people and the amazing food, they will be there for much longer. We got the breakfast sandwich that was amazing, ham and cheese croquet, cinnamon rolls that was huge and the guava and cheese pastry. Very small inside. But everyone just shuffled to make room for each other.

A while back while visiting Tampa, I had two foodie goals. One of them is to acquire Cuban pastries…read morefrom the 1915 La Segunda Bakery. They have four locations, and we went to the one in the Ybor City Historic District. La Segunda is an institution for Cuban bread and pastries, baking 18K loaves daily and ships nationwide via Goldbelly. Our niece's BF is Cuban, and he said buy anything with guava. In the box (see photo), we bought two each of guava flip (kind of a folded tart or empanada), guava turnover, and guava flip with cream cheese. All of them are delicious! I like the flaky guava turnovers the most even though they didn't survive the transportation across the country in my backpack as well as some of the others. Even though slightly crumbly, still yummy! I also bought butter cookies, sold by the pound. Those are relatively ordinary; I'll skip those in the future. Next time, we are carrying Cuban sandwiches home! I really wish I carried them home. I was having Cuban sandwich withdrawal. This location is older but functional; there isn't seating. Their customers know what they want, and everything moves FAST. If it's your visit (like it was for us), I suggest looking at the menu online to know what to order. The service is friendly, even though I can tell he was a bit exasperated that I didn't just yell out my order and I asked questions. I honestly don't fault him. Busy places have their own pace, and the customers are the ones to keep up. That's perfectly ok.

This is by far my favorite place to do a large pick up order for a family gathering when I come to…read moretown to visit family. On this visit, I ordered soup, salad and entrées for 11 adults and 3 little kids. I called the order in 24 hours in advance and had a very nice person who took my order. She was not the usual person but the next morning the Togo/catering manager called to confirm my order. She was outstanding and just the best! I was instructed where to go upon arrival and they would bring my order to the car. That was so easy and very well done. My order was checked multiple times and everything including condiments and service utensils were included. The food was outstanding in preparation and fresh flavors. We did over order but the leftovers were just as good. Our favorites were the 1905 Salad, the Eggplant entree and of course the Picadillo, Ropa Vieja, and Chicken and Yellow rice were traditionally excellent. This location doesn't have free parking like the Ybor location does, but this location in downtown is great for sightseeing before or after the meal.

So my wife and I came in around noon on June 25th for lunch. Food was very good but a couple issues…read morethat ruined my experience. My wife ordered the empanadas and the half 1905 salad and I ordered the half and half......half Cuban and half 1905 salad. My wife should have added 'bring them together' but she didn't and the server didn't bother to ask so the empanadas came out and everything else came out 15 minutes later. My wife had a cocktail and the bill was $60.20. Issues to fix: 1)I ordered a Coca Cola, $4.00 and in 92 degree weather it melts in 5 minutes. We were there for an hour and not one time did she ask if I'd like a refill. 2)When she made the 1905 table side she literally 'dropped' a handful of salad ON THE FLOOR between my wife's and my seat......she kind of chuckled, gave us our salads and walked away. She literally left the SALAD ON THE FLOOR THE ENTIRE MEAL! During the course of our meal probably 20 employees walked by and never bothered to pick it up. That in itself was the epitome of laziness and complete lack of respect to the customer. Our bill was $60.20 and I tipped $12 which normally I'm a 30% tipper and I could kick myself for giving her 20%. She deserved zero. I know I will never get a response from management but do you think I will ever come back? Nyet.

This restaurant provides a dinning experience with a visual journey to the past. Owner Jesus Puerto welcomes you and your family to their culture and heritage. Located in Seminole Heights, thier food tells a little story of Tampa's history. I would encourage to come visit them and try out thier traditional cuban dishes. And also they sell and produce their own sauces you might want to try. What we had: 1) Spicy Pork Belly - Delicious 2) Ceviche de Oka Pacifico- seafood delicious 3) Lechon Asado- my personal favorite 4) Fricase de Pollo- Good portion of flavorful food

We absolutely love this spot. We've been here about 6 times now and every time has been consistent…read more We always have to order the Virgin Mojito. It's perfectly sweet and has an amazing zesty taste to it. Food portions are very sizable. We love getting the Ropa Vieja, Cuban Sandwich, empanadas, and other delicious staples. And without fail, their strawberry tres leches will be ordered every time we visit!!! It's so rich, soft, and perfect. The atmosphere is also very dope. The Afro-Cuban history just screams when you walk in, wanting to be told. Jesus, the owner, is an amazing storyteller, and we love when he stops by the table to chat. This is definitely a Seminole Heights gem.

Located on the second floor, accessible by the front entrance, the stairs from the lobby, or the elevators on adjacent sides, Sal Rosa comprises a coffee bar and ice cream parlor, a full restaurant, and a bar and lounge. They offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week if you aren't looking to leave the hotel property in downtown Tampa for a day or night. The dirty martinis are ok but I felt they could be dirtier, especially since I asked for extra -- for some reason, bartenders in more than one establishment tend to still be sparingly with the olive brine. But the service was attentive regardless.
