Recently visited Haiku for a friend's Birthday Dinner and had some items I loved and some that I…read moredid not care for. To start the crab cake was amazing. Didn't need all the micro greens for garnish on top but this could be overlooked because taste and flavor was amazing. The tuna tartare was super tasty as well and I would definitely order this again same comment for micro greens on this dish - didn't need this and found myself moving it off the dishes to actually enjoy the item. The two not so favorite dishes for me were the fried rice topped with fried chicken. While chicken was very tasty the rice was extremely basic. Could have used eggs or other ingredients to elevate this dish. Also the Volcano roll was extremely disappointing. Normally the volcano topping is cooked or (torched) and this topping was cold and very unappetizing. Would not recommend this roll. Overall this place is a hit or miss. Service for our large party wasn't bad and everything came out pretty quickly!

Food is terrible - they even forgot the egg as a part of my ramen and brought me a frozen egg when I mentioned the missing item which was disgusting. Octopus is so tough and chewy. Terribly cooked from frozen. Mango sticky rice is absolutely horrendous. Nothing like what you expect. Temperature is terrible - they don't use A/C so it's incredibly hot and humid in restaurant. Avoid this place at all costs.

Wonderful experience and will definitely return!…read more The food was fresh and incredibly flavorful. I came with my friend who is from Colombia and he said the food was very accurate and reminded him of home. The chef took pride in his soups and pastries and they did not disappoint. The inside was intimate, casual, and very clean. Part bakery vibes but also a sit down restaurant perfect as a brunch spot. For my English-speakers-only reading this, go try something new! The staff spoke great English and the menu was translated with descriptions. More on the staff, they were incredibly friendly and attentive. They gave the impression that they genuinely cared if you had an enjoyable experience. They also did a wonderful job with recommendations if you're not sure what you might like!

Was checking out the chicken joint located next door when my attention was drawn to the sign,…read more"Bakery Box". I was greeted at a window by Mary, who is co-owner. She explained their concept of being a "pop up" bakery; sharing space with other small businesses specializing in sweets. Having lost her employment, this presented Mary the opportunity to pursue her creative baking and pastry talents. I was glad she told me her story, as I am very supportive of those who are following their passion and pursuing their dream. I promised to stop back by after trying out the chicken joint next door. When I returned, Mary had three samples of desserts out to see: flan, strawberry shortcake, and another tempting dessert (which I recall was cake, but my attention was solely on the strawberry shortcake). If any of you reading this review find yourself in South Tampa (South Dale Mabry opposite Home Depot), and have a sweet tooth you want to win bonus points with, I HIGHLY recommend the strawberry shortcake. Light, fresh, delicious, not heavy, and just the right serving size. Kudos to My Sister's Kitchen at Bakery Box for gaining my vote on your strawberry shortcake. I can't wait to try your other desserts. And, I wish you success in your business ventures.

I attended Your Tampa Market Pop-up at the Sheraton Riverwalk on 12/12/2020 and 12/19/2020. They…read morehad a lot of great vendors at this Market. I was impressed by how well-organized the market was. There were so many great vendors! Everyone wore face masks. There was hand sanitizer at the booths that I went to. There were vendors on the outside around the pool and bar area and also on the inside in one of the banquet rooms. What better way to shop then with beautiful views of the Hillsborough River and last night was the boat parade which was an added bonus! During this time, it's important now more than ever to support our local businesses who have struggled the most! So, let's get to my shopping! Angie's Fairy Cakes and Parties had some really good prices on bundt cake for $6, Triple Chocolate Chip for $5 and Hot Cocoa Bombs for $10. I sampled some items and everything was so delicious! I ended up buying the bundt cake mmmmm... :-) Chanel's Boutique had a lot of unique items. They had so many different kinds of masks and they were good quality, too! They even had vintage purses and a red 1950s suitcase for sale. There was a really cute 1920s Art Nouveau, leather purse that was going for $200. I looked it up on the internet and a similar one was $225 + shipping. Jennifer Ann's Boutique had a lot of fun holiday, crossbody bags, Christmas ornaments for $8, and face masks for$6. The display was really cute and the prices were not bad at all. I bought some fresh sea moss from BAXXABILLION. It was made that morning. An 8 oz jar is $10 and a 16oz Jar is $20. There were also BAXXABILLION sweatshirts that look pretty high quality. And the owner, Terrence Baxter, told his personal story on how sea moss and also other natural alternatives helped to heal him after he was shot while driving an UBER! He talked about how natural alternatives changed his life, his health, and the health of his family. He's very knowledgeable on natural products. I bought some wine from Brookstone Wine. The wines are locally crafted in Spring Hill, Fl. I got to taste all of them including their delicious Tropical Sunset, Green Apple Harvest, but it came down to the Cranberry Celebration and the Blackberry Blossom. I ended up getting the Cranberries Celebrations but it was a really tough call! They're $20 a bottle. A little pricey but got to support local. I also bought a couple of hand rolled cigars from Smokey's Lifestyle Cigars. The bourbon infused cigars smelled AMAZING. I bought a pack of the Rum infused ones. I think they were 5 for $20. Thr prices were pretty good. There were so many great vendors including Ilianna's Boutique with such great stuff for 20-somethings, Lavish Lab Cosmetics with the most luscious glosses, and on and on. I wanted to buy from all of them but I just didn't have enough money! I put some of their cards in my review if you wanted to check them out. Happy Holidays Yelp fam :-)

The service was pretty cold, but not overly rude or anything. I saw a lot of people doing takeout, which based on the cold service and lack of ambiance, I would probably do so myself next time.
