    We came to the fairgrounds to see the RV Super Show. It was our first time visiting the fairgrounds.There were people lined up in their cars to purchase parking passes at the gate entrances. The parking pass was $8 for the day. No reentry. We were guided into a parking spot on the big field of grass by one of several parking lot attendants. There was hardly any line up to purchase tickets. But there were long line ups to get your ticket scanned to get inside. I also noted there was no security check for such a big show. Once inside the building there was a large table of maps and magazines. The show was for RV's so there were RVs parked side by side throughout the building. Outside there was a giant map detailing where hundreds of RVs were parked. That's in case you forgot to get a map I guess. There was also a trolly you could hop onto if you didn't want to walk. I also noticed a place you could rent wheelchairs. There were food stands spread throughout the show outside. Typical fair foods like deep fried Oreos, corn dogs, hamburgers, fries, ice cream and lemonade. There was even a spot to buy beer. The seminars were held in a air conditioned building. This was also where the bathrooms were located. Very clean I might add. It's a huge fairgrounds so expect a lot of walking.

    A good establishment large enough to hold the University of Tampa's graduation. At first I thought it would not be a good experience, thinking it would be to hot and uncomfortable but on the contrary there really wasn't a bad seat in the house and the climate control was excellent. The staff there was helpful and the open concessions stand was helpful after arriving very early in the morning.

    The fairgrounds hold a lot of permanent bits of history as well as large functional show spaces for events such as the Florida state fair which we go to every single year.

    Was in town visiting family in Tampa and happened across this nice little gem. Great atmosphere…read moreand local vibe. Food was delicious and fresh. Servers were super sweet. Special bonus...I left my purse there and didn't realize that's where i had left it. Sigh... The head chef found it in the lost and found looking for something else and searched until he found someone who knew me. He then shipped it to me. All pieces and parts (and MONEY!) in tact. Nice to know that there are still trustworthy people in this world. Highly recommend this place for the food and the people.

    Stopped in and they were slow…read more Asia the bartender is the best. Great sales person and a great personality. The place has a modern feel with high black ceilings the place is small but inviting. Seating is mostly inside. We order s the Cuban sandwich and the shrimp. For sides we upgraded to the Mac and cheese for one dish and the sweet potato fries. The Cuban sandwich is well balanced, and you can taste absolutely every flavor. The shrimp are nice large shrimp served on a split top roll with bib lettuce very nice. You can either eat eat it handheld or with a knife fork. The sweet potato fries are absolutely incredible. Very nice and thin and crispy. The mac & cheese is delicious. Only comment I have is possibly switched to a rotelle pasta and throw it under the broiler to give it a little bit more crisp. The service is what's really driving me as Asia has been absolutely incredible. I will be back
