One of my favorite happy hour spots in Tampa. If you didn't know, they also are under the current franchise of Bern's Steak House. Happy hour menu is always changing. Bar Bites : Bern's Aged Burger: Solid burger and come with fries. Sangria : Tasted delicious. Cranberry Lemonade:Really good as well Mussels Escabeche: I really enjoyed all the flavors and grilled garlic ciabatta bread. Not on happy hour the Cold Roasted Chicken Thigh this dish had potential to be good. However ,it was not. Ambiance is always that. I assume it's always plenty of barking depending on the day of the week. All staff was friendly and they were very attentive. read more

Came for out girly happy hour, and Haven had many delicious choices. My reservation system went smoothly coupled with valet parking made arriving and check in efficient. The atmosphere has a speakeasy vibe very lounge /romantic even. Great for a date or happy hour. Unfortunately this spot will be closing on May 20, so only a few days to see what it's been to the Hyde Park neighborhood for many decades. read more

Made sure to enjoy this place before they close for good! After arriving early and grabbing a drink at the bar. We met our bartender Olivia and decided to stay at the bar. She was knowledgeable and helpful with my selections as I'm lactose intolerant. She suggested what cheeses to choose on the cheese board. Not to mention leading me to try the foie gras and my main course the lamb. Very glad we stayed the bar! read more

The Basics: Haven is a sister restaurant of Bern's Steakhouse (and is right down the street) with a nice, more modern menu focused a bit more on sharing items such as cheese and charcuterie. Things I like: We loved everything we ordered and tried when we visited Haven. We started with the Bread and Fat and Shaved Beef Tacos and both of these items were great. I especially loved the Shaved Beef Tacos, they are so flavorful and I highly suggest you try them. The Bern's 8 oz. Filet Mignon was also great. Things I didn't like: Nothing. We had an incredible experience. I highly recommend Haven for a night out in Tampa! We look forward to going back. read more

Knowing this restaurant is in the same group as Bern's Steakhouse we gave it a try and we were glad that we did. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and is upbeat. We started with the barbecue oysters, which were very good and unique. My wife and I split the elk in the pasta which complemented each other very well, especially with the Pinot Noir we chose our daughter chose the 8 ounce fillet, which was cooked perfection, tender, and an ample portion. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. We will certainly be back. read more

We had enjoyed dinner in Ybor City and decided to hook back around closer to our hotel. I remembered there was bar nearby called Raven that offered some nice cocktails, so off we went. Upon entering there was a stylish dining area followed by a l-shaped bar where we took some bar stools for seats at the closest end. If you walk further down the bar, you enter another room that comprised more brick walls and a darker ambiance. It was a nice contrast as we kicked back to enjoyed some drinks. I also liked the fact that they have a cheese room where they store the cheese. That was very cool from our view from the bar. One thing is for sure, they have an impressive selection of bourbons especially barrel picks. I ordered selections by Garrison Brothers and Old Elk and was impressed with both barrel pick pours I ordered. The 2022 barrel pick wby Garrison Brothers was a treat and quite rich on the mouthfeel. Their cocktails are also class. Honeydew's Hot Cousin was a supreme glass of happiness between with Buffalo Trace bourbon, cantaloupe oleo saccharum, boston sour, and strega used. The Farmer's Daughter had more of a citrusy vibe between the pressed lime and tonic in this gin-based cocktail, while the snow pea and mint enhances it to another level. Additionally, I had the opportunity to sample their Uncle Chip cocktail, which they infused with vodka with potato chips (yes, you heard me right), and lo and behold, it tastes like one! The truffle oil and salt used really enhance the sipping experience to other proportions. And they do the classics well. I finished my evening there with an extra dirty gin martini that allowed me to live my best life. It was a glorious way to put a cap on an evening at Haven. It is glorious and good, with waking distance to the Epicurean Hotel where we were staying. read more

The service was five star worthy; however, we sat out on the porch which I usually love outside seating and we were drenched in sweat by the time we left. Please keep in mind that the only reservation we could get was 9pm outside and it's May but the beginning of May. I am a Floridian but more fans would have been appreciated. The ambiance inside was on par for anyone wanting to impress a date. The food was good but pricier than Bern's. read more

Haven is Bern's sister restaurant and it's more casual and much easier to get a restaurant. Same head chef but more unique menu items than the standard ones at Bern's. The Brussel Sprout salad is really good, potatoes were excellent, everything was delicious. Server was wonderful. They have some dessert options that are the same as Bern's but definitely limited. They will call ahead to the dessert room if it's during the week, but they stopped doing it on Saturday nights, so was disappointed to find that out. read more

Had to update my review to give a special shoutout to our sensational server, Jensen! She made our experience out of this world! We celebrated my uncle's birthday on the patio and she made the night absolutely spectacular. She surprised us with a card and champagne toast for the birthday! We enjoyed happy hour drinks and the chef's board which is such an amazing option to share. I indulged in the lamb shank which was fall off the bone good. We asked her to surprise us with the side to split, and we truly enjoyed the pasta dish which was similar to spaetzle. My uncle enjoyed the filet, straight from Bern's. The desserts were phenomenal! The bourbon crème brûlée was so creamy and decadent. We truly enjoyed the evening at Haven, and will certainly be back! read more

My husband surprised me with dinner at Haven for my birthday and it was wonderful! The atmosphere, food, drinks, dessert and staff were all on point! They are located in Soho in the heart of South Tampa in the old Side Bern's building. Make sure to set reservations and with it, you also have the option to set reservations for the dessert room at Bern's if so inclined (but not on Fri or Sat nights). Their parking lot behind the building is small and valet only for $5. You can keep your car there if you choose to go to Bern's later for dessert. Haven does have wonderful desserts as well, but a very small curated list. They brought out our pistachio tart dessert to us with a birthday sparkler which was so much fun! Also birthday champagne! We ordered the chef's charcuterie board which was really good and hit the spot as our appetizer. They have Blanton's gold for all of the bourbon lovers out there - we ordered a 2oz. Glass with a cube ice. By suggestion I ordered a pomm-diggity cocktail which was delicious! We both ordered filet mignon with glazed carrots and grilled cabbage, we gave our compliments to the chef, as the steaks cut like butter! We will definitely be back! read more

Great dinner at Haven. Parking was filled so opted for valet, which was $5. Jensen was a great waitress, and patient with us as 2 of our party was 30minutes late. She didn't rush us, kept our drinks full, and allowed us to conversate while we waited. The vibe is very nice with indoor and outdoor seating options. The salmon was fantastic, great old fashioneds and the side of yams was incredible, tasted like candy. read more

My manager arranged a reservation for me here and I really wasn't expecting much, but decided to go with the flow. Parking is nonexistent, so prepare to valet. Very quaint and beautifully decorated for the holidays. I love that there is outside seating available. My server wasn't very impressive. He took quite long to attend to my small party and didn't offer much with suggestions, but all the other staff were so pleasant and welcoming. The food was 10/10! We tried the seabass, scallop crudo, raw oysters, octopus, Brussels sprouts and the Mac and cheese. Every single item was a show stopper!! read more

I have been wanting to try out this place for a while, but their Halloween dog party is what sealed the deal! My sister and I went to this event which lined up perfectly with their happy hour. We got a charcuterie board and 2 drinks to split. The charcuterie board was a bit overpriced for it being happy hour. I wasn't a big fan of the meats they gave. Also, they only had bread and no crackers. The service was phenomenal though. They were so friendly and accommodating. We loved the plethora of patios to sit on. read more

Girls dinner! We came and sat outside, beautiful area on the patio with lots of greenery. I got the free spirit (a mocktail) which was quite tasty! (I will say this is the same price as a true cocktail so be mindful of that). We shared a chefs charcuterie board that has selected cheeses and meats, all of which we loved and our waitress explained the whole board which was nice. The hamachi was to die for, very fresh and lovely balance of flavors. To finish off we all got a scoop of ice cream and shared the hot fudge to top it off! Lovely evening, incredible service, great ambiance outside, and tasty food/drink! read more

Unfortunately not impressed. Food and service were just. Fine. The server was friendly but also bartending so I felt like she was just in the weeds. She stated multiple times she'd bring us water but our bar drinks and food came out before water and then ended up having to ask someone else for water. The drinks were ok nothing special. Unfortunately my medium rare steak came out like a hockey puck and I hate sending things back but it tasted like I was eating a burger at that point. The remade steak was much better but by then my partners food and our sides were getting cold so not the best food experience overall. The ambiance was nice but according to the server they are tearing the whole place down and rebranding in the summer to a seafood restaurant that is still a sister restaurant to Berns so I wouldn't recommend making it out before they do that honestly. After that comment it seemed like they didn't really care. read more

Overall 5One of my favorite local spots for any occasion! Food 5: haven has a fantastic selection of cheese and meats for charcuterie, as well as small shareable plates and decadent entrées. The only downside of their seasonal, rotating menu is enjoying an incredible meal and not being able to have it again! They have fantastic happy hour deals on food and drinks, perfect for sharing with friends. Some of my favorites include the unique Trofie pasta, fresh Heirloom Tomato salad, and shaved Brussels sprouts salad. Of course their "taste of Bern's" menu always hits the spot, with selections from the sister restaurant in famous steakhouse. Service 5: on multiple visits to Haven, I have always had exceptional service with kind and compassionate staff members. My last two visits were for birthdays of friends, and both times my friends received handwritten birthday cards from all of the staff! Atmosphere 5: haven offers a luxurious atmosphere to enjoy a delicious meal and cocktails. Whether you're eating inside the restaurant or on the beautiful patio, you're in for a treat! read more

This restaurant was so delicious. So my girls and I had our annual Galentines dinner here this year. We had a reservation for 6:30pm. (yes, I'm a sucker for an early dinner) There was a self-parking lot in the front, valet in the back, and garage parking across the street. We chose to valet, and it was only three bucks. When we got there, our table was ready, and we were seated. The restaurant's ambiance was kind of bohemian, which was cute. Our server was woo knowledgable about the menu items and gave excellent recommendations. We got a charcuterie board along with raw oysters as an appetizer. The charcuterie was delicious. The oysters were a little underwhelming but not bad. The dinner was so good. So my friend got the ribeye medium. it came with chimichurri sauce and another one that I don't remember. My other friend got the scallops. DELICIOUS!!! And I got the shrimp and Grits. All of the entrees were amazing. I really enjoyed my time here with my girls. read more

We visited for the first time last night and the service and speed of the food was outstanding! They coursed the food out perfectly and the ambiance was lovely! There is a parking lot next door which is very convenient - Fried Brussel Sprouts Salad ($17): I got this because of all the reviews on this item! It was very delicious and flavorful - Foie Gras Dumplings ($18): the black vinegar flavor was overpowering. It was still good, but I would have probably picked a different appetizer. It was definitely a unique flavor that I've never had elsewhere - Roasted Scallops ($38): scallops were cooked perfectly and I loved the cauliflower and mushroom in the middle. The gochujang is a very prominent flavor so it might not be for everyone's taste. Again, a very unique flavor. I did wish there were 5 scallops instead of 3. - Rabbit Tagliatelle ($37): another unique menu item- the noodles were chewy with good texture and rabbit had good flavor and tasted like chicken! read more

I went for New Year's Eve. I had a reservation for 2 for 8pm. We were sat around 8:25 as they stated our table was still sitting. They generously offered us drinks for the wait which we found very thoughtful. We chose 2 mocktails and they were so tasty! The menu has changed I believe. My husband's a picky eater and we found it hard for him to find something he will eat but he settled on a steak with no sides. I had the chefs choice charcuterie board and the risotto, both were really really nice. My only suggestion would be to increase the side choices to include something more classic with a steak for those who may be picky, but overall it's a wonderful place! Outside lighting and music was great for the meal as well. read more

Happy hour at Haven was so much fun! Their outdoor patio is beautiful and pet friendly. We tried out a bunch of their happy hours deals.

Haven truly lives up to its name. The entire dining experience felt elevated, thoughtful, and delicious from start to finish. We had steaks that were beautifully prepared with incredible flavor, along with oysters and grilled octopus that were fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly executed. The side dishes were outstanding, especially the brussels sprouts, broccolini, mushrooms, salad, and mac and cheese. Everything tasted intentional, not just filler on the table. For dessert, we ordered the Bern's coffee, ice cream, and the sticky toffee pudding. Most of the desserts were wonderful, although the sticky toffee pudding tasted more like a brownie with ice cream rather than the rich, traditional version we were expecting. Still enjoyable, just different from what the name suggests. The service was gracious and professional without being stuffy, and the atmosphere has that comfortable, upscale energy that makes a night out feel like a special experience. Overall, we had a fantastic evening and truly enjoyed our time there. read more

After trying Bern's, I had high expectations for Haven. Unfortunately, it wasn't as good in my opinion. You should get a reservation ahead of time and expect to valet as parking is nil to non existent. They seated us quickly and the server took our initial drink orders and got us a spot at the Harry Waugh dessert room for after dinner. The restaurant is decorated in a modern motif and puts a modern spin on certain dishes like tacos, duck, lamb, and oysters, There are steaks available, which is what I got, but I'd definitely go to Bern's or another steakhouse instead, Many of the dishes are small plate style so you can order several and share them with friends and family at the table. For the cost and experience, I've had better elsewhere so I'm not sure I'd go back. But like everything, to each their own. Take a look at the menu and if it piques your interests/tastes go for it. read more

For the money being spent just go to Berns. Just a lot of food that we don't consume on the menu or that didn't seem appealing. Steaks here are not served with anything whereas Berns it comes with sides. The restaurant is too dark! You literally have to use the light on your phone to even read the menu. We arrived in time for happy hour and we only knew that from the menus that were sat on the table. Our server wasn't engaged with us at all, didn't bother to let us know about happy hour or even that you can get a table at the dessert room at Berns if asked. Good thing my friend let me know this prior to us going. I sat there looking at how engaged the other servers were with their tables and it made me sort of jealous. I even began to ask ours a question and he walked away without me finishing my sentence! The food was ok -- nothing to rave about or set this place apart. The shredded beef taco was my favorite, you could tell that the tortilla was freshly made. For the amount we spent on dinner, I don't get the rave. Sorry, I'll save my money and go elsewhere because I've had better food and definitely better service! read more

Fantastic meal. The hosts graciously accommodated us outside even though our reservation was for inside. Their outdoor patio is lovely. Definitely recommend having a reservation because they were super busy! Huge shoutout to our server, Olivia, for her exceptional service and wonderful attitude. Their happy hour tomino cheese appetizer was bomb with the hidden gem being the oxtail it was served with. Chicken thighs were cooked perfectly, in a delicious green sauce that we devoured. The portion was small, but the roasted yams were got as a side was perfect to pair with. The yams were my favorite sweet potato dish I've had in a while. Berns steak were a huge bonus and also cooked well. We'll definitely be back! read more

Haven - Coal Grilled Chicken Thigh, Roasted Baby Yams - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Haven has a nice comfortable interior and the outdoor patio had a somewhat romantic charming feel to it. We sat inside where the seating was comfy, the ambiance was nice with a dimly lit space. The tables are quite close to each other and they also have booths if you prefer. The service was on point, attentive, friendly and quick moving. Some of the servers are quite experienced while some of the staff appeared a bit less tenured in the field of fine dining but all nice nonetheless. The food was quite nice, we did the prix fixed vday menu. I loved how some of the dishes played with texture and executed that aspect flawlessly and the ingredients were beautiful as well but I had hoped for a few more bold flavors that pack a punch. The presentation was delicate and stunning, the variety fantastic and an overall nice well rounded experience. You will walk away full but not feeling weighted down thanks to the nice clean high quality ingredients. We plan to go back and try the regular menu one of these days to compare experiences. read more

Big fan of Haven! We had a 6:45 reservation but weren't seated until after 7. We weren't in a rush and it was beautiful outside so we weren't too worried about it. There were 3 of us but we were seated at a big table on the patio, we could have fit 5 more if we had that many friends haha! For drinks I started with an espresso martini and ordered the liquid picnic (tito's vodka, fresh strawberry, pressed lemon, truffle honey) after. I prefer my espresso martinis creamy and this one wasn't, but still great! The liquid picnic was so interesting - the truffle flavor was really prominent but I still enjoyed it. My friends both had two extra dirty martinis. The bar was apparently super backed up so it took awhile to get our drinks each time. For food, we split the brussel sprouts (my favorite brussels in Tampa), the chef's board (3 cheese + 3 meat, I only wished that there weren't any spicy options because it limited what I wanted to keep eating), and got a shaved beef taco each. It was the perfect amount of food to not feel super full but be fulfilled for all 3 of us. I also love that if you want, the server can book a dessert room at Berns for after dinner. It's sometimes forgotten that Haven is Bern's sister restaurant, so they offer a Bern's filet and access to the dessert room. Really fun perk especially if you're dying to get a Berns experience without planning months in advance to get a resi! read more

First time and would definitely come back! Our server Rebecca was very knowledgeable about everything on the menu and was able to make some great substitutions for our daily and gluten sensitivities! Their offerings of cheeses is incredible and the entrees did not disappoint. So much so we forgot photos! We had the filet, lamb chops and scallops and all were amazing! Drink service was a little slow at the start. Our charcuterie board arrived first but it did not ruin the experience. Ambiance is great. Classy setting but not too loud or dark! Looking forward to returning! read more
