The atmosphere was very chill, but not like it was trying too hard, which made me comfortable enough to truly enjoy the music. My server was phenomenal.

We came during a Michael Jackson themed night so the music was already amazing. Vibes here were absolutely unmatched, everyone was dancing having a good time. Bit of a wait to get inside but all in all it was totally worth the wait (about 35 minutes) the host at the door was extremely kind and friendly, the server who was attending us at our table was also very kind and attentive. The drinks were definitely the highlight of the night, I got the "What's Your Fantasy" and my Girlfriend got the "Like a Virgin" and we both loved the drinks, we also had some lemon drop shots to accompany our drinks.

The perfect after dinner dessert pairing: espresso martini & chocolate cake…read more The best espresso martini Milagro resposado tequila ever! Located inside The Edition, the far back hotel bar surrounded by lush green plants. Ordered with a slice of the chocolate ganache cake. Comes with fruit garnish on the side. Entire cake is literally creamy truffle ganache but not as soft as mousse. Tastes just like a huge portion of the inside of a gigantic decadent creamy chocolate truffle ball... the best part of any truffle ball! After spending several hours on a roof top pool, dinner at Boulon with a couple of friends, we meandered here. While I was scarfing down this ganache cake, they were playing a few rounds of pool. The service is professional & spectacular. The interior is like a green plant conservatory, spa vibe scents.

Perfect for a date where you want to hear each other speak. We nabbed the center seating for the 8 guests in our party. The concept is clever highlighting punch style concoctions. You are met with a sample welcome cocktail which sets the tone for the menu. We each had 1-2 drinks and had mixed reviews. Traditional cocktails are available as well. Our bartender was knowledgeable and helpful in navigating the flavor profiles of items on the menu.

Definitely one of my favorite spots in Tampa for a fun night out! The food was also SO good. We ordered a bunch of different things to share and honestly everything was delicious. The sushi, Wagyu and other small plates were all amazing and I love that you can try a little bit of everything. If you're looking for a restaurant with incredible food and an amazing atmosphere I would definitely recommend Arts Club. I can't wait to go back!

The DJ was the highlight for me. Somehow he mixed urban with techno and it was a little bit of everything for every personality -- I loved it. The food and drinks were my LEAST favorite thing about the place, but I would surprisingly go back on a date or a cute night out with some my boo to enjoy the intimate vibes. This place is EXPENSIVE! $28 for a French 75 -- so correction, the price was my least favorite thing about this place. So along as you have a good budget, you should be good.

You can tell they're skilled and actually care about your experience, not just making drinks. Oh and they have bar snacks now! It's not included with your drinks like in Europe. You have to order separately and they come in the most adorable tray for $5! The music is always on point, which honestly makes a huge difference in the overall vibe. Also, I love their hours...it's one of those places you can count on when you're not ready for the night to end.

The summer cocktail menu is SO fun! I highly recommend checking out some of the options on it. I tried the drink with the coffee ice cream wash that comes with a donut, and it was super good.

What a DOPE, PIRATE THEMED, speakeasy to go to grab some delicious drinks! Totally blown away!…read more Tucked, downtown Tampa you enter through a secret bookcase door and you enter a very low key pirate bar! Lighting is dim, which is part of the concept. (Auto flash is needed for pics) The joint, is VERY CLEAN! The staff is awesome and very attentive! They understand process. The drinks are SOOO WELL MADE! I had a Zombie as my first drink, and it is very well presented and STRONG! I prefer,my first drink at an establishment to be strong cause then I can lighten it up later. Then I had a Rum Barrel, not as strong, but well presented and delicious! Note: Prices for drinks are worth every dime! They have a small food menu, but everything on the menu looked delicious, but I did not eat there. This speakeasy is attached to a British pub which I went for food after. (Review to come) All-in-all great spot to come and have a drink you are well treated, appreciated and just a fun experience! I will DEFINITELY come back here for a delicious drink and DEFINITELY will try something off the food menu. I'll just make sure next time I won't go there after a big breakfast lol! Five stars alllllll day long!!!

This is his favorite spot. He said that he would never go to Boulon and I could see why the food here is way much better.

I opt it for one of the full priced menu items which was the shrimp hummus, and it was very light, flavorful, and the perfect bite. We also had some of the meatballs which were also delicious and served with perfectly toasted bread. I do like coming later in the evening when it's a little busier with more going on. Highly recommend this place for a date night or girls night out or any of the above.

I just wish the happy hour selection was better and quite small, but the $12 burger and beer deal is great.

We were seated at the corner table so we were able to people watch. Our server, Brianna, was super nice and very attentive. I never had to ask her for a refill on my Coke Zero; she just kept them coming! We started with some shareables for the table. Kung Pao Brussel Sprouts which were done just right. We also ordered a half cheese, half pepperoni pizza to share. I've never had a "Columbus-style" pizza before. If you're wondering, the crust is somewhat thinner than most pizzas, but not a thin-crust pizza. The toppings are spread all throughout the pizza to the edge, and then cut it in squares (Tavern style). It was very tasty, with a slightly sweet note. My hubby and I ordered the Cobb Salad (without bacon) which was delicious. I really liked the onions on it. It was very fresh and they served a generous portion. Hubby ate the whole thing, but I had the rest of mine for dinner. So good! Two of our friends ordered the Truffle Mushroom Smash Burger and they loved them. I tried my buddy's tater tots, which he ordered with his French Dip. They were nice and crispy, but could have used some kind of flavoring, like Parmesan or truffle. Doesn't mean I didn't eat them all! LOL. The restaurant looks small when you enter, but in addition to the front dining area and bar, it has two additional dining areas, as you walk towards the back, and another bar. If you find yourself in the Channelside area, you should definitely try out Small Giant.
