Had brunch here with some girlfriends on a Saturday - brunch time in Hyde park, on the weekend,…read moredoes not bode well for parking - just a heads up for those who may be unfamiliar with the Hyde park area. There are a few parking garages, but even those are a pain because people park like idiots. The parking situation isn't On Swann's fault, but it's an annoying factor. We had reservations well in advance, so we didn't have to worry about a wait. It was reasonably busy for a Saturday at brunch time. The decor and overall ambiance was classy but comfortable, which is great imo. Our server was nice and checked on us a good amount of times. The wait time between ordering our food and it coming to the table felt a bit lengthier than I would typically expect, but the food was delicious so it's hard to even complain about that. I got the short rib hash and a croissant and both items were wonderful. The croissant was flaky and buttery, it comes with a honey dip and butter on the side, would def get again. The short rib hash was also a menu item I would order again - the eggs were cooked perfectly, and I'd say I'm a little picky with how runny my eggs are. These were runny, but not TOO runny. The potatoes had a nice crisp to the outside but nice and soft on the inside, the short rib was so tender, so juicy, it was just a very well rounded, great tasting hash. This was my first time visiting On Swann for brunch, I'll be back for sure, but maybe on a weekday instead of the weekend since it seems to get pretty crowded in the Hyde Park Village area!

Connor was my waiter and he was friendly and attentive. Check on my table frequently and knew the menu well as he recommended a few options. I really enjoyed the spring salad and added blackened chicken. For the entree, I tried the chicken sandwich that was delicious and love the fries. I highly recommend On Swann!

Finally got to try Forbici this weekend and it did not disappoint! Saturday night was very busy and…read morethe wait was over an hour but thankfully they had a table for 2 that did not show up so we got right in!! The restaurant is loud and lively due to it being so busy! They have a a great cocktail menu with Italian spritz and rotating specials. For appetizers we did the buffalo chicken pizza which was so delicious!! They have a thin and thick crust pizzas, but this one only came in thick crust. For entrees we did the gnocchi and since they offer pasta half portions, I had the Cacio e Pepe and the rigatoni alla vodka! Both were delicious and that Cacio e Pepe was so creamy. Our server was nice and friendly. The cost for 2 honestly wasn't that bad. I loved all the food and will definitely be back!!

We were originally seated outside, but it was too hot, so we asked to move inside. She was happy to accommodate us. I ordered the Eggs in Purgatory. The eggs weren't runny, which was disappointing, but the dish was still very tasty. The portion was smaller than I expected, so I left a little hungry. Overall, I recommend Forbici. The prices are hard to beat, especially compared to other restaurants in Hyde Park.

Meat Market in Hyde Park Village earns the line out front. Booked ahead on a Thursday and the place…read morewas still packed -- bar, dining room, patio, all full despite the summer heat. Started with a dozen Massachusetts oysters served on a raised plate over a rack -- fresh, with a proper mignonette (not just cocktail sauce) and tiny precision spoons for dosing it. Small detail, made a real difference. The 7oz A5 Wagyu filet is the move if you're willing to spend. It practically dissolves. The waiter talked me into adding roasted Wagyu bone marrow on the side rather than on the steak itself -- no clear winner between eating it with or without, which tells you the steak alone was already doing the work. My friend's 8oz Prime disappeared just as fast at the table. Crispy Brussels sprouts and a smoked-carrot daily special both held their own as sides, though nothing was going to outshine the meat. Dessert: the Flaming Key Lime Pie, torched and tequila-flamed tableside. Genuine theater, and it actually tasted as good as it looked -- key lime custard, torched meringue, coconut gelato, passionfruit and white chocolate running through it. Bonus points for the manager who, when asked about their oddly perfect stay-cool teacups, admitted without hesitation they'd bought them off Amazon. No pretense, just good taste. Only real knock: it's loud. Great for a group, tough for a first date if conversation matters. Everything else here delive

The bar is almost always packed and energetic, which adds to the overall buzz. I also love their sushi. It is consistently fresh, beautifully presented, and honestly makes Meat Market one of the better sushi spots in Tampa. It is a great choice for a stylish night out with good food and plenty of energy.

As someone who absolutely must be careful about everything I eat I cannot say enough about how impressed I was Florish. The place is so clean it literally sparkles and the staff is amazing. Owner Keith was knowledgeable, welcoming, and really took the time to talk "ingredients" with me. We shared the Sausage Pesto and my goodness. Spicy, slightly sweet, crispy, peppery. Mmm. I had a small salad (and it's pretty small) and hubby had a side of quinoa & kale blend with creamy ranch drizzle. All so so good.

The bartender greeted me immediately and introduced himself, and in no time at all I had a delicious limoncello spritz in front of me. Inside the restaurant everything was sleek, clean, and bright, and the jazz piped in from the live music outside added the perfect ambiance. I had made reservations, so we were sat exactly at our time. I highly recommend making reservations because this place filled up quickly and stayed busy the entire time we were there. Our very friendly and knowledgeable server let us order off of the happy hour menu, so my friends and I split a variety of items. First - bread with the 3 dips - you absolutely must get this. Second - fried zucchini balls. While I did like them, I wish they were smaller so the inside was a little more cooked. Third - Creamy Tomato Vodka Pasta - yummy with a bit of kick! This was my favorite food item. Fourth - Queen Stella Margherita pizza. Surprisingly, this was my least favorite item. We got it thin-crust, and while it looked good, it was served completely cold, and the flavor can only be described as cardboard-like. I would definitely try another pizza here, but not this one. My friends also split an order of meatballs, which they loved. While they had wine for dessert, I had a piece of limoncello cake for dessert. It was fantastically lemony and moist, which I loved. Their parking lot is valet only, but fortunately you only have to pay the $6 fee Fri-Sun, so we just had to tip the very friendly valet.
