We went to Meat Market Tampa on a Saturday night for a girls' night out, and it ended up being such…read morea fun, unexpected experience. There were five of us, and we started with small bites before making our way to the back lounge for champagne. The atmosphere was definitely the highlight. The vibe was lively, and perfect for a night out with friends. The food was okay. For the setting and price point, I expected it to be a little better. That said, I'd still come back for the ambiance. Go for the vibes more than the food, and you'll have a good time.

Meat Market has good food, but honestly, I think it's a little overhyped. While everything was…read morewell-prepared and tasted good, I didn't feel like it fully lived up to the high expectations. The prices are pretty expensive, and the portions were on the smaller side. For what you're paying, I was expecting more in both portion size and overall value. The food was good, but it definitely could be better for the price. Another disappointing part of the experience was that even though I had a reservation, I still had to wait almost an hour to be seated. That was frustrating, especially for a place at this price point. One highlight was the espresso martini tower--the presentation was very impressive and fun, and it was probably my favorite part of the experience. Overall, it's a nice spot for the atmosphere and drinks, but between the wait time, pricing, and portion sizes, I'm not sure it's worth the hype.

I learned of this place ages ago when my dad was still around as he would shop here for certain items that most grocery stores don't carry like tripe, goat and oxtails. Now I recommend it to anyone that buys a dog from us, and they're always so grateful about the money they save and all the selections! They also sell produce and lots of other items on dry shelves. The owner Josh is very kind and has cleaned up the place a lot in the last year. All the staff is so pleasant and cheerful as well, you can tell they like working there. They cut all the chunks of meat and larger organs into small chunks for my pups so I don't have to. One of the employees Axel, even helped me out get bulk pricing by the case to save me more money - but first I'd have to get a deep freezer chest and figure out where the heck to keep it Very cute convenient little shop right off the interstate in Seminole Heights. Stop by and see the variety for yourself!!

Prices are more than reasonable and this place has every type of meat here. Whole fish is also available, which was amazing ...since I can never find what I'm looking for in other places.

After being loyal customers for years, tonight's experience was by far the most disappointing we've…read moreever had at this restaurant. I ordered the Signature Cut Special while my husband ordered from the regular menu. When the bill arrived, I politely pointed out that I had been charged incorrectly. Instead of simply checking the order, our server, Talis, told me that other meat carvers had supposedly seen me eating the regular menu item and implied that I was being dishonest. I was shocked. Being publicly accused of lying over a dinner order is completely unacceptable. I repeatedly explained that I had ordered the Signature Cut Special, yet the argument continued until I firmly stood my ground. Only then did he back off. We brought the situation to management's attention. While Manager Paulo has always been professional, courteous, and customer-focused, our interaction with Manager Michael left much to be desired. Rather than immediately addressing the seriousness of a customer being falsely accused, the situation was handled in a way that felt dismissive and unprofessional. The issue was never about the money. It was about respect. Long-time customers should not be treated as though they are trying to deceive staff over a menu item. What should have been an enjoyable evening turned into an embarrassing and frustrating experience. Sadly, this was one of the worst customer service experiences we've had here, and it has made us seriously reconsider this establishment.

We decided to try something different since we were in Tampa and made reservations for 8:15 PM…read more When we arrived, the entrance was packed and there was no host or hostess in sight. Several couples were waiting. While standing there, we heard a woman tell another patron she did not have a reservation, yet when the manager came out to seat guests, he seated a large group and then that party of three before the rest of us who had reservations. Shortly after, he loudly announced, "Reservations first," which was confusing considering what we all had just witnessed. When we were finally seated, we were initially placed at the worst table in the room by the kitchen and bathroom but were accommodated after requesting a move. We then waited 10-15 minutes before the manager instructed Daniel to take care of us. Daniel ended up being the highlight of the evening--professional, apologetic, and attentive despite circumstances clearly outside of his control. We ordered empanadas, only to find out the flavors we wanted were sold out. Daniel brought cheesesteak, four-cheese, and shredded beef instead. The cheesesteak had decent flavor but was dry. Overall, the empanadas were very doughy and the meat lacked moisture. We then ordered the All Beef Parrillada. When it arrived, my wife checked the temperature and tasted a small piece. Immediately after, a server returned and said the dish wasn't ours and took it back. We watched her walk into the kitchen and then bring the same tray out to another table seated two tables away--who had been seated after us. That was extremely concerning. To make matters worse, we were then informed that mashed potatoes were no longer available and needed to select another side--yet the table that received the dish we had touched was served mashed potatoes. We ended up with extra rice and spinach. The spinach was oily with no noticeable garlic, salt, or seasoning. The rice was plain white rice with peas and carrots and little flavor. The steak itself, however, was well-seasoned and prepared nicely. During our visit, we also noticed another Black couple seated next us who waited at least 30 minutes without being greeted or even served water. They eventually left. Shortly after, the table was seated with white males who were greeted and attended to within 10 minutes. That observation was very difficult to ignore after talking to them. Daniel did not charge us for the empanadas, spinach, or the sangria (which he made promptly so we wouldn't experience another long wait). The sangria was very good. His professionalism and sincere attitude were the only things that salvaged the evening. Overall, the service inconsistencies, food execution, and handling of dishes--especially serving a plate that had already been touched--were disappointing and extremely concerning. We came for a different experience, but unfortunately left questioning whether we would return. 2 stars for steak taste and season and Daniel's effort.

Perfectly seasoned, expertly cooked, and served sizzling hot. The ribeye was rich and tender with just the right char. Their chimichurri adds that bright, herby punch that takes everything up a notch. The empanadas are a must to start -- flaky, flavorful, and hard to share. I also love the beef carpaccio as a starter. The sides are classic and generous, and if you have room, don't skip dessert. Service feels personal and attentive without being overbearing. It's a great spot for a date night, family dinner, or even just a glass of wine and steak at the bar. Tampa has plenty of steakhouses, but Renzo's keeps me coming back for the consistency, quality, and welcoming atmosphere.

Everything we ordered was delicious and beautifully presented. If you're into both savory and sweet, you have to try the Nutella French toast. It was amazing. I also loved the pork belly benedict. We ended up ordering a side of house potatoes, which were really good, though it was a bit odd that they don't come included with the dish.
