Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in New Tampa

Service was great , Cardinal was great. Ambience very nice and good vibe. The grill cheese was ok, sandwich over toasted/grilled and barely any cheese on it

We went here first time Feb 15th 2025, for our 28th wedding anniversary. We had a very nice corner booth. They provided an anniversary card, then during dessert after the main course they designed an anniversary note on the plate out of chocolate, very nice touch. I had a 6 ounce sirloin, a potato , lobster mac and cheese, my wife had the shrimp dinner entree. It was perfect… all of it.. Thanks for your attention to detail and making this a very special night for us both.. we will definitely return

Great experience at the Black Pearl. We went on Saturday, February 15, 2025 and they still had the 4 course tasting menu from Valentine’s Day. Our waiter Sean was fantastic and thoroughly explained the menu. The sommelier, Tommy, was very knowledgeable. Will go back to the Black Pearl very soon. Food was fantastic, and the ambience was very romantic. 

Everything was fantastic. Portions a little small but worth it. This give the opportunity to taste and try more things. We would love to come back. Our service was great, even on a booked evening. Classy little spot. I would recommend!

The service and food was excellent. We started with the Cauliflower sharable and the flavor was amazing. The cocktails were outstanding and they have a full service bar with real liquor and not the "well" drinks so many tourist focused restaurants have for our visitors. The steak and chicken entrees were similarly very well prepared and savory. The restaurant was packed with large groups celebrating as well as couples having their date night. The background music was contemporary and not too loud, which allowed for conversation, but it also was a good fit for the positive fun energy of the surroundings. We were there to celebrate a birthday and we couldn't have picked a better restaurant.
