The food was amazing as always. Our server (I can't remember his name) was wonderful. He was knowledge about the menu, great personality and never left us waiting for anything. I brought someone who'd never been there before and they will definitely be a repeat customer.

Had another awesome meal at Ocean Prime! Today we had our office Christmas lunch at OP. Our server, Matthew was amazing like usual. He was attentive, kind, professional and made great suggestions for both food and drinks. The food was great and the desserts were large and tasty. I will be back! Thanks for a great experience.

I recently had the pleasure of dining with my favorite colleagues David & Brendan at the Columbia Restaurant in Ybor City, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The historic charm of the restaurant, with its beautiful Spanish tile and vibrant decor, set the perfect tone for the evening. The service was exceptional. Our server was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. We started with the famous "1915 Salad," which was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. We decided to indulge in a variety of Tapa's and it was a feast for the senses – perfectly seasoned with tender seafood, chicken, and empanadas. Every bite was incredible! The dessert, a classic "Flan," was the perfect end to the meal – creamy, sweet, and absolutely divine. The live music added a delightful touch, creating a festive, yet relaxed ambiance. Overall, the Columbia Restaurant exceeded all expectations. The combination of incredible food, attentive service, and the rich history of the place made for a dining experience that I will certainly be returning to. Highly recommend this gem in Ybor City!

Our server Tom was good. A different waitress brought our food she was a short Asian girl. I ordered a pasta dish and asked her for Parmesan cheese. She first ignored me then when I mentioned it again she was annoyed. When she brought it to the table I thanked her and she basically threw it at our table. She clearly did not want to be working. I was happy she wasn’t our server as she needed a change in attitude. Otherwise everything else was good.

Servers name was Jeff and he was very courteous respectful and provided great service all around. Drinks were on the expensive side but they were good. Food was phenomenal.
