One of the best restaurants in Tampa. Our last visit was not as great as past experiences but I understand that it was busier than normal. I will still be going back

Food, once served, was very good. I enjoyed the Lamb shank, my wife had the boullebaise. John, our server, didn't seem real excited about being a server. His appearance and demeanor needs to be addressed. Food is a bit pricey but very good. Gelato also good as were the cappucinos.

Our waiter Larry was very kind and struck up a nice conversation with my son about hockey. We loved the shrimp and pork belly apps. Did the 3 course menu (app, entree and gelato for $50) and were quite pleased! The hazelnut and peanut butter cookies and cream gelato were so good!

Food was terrible. They had one server on the floor so getting a hold of him was difficult, not his fault at all.
