Celebrated a milestone birthday and the restaurant had a birthday card and flowers waiting on the table for the birthday girl. I was really blown away with this sweet gesture, and attention to detail. Everyone at the table loved the Jalapeño Spoon bread. The grits and braised short rib were also a hit.

We had a great time night! Our server, Jeff, was wonderful. Gave his recommendations and we loved them. We were a party of 6. The Pearl saw thagwe were celebrating a friend’s 50th and helped make it extra special with a card and flowers. We had appetizers, entrees and shared dessert. We will be back!

They add a 1.5% service charge so you can contribute to their labor cost. This fee doesn’t go to the server but the back of the house.

Great choice. Desert options were a little sparse but the Brown Sugar Pie was good. I’d visit again the next time I’m in Tampa.

Service was very slow. Did not have silverware until long after our food arrived. Fries were room temp and had no flavor. Drinks took a ridiculous amount of time. Overall food was ok at best.

A very impressive array of great tasting food. There were multiple unique preparations of some of the classic southern food options. As well as the drinks, being absolutely delicious.
