IconicIconic

Columbia Restaurant

Florida's oldest restaurant. Flamenco shows on the weekend, 1905 Salad prepared tableside. Go once, go dressed.

01
Classic

Carmine's Restaurant & Bar

Italian-American in the heart of Ybor. The chicken parm is a serious commitment.

02
Hidden GemLocal Institution

La Teresita

Cuban diner open nearly 24/7. Counter seating, cheap, real. The cafΓ© con leche alone is worth the drive.

03
Lowkey

Teco Lounge

Bar food that punches way above its weight. Go for the wings, stay for the dive bar energy.

04
Must GoLegendary

Bern's Steak House

One of the greatest steakhouses in America. Aged beef, a wine cellar with 500,000+ bottles, and a dessert room upstairs that's its own experience.

05
Upscale

The Epicurean Hotel (Γ‰levage)

Modern American in a foodie hotel. The breakfast is underrated, the happy hour on the edge patio is perfect.
