Top 3 Restaurants in Tampa, FL

#1 Bern’s Steak House

Bern’s Steak House is more than just a restaurant—it’s a cornerstone of Tampa’s fine dining heritage. Since 1956, Bern’s has offered an experience that’s as memorable as it is indulgent. Guests are greeted with rich wood interiors, old-world charm, and a sense of ceremony from the moment they walk in. But the true magic is on the plate.

Every steak is hand-cut to order and aged in-house for peak tenderness and flavor. The sides and accompaniments—from buttery French onion soup to perfectly crisp pommes frites—are crafted with the same care. Wine lovers will be astounded by the massive cellar, one of the largest private wine collections in the world.

Perhaps most unique is the upstairs Dessert Room, where guests relax in private booths constructed from old wine casks. There, you can enjoy a curated selection of confections, dessert wines, and after-dinner cocktails, all with a side of live piano music.

#2 Oxford Exchange

Oxford Exchange is one of Tampa’s most distinctive culinary and cultural experiences. Set within a beautifully restored historic building near downtown, this bright, airy destination feels like a European café fused with a modern social club. Every detail—from the white subway tiles to the black-and-white checkerboard floors and abundant greenery—has been carefully curated to create a sense of understated luxury.

More than just a restaurant, Oxford Exchange houses a tea bar, coffee shop, boutique retail store, and even a bookstore—making it a true lifestyle destination. But the restaurant remains the heart of it all, offering a menu that rotates seasonally and champions fresh, locally sourced ingredients.

Whether you're indulging in a hearty brunch with friends, sipping an iced chai on the patio, or treating yourself to an elegant lunch during the workweek, Oxford Exchange blends comfort and style seamlessly. Signature dishes like the pan roasted salmon, fried chicken sandwich, and fish tacos pair perfectly with craft coffees and signature cocktails.

#3 On Swann

On Swann brings a fresh, modern perspective to New American cuisine. Located in Hyde Park Village, one of Tampa’s most walkable and charming districts, On Swann offers a welcoming yet elevated dining experience that reflects the local flavor and community spirit.

The interior feels chic and relaxed—open kitchen, natural textures, and soft lighting set the tone for a memorable meal. The menu is built around seasonal ingredients, with a strong emphasis on quality, simplicity, and presentation. You’ll find vibrant small plates perfect for sharing, artisanal cheeses, house-made pastas, and rich entrées like seared scallops, braised short ribs, and wood-grilled chicken.

It’s a favorite for weekend brunches, complete with fresh mimosas and inventive twists on breakfast staples, but equally popular for dinner dates, girls’ nights out, and celebrations. The carefully curated wine and cocktail list adds to the experience, offering something for every palate.
