I really like the Columbia Café at the Tampa History Museum on the Riverwalk. They have the best salad - it’s called the “1905” and they prepare it right at your table.

This is a Palermo family favorite! We love to start with the calamari and burrata as an appetizer. If you’re craving a certain Italian dish, they’ll make it for you even if it’s not on the menu! We tend to order the same thing every time…angel hair pasta with crab, olive oil and garlic. The gnocchi is also delicious! Be sure to ask for Hugo or Antonio!

I always love boating up to Sparkman Wharf to enjoy the many different food options, Beer Garden and live music. This is the place to be on the weekends. The food vendors are always changing so it’s impossible to get the same thing every time. Currently my favorite is Jeni’s Ice Cream.

The menu has so many great options that it’s sometimes hard to pick just a few! I love coming here for both brunch and dinner. Some of my favorites include the truffle fries, calamari and cauliflower, burrata, caccio y pepe and cannolis. Bill always makes our experience so enjoyable!

This is hands down the best place in Tampa to build your own bowl. They have so many seasonal options and everything is 100% gluten free. They also press their own juices and have homemade sauces you can enjoy on your bowl. It’s great for a quick and easy lunch!

Datz is one of our favorites. We are huge fans of the Biggity Big Burger that comes with the delicious house-made sweet-n-salty chips. The Nom Noms, which are warm, soft pretzel sticks, are also a must.

American Restaurant: 1501 W Swann Ave, Tampa, FL 33606

Hyde Park Village

This has to be my current South Tampa favorite. The cuisine is contemporary American with a seasonal local flair. Set in a stylish yet relaxed atmosphere, it's perfect for any occasion. If you go for lunch, get the Spicy Buttermilk Chicken sandwich--or as the chef calls it, "the Rolls Royce of Chick-fil-A sandwiches".

Tucked back behind MacDill is a little oasis called Swami Juice and they have the best acai bowl in Tampa if you ask me! Or if you're in more of a smoothie mood, try the Wellness Warrior. They always have a wide variety of cold-pressed juices and shots in the fridge.
