Guides

Vegan Tampa: The Fully Plant-Based Kitchens Pure Kitchen, Vegan International, WeVegan, HaleLife, Plant Life and Coco Lov cover full meals, breakfast, allergy-aware baking and dessert. Florish is kept here in red because it is not open right now. Black-Owned Restaurants in Tampa An open pit in East Tampa since 1968, soul food that has moved once and kept its regulars, Tennessee ribs in Ybor, and a Southern kitchen with Guyanese flavours. Seminole Heights Food Guide A Bib Gourmand that started with 37 seats, a sushi shack that really is a shack, three barbecue kitchens on one avenue, and the beer bar that has anchored it for fifteen years. SoHo and Hyde Park Food Guide A steakhouse with half a million bottles under it, an eight-seat Michelin star, an 1891 building full of books and tea, and the strip Tampa means when it says it is going out. Tampa Heights and Armature Works A 1910 streetcar barn with twenty food counters, two Michelin-starred rooms on one street, and a restaurant built on top of a natural spring. Tampa's Michelin Guide Restaurants, Star by Star Four one-star rooms, four Bib Gourmands, a Green Star on a working farm, and twenty Recommended. Plus the one Tampa restaurant that lost its star in 2026. Tampa Restaurants That Have Closed Fifteen places still sitting on live "best of Tampa" lists are gone. Here they are with dates, plus the few that moved rather than closed and where their food ended up. The Cuban Sandwich in Tampa Tampa puts salami in it, and the argument about that is older than most of the restaurants having it. Where to start, and the one bakery almost all of it runs through. Where to Get BBQ in Tampa A 1968 open pit in East Tampa, Texas-style wagyu brisket in West Tampa, three kitchens on one Seminole Heights avenue, and a pit that has been going since 1970. Ybor City Food Guide A restaurant that opened as a saloon in 1903, a macaroni factory turned trattoria, a corner that has been Carmine's since 1948, and the breweries that took the warehouses.
