We had a team holiday luncheon and it was excellent. Everyone enjoyed the entrees, especially the salmon and scallops. The appetizer flatbreads and meatballs were good starters. They had an excellent gluten free menu. We had a lovely table in the middle of the restaurant but it was quite noisy due to busyness of the restaurant and we had difficulty hearing each other.
I told our waiter that I cannot have gluten as it will make me very sick. I told him five different ways since it was so important. Well, my food was not gluten free as I was sick after in a full gluten attack. It makes my stomach hurt so bad and I had to miss a day of work, which effects my income. I've decided to not dine out anymore because restraurants just don't care and don't take it serious and give the consideration necessary even when the menu says gluten free. Do not eat here if u can not have gluten, because u will regret it.
Fantastic gluten free options. Gluten free bread was incredible. Lewis Walker was our was our waiter and he was awesome. So glad we came here for dinner. Great meal, great service and so very pretty!!! We will be back!!!!

Nice cozy romantic atmosphere, server had a little bit of an attitude when asking about different whiskeys and meal options, which was off putting but the food was delicious overall and the Bohemian raspberry drink was fantastic. Wish they'd have had more gluten free options but its understandable. Candied bacon is actually more like Canadian bacon so just be aware if that bothers you, it's thick cut more like ham chunks. The dutch was like a philly and very good. Highly recommend a flight. My friends said duck wings were so good.
I had the chance to return to the restaurant after Adam reached out about my last experience, and I’m so glad I came back.
The service was amazing. Adam sent me a lovely email, making sure my next visit would be fantastic, and it really was!
As soon as we arrived, we were seated right away. Our server, James, was the best—so friendly and genuine! He made sure we had everything we needed, offered great recommendations, and even provided separate plates for my gluten-free meal; as we decided to try the Guacamole ( was so yummy) — I really appreciated he was really accommodating, as I’m trying to take care of my health.
The manager, Josh, was super caring, and I loved that another manager came by to check on us, too. I ordered the “al carbon,” and my husband went for a wet burrito. Everything was incredibly fresh, and the portions were huge! I also tried a dragon fruit mojito and Coco mojito,both of which were delicious.
I can’t thank the staff enough for their wonderful service. We’ll definitely be back soon for the happy hour deals and we hope to see James and Josh again! thanks again for making this for us!
If you’re looking for a dining experience that feels like a warm hug from the ocean, look no further than Ocean Prime in Tampa! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted with smiles that could light up the entire Gulf Coast. The service here is not just exceptional; it’s like having your own personal cheerleader for the evening!
Now, let’s dive into the culinary treasures we enjoyed! We kicked things off with the shrimp cocktail, which was a delightful selection of ocean-fresh shrimp that practically danced off the cup. Each succulent bite was a celebration of the sea, perfectly chilled and served with a zesty cocktail sauce that had us saying, "More, please!"
Next up were the cocktails: the spicy dirty martini and the black orchid. The martini had just the right kick to awaken our taste buds, a spicy and smooth little number that kept us on our toes. And oh, the black orchid! This cocktail was as beautiful as it was delicious—a floral masterpiece that made us feel like we were sipping on a sunset. Seriously, if you’re not Instagramming this drink, are you even living?
For the main event, we indulged in the scallop risotto and a perfectly cooked filet. The risotto was creamy and dreamy, with scallops so tender they practically melted in our mouths. Each bite was a heavenly reminder of why we love dining by the sea. And the filet? Cooked to perfection—juicy, flavorful, and seasoned just right. It was like a culinary hug from a medium rare steak!
As we savored every last bite, the service continued to impress. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, always ready with a recommendation or a witty quip that made the evening even more enjoyable. It felt like we were dining with friends rather than just staff. Oh, and they were so accommodating for my gluten allergy and even had fluffy gluten free bread!
In a nutshell, Ocean Prime in Tampa is a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in an exquisite culinary experience!
Walked in on St Patty's Day. Lunch in a booth facing the TVs over the bar. Great service, explained the menu and really know about the food. Gluten free option for the 2 folks in the group that needed it.
This visit was an extravagance compared to our normal outings as it was our anniversary. We made our reservation online and noted from a checklist that was our reason for visiting Charley's. This was not overlooked from the hostess at the front desk all the way to the complimentary sundae at the end of our meal.
Our server, John, was knowledgeable and attentive to our needs; including my wife's gluten sensitivity. We enjoyed a blue crab martini appetizer, two wonderfully tender steaks cooked to steakhouse medium rare perfection and a couple glasses of a Napa Valley Cabernet recommended by John.
As I said, it was an extravagance to spend that much on a single meal for ourselves, but I would highly recommend Charley's for special occasions, business meetings or for anyone whose budget supports this kind of indulgence.
Tiona was so nice, and super helpful in my need to eat gluten free. The manager (blonde lady with glasses) was also super nice and came out to discuss my dietary needs and reassure of my selections. I had just landed in town for work, and I greatly appreciate a restaurant with good options, and even more so with employees who actually show concern and try to help! This was an excellent experience.
