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.

My husband and I stopped into Ulele last week after a celebration of life ceremony in Tampa. We heard great things about this place, and it did not disappoint. Our server Dan, was AWESOME! He was really warm and accommodating. I recently developed Celiac disease, so I have to be very careful with what I eat. Dan went through the menu and explained everything in detail. Our entrees were outstanding.
My husband and I both work for Disney, so we know hospitality, and we recognize great service. Dan went above and beyond. We'll be back soon, and we'll be sure to recommend Ulele to all our friends and co-workers back in Orlando!
This is a good spot for a date or family meal.
Lots of options on the menu, the outside bar has high tops, the main restaurant dining has indoor and waterfront seating.
I love to eat by the water so I’m here for the sunset views, the good drinks and great atmosphere.
When the sun sets the outdoor lights come on and the last time I was here they had a band and were really good.
Being gluten free and dairy free the kitchen had no problem accommodating to my dietary needs.
They have mint for mojitos!
Strawberry mojitos always good when I come.
We drove 1 hour to eat here because the online reviews said great gluten free options. Only to find out there is no seating area, no inside dining and no gluten free options. Do better
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!
This place used to be so amazing their brunch was 5/5 and used to be more allergen friendly. That is no longer so. You have to make your mimosas yourself now. Also, it’s no longer bottomless, it’s by the bottle - which isn’t a huge deal but when you’re constantly having to ask for juice (they only give you enough for one or two mimosas at a time (for the TABLE) it’s just annoying. If I’m making mimosas I’d rather do it at home. At least it won’t be $50 for the bottle.
Service is SLOW. Expect to be here for a while. If you have allergies don’t go, I am allergic to gluten and dairy and used to get hangover hash and the kitchen was willing to work with you…. Not the case anymore. Again. Don’t go. You’ll have 3 things to choose from. Shrimp cocktail, oysters or an eggs and a fruit bowl. I ended up getting shrimp and oysters because if I had to go out and eat another fruit bowl I’d lose it. It didn’t matter it was cross contaminated. Would not recommend going here. It was $100 down the drain. Literally.
Oystercatchers is hands down my favourite waterfront restaurant in Tampa.
I’ve always enjoyed its stunning sunsets and breathtaking views, making it perfect for date nights or special occasions.
The ambiance is relaxed yet elegant, and the service is top notch every time.
As someone who’s gluten free and dairy free, I appreciate how the chef always accommodates my dietary needs without fail,
I’ve never had an allergic reaction.
Whether you’re celebrating or just enjoying a casual meal, this place never disappoints!
Many gluten free options, shrimp and grits was delicious! Chef very accommodating for GF, servers very helpful, friendly. Will come back!! Key Lime Margarita delicious!
Valet is complimentary just tip the attendants.
Every dish is cooked to perfection and the staff is always delightful.
They have a gluten - free menu and are great at accommodating people with allergies.
I’ve never had a bad experience or allergic reaction
here.
Whether it’s for special occasions, work dinners or just a nightcap at the bar, this place never disappoints.
Prices are on the higher side, but the experience is absolutely worth it.
I asked for help from the staff to find something vegan on the menu. Even though it was an uncommon question for this restaurant and the menu wasn't labeled for vegan options (they are labled for gluten-free options), the staff went through the ingredients of possible suggestions and found that thier Chilled Wild Rice is vegan, even with out asking for anythingto be taken out or added. It was absolutely perfect for coming in out of the rain from a hot bike ride or run. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and casual. I was very pleasantly surprised to find something on the menu for me. Thank you for accommodating me!
