Stacey & Noel were amazing! I recently moved to Tampa, and the customer service at the Meat Market was top tier. From the drinks, the appetizers, the main course meal, and the dessert, every recommendation was spot-on. I must add that I attended the establishment by myself on a Friday evening and I still felt valued and appreciated…thank you, Stacey, Noel, and one of the female assistant managers for creating an atmosphere where all are appreciated regardless of party size. I’ll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this location to all!

Very rarely do you get to experience a place where each item is 💯. Our family of 5 ordered a variety of of dishes. Filet, ribeye, duck, lobster, pork chop, pasta along with many different sides. Such as the truffle fries, bone marrow, and Mac cheese. Every item tasted just right! Meats cooked perfectly and dishes seasoned just right! I look forward to dining here again! 100/100

    Came here for brunch to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Our food was amazing and our server was great! She recommended the stuffed French toast and it was perfection. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing. It was busy but I was able to carry a conversation without feeling like I needed to yell or strain to here. 10/10 reccomend!
