Location is great. Right on the river walk in downtown. Food was very good, and had great presentation. Drinks were unique and tasty. Service was attentive and informative on menu items. Overall a great experience. Will visit again for sure.

Walked up to the outside bar for lunch. I ordered the Superfood Bowl and John (bartender) suggested the blackened chicken to go with it. Superb! One of the most gorgeous things I’ve eaten, and the flavors and textures were outstanding! Next time I’m in the area, I’m coming back to try something else. Well done, chefs!

I visited Anchor & Brine last night and enjoyed myself. I will say I was shocked that upon arrival the valet rate was $25 for the first 3 hours then $50 after, even though they advertise valet as “complimentary”. I was told that rate reflected “event pricing” even though I wasn’t there for an event. That interaction quickly changed my mind so once I retrieved my keys from the valet, I self parked right in front of the property for way less and checked in to my reservation. I was seated promptly and eventually moved to one of their fire pits that granted for the most beautiful view of the channel. I ordered the caesar salad with salmon, along with the spicy margarita, and nothing disappointed. I initially ordered a strawberry lemon drop and was told that the bar doesn’t carry any fruit- forward purees or mixing options so I went with the marg. At the very beginning, it was made very clear that I was on a 2- hour limit. It caught me off guard but I understand business so I moved on to enjoy the view, weather, and beautiful tunes from the DJ!

The environment offers class and romance. Perfect for our 28th year wedding anniversary. Our waiter (Castle) surprised us with a complimentary champagne. Excellent dining experience.

This is easily one of my fave spots in Tampa! It’s a hidden gem but the food and service always make me want to come back. It’s a beautiful setting right by the water and the food is amazing. If you are looking for a spot with great views, great service and delicious food this is the spot!

Great food and wonderful outdoor seating.
The smoked grouper dip was delicious and their burger was so tasty! There was live music on Saturday evening.

Great spot with a view of the canal — perfect setting to relax and enjoy.
All the food is fresh and tasty. And of course, the oysters are on fire!
Friendly staff, quick service.
Highly recommend for anyone who values quality seafood and a beautiful view.

I’ll start this with saying how delicious our meal was! From the Grouper Dip to the Seafood Entrees. The flavor combinations were excellent and the ingredients were fresh and hot.
The location and seating was comfortable, semi quite and views were peaceful and a nice addition to our evening.
On the flip side, we felt that the service/staff were lacking. We made reservations a few days ahead that mentioned a special occasion which was a birthday! When we arrived the hostess was not very personable, there wasn’t even a smile. After mentioning the reservation, there was a search for an open table and then we were seated. Our server was friendly to a point but very short in visits to the table and didn’t quite give us a super welcoming experience.
The establishment is Dog Friendly but make sure to bring your own water bowl!
Parking for the restaurant was very difficult, which was expected being in down town. We ended up having to park at Sparkmans Wharf. A good 10 min walk from the restaurant.
In all the food was super tasty, we were just bummed we didn’t get to celebrate our birthday dinner to the fullest. We would definitely visit again in hopes of a better experience!

Had to write a review, because this place is better than the 4.3 rating I see. I probably go to this restaurant more than any others. The food is always good to outstanding, and I’ve never had anything here I would not order again. Unlike many places, they update the menu regularly (seasonally?), and it is a true menu update and not “these are our seasonal specials”. Same thing for their cocktails, which can be disappointing if/when something that is stellar disappears (Cioppino, come back!).
The space is nice, and surprisingly tolerable in the middle of a Florida summer. One of the few places in Tampa that really is waterfront instead of “can see water”, and if you’re looking for something above sports bar or seafood shack, then Jackson’s is the only other option in the area. It is “upscale”, but not necessarily fancy or pretentious, so a place you could dress up (NOT in the summer though) and have a date night, or stop in for a regular weekday dinner/lunch.
No real notes on the service. It is good and never had a bad experience. I’ve seen a lot of the same staff over the years, so the people that work there know the menu and the area, and their recommendations have always been good.
Notable menu items for me are the mussels and the burger, both because most everything else will rotate out, and I haven’t found better than either around downtown.
Last I knew, valet parking at the Marriott was complimentary for an hour or two of going to one of the restaurants.
Wait times can vary considerably depending on season, weather, and if there’s a conference or something at the convention center.

This is definitely not your average hotel bar. It’s perfectly located, with half of the bar inside the large lobby, and the other half is outside against the river walk. It really has a great date night atmosphere where there is also live music on the weekends. The espresso Martini was delicious! They offer many well crafted cocktail options as well as local beers. It’s a great place to be on the water and have a nice breeze as you people watch. Highly recommend this as a local and tourist alike. Parking is a tad tricky if you’re not a hotel guest, but it’s an easy walk along the river to get to.
