Best Restaurants for Groups in New Tampa

Great dinner! The filet was perfection, as were the sides and apps. The service by Selena was truly wonderful! A little loud in the lounge but the musician was great.

This restaurant is pretty amazing. When you walk in and are seated, you feel like you’re in Europe or somewhere. The wait staff is top notch, even better than on a cruise ship. The food is excellent. My favorites are the 1905 salad and the scallop appetizer.

Decided to take my roommate out tonight for a Christmas dinner at Sacred Pepper and we both enjoyed the dinner immensely. I have eaten here many times and never have been disappointed. It's the best place around for the ambiance, the awesome wine/cocktails, delicious food, and for their exceptional service staff. My roommate had the Chicken Burrata dinner and he said the chicken was vey juicy and flavorful. And he loved the warm orzo pasta it came with. I had the seasonal Cod dinner and it is already one of my favorites. And it came with cheesy potatoes and green beans, And their bread is another special treat that you cant help yourself to. My server "Adam" was so friendly, attentive, efficient, and he made sure our Christmas dinner was very special and memorable. My roommate was really impressed and can't wait to try more dinner entrees at Sacred Pepper.

UPDATED as of 12/23/2024: This was one of my wife’s favorite restaurants, she loves the vibe - and the foods pretty good. However, this most recent experience was highly unfavorable and disappointing. To start, we were seated - then waited over 15 minutes for someone to walk up to our table, she took our drink orders… she then went to grab our server. I thought nothing of it, because we are so used to high caliber service here… so we looked past it. An hour goes by, and we have seen our waiter between 4 or 5 times. The other tables around us - their waiters were very present and visited their table every few minutes. We rarely order alcohol, but our drinks were not as great as we remembered. However, the food was incredible (awesome job to the kitchen)! I then was brought a Diet Coke, when I ordered a regular coke - so there were just mishaps all over the place (besides the kitchen). I then sat and waited over 20 minutes for our waiter to come back by so I could pay the bill. I ended up going to the hosts to ask for our waiter, and it still took longer than I thought it should for him to come to our table. I am typically a VERY generous tipper, and for the first time in over 10 years I tipped below 20%… my wife was utterly shocked - because she had never seen me tip that low. Things took a turn when I received a call from the manager because of a thumbs down on the survey as I paid the bill. She apologized profusely and stated would have a coaching with the gentleman serving our table. She truly understood how they fell below par, given our previous experiences there. She stated she would send me a gift card (via mail), and text me so I would have her contact and to let her know the next time my wife and I were coming. Update: My wife and I received the gift card in the mail, and will return very soon. Thank you American Social for making this right, I appreciate it.

great little spot! Had a bit of confusion over my reservation for inside seating but the staff made it right! had a great time with a few friends and the food was wonderful. (The male manager could learn a bit from the wait staff on politeness and tone)
