The Wine Exchange Tampa

I'm going to go right into it... let's go ALL 5 of us left stuffed!!! I had the Cajun pasta with blackened shrimp and scallops, and 3 friends had Cajun pasta with blackened chicken. This dish is super good. The caramelized onions gave a great flavor to this dish. On a great scale of 1-10, I'd give it a 2, maybe 3. It wasn't spicy to me, just flavorful. It was the perfect Alfredo. They give you a lot of sauce. It was great for sopping up with bread. I had zero complaints with this dish. The other friend had Fusilli lemon chicken. I had a fork full, and I'm ready to go back so that I can have a plate all to myself! The flavor was light but full of sunshine. I really can't explain it. It was literally the most perfect balance of capers and lemon. Not shown is the cheese platter. Everything was so fresh. Especially the fruits. Omg, they have superb produce and ingredients. Everything was perfectly fresh and sweet. For dessert, there was coconut creme cake, some sort of lemon pound cake, and a chocolate bomb. I tried all 3. The coconut creme cake was very good and wasn't overpowered by coconut flavor. It was perfect and moist. I don't like lemon flavors desserts, but I tried it for y'all (seriously), and although I didn't care for it, everyone else did. I can say that the lemon flavor was light. I was actually able to take a bite and not spit it out! The cake was more fluffier than a pound cake, and the fruit surrounding the bowl was so freaking fresh and gooood. The chocolate bomb was really good. It's a layer of thin chocolate cake on the bottom, then mousse, cover with chocolate ganache (I hope I spelled it right, if not, it's a hard chocolate shell people 😆) of the 3 desserts, this one was my favorite! YALL... I'M SO STUFFED RIGHT NOW!!!! All of the drinks/ wine were great. The restaurant/ restroom was very clean. The ambiance in the restaurant was great. The music was good and was being played faintly in the background. It's the perfect place for date night. The prices are spot on! Last but not least. To top the night off... CHAD... our waiter was great. So friendly and personable. Please ask for him and tip him well bc that's my new friend in my head! Just a nice and genuine person. My only issue was the front door. As soon as I walked in, I was like, "Oh, this isn't wheelchair friendly." But, I think there may be an entrance on the patio, which would be perfect bc a wheelchair could be maneuvered out there better, i feel. The place is a tad narrow. All in all, I'm definitely going back in a few weeks to take my family! Hell, I may go by myself before then. Happy eating!!! 03/25/2023 Went tonight as their last day open is tomorrow. Again, everything was amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, Mark. He is such a beautiful soul. I'm truly saddened that they will be closing. I feel like I found a hidden gem, and now it's being taken away.

Great spot for a business lunch or catching up with friends. The servers give you plenty of space to chat and hangout without rushing you. The pizza 🍕 was delicious and the cheese 🧀 tasted high quality! Excellent place for the price! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The red sangria was pretty good and there is a really nice brunch menu with $8 drinks. Most food items are $15+ and the wine selection is not what I expected as it was just 1 page of pretty limited options. I ordered a Ceasar Salad and it was fresh. For the area and all the competition, I was a little underwhelmed. I sat outside with my dogs and waited 25 minutes for someone to greet me before I asked if someone could serve me. It seemed very disorganized and I was told to check inside instead. There wasn't a sign to do so and I have 2 dogs, so how was I supposed to go inside with animals. Once I was able to order, the girl was nice but my salad came out 5 minutes before my sangria. It just seems like at 1pm on a Sunday, they need better management to provide better customer service. I couldn't imagine coming here on a busy night.

This is my 5th time and it doesn’t disappoint! Amazing food. Our server, Bert, was very informative and gracious. Food was incredible. We ate until we needed to be rolled out. Coming back again for sure!

Nice chill place! Loved the spicy mussels appetizer. I like that i didnt feel pressured to leave. Nice place to hangout with people. Loved the look inside and the outdoor sitting. Love the vibes. They have a.wide selection of alcoholic drinks. Not so much on the food. My mom loved her seared ahi tuna appetizer and i guess you can turn it into a meal by having the option to add rice
