    This was the best culinary experience I have had in Tampa in my 9 years here. The food was exceptional. Beautifully crafted, bursting with flavor. This is now my favorite restaurant. Service was outstanding. Our plates were replaced after every course. I’ve tried so many high-end restaurants in Tampa and Atlanta, and this one takes the cake.

    Been coming in for a while now, and really enjoy the restaurant. The cobra collar, gnocchi, and other dishes on the menu are always fantastic. We always have great service here as well (Leah is always so nice.). Everyone at the restaurant is always nice and helpful. Great spot.

    Loved this restaurant!! The food, drinks, service, and ambiance were exactly what we look for. Each dish was intricately plated, and the flavors all complimented and contrasted each other beautifully. I would highly recommend this to anyone who can appreciate a well thought out and crafted experience. 10 out of 10, and we will be back. Also kudos on the accolades, they are well deserved.

    Rooster and The Till is some of the BEST food in Tampa. The menu is loaded with unique dishes that don’t intimidate. Staff describes the ingredients well and the flavors are incredible. Wine glasses can be halved so I could three without over doing it! Thanks to the waitstaff for the offer of that. Bartenders know as much as runners. They all know their craft and share their knowledge if you ask. Get there!

    Food, service and ambience were all excellent. We ordered the tasting menu and added several other dishes. The fish, meat and pasta dishes were all equally delicious. The well selected wine list had great options to accompany every dish. Service was outstanding. Always keeping our glasses filled and genuinely interested in making our experience wonderful. Sitting at the counter made our experience even more special. Have already recommended the restaurant to family and friends. Kudos to the chef and staff.

    Come for the food but not the service. Food is truly exquisite! Very well prepared, full of flavor and interesting pairings. Top notch foodie heaven. Service = they appear to be doing us a favor by deciding if and when to wait on us. Could care less that we waited 10 min for our drinks and asked twice. No apology just a “I’ll let them know” and “I’ll check on it”. Also no smiling allowed here either. Frustrating to be someone who loves to try the foodie experience and well rated restaurants, pay top dollar and have this type of customer service. Alcohol selections were limited. Counter service experience was sub par, book a table. To their credit, they did apply my open table discount which I appreciated.
