Delta Sky Magazine, The Lodge

This newer nightlife hot spot has a great vibe and loyal following. The bar itself is a large open and inviting space that holds true to the lodge-themed décor. The drink and late-night food menu are delicious, cleverly worded and moderately priced. Sip on the Crazy Candy Cane, with vodka, peppermint schnapps and crème de

A sampling of reviews from Yelp.com Good chef. Everything is great (minus the stir fry’s, which I don’t love). Pastas are amazing, as are the salads.

Creative Loafing, A look at new South Tampa restaurant, The Lodge

By Brian Ries, Published 04.15.2009 Walk into The Lodge and it’s immediately apparent that the place is easily going to break the curse of this location. It was the sputtering 42nd Street Bistro for a couple of years, then an ill-fated outpost of St. Pete’s Chateau

A sampling of reviews from Yelp.com. I had the coconut covered french toast, with the coconut honey cream cheese. It was pretty awesome. They seemed busy but the service was prompt, and I didn’t see any ridiculous line waiting like I would a t breakfast spots in Chicago… Food was plated well, and the portions

The Lodge in Tampa offers stylish vibe, creative menu

By Laura Reiley, Times Food Critic, Published Tuesday, February 3, 2009 TAMPA — The Lodge Restaurant & Bar’s food is funny. Not funny “strange.” Funny “ha ha.” • It’s got a wink and a nudge on every one of its menu’s seven pages, and a couple of knee-slappers. • There’s a Twinkimisu ($5), a Twinkie dressed

Review The Word: Very rarely do you hear something bad about this place from anybody. That’s good, since it sits about a block away from the most famous restaurant and bar in Tampa (Bern’s). This top location and list of food will pack them in around the clock. The Spot: Ciccio’s looks like a chic,

Creative Loafing, Twist of lime

The Lime serves bar food with a difference, but does it have that something extra? By Brian Ries, Published 11.29.2006 While eating at the The Lime on SoHo, dining companion Austin defended a mediocre movie by saying, “It’s easy to overlook the inevitable flaws when something is charming.” Profound, Austin. And especially apt when reviewing restaurants.
