Family-owned and operated for more than 116 years, Columbia has earned acclaim for its old-world charm and award-winning Spanish/Cuban cuisine.

Casual attire is fine, but we don’t allow sleeveless shirts on men in the dining room.

Join us for century-old family recipes like Paella "a la Valenciana," Roast Pork "a la Cubana," and fresh seafood specialties.

Don’t miss Columbia’s Original “1905” Salad®, prepared tableside with our delicious, freshly-made dressing, a 100-year-old family recipe of fresh garlic, oregano, wine vinegar and Spanish extra virgin olive oil.

Be sure to sample a fine Spanish wine like Montecillo or Campillo. Relax in our courtyard or Mediterranean-style dining rooms, filled with hundreds of hand-painted tiles and Spanish-style fountains.

We are a sister to the Columbia in Tampa's Ybor City, founded in 1905. Children's menu available. Open 365-days a year, including all holidays.

    Awesome salad table side. We got the stuffed shrimp which was wonderful and the chicken valenciano as well as some tapas. The croquettes melted in your mouth. Good service but food took a while and the restaurant was packed for a Monday night.

    The food was wonderful, the service was ok. I think our waiter was a little frazzled. He was friendly though.

    This is a busy time of year, and there were many guests to manage, but the staff did an excellent job. Several menu items were not available due to holiday delivery issues, but our food was excellent, as was the service.
