Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Safety Harbor

As usual, we had a great dinner with friends celebrating their 56th Anniversary. Again, we love the Hogfish, Tripletail, Steak tartare and the great drinks and desserts! Tania was a most efficient and attentive server to us, pleasant and friendly. Thank you all again for a great evening!!

Always a delicious meal with outstanding service. It’s our favorite restaurant for special occasions. Small & intimate with a hopping bar inside a house makes it a fun atmosphere that still feels sophisticated at your table. It even has outdoor dining on the front porch. The food prepared with a French flair is hard to replicate in the Tampa area.

My husband and I dined at The Black Pearl tonight for their Christmas special, and it was truly one of the most exceptional culinary experiences we’ve ever had. We’ve previously had a three-Michelin-star experience in Mexico (2022), and this evening rivaled, if not matched, that level of excellence. Every detail was extraordinary—the food was exquisite, with each course perfectly crafted to delight the senses. The palate cleansers were a delightful and refreshing touch, enhancing the flow of the meal beautifully. We opted for the seven-course holiday special with the wine pairing, and it was worth every penny. The wine pairing was simply impeccable, a flawless 10/10, with each selection complementing the dishes perfectly. This was not just a meal; it was an unforgettable culinary journey. We’re already counting down the days until our return for our wedding anniversary at the end of January. I can’t wait to relive this incredible experience.

Everything was excellent! The scallops were delicious! Each dish ordered was a culinary treat. We will return!

The food was amazing. I had the short rib grilled cheese. My friend had the same. It was fantastic! Gerald was our server. He did a phenomenal job. Highly recommend!
