Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Ybor City

This was our second time dining at Ulele and it was just as good if not better than the first. Despite it being Valentine’s Day the food and drinks came out in good time and everything we ordered was exactly as it should have been. The Barbacoa shrimp was delicious and the oysters are some of the freshest and best tasting we’ve had in Florida. Two of us ordered filet mignon medallions as a special and they were cooked perfectly. For dessert we had the bourbon butter cake with vanilla ice cream and it was the perfect end to a delicious meal. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and we will definitely go back again!

Wonderful service and delicious food! The hot chicken starter was the highlight of the night for us and the service helped to make our evening lovely. We especially appreciated that the restaurant wasn’t too loud as most are in Tampa, which allowed us to have conversation without feeling like we were having to yell. Definitely will be back!

Rooster & the Till is a hidden gem! From the outside, it’s unassuming, but inside, it’s a beautifully designed space with a classy, intimate atmosphere. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and seamless. Every dish was thoughtfully crafted and packed with incredible flavors. While it’s on the pricier side, the quality absolutely justifies it. A truly impressive dining experience!

This was our 2nd time here and just like the 1st time we were absolutely thrilled with everything! The food was amazing, the service by Nick was stellar and the atmosphere just exactly what we needed. Will definitely be back!

A must atmosphere. Enjoyed everything about the place. Oxtails are a must to try. I will be back.
