Le Bordeaux French Courtyard Restaurant
This award-winning restaurant has garnered top rankings from nearly all the local publications and was named Most Romantic Bistro twice by a local magazine. A reflective pool, arches, handsome paintings and posters, white linen and an impressive wine cellar are abetted by French food creations that range from the traditional favorites to contemporary new ideas. The Cottage is also available on site for corporate meetings, weddings and special events. It is designed to resemble a French summer home with wood beamed ceiling, leaded glass windows and a working fireplace.
Il Terrazzo
You'll find this restaurant featuring northern Italian cuisine at the new Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel. Offering excellent service in a sleek, uptown atmosphere, the restaurant offers an array of appetizers, entrees and desserts served within view of the Garrison Channel and Harbor Island. On the appetizer list: fried calamari, Ciabatta cheese bread and roasted clams seasoned with garlic butter and a touch of white wine. For entrees, the restaurant offers such options as Antipasto Misto, Seared Tuna, Fish Soup, and Roasted Whole Fish. Meat dishes include Roasted Chicken with herbs and wine, Filet Mignon, Lamb Chops and Roast Duck coated in a honey, fig and cherry glaze. Desserts are presented on a large triangle plate and include such options as tiramisu, zabaglione cake and fresh berry tarts.
La Croisette
You'll find the food piled so high on the plates here that it's a wonder the server can carry them to your table. Some say the pancakes are even better than homemade and there's the additional advantage of leaving the dishes for someone else to clean. A small restaurant, La Croisette offers a casual, friendly atmosphere, good coffee and a variety of tempting breakfast treats.
