We had our date night at Rooster and the Till tonight and did their Degustation Menu. Ho. Ly. Cow. Everything was so delicious. Hugo was an awesome server and Benny was so nice and friendly. When you come, make sure you get the seating that overlooks the kitchen! Such a unique experience. Cool vibes, the most delicious food and amazing service. Loved their Zero Proof menu too! Can’t wait to go back.
Excellent experience through and through. My husband and I started at the bar and had a wonderful conversation w/ the beverage program manager whose creativity and palate is top notch. Don’t sleep on her Daiquiri! Our friends joined us a bit later and we sat down for a fantastic dinner. The service was so elevated and personal, everything was cooked and plated to perfection. Can’t say enough about the entire staff (special shout out to our server, Bri!) The hype around this place is very real, and often where there’s hype, there can be a certain attitude among staff that feels unwelcoming and haughty… not a whiff of that here. This place was truly snubbed by Michelin — but at least there’s the Bib Gourmand nod.
My husband and I went there for Tampa restaurant week. I ordered the restaurant week menu and my husband ordered ala carte. All the dishes were really good. The food was served tapas style, so you can't be in a hurry--just the way I like to eat dinner. Every dish was served separately, with a complete description of the food and preparation given by the server. Bree was our server and she was very attentive to our needs. You can tell this is a place where people really like their food and are willing to pay a little bit more for the experience. I only had wine, but the two bartenders were busy the entire two hours we were there. Next time I'll check out the cocktails.
Our first time. We sat at the bar and got to order from the complete menu. The drinks are small but very tasty. The bar atmosphere was fun. The bartenders where exceptional. I liked that they let us share our meal seared scallops & gnocchi. They didn’t bring it out together which made an excellent experience enjoying each meal separately. Both dishes had really unique flavors. Would definitely recommend and come back again.
Had a belated 60th birthday celebration last night at what I consider to be the best restaurant in all of Tampa Bay, if not all of Florida, at Rooster & The Till. The food was perfectly prepared, beautifully presented, and the dishes were spaced to make the entire evening flow like fine wine (which was being generously poured as well). Do yourself a favor. Go here. Go here as often as you can. I guarantee you'll savor every single bite.
Delicious meal. We are visiting from San Francisco and we were very happy with our entire meal and experience. Lots of gluten free options in addition to being able to make modifications to a free more items.Really wish the tasting menu has gluten free because it looked amazing.
Wow - just about everything ......Only 2.minor negatives - strip center was an old and beat down place and you walk into a pretty noisy spot - and the food was salty. (but YUM)Appetizer - Miyakazi hand roll mushroom and umi in fresh leaf - explosion of flavors spectacular!!Veggie side -. Smoked beets w/carrot muhamura - also excellentMain - small plate But big portion - cobia cheek - served in a delicious brothScallops in a delicious lamb broth - so unusual and delicious.Gnocchi was with prepared with shredded lamb - very good but not as spectacular as the appetizer and veggie and cobiaSeared foie gras - this was billed as "dessert" by the server .... But not in our opinion. It was on the menu with the small plates and was def savory. Very good - very richOverall an excellent mealWe would make the trip from Sarasota to come again...
First time to Tampa for my husband and I and we are always looking for great, unique restaurants. Menu looked great and even though reviews were mixed we gave it a go. We opted to not go with the tasting menu because the items on the ala carte were more appealing. We had the A5 handroll, Foie Gras, Gnocchi, Scallops, Katsu Sando and the Mochi Donuts. Every dish was perfectly prepared. We sat at the counter and enjoyed watching them prepare the dishes. The service was attentive and helpful and drink/wine list was reasonable. My husband and I have eaten all over the world and this made it into our top 5. Our bill for several course and drinks was 225 before tip and we were stuffed. So to the reviews that criticized the portions and prices I'm confused. We will be back again because as my husband told our server, he thinks of restaurants like dating and he would marry this restaurant. So I guess we will have to get on a plane to come back.
Food is top notch and the staff is friendly
The servers are knowledgeable and friendly. The al a carte and The tasting menu with wine pairings are fabulous! Such a wonderful restaurant!!!
