Jack Willie's Tiki Bar Restaurant

We changed our plans at the last minute and ended up at Jack Willie's, and what a fantastic choice it was! My boyfriend said it was the best lunch spot we've visited during our time in Tampa this month. The atmosphere was wonderful, the service was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. Highly recommend!

This is a fantastic spot for drinks and dinner as the sun sets. The fish and chips were wonderfully light and fluffy—probably the best I've ever had, even compared to those in England. I also really enjoyed the atmosphere, along with the attentive and friendly waitstaff.

Pet-friendly! Our furry friend lounged under our table as we enjoyed a meal with a view of the water. My husband ordered the firecracker burger and loved it. I opted for the Caesar salad topped with grilled mahi mahi. While I suspect the fish wasn't actually grilled, it was still tasty. The service was excellent—very friendly and accommodating. They even brought a bowl of water for our dog!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Highly recommend this place if you are in the area. Food was amazing! Staff was friendly and punctual. Shout out to our waitresses, Jessica Lexi. They were amazing and super attentive! Crab fries, Gator Hoagie and Red Fish Sandwich were phenomenal. Thank you to the cook! This is definitely a gem.

Great restaurant off the beaten path, I will definitely go back when visiting! Love the patio area and food:
