"Waterfront dining in Tampa doesn’t get much better than at venerable Jackson’s Bistro, a boat-up Harbor Island institution that’s been around since the late ‘90s. A sunny day and date-night stalwart, Jackson’s serves up Asian-inspired options like sushi and lump crab and kimchi fried rice, interspersed with thick steaks and fresh seafood for those who want something simpler. You’ll discover why Jackson’s has become a citywide staple the next time you grab a table right next to Garrison Channel, order up the classic Astral Margarita, and enjoy the soft bay breeze as a parade of boats cruises by." - Matthew Meltzer
