The Pearl Tampa

Restaurant · Gilchrist's A W Oak Grove

"The Pearl works for a swanky meal before a show at the nearby Amalie Arena or on a weeknight when you just want dinner to feel a little special. As the nautical decor (and mermaid mural) suggests, seafood is the star—raw or baked oysters served with cajun seasoning, Thai curry mussels floating in a coconut and sake broth, and a two-tiered shellfish tower. The egg-topped hanger steak, marinated in pineapple juice for 40 hours until it’s ultra tender and slightly sweet, is also a standout. Relax with a cocktail and a slice of brown sugar pie on the terrace facing the Water Street District downtown, where you may see hordes of rabid Lightning fans. " - cheryl rodewig
