Arts Club

For my birthday, we kicked off the night at the Arts Club. I had the Hearts of Palm Salad (green papaya, toasted peanuts, and thai basil), the Arts Roll (spicy tuna, avocado, hamachi), and the Zero Gravity drink (disco, drazzle, bubbly oasis, Patron el cielo, banana, plantains, clarified lime, champagne and salt). The food was great, and the drink was delicious! The red decor and red lighting coupled with the music was such a great vibe! The music is turned up, but I had no problem hearing anyone speak. I’m looking forward to going back and sitting near the DJ the next time around for a different experience!

Ivanka was simply amazing super attentive and such a fun-tastic bar tender. She's great for conversation and makes you feel heard and make sure you have a great experience. Her drinks are delicious and has a soothing pallette . She made my experience after long day of work worthwhile. Definitely come on Thursdays food is 50 percent off and worth trying. Has a lounge vibe that feels like a speakeasy with a nice view and relaxing jazzy ambiance.

We really enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant—it had a sophisticated, romantic vibe. Of course, we brought our two kids along, but the staff was incredibly accommodating, ensuring there was something for everyone. The crispy chicken (which I regret not taking a photo of) was absolutely delicious, and they were thoughtful enough to serve the sauce on the side for our little ones, making sure the whole family had a great experience. One note—the noodles were truly served at room temperature, just as advertised. A bit warmer would have been preferable, but overall, we had a wonderful dining experience!

I loved every minute of this hidden gem in the Tampa Edition!!!! Note I went at 6:30pm on a Friday and reserved the red room. I enjoyed the Channelside Roll, Salt and Pepper Prawns and the Custom Martinis. The staff were friendly. The drinks were delicious and the food is superb! This is Asian cuisine by the way and it’s worth it! @explorewithritz_

I recently visited this establishment and had a mixed experience. The ambiance was lovely, and the place looked great. However, the service was just average - nothing exceptional, but no major issues either. Unfortunately, the prices were steep compared to the flavor and quality of the food. I expected more bang for my buck, but it didn't quite deliver. However, the desserts were a different story altogether! I was thoroughly impressed with the variety and quality of the sweet treats - they were all delicious and definitely the highlight of my visit. The music was decent, but it could be improved. It didn't particularly enhance or detract from my experience, but I think they could explore better options to create a more enjoyable atmosphere. Overall, it's an okay spot, but I wouldn't rush back due to the high prices and mediocre food quality. That being said, if you're a dessert lover like me, it's definitely worth stopping by for a sweet treat. Perhaps with some adjustments, they could live up to their full potential.

The Arts Club inside The Tampa Edition is a total vibe—elegant, moody, and just the right mix of upscale and relaxed. The atmosphere alone makes it worth checking out, but the food seals the deal. I tried the gyozas and they were so good—perfectly crispy, flavorful, and honestly addictive. The service was on point too, super attentive without being overbearing. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to for both the scene and the bites.

I am not sure why this place does not get a better rating, but maybe people have the wrong expectations. Let's start off with the price of things. I found it to be in line with everything else at The Edition. You are paying for the ambiance of a more private club inside The Edition hotel, so don't complain when you get the bill. There are two different rooms with a beautiful bar that separates the two different rooms. Each of these (3) places have completely separate vibes. The red room is in the back and for my personal taste, is not the place I want to hang too much. The bar seems to be the spot if you are single and looking to mingle. It's the place most people without a date are going to crowd. The black room in the front is where you will find the DJ and couches, think VIP lounges, for enjoying a great date sight or time with friends. Since that is my vibe and I'm not single, nor am I looking this is where I decided to sit. If you ever get a chance to meet Nihat, he will make your night extraordinary! Knowing my love for music and my personal vibe, he sat us at a great table/couch right in front of the DJ. Not only that, but you have to get off your wallet and ask him to bring the martini cart to order a drink from him. One thing to note, I definitely am not a martini guy, nor would you see me holding a martini glass on any regular occasion...but this is not a regular occasion. He taught us the history and simplicity of what a real martini is and should be. Not only that, but learning that the oldest form of marking a martini is "thrown"...not shaken....not stirred! You have to watch him do this table side for you, what a cool experience. Also, he probably is one of the most kind and genuine people to meet in life. Our main guy taking care of us was Alex, and we enjoyed him very much. He guided through the different things on the menu, which we ended up trying a lot. How else will you really know if it is worth it? I can say we loved the Wagyu Rice! It was amazing and the sushi was enjoyable as well, but the show stopper is the Wagyu Rice. I felt we had amazing service, especially remembering this is actually a night club, not a Michelin Star restaurant. The vibe and music were killer! The place was killer and the people watching may have been the best I have ever seen. This is the pace you wanna be at if you prefer an upscale, private experience with the people and vibe to match. For my personal taste I would rate this place 4.7 stars because it was that good.

The food and drinks are amazing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend stopping in if you are in Tampa. Loved the red room!
