Mandalay Prime

This restaurant exceeded my expectations! I am usually disappointed with restaurants like this in touristy spots …but this one was incredible! The steak was seasoned perfectly- a rare find (no pun intended) in the Tampa Bay Area, in my humble opinion. The truffle cream and truffle Mac and cheese were so so good and I recommend them both. Vanessa was our server and she was so friendly and sweet, and the chef and manager (maybe the owner?) came to check on us as well. It was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had at a steakhouse and maybe at any restaurant in the last 8 years I’ve lived in the Tampa Bay area. A gem!!

Disappointing. Especially for the price. Our lobster bisque was good, but my main course of scallop & Lobster risotto was not. The scallops were tough, overcooked and fishy tasting. Definitely not fresh seafood. Our waiter was friendly, but did not check on us or ask if the food was ok. I would have sent it back had he inquired.

Our time at blinkers was an amazing experience! The server we had was Chelsea. She was super friendly, attentive, and had such a great personality! The chef brought out a porterhouse on fire ! And cut and served it right at the table! It honestly was the best steak I think I’ve ever had! No exaggeration! The manager Perry made sure everything was perfect! They even came up with a super cute personalized saying for my desert plate -which also was on fire!- as we came to celebrate me opening my lash studio Glam’d by Gabi! Definitely will be back!

One of the best steaks I have ever had in my life!! We got the filet mignon with the whipped garlic potatoes and the carpaccio appetizer. Would 100% go here again in a heartbeat. Michelle was our waitress and she was the kindest soul. Great staff and service!

We had an amazing experience here! It started with a friendly hoost that stated us, our waitress, Michelle, was an excellent ambassador! Our food... O MY was it good. I had the porterhouse, and it was cooked to perfection! The manager Mike delivered and prepared it for me. Everyone in our party in our group loved what we had! Thank you all for this end to an amazing day.

Dylan was the best server I’ve ever had the pleasure of doing business with. He was fun, helpful, and what you want in a server. Get this guy a manager position to train the staff. His suggestions were perfect, the meal was great! 5 stars for sure!!!

This was my first time to Mandalay Prime and it was an all around great experience! My server Michelle contributed to the good time I had. She is knowledgeable about the food and drink menu, personable and you can tell she enjoys what she does. The manager, Michael also stop by the table to check in on how things were going and was very friendly. I will definitely be back!

Michelle was out server & she was absolutely phenomenal. From drink suggestions to food suggestions to hospitality, she was fantastic to meet. I would go back and ask for her in a heartbeat. The manager & GM were both helping out their servers by pre busing, checking in, and even helped clean tables. The food, especially my NY strip & Caesar were fantastic. If you’re a Brussels fan, you won’t be disappointed there either. I highly recommend this place!
