Mise En Place

This was my first time trying out this restaurant. I have been wanting to try rack of lamb for a while. The presentation, texture, and flavor on the molasses pecan crusted rack of lamb was incredible. I was also impressed with the oysters and korean argentina red shrimp crab pancake. The service was superb and ambience comfortable.

We had a FANTASTIC meal and dining experience. My boyfriend and I dined at Mise en place for the first time on a Friday evening. The decor and atmosphere was inviting. I highly recommend the fried green tomato salad to start. The mise burger was absolutely delicious, taste wise and presentation. I was not a fan of the bread offerings to start, but appreciate the offerings! Service was on point, we really enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be back.

Wow! This eloquent restaurant impresses as soon as you walk into the door and it doesn't stop till the last bite of a perfectly crafted dessert. The duck breast just melts in your mouth and the buttermilk Blue Crab appetizer was so unique in presentation as well as texture. The cocktails are well crafted and refreshing. The bourbon list was fantastic. There is free parking in a garage across the street if you can't find a spot on the street. Service was spectacular and attentive to everything we needed. This is by far one of the hidden gems of the downtown Tampa area. You want fancy and worth the cost of an exquisite fine dining experience? This is your place.

This was a lovely dining experience. It has become one of my favorite restaurants in the Tampa Bay area. I got the rack of lamb, which was very good. I would pass on the calamari next time. I tried some of the seafood pasta, and it was good as well. The lemon sauce emulsion for the bread was my favorite thing there! The dessert was very good. The menu prices might be on the higher end, but the quality, ambiance, service, and vibe make it worth trying.

Chef Marty, Maryann and the team hav3 been feeding me Mise en Place for 25 years. Consistently among the best restaurants in Florida. Great food, wine, cocktails and service. Marty was the first local chef to open a gourmet chef:driven market & eatery but it was too early for Tampa. The two have been a positive force for local, small businesses, helping their employees grow their careers into other roles and likely far more positive things to recount here. Highly recommend! Located across the street from University of Tampa.
