Reviews of Haven
Kim
Our server, David, was a delight! He was both pleasant and extensively knowledgeable about all the items on the menu. It was definitely a unique dining experience, followed by dessert at its sister restaurant, Bern's Steakhouse. Truly a not-to-be-missed location when visiting the Tampa area. We did have a good laugh, however, about the 'valet' parking which was literally steps from the door! 😂🤣

Haven is an amazing restaurant. It's definitely for a particular person. I enjoyed all of my food and so did my husband. I'd say the drinks are more on the masculine side but were so cool. The brussel sprouts salad was literally the best salad I've ever had. Our waiter was superb and didn't miss a beat. He made the night perfect, the ambience was perfect.

Attended a bourbon event here and got the chance to meet the Master Blender for Uncle Nearest. The staff was very accommodating, from the valet, to the reception desks when we lost a cell phone. I so loved this event and Haven was a perfect spot for it as they feature over 300 bourbons to choose from. The appetizers paired nicely with the two cocktails and the tasting of 1884 and 1856.

I have been wanting to try Haven for a hot minute so I decided to stop by for my birthday dinner and it was even more incredible than I imagined it would be. We sat on the patio because we intended on getting happy hour food and drinks but after seeing the main menu and the wine selection we opted for a shared bottle and some plates. There were three of us so we split the bread and fat (not pictured), beef fat mushrooms, lamb, gochujang beef, chicken thighs, and an espresso martini. Every single dish had ingredients that popped and made for a beautiful plate all while tasting even better than they looked (how is that even possible??).
The mushrooms were perfectly tender and soaked in a fat/ garlic/ shallot sauce, the lamb was well-cooked and juicy with a slight mint flavor and a wild tomato hummus that leveled up the whole dish, the gochujang beef was the tables favorite due to the presentation and mouth feel- it was light and melted in your mouth leaving behind a pleasant spice and the bits of crunchies added a great texture as well. The chicken thighs were cooked to perfection with the crispy side up, the sauce was perfect and while I usually shy away from okra, it tied the ingredients together and made for a comforting dish. The espresso martini was SO good, beans included so you know they’re serious.
Finally, our waiter was the best and helped us pick a tasty bottle of wine, you could tell he really knew his stuff and he even brought out a special bday surprise for me, then offered to help us find a spot in the Bern’s dessert room if we so desired (we couldn’t eat another thing but this was so kind). I will be coming back whenever I can splurge again and would recommend Haven to any food lover.

Yesterday we had one of the best dinners since we moved from NY to Tampa in Haven. My drink was the hi, boo boo, and it was so good. Their oysters are super fresh and they already have a sauce - a nice and delicious kick. Next thing was the coal grilled octopus and it was so amazing. The potatoes that came on this dish had a nice crisp outside and they were so tender inside. We also tried the duck heart with cheese quinoa. The duck heart was PHENOMENAL, it tasted like fillet mignon. I did not try the quinoa because I am allergic (bummer), but my husband tried and he said that this was the best quinoa he ever tried. My main dish was a snapper with crab dumplings. SO AMAZING. For desert, we asked for the olive oil cake with white chocolate, berries and vanilla ice cream - such a fine desert and the best way to end our dinner. I absolutely loved our host (I didn't get his name, sorry 😥) and he explained all the plates in detail. The restaurant is beautiful inside. This is a keeper, and you should go to Haven as soon as you can!!

Among the best, creative restaurants across Central Florida. Originally Sidebern’s, a way for Bern’s to create a non-steakhouse restaurant. Bern’s will always be a steak house. Sidebern’s, now Haven, allows for maximum creativity with food. The drinks, the cheeses, one of the best happy hours!! Definitely a must go to restaurant in the region.
Jennifer Poindexter
Good not great. A little bit underwhelmed. We ordered many different dishes but none really stood out. Cocktails were good and service was mediocre. We had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful waiter assistant- Kaitlyn who was a true delight.
Jeff Slaton
Great place to dine. Incredible menu as would be expected being a sister of the Best Steak house in the country Berns. The Berns filet was cooked perfectly and the macadamia nut creme brulee was fantastic. Highly recommend.
Bill Pitts
Y’all. 🙌
Beef fat mushrooms. Harissa cheddar cheese. Prosciutto di Parma w ESPRESSO BUTTER?!?!Warm Brussels sprout salad. Fruit spread, almonds, soft cheese with grapes. Crispy smoked olive oil cake.
Everything we tried was exceptional.
Abigail Czerniecki
Great for happy hour and an evening out. We loved their fun cocktails and cheese platter!
The wait staff is a little unprofessional considering how nice the restaurant is, but the management staff is very professional.
YV M
Excellent service and spectacular food. You just try the Brussel sprouts salad, the duck hearts, the octopus, the cheeses, bbq oysters, halibut, and olive oil cake - omg! Delish! And awesome drinks. Dined here twice already. Affiliated with Berns, but so much easier to get in, and have a fantastic dining experience which is what it’s all about these days!
Dave Cope
Really great restaurant in South Tampa. Sister company to Berns and it shows. The menu is eclectic with deep flavor profiles. I would def eat here again!!! Thomas was our server and he was very helpful since it was my first time here
Chef Sam
My wife and I were in Florida on vacation and last night we wanted a nice dinner since all the other places wasn’t to our liking. We booked last minute here at Haven. Unfortunately, they didn’t have anything indoor so we ended up dining in the patio. Adrian our server was so kind and definitely took good care of us. Great wine selection food was amazing cheeseboard was delicious. You should definitely try their grilled octopus.
Heidi Morales-Hake
My dining experience at Haven was okay. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. With so much hype around this place, I expected better food, but I will say the cocktails outshined the food. The service and staff were excellent, reservations were easy to come by and as part of our reservation, we had access to the Bern's dessert room. I did enjoy the atmosphere and ambiance of the place, which would make me come back for drinks.
Brent Warner
Haven, look, you want to love this place because of its connection to Berns. On the menu, they advertise Berns steaks, and coffee… I really wanted to love this place, but am a bit torn on this one.
The octopus was excellent, you must order this. The steak with the chimichurri sauce was good. The halibut was good. We’ve been told the cheese board is good. The cocktails were OK.
That’s it though - the menu is limited and could use a few more options. When we left, we both questioned if we would go again. The choice is yours.
Joma Saleem
We had a great dinning experience at Haven. The staff were great and helped us pick items in their big menu. Everything was great and had lots of flavor. It’s a sister store of Berns steakhouse so not only can you get a great steak but they will get a reservation to eat in the dessert room at Bern’s when you’re done
sergio lopez
Everything in this place works together, atmosphere, decorations,menus, food.
Our server was very professional knowledgeable and giving us time and suggestions at the time of ordering our delicious food.
We had the filet mignonette which was cooked to perfection. Our side was mac n cheese which was good! My wife order a spicy margarita that she loved as my old fashion was perfect.
We are not the ones to order dessert but the “dirty pie” you literally can’t get dirtier than that! It was to lick your fingers!!! This is our second time here and we will come back for more!
rita spevak
We really enjoyed our dinner here. Our server (wish I could remember his name) was wonderful, attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes, giving us helpful suggestions. The drinks were great, and the space is lovely for a date night dinner. I recommend!
Dina Reich
It was amazing! This was are 2nd time going. Our server was Madeline. She made the experience. The servers can make or break the experience and she was awesome! The service was fast and the food was excellent. We had the BBQ oysters (which I recommend), The charcuterie board, and the Gouda fried bites. For main entree the Red Snapper and the Coal grilled Octopus. Superb! The dirt pie dessert was so good along with the Bern’s coffee. We will definitely come back. I highly recommend for a date night!
erin kolbicka
I don't know why this place isn't more popular. Great food, great bar program, great staff. And most nights they can get you in to the Bern's dessert room. Also a great place for a private party. Fun private room looking into the kitchen and very reasonably priced for what you get.
Heather Guillette
We stopped in for an early dinner and ended up at the bar because of the fantastic happy hour! We hadn't been in quite some time (pre-Covid) and were amazed that they offered happy hour at the bar even on Saturdays. We enjoyed a wonderful cocktail and a small cheese board, then some really tasty escargot. Our bartender, Alyssa, was super friendly and attentive. She really made our evening! All in all, it was a nice evening and we'll definitely be back soon.
Shibin Mathew
This is the best restaurant I've been to in the Tampa Bay area. I highly suggest going with a group of people and splitting a bunch of different thing. Everything we tried was fantastic. Don't skip over the organ meats, even those were amazing. Not a single thing to complain about at this restaurant.
stella evans
Skip Berns and come here! The food is delicious and the drinks so good. If you like bourbon, they have a great selection of single barrel picks. The bartenders couldn’t be better. You need to try the cappuccino with whiskey.
Japhat gatura
We tried Haven bc we wanted to go to Bern’s but couldn’t get in and this was their sister restaurant. The menu is fancy and can be intimidating but our server Thomas was so knowledgeable about the wine and food menu that we felt comfortable ordering his recommendations. We had 9 things off the menu including dessert and it was all different and amazing! My parents don’t like brussel sprouts but loved the Brussel sprout salad! We really enjoyed our experience there and would definitely recommend!
Summer Burns
HONEST REVIEW - The atmosphere is nice for a date night/birthday dinner type celebration. It’s a more intimate feeling setting, no complaints where atmosphere is concerned.
The food is a 7/10. It’s not “stellar” or out of this world good, but it’s good enough to be considered delightful. Portion sizes are not big but not too small unless we’re talking appetizers, the appetizers we ordered were controlled/small size-wise. Macadamia nut crème brûlée did not taste anything like macadamia nut, just tasted like a mediocre crème brûlée. The waiter seemed to want to push us to order more food, which made us uncomfortable. He did not have the friendliest energy/did not seem too happy to be there at the time which of course affects the overall experience as well.
Overall, it’s good not great. The environment might be the leading factor, and the food is good not the best you will have by any means but acceptably good. It’s a solid 3.5/5
Karen Brams
I'm so sorry, I forget to take photos. I couldn't get into Bern's Steakhouse a week before we arrived so they recommended their other restaurant I was disappointed and hesitant but it too was a Michelin Restaurant so I made reservations online. Such a great surprise!!! It was a lovely time with my family. The staff was wonderful and atmosphere was relaxed and the food was fabulous. My son realized after having the Brussel Sprouts Salad that he loves Brussel Sprouts now. Makes mama happy to see him eating his vegetables and loving them. The Seabass and Scallops were awesome and the presentation was phenomenal. I loved my Steak and the twist on the sauce. The atmosphere was a bit loud but wonderful. Everyone was having such a great time. Valet could use 2 people on as he was very overwhelmed with all the traffic but handled it very well.
Enjoyed the very unique menu, but I was just not brave enough to try those menu items.
Thank you Haven, you rock!!
Tim Nassis
Went for happy hour before the Bolts game. Great happy hour burger for $10 and $6 glasses of wine. The pate on the happy hour menu was also delicious.
Val T
Celebrated a friend's birthday and we had a wonderful dining experience. Service is on point. They make great recommendations for cheeses. Those who complained about "not having full entrees" clearly didn't read or listen. We knew exactly what to expect and we enjoyed everything. My personal favorite, the Baked St Albans. So delicious! The almonds that come with your cheese... I can eat a tub of them! I wish the grilled octopus was more grilled, some of that grilled char flavor would've been nice. Next time I would most likely skip dessert and get more cheese instead. Or order the macadamia nut ice cream since I know it's amazing!
Jean Roberson
This was our first-time to The Haven. We were there for a special event but ordered off the menu which was very eclectic and creative. The shaved beef taco was great and the oxtail mac and cheese. The cocktails & Wine list were wonderful. We hope to go back in the future on our own and try the Delmonico steak and more yummy things from the menu
Lex Calder
One of the most unique fusion experiences I have ever had. Phenomenal choice of charcuterie fodder, inspired small plates, and a shared experience. The desserts were incredible, drinks just right and ambiance inviting. Server ultra informed and helpful, chef was gracious and proud of his work.
Alex Sheremet
My wife and I came here for our anniversary dinner.This place exceeded every expectation. The atmosphere was amazing, very relaxed and casual but at the same time you didn't feel out of place if you came dressed up, which we did. Good music playing in the background, people having a good relaxed time around you and it's not too loud to be able to carry on a conversation. If you want a sit down dinner, you get seated at a table, if you came with some friends for some drinks and an appetizer, sit down at a couch or lounge chair.
The food was amazing. Never having been here before. We asked our waiter Tommy what he would recommend and boy did he not disappoint. The drink selection was huge with something for everyone. We started with a Charcuterie board followed by a couple amazing dishes and finished with an awesome dessert.
This place has definitely been added to our list of favorites.
Zachary Joyce
Always a great experience! Their happy hour is where it's at. They always have 3 cocktail specials and great food specials to enjoy. I got the mushroom Swiss burger which was stellar (beef from Berns), roasted and raw oysters, cheese board, and rum old fashioned. All was excellent! Will definitely return soon.
Akhila Sankar
Haven - Has the best collection of cheeses, charcuterie and crafted drinks. Has indoor, outdoor seating and bar. Best place to spend quality time with family, friends and colleagues. Airy cheerful and elusive ambience.
Celina Bazinet
Unique tapas menu centers around trying the new and unique with friends. An extensive wine list supports the unique cheese menu. Small plates are fairly priced. Upscale atmosphere and highly professional staff make this place a must.
JS13
We had a wonderful dinner experience at Haven. The selection process was very easy and I love the small plate style of dining. You truly get to try more of the Chefs dishes and parings. My wife had a Beluga Caviar Carbonara, it was so rich and creamy just perfect. I got a version of Loco Moco with Wagyu Beef, it was incredible. Our waiter was fantastic helped us through great parings of wine and cheese that was top shelf.
Brad Monroe
Such a lovely meal! The Brussels sprouts salad was insanely good, and great happy hour.
Andrea Smith
Their salad is SO fresh. It's like it was just picked from the garden. My favorite Tampa restaurant
Shab Sachedina
Delicious and well thought out menu. Great drink and wine choices and fantastic service. We had a great time and truly enjoyed ourselves.
Adam Gerber
Delicious and unique food! Will definitely have to go back and try more of it!
Debbie Strong
Wonderful dinner, would highly recommend... can't wait to go back and try more dishes
Nina N T
Had a great experience back tonight. Service was on on the slower side but I was completely happy with everything we ordered. Love and appreciate the continuous changing menu. This place is on another level.
James Daily
Outdoor patio and super unique tapas style dishes. Fried brussel sprout salad is a must try!
Teachr Kimmy
An epicurean delight! Typical American fare with a decidedly unique twist...heavy emphasis on the tapas and charcuterie offerings.
JAM
Great place for food and wine. Excellent meat and cheese selection. I'd recommend for a great place for a long meal and conversation.
Jon Cotterman
Knowing their menu, and the types of food that they offer ahead of time, will really benefit the first time guest. The staff is extremely friendly and always available to answer questions. The food is top notch and ambiance is welcoming.
Jen Massabki
This place was great. Tried walking over to Bulla and got a bit of a cold shoulder from the staff. No biggie! I walked down the block and had better food! This place was so yummy. I don’t think there’s any dish you can go wrong with.
Matthew Schabath
Amazing service. Amazing food. Amazing drinks. One of the best restaurants in Tampa.
Thomas Faught
Tonight we are trying a place that's been on my want to try list for a while. We really enjoyed the great atmosphere and food. We will come back here again.
Maricel Roberts
The service is top flight. The food superb; we had the filet, fois gras, Brussels sprout salad and ice cream. Highly recommend
Ismael Cabrera
Excellent place, great atmosphere for a date night with the low lighting, and fantastic wine. My wife and I loved the cheeses the most.
larry K
Good food though a bit overpriced. Service is excellent, Erin is amazing. Drinks, beer and wine selections were vast. Highly recommended.
Lauren C
I’ve sat at the bar here a few times and the bartenders have been great. The food is always good and they have a great happy hour.
Michael Guerin
Haven is easily one of, if not the best, restaurants in Tampa with an endless creativity to their dishes that ensures there's always something new to try, and you never end up with a bad bite or drink, all while receiving the very best service and attention.
Simon Hargus
We had a great time here. The old fashioned wasn't that great but the food was amazing and so was the service.
neraka miller
I was looking to try a new place. You did not disappoint. Your bartender Gaven made amazing drinks and suggested some remarkable food. I cant wait to come back and try something different.
set fogman
I loved this place, the food was fantastic, lots of great scotches to choose from and our waiter was on point with excellent service and helpful suggestions.
JOSE ROBERTO COLINDRES LOPEZ
Nice place little expensive good menu parking is available not for handicap the only thing that I don't like it was the service the waiter was slow and his ingles was not the best.
Sonya Holley
This is a review from a visit last year I forgot to write. On a visit I was accidentally given egg in something after mentioning I had an egg allergy to my server. I have a horrible egg allergy after having a stem cell transplant.
I called the manager when I got home and they were super apologetic and gracious. I was invited back by the manager on the house to redo the dinner.
On the second visit - I was greeted by the manager, and was given the best meal ever and service ever! The manager made sure the chef personally re-checked my order to be allergen free as well!
Haven I tip my hat to your delicious food and your exceptional service! 5 stars!
George Niemann
We were impressed with the cocktails and wine selections by the glass. The wait staff was great and attentive. The meatball appetizer was large. However, the meatballs seemed to be overcooked (somewhat mushy), and the tomato sauce accompaniment was dehydrated. The octopus was good, and so were the Grilled Duck Hearts.
OND 13
We always stop here after dinner and I have no idea why. I want to try the entrees but still haven't. The cheese board, drinks, appetizers etc are amazing. The service is of course outstanding as well. They have some specialty drinks and I would suggest any of them. We've tried them all. I really can't think of anything bad to say about this place. If you haven't tried it you should I'm sure you'll agree.
Brandon Stricklin
The food at Haven didn't disappoint. We initially wanted to get into Berns but it was all booked up so we decided to try Haven while we were in town. The steaks, Mushrooms, Brussel sprout salad, and octopus were all excellent. The only disappointment was the service. Our family of 4 was forgotten about many times. We sat with empty wine and water glasses quite a few times while our waiter was standing around talking to a table nearby. Food was great service needs attention.
Taylor Sanger
Nice wine and champagne selection… food is definitely secondary to the drinks and atmosphere
Drew Drotleff
The staff is absolutely amazing! Alyssa works her wonderful magic behind the bar, crafting the best cocktails I've had (I'm picky) Jenna, one of their assistant managers is always on point with her bubbly personality and spot on recommendations.
Emily Prather
Haven is a great spot to go if you have a furry friend you want to bring along! The outdoor seating is shaded with cooling fans and lots of lush plants. The staff brought out fresh water and a beautiful peanut butter treat for Henry! As for the human food the happy hour was excellent and I plan to go back to sample all of the offerings! #alldogsgotohaven
Katie Frank
This is my new favorite restaurant! The food was incredible and the service was spot on. Thomas was our server and I never once had to ask for water. He filled it up before I even finished it every single time.
You MUST try the brussel sprout salad! Game changer!
Darnell Davis
Food was great. Service was great. You HAVE to order the Cheese Monger
Leenil Noel
Creative and tasty for when Bern's is full. A top restaurant in Tampa in its own right.
Liz Martinez
Service was great..food didn't impress me. I'm a great cook and foodie. Didn't meet my palate standards.
Nikole Phipps
Wonderful atmosphere with delicious flavors made for a excellent date night! Compliments to the chef, everything we tried was delightful! Try the tripe and beef taco, you won’t regret it! Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!
Loren Michelle Rayburn
I've been here twice and it's divine. I love their cocktails and charcuterie boards.
Dale Saville
Mixed Bag - I had the truffled pork rinds and grilled octopus. We shared the roasted olives. My wife had the Happy Hour cheese plate and the Key West Pink Shrimp. My 2 dishes were very good – portion size and flavor. The olives were seasoned with red peppers – a lot spicier than expected and detracted from the variety of olives in the dish. The cheese was a good value. However, the Key West Pink Shrimp were covered in a brown spicy sauce that masked the flavor of shrimp without adding any interesting flavors. The menu features a huge assortment of cheeses and charcuterie meats. Much of the rest of the menu adds red peppers for a spicier interpretation of the dish – good if you like spicy, otherwise too much red pepper on the menu. Service was attentive. Outdoor seating is nice, despite traffic noises from Morrison Blvd.
Morgan Rotberg
Great place for a cheese lover. There are so many choices you simply can't find better in Tampa. Happy Hour food options could use some updating. Cheese and meat boards are staples but scallop appetizer was very small and not satisfying. I purchased the Cheese Monger plate and would have liked more sides to go with it. Maybe a small bing of honey instead of having to spend at additional $6 for it. Overall I'd be back because the service is great and Cheese selection is amazing.
Ryan Brink
Wow, what a great spot for a date and dinner! Loved every minute of it. Food and drinks were excellent and got to have dessert at Berns which is always phenomenal. Will definitely be back.
JR Zuhlke
Great bourbon and whisk(e)y list. Not a lot of vegetarian options but at least there's something available for us. Good service, nice decor
Sydney Morton
Environment was nice and food was good. But service was meh.. our server took our order and didn’t write it down. Came back around 20 minutes later letting us know he forgot what we ordered and to repeat it. When the food finally came out, one of our entrees was still forgotten. I sat there not eating because my husband didn’t have his food. It took the server about 20 minutes to get to our table and ask why we weren’t eating. Once we let him know something was missing, the food came quickly. But he never apologized for his forgetfulness.
Carolina Daza
Great experience - from the food to the service it was excellent. This was on our list of places to explore as a possibility for a meal on Christmas Eve and indeed we will be returning then. We loved every item from the Offaly Good category, but the rabbit kidney dish was a standout. The shaved tongue also deserves a mention. Looking forward to our next visit.
Jason Green
Just go and thank me later. Happy hour is one of the best in town, hospitality specials on Mondays are amazing if you know your wine, beer and spirits. Dom Perognon and Ruinart specials for the champs lovers. Must get the mushroom dumplings and they have endless amounts of charcuterie and cheese. Erin the bartender is a 12/10.
Not open on Mondays anymore in 2023 however, everything is still awesome. And dumplings aren't around all the time, BBQ oysters are now my favorite.
Stefan Dolbashian
Just went for my birthday, and I can not say enough positive things about my experience just now. The last time I visited was the last time I’d ever been in restaurant with my father before he passed, and I could not have asked for a better tribute to my father. The phenomenal bartenders Alyssa and Erin took great care of us as they poured me the same bottle of whiskey I drank with my father that last time , and our phenomenal waiter Daniel provided us with one of the most personal and intimate dining experiences I’ve had in my life. Thank you Alyssa and Daniel for recreating one of the most memorable experiences in my entire life, and thank you both for keeping the memory of my father going strong and remembering a man who loved and respected the service industry. This experience brought me more happiness than you could ever realize. Thank you Haven staff.
Rene Brasholt
As always, great service, great drinks, great food in a upscale atmosphere.
Always worth a visit.
Patti Fige
Great food, service & friendly atmosphere ! Rsvp, of course.... Berns is the owner!
K C
Loved the experience here. The cheese is amazing! Our server was very helpful and knowledgeable about the food. Will be back!
Stacy Wrenn
Amazing food and service! Shout out to Stephen the chef who made great recommendations and food!
Errol Rosario
My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary, and Haven Tampa made it the most memorable. This establishment offers phenomenal food, drink, atmosphere, and service! Chef Steve curated some of the most delicate dishes we’ve ever had. I would recommend everyone reading this should experience it.
J K (JK)
Food was out of this world good! We shared a bunch of appetizers. The wagyu tartare was amazing, the tacos were the best we have ever had, and the sashimi was delicious. The decor and overall vibe is sexy but not stuffy. Staff is all very friendly and laid back! 10/10 recommend!
Sean C
Food was great, great beer, great service and staff. Was sat by the bathroom for some reason. Also, our oysters were served dressed in sauce already which is not correct. Instead of being on a plate of ice it was a warm plate of Rock Salt. What?! Gross. Our waiter took them off the check which was nice.
Clayton Smith
Pretty good. Spent a lot of money and left somewhat hungry which was surprising as all the portions are very small. Nice atmosphere. Limited speciality Bourbon cocktails despite having a ton of different bourbons. That's said, overall a good experience, although maybe not worth the money spent.
Anthony Ragnauth
Very nice atmosphere. Great food. Wait staff was pro in every sense. Parking wasn't a hassle either.
alex encinosa
This place is absolutely amazing!
The food is eclectic and unique.
Nikki Devereux
This is one of our go-to favorite restaurants in the Tampa Bay Area! We have celebrated anniversaries, birthdays and everything in between here. Love the food, wine list, knowledgeable staff, atmosphere, cheese selection, everything.
Crystal Lynn
We came here for the first time and our server Gordon was so informative and attentive. He knew everything about the menu. I recommend having him as a server. He was very patient and on top of things. 10/10 recommend
Keri Spencer
We always enjoy the cheese option, cocktails, and creative desserts. The entrees were all filling and tasty too.
Ross Chadwell
I've go there periodically and always enjoy my food and service.
James M
We went for Valentine’s Day, and I have to say it was ran very smoothly!! The waiter was fantastic, very attentive and personable (wish I could remember his name). The menu was set but there were 3 options per course (4 with dessert) including a vegetarian option!! I would have loved to try the full list, but we were impressed either way. Food was full of flavor, and the service put it over the top. The Haven Old Fashion Maybe one of my favorites top 5, at least!!
Jereme Monette
Boujee place with an upscale menu. Charcuterie board was in nice but nothing life-changing.
Amelia Bennett
Menu tends spicy in unexpected ways - definitely ask before you order about spice levels with unfamiliar ingredients. Cocktails are considerably stronger than one standard drink, Green Cadillac was a delightful variation on 'The Last Word' cocktail. Curious atmosphere. Duck was excellent. Will come back.
Marc Hamburg
The filet was outstanding, brussel sprout salad and Mac and cheese are also must haves
Lucia Di
Some strange stuff on the menu but everything was incredibly delicious.
Andrew Lindsay
Really enjoyed our evening at Haven. They have great cocktails, great food (highly recommend halibut, beef fat mushrooms).
Doug Blankenship
We had a bourbon tasting and food pairing led by the chef. It was an excellent outing and the food was fantastic. The bar area had an nice ambiance with favorable selections. Valet parking was available and the location was nestled in Tampa suburbs. I will enjoy Haven again very soon.
Scott Whatley
I took my wife and family to Haven for her Birthday. We had the most epic time. Folks, If you want fantastic food and a great ambiance this is your restaurant. Are waiter was 5 stars!! Daniel Safford, you made the evening memorable for us. Over the top service!! Folks ask for Daniel Safford, you will have an amazing time!!
Bart Brown
It is pricey. You are paying for a culinary experience. The charcuterie and cheese was very good. Lots of different tastes. The pork loin with sauerkraut was spicy and had spanish flavorings. They have a very extensive high-end wine list. Nice atmosphere. Was seated without reservation even though business was brisk.. Wait staff aim to please.
Mike
Great place. If you love meats and cheeses and small plates and great Bourbon and wine, this is it.
Mystery Man Stevo
Incredible food , drinks, cheese soooo good. If you like bourbon this is just absolutely incredible.
Jane
I came here for a birthday for my boyfriend. First off, the drinks are fantastic; they were some of the best we have ever had 💚💙 The food was also superb. We had the raw oysters, fois gras dumplings, oxtail fried rice, and duck. EVERYTHING was delicious. I wish we could have ate more, but we were so full. They also remembered it was bae’s birthday and gave us champagne and a fun sprinkler 🎊🎉 A big thanks to the restaurant and our waiter(s), the Matt^2. We will definitely come back for the fried rice. But EVERYTHING was so good!
Justin Burgess
Great food with a wide range of flavors. Since it's tapas style you can have a bite or two of many distinct flavors and textures. Their whiskey selection is amazing.
12/07/19. If I could give them another five star rating I would. Every time I've been here the experience has been nothing short of wonderful whether it be for happy hour drinks or dinner. The bar selection of whiskeys is second to none and the brilliant folks behind the bar are more than happy to guide you towards something new if you can't make up your mind.

We enjoyed a fantastic dinner at Haven last night. The wine, food, atmosphere and service were perfect. Our server, Riley was a great help. Everyone in our group is looking forward to dining there again.

Inventive culinary combinations equate to unique and delectable spins on classic Eurasian (though lean predominantly French) fare with the freshest ingredients. Mostly my dishes have rated far above what one could expect from a finer dining establishment in Tampa, though the competition certainly isn't fierce. Albeit the local restaurant circuit isn't well-versed in fine dining, this restaurant rates far above par in terms of ingredients and flavor profiles. The rudimentary menu does not generally reflect the dish one will be served... your choice will almost certainly surpass the low- or somewhat unpredictable- expectations set by the menu. As far as the service goes... well, it could do with a little "sprucing up". The servers are mostly polite and accomodating- sans the usual petite blonde bartender- but service can lag at times, leaving one wondering what has happened to his/her server. It seems the entire staff is tasked with working as a team, which mostly fares well for the clientele. Most reasonable menu requests are met with a viable solution without an upcharge, something I delight in seeing in a restaurant at any level. The wine list definitely is comprehensive enough for the above-average connoisseur, with a nicely curated selection from all major regions... after all, ownership is Bern's, a restaurant boasting one of the most (if not the most) extensive wine lists in Florida. The set craft cocktail selection on the menu is progressively on-point and most drinks are very tasty. Finding a good cocktail in this town cannot be taken for granted, so the focus on offering a unique selection is noted and one of the things that keeps me coming back. Overall, I highly recommend Haven for anyone not looking for a predictable dinner and seeking an upscale fare within a palatable ambiance. The atmosphere is appreciated whether indoor or out- at the bar or in the main dining room- and you will almost surely find at least one item of the offerings that will knock your socks off.
Paul Stuckey
Have a drink, order a few dishes to share. Good for after work or a weekend dinner.
Grant Jester
Bern's Junior with a tapas focus. We loved the food and the service was impeccable. Bourbon menu is very impressive, Stagg Jr. is a steal and the EH Taylor single barrel was excellent. Olive oil cake was recommended by the staff and was a surprise star of the evening. Also recommend the Bern's cappuccino.
Ana Pachano
We just went to Haven last night for Christmas Eve. The food and atmosphere was good, but I wish our waiter would have told us that the portions were so small. Perhaps we would have ordered more and shared. Didn't realize that no side dishes accompanied the meal. The desserts were tiny too. So after paying a hefty bill, we left dissapointed (and hungry).
Michael Laubach
One of my Top 3 places to go to for drinks and good food. Nice atmosphere and ambiance. Love the Military as well (1st Mon of every month = good time).
Tashah Baker
We came for industry night and Riley is the best server we’ve ever had. We had a four course shared dinner and he guided us in the right direction for what to order from appetizers to wine. 10/10 he really made our night special.
Celia Kuznitz-Leviton
This was our first time here. We were a group of 8. The food was good but very over priced. Most of the dishes are made to share with 3-4 people but they are not oversized portions so each person just gets a sample. The service was extremely slow!!! Totally unacceptable for the price we paid. Even though the food was good, we won't be going back due to the cost.
tavia hassani
This was my first visit to Haven and although the decor was lovely, I wasn't as taken with the food selection. The menu is Tapas and my friends and I didn't know what most of the descriptions were. Most of the menu items weren't very appealing looking, nor were they that tasty when we tried them. The food wasn't bad, but pretty pricey even for tapas. Our server was efficient and nice, but seemed rushed. My girlfriends and I still had a fun time chatting and hanging out in Havens good atmosphere!!
R. T.
Nice outdoor space, our waitress was great (friendly and accommodating), food was ok (a bit heavy on oils, but generally alright). Dessert was incredible. Great wine selection.
David Leviton
The food is quite good but the prices are very high. The value I feel is low and I will not return. Also, I valet parked my Tesla and the attendant couldn't unlock the car with my key. He didn't know how to unlock it. I still had to pay for the valet but I had to get the car myself. That was pretty lame. Ask me first or don't charge me.
Cassidy Alexander
Great atmosphere and service. Food was awesome, especially the charcuterie board. Cheeses were awesome! We made a reservation and were seated right away at a great table. Cocktails were awesome and priced better than I expected! Overall, I definitely recommend Haven and look forward to going back for another round of cheese!
SBMA Tampa
We had a group dinner here and it was simply outstanding. The quality of the food, wine and service was incredible. We really couldn't have been better looked after.
Ami Rogg
Had a beautiful time! Great food, great atmosphere, great vibe! Our waitress (Maria) was absolutely perfect!!
Hunter Clasen
It's a little fancy for me. The parking lots are full so you have to do valet, but it is only 3 bucks. Three dollar beers at happy hour is great, but the atmosphere is not quite relaxed enough for me.
G Michael
Best happy hour in all of Tampa. Great cheese and charcuterie boards, plus other interesting appetizers that rotate to keep it fresh and unique. For dinner value, I still prefer Bern’s (sister restaurant), but when I’m looking for a different atmosphere (Haven is more modern and lively) and to switch up dinner options, this is my go to!
Marc Kazen
Food was excellent with very unique flavors. The thing we liked the best was the mushroom toast. Some of the flavors were quite different but that's the point of a place like this. I would actually give it 5 Stars but the meal took almost 90 minutes from when we ordered and that didn't include dessert.
John Skordas
incredible food.....cocktails.... shareable....tremendous service......a bit loud
K B
Friendly staff, quality food, beautiful outside seating, great happy hour
David Cy
Went to a birthday party here. Waitress did a great job taking care of our table for 8. Extensive cheese and wine menu, as well as some delicious sounding entrees. Was not here for happy hour, but definitely sounds like a good time. Will be back for more!
Adam Hillyer
I had the best time here. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and very friendly helpful staff. Food is amazing, meat and cheese selection is a must do and a large range of wines and beers. They even had a Hungarian wine we love. Top notch!
Dawn Elliot
Our server, David, was so helpful in guiding us through the menu. We felt welcome and we'll taken care of. The menu was full of delightful adventure... items thoughtful in composition and execution... we dined for no less than two and a half hours on the outside patio, ordering bits here and there at our leisure. The area was cooled with fans but still quiet enough for each table to have its intimate conversations. Parking is valet only, happy hour goes until 7. I keep these two things in mind when planning my first visit if I were you. Enjoy
Andrew Stinton
Great selection, maybe too many choices. Everything looked great and I'd wished we'd eaten dinner here instead of just snacks. Prices seemed a little more like downtown prices but I'm a tourist here so don't take my word on that. Cocktails and wine were top notch and the cheese plate was great, too. We were happy to find a place open late. Maybe being close to closing is why the service was slow.
Emma Rose
Most delicious happy hour in Tampa!! Try the cheese board. They also have a delicious old fashioned and margarita. Great service, even when packed!
Cat Bowker
Spent a wonderful evening at Haven with a special group for my birthday last March. I really love small plates and tapas in general. With a group there are so many different likes and its a great way for everyone to enjoy a meal and try new things they may not have tried if dining alone.The food was delicious. The cocktails were outstanding and the wine list was very nice. Staff was friendly and really made the night special for me. Definitely worth every penny. I am sure we will all be back.
Christopher Oliver
Happy hour is such a fun time! 5-7PM & came on a Monday night. They only allow HH outside, at the bar, or in the smallish lounge area in front of the bar. I ordered the $10 champagne while my friend opted for the red wine. We were both happy with our choices. The champagne wasn't too dry, but not too sweet either.
Billy Gates
Food and service is great. I was really caught off guard on how good the food is. Different but scrumptious with really Innovative Interpretations of classic preparations. Highly recommend that you plan a dinner there!!!
Alexandra
Absolutely incredible experience! Every single item on the offal menu is amazing! Drinks and service awesome as well! Do yourself a favour and step out of your comfort zone, try something different, and surprise your tastebuds with a truly delightful experience!!
Grant Patterson
I'm so so glad that this powerhouse came into its own. I knew it would. Initially after opening I was consistently unimpressed. The menu looked better than it was in practice. But, I took a break and in the last year every experience has been a knockout. Eclectic menu where every dish is a star. The bar has all the backing you'd expect from Bern's titanic presence and they have a great happy hour too. If I ever need a slam dunk this is where I go. Highly recommend a group of 3 or 4+ so you can try a little of everything. Don't fill up on cheese and charcuterie - the options are nice but not my favorite in Tampa. The main menu itself has all the goods.
Parv Sibal
We went here for dinner. Location & atmosphere is good. However, this is not a place to go for dinner. What I felt was is - it's just an fancy/ expensive bar with a lot of drink options & expensive & appetizer. At times was hard to get attention of our server. Portions are really small. One has to order at least 2-3 things to feel content. Ceviche was a no go at all from everything we ordered. Fried brussel sprouts were good.
Emily Price
Great food and atmosphere for a late night dinner or date night. The portions were small, and expensive, but delicious! We chose to split the quail plate and the crab dumplings. We sat and talked for an hour over our drinks and took in the unique experience. Plates came out quickly and the staff was courteous.
Tonya Valdez
Not surprisingly, as part of the Bern's family group, this place is fantastic! The food is creative, with a nod to the familiar - elevating classic dishes. Ambiance is perfect for a date night. Portions are on the small size, so order accordingly.
Carey Watkins
Our daughter and her husband brought us to Haven last night. What a great experience . Our waiter David was very knowledgeable and helped us choose just the right items for the charcuterie. From black truffle brie to some funky aged cheddar, and t Kentucky Colonel Ham with pear chutney it was delicious. We followed with perogies, beef tartar ( our favorite), a Hawaiian beef dish and desserts. Each were presented beautifully and excellently executed. Fancy but laid back...not pretentious. Go!
Samantha Nichols (samanthanichols)
Absolutely AMAZING!
You will fall so in love with everything this restaurant has to offer. From food, to drinks, to service, to valet.
What I’m most impressed with was the fact that I did drink a little much, and left my car there. I was so nervous the next day I’d be in trouble since I didn’t have my keys or anything. Luckily I found my spare. Anyway, they were closed. It was Labor Day weekend. I showed up anyways,
Praying it would be there. Not only was it there, but the gate was open and unlocked just so I can get out, they left a printed note saying my keys were at a hotel right across the street and all I needed to do was pay the $3 valet fee from last night to get my keys back. What an incredible staff.
To the person who did this- THANK YOU! I’m so grateful for you.
And to the staff & chefs, I’m extremely impressed! Haven will now be my go-to spot for special occasions & when I want to impress some of my friends with delicious food & a wonderful atmosphere.
Sherman Milton III, REALTOR
Try everything on the menu! A group of friends and I went for a birthday and literally everything on the menu was incredible.
Our waiter LaMarl was the bomb! Ask for him and no one else. You tell him what he likes and he will give you suggestions on what to order. Great personality and very attentive if you want a great dining experience make sure he’s your waiter.
Kevin Case
Because it was tapas style got to try a few different things, however the bone marrow had some type of drizzle that over powered the marrow and the chicken liver pattae was a little sweet for me. Positives, great service, wine, cheese and beer selections.
Ethan Jones
We had a wonderful dinner at Haven last night. It was our first visit, and we chose to sit at the bar. The plates are meant for sharing and we tried quite a few items - oysters, grilled octopus, beer battered snapper, king pao asparagus, mushroom dumplings, and a meat and cheese board - everything was fresh and delicious. Love the ambiance as well. Can't wait to go back!
Mew Mew
This is my favorite happy hour. $5 wine and $5 apps. They have great cheese and charcuterie boards. And of course burn would never serve any cheap wine. Make sure you show up between 5 and 7 for the Haven happy hour. I highly recommend it
ginnie schuster
Beautiful environment, impeccable service, fabulous food and glorious wine and whiskey. Went for Valentine's Day fixed priced menu and whiskey or wine pairing. I hold mentioned when making reservations we would like a quiet table for our 20th anniversary celebration. Not oy did we get the perfect table but we were sent a lovely house bubbly to toast our special day. The food was delicious. Our service from beginning of night to end phenomenal. We will be back very soon!

We made a reservation online and the tool did not give us the option to chose indoor/outdoor table. When we got there it started raining uncontrollably and the hostess advised that we can seat outdoors but no open table inside. At least for an hour+. That did not go well, especially after sitting outside and getting rain drops all over our back (the outside was not fully covered). Our youngest daughter was the first to nearly lose her mind over eating dinner and taking a shower.
I expressed my frustration with the server, Matt P. Matt took charge of the whole issue, came back in 5 minutes with a table option inside. He then explained the unique menu and suggested the chef board along with the fried Brussels salad, and main menu options. Also suggested mac and cheese for the kids without the spicy ingredients. We took all of his suggestions including the drinks/cocktails. Our kids were done with their plates in 5 minutes, and took over the chef board next. I forgot about the rain as soon as I bit the steak. Matt P. turned our experience around 180 degrees and we will cherish that dinner for years to come. We will be back anytime we visit Tampa Bay. And hope to be seated by Matt; he was phenomenal. The pictures and comments do not do enough justice. Their food is unlike any other restaurant regardless of what folks tell you. I honestly thought I was eating steak for the first time in my life. If you are looking for a place to celebrate a moment or have a dinner you will remember for life, this is the one. I spent more than that before on restaurants promising the best food in town and was disappointed. This restaurant is superb and should get 5 starts. It’s a category by itself. Thank you and stay safe.
clos9891
Wasn’t sure what was better, the food or our server Justen D! This has definitely bumped Edison down from my #1 spot. Better flavors for half the price. Broad range of all meats, cheese, and drinks. This place looks like it will break your wallet but its so humble, I love it!
Alex Zapata
I went to Haven on Thursday, we got seated quickly and our waitress was awesome. On top of that, the food was AMAZING and I felt it was fairly priced. Recommendation, the Duck Taco are great and the Sangria is great!!! 5/5, 10/10 would recommend
Kimberly Kendall
Haven was amazing! Fabulous food and cocktails!
A S
Chill and sophisticated ambience. They say they're small plate but the portions are plenty. Charcuterie board is perfectly balanced; they'll serve you the right amount of bread for how much cheese you get.
Dale Denham
Had a bad experience with the server. She was rude and slow. Very surprising since usually the experience is positive.
Food is outstanding, however.
Also, never make a reservation on the patio. They allow people to smoke on the patio which is gross to even walk through let alone eat a meal with smoke all around you. We were inside, but had thought about eating on the patio given how beautiful the day was.
Spencer Rausch
The assistant GM, Hunter Bryant, is so great. He is such a gracious host and a fantastic bar tender. The restaurant itself is also wonderful. Great selection of cheeses and wines. Small plates are delicious, definitely one of our favorite restaurants!!
Lissandra Crespo
Celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary at Haven and it was a lovely experience
Our waitress Madeleine who goes by Maddy was so cheerful and polite
Got to meet Steve also who is a Chef, he too was so cheerful and so nice to hold a conversation with us of the Restaurant and a specialty that he brought out to us, then he and Madeleine surprised us with THE BEST ICECREAM! and a sparkler to top it all off.
Every item we ate was to perfection!
I will definitely recommend this place to all I know.
Thank you for making our Wedding Anniversary a day to remember, until the next one.

First time for me. Our waiter, Justin was very knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly. The whole staff was great.Food was incredible. Ambiance was spectacular. Everything was amazing as a whole. Very pleasurable experience.
Rick Erdlen
Wow what a great experience. Staff was only out done by the food. We had a large variety of food only disappointment was the tile fish but more of a personal preference than preparation. Bo is that is was service industry night. If I lived here I would be there every first Monday as well as many other days per month. Will be back
George Telegadis
Great bar. Excellent food. Make a reservation. Service staff at the front of the house were a bit gruff but thereafter it was a wonderful experience. Top 10 in Tampa.
Lihuen Zlatohlavek
Had great time at Haven on our quick trip to Tampa! Awesome happy hour food/drinks!
Ric Rini
Iv'e eaten a here only a couple of times and the food is really good but a bit too foo foo for me. I mainly partake at the bar for adult beverages, The bartenders really know how to make a drink and the head mixologist, Dean, knows what he is doing. Be a bit adventurous and ask them to make you one of their specialty drinks, you will not regret it. The happy hour specials are nice and very reasonably priced. Many times the wines they have for $5.00 a glass are a great bargain.
The place is trendy, upbeat and has a great atmosphere.
Allan
Absolutely spectacular, incredible food, great wine list awesome service. They took masks and social distancing very seriously. Love this place. Highly recommended!
Vacation Club Pro
Don't tell anyone but this place was great. The food menu was super unique, the charcuterie list was the most extensive I've ever seen and the whiskey list was quite impressive.
John Booker
From the moment I walked into Haven I was immediately impressed with the décor, ambiance and service. All of the my expectations were then surpassed when I tried the food. Haven is one of the best restaurants in Tampa that I have visited. The menu has a wide range of items and the dishes I have tried have all been fresh and flavorful. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a nice, quiet restaurant that serves consistently good food.
Irina Lowery
The menu is made in such a way that servings are tiny and you have to order many if them to share at the table or "make your own meal" kind of thing. It is a strange concept, especially if everybody at the table can't agree on the same things. Also, it turn out to be quite expensive. But at the end, the food taste good, but nothing special.
Christopher Smart
Great place. I love it. I highly recommend.
Sarah Ludwiszewski
5 star service, 3 star meal. New menu does not live up to the old one. The most disappointing was the shrimp dish. Spicy, cold mashed potatoes with a few shrimp in the middle? Yuck. The filet was a disappointing portion for the price and came out lukewarm. It was a nice cut of meat though. The portions all around were much smaller than before the menu change and although some of the items were acceptable, nothing will bring us back even though we have dined here numerous times in the past and loved it. We know Haven is an expensive restaurant and we’re fine with that, but the cuts of meats they used (besides the filet) were downgraded to chicken thighs, pork steaks and catfish. There’s just no value there.
Robert Ward (Tufaking)
Wonderful food and service. Very eclectic menu. The rabbit kidneys were exceptional. Just a great overall experience. Waaaayyyy
Better then berns in my opinion.
Kyra Williams
I can’t say enough great things about Haven. I’ve had a full dinner once, cocktails with friends twice and Happy Hour cocktails and shared plates a couple more times. Nothing has been anything less than stellar. The charcuterie selection is amazing and the cheese is possibly the widest selection in Tampa. All of the dishes have been incredible. Tonight we enjoyed oysters, blistered shishito peppers, duck tacos, the chicken thigh and pork belly wrapped asparagus. Even for the $2 taco week special, the size of the duck confit taco was amazing.. they don’t skimp!! The cocktails are delicious and the service is always amazing.
Michelle Collins
We also ordered the salami risotto which was a unique twist on a pretty classic dish. Not too gamey and the sauce was creamy without overdoing it. My friend swore by the macadamia nut ice cream. For $9 a scoop, I told her it that it better be worth it!! But it was... oh so devine!
Holland King
Atmosphere was nice. Cheese was great. Portion sizes were tiny for the price. Server and host were very nice and knowledgeable. Id recommend this place for an expensive first date.
mel B
Food was amazing. Service was ok. We ordered a total of 9 dishes. 5 came out and we just started to eat, thinking that they would bring the other 4 after we ate the 5. Waiter cleared our table. Took the plates and all of our silverware. The waiter came by and asked if we wanted desserts. We had to tell him that we still did not get our other 4 dishes. Service was very slow and awful.
Alex Kreilich
Everything was fantastic! They make it very easy to get back out again by keeping everything clean and safe. Bourbon selection was top notch as expected and all the food was unique and tasty.
joyce michele
Social distancing, reservations to enter, great happy hour, easy parking, masks on everyone. Felt safe. Bar at 1/3 CAPACITY BUT all seats taken. Tables spread out. All filled and no crazed I m immune sorts walking about without masks. Kudos to the management and staff.
Pejman Mahmoudi
I went to Haven expecting the environment to be more like Side Bern's, but it was very loud. Many young patrons my age were shouting out loud as if they were at a fraternity party. The management did not address the issue and made the experience uncomfortable for other patrons. I took the liberty and conversed with 4 tables beside us and they were all unhappy about the environment and noise.
On the other hand, the snack sized plates are absolutely delicious and excited ones taste buds and leaves them craving more. I would recommend to stop by early, share couple of plates and then go to Bern's to complete the experience.
Lisa T
Really loved Haven! Took my wife for a date night and our waiter was Lamarl and he was very knowledgeable. Being first-timers we let Lamarl choose our cheese selections and they were amazing. The vibe was amazing. The oxtail fried rice was our favorite of the night after the cheese plate.
Brittani Lynda (galaxybabi)
One of the most uniquely awesome restaurants my husband and I have ever been too. We have been twice and would definitely go back again. Rather than one big entre, they serve small plates of individual meat or veggie items so its best to order one of each! Or, if you're like my husband, two different meat plates. Keep in mind though, this is not the type of food for picky eaters. The first trip, my husband got bone marrow, and I got kimchi. Second time I got veal and spaghetti squash (DELICIOUS) and he got beef tartare (which is raw & not my style). The best part though is the entire menu of different cheeses from different animals and different countries. It can be pretty confusing but both times the waiter helped tremendously. All I said was I would want something creamy, and I ended up with the most mouth watering brie I've ever had. My husband got a tangy blue cheese that was also good enough to be worth mentioning. In conclusion, if you're adventurous and open when it comes to food, you should definitely check out this amazing hidden Tampa gem.
Adam Lopez
Food is delicious but it's tapas style so don't go with a big appetite (that was my mistake for nor doing research lol). Drinks are good. It's really expensive. Get ready to drop a couple of hundreds if your going with a few people.
Amanda Reid
Good happy hour drink prices, great small plates. Crowded on the Monday night we came. Got a seat on the pretty patio. Bar was packed. Decent service. Will return.
Brad Linville
Great menu great staff. All dishes are small plate and a touch pricey, only reason I give 4 stars. Best bet is to go with a group and share everything.
Leona Judge
We went for happy hour. Very nice $6 apps & $4 or $7 wine/cocktails. Nice pours on wine. Great selection of small plates & everything was delicious.
Maria Larkin
We arrived at Haven as a group of six for Happy Hour. Lamarl, our waiter, could not have been more patient and accommodating. He helped arrange a cozy little section of the lounge for us. He also graciously attended to my gluten free and cow free sensitivities with a charcuterie that dazzled us all. Haven is a beautiful designed restaurant with a lot of attention to detail--I love the design of the bar. The freshest and finest of food can be found here. And the wine list and other liquor list is quite impressive. Highly recommended. And thanks, Lamarl.
Jenni G.
Went for a bday party and the atmosphere and view of the kitchen were both amazing. The food was pretty good. To be honest, I was thrown back by the mac n cheese because it had too much going on. I liked the broccolini in it, but I wasn't crazy about the pear chunks. The wet wontons and the spicy pasta dish were both amazeballs!! Sorry I forgot the name of the pasta dish... it starts with a P.... I hope that helps. Everything else was okay. I'm a pescatarian, but my friends said that the skirt steaks were really good.
I'd like to see more fish options on the menu because I was seriously stuck like chuck. 🤦🏾♀️
The staff were all amazing and knowledgeable.
And the macadamia nut ice cream is a MUST!!!!! I swear i'll go back just for that!!!
James Franznick
great whiskey, great food, great staff, well managed, best bartenders in Tampa. order the grilled cheese sandwich, it's the best you'll ever have, changes ingredients maybe once a month, always excellent. also usually order the Jamon Iberico with five cheeses selected by the server. never had anything but great experiences here, A+
Josefina Galvan
EDITED: I really apologize! This was meant to be a five star from the start but for whatever reason it saved as a three star and without my lengthy review of how wonderful this experience was! My husband and I had a wonderful time here with great service and great food. Do not be afraid to try something new here! Again, this was always meant to be a five star review!
Dawn Souza
Very suave place. Happy hour is an opportunity to try a few of their menu items. Had a few which was filling. Drinks very reasonable at Happy Hour, but limited selection. Overall, we would return for more!
Jeff Laine
Staff was very nice. Food was average at best. Had a filet, it was over cooked and lackluster at best. Filets from whole foods or fresh market are much better.
Dale Shinskey
We have wanted to get to Haven for years but it always seemed like we ended up here on a Sunday and they were closed. It was awesome, great happy hour specials and great food and great bourbons.
T K
Always an awesome experience. Haven is Tampa's best wine bar. The new wine director Gregory S was fantastic. His level of service and his approach to what a wine bar should be was spot on. He's got the wine geekiness that you want from a somm but without the snootiness that so many other wine bars seem to have. He was very approachable and humble, and did not try to upsell. Our server, Adrian, did a perfect job pairing the excellent food with our bottle of riesling, grower champagne and a neat old bottle of NZ pinot. A final nice touch was being visited by the chef, Courtney, whose food was spot on. Thank you all for a very memorable experience!
Michael Dorsey
The service was fantastic. The atmosphere was perfect for a date night out, and the food was absolutely wonderful! Strongly recommend. We will definitely be going back again!
Dustin Fusillo
Casual setting with true fine dinning service! Our server LaMarl was one of the best I've had in any restaurant. He has a passion for his craft and a heart for service. We had a sommelier and cheese expert help us with our selections (they are considerable). Amazing food and wine to be expected from a Berns Sister restaurant. Berns is great but not somewhere you would go regularly. This is a great spot with try new dishes and the small plates are wonderful for sharing. Get outside your comfort zone and enjoy! Can't wait to go back.
Conner Barraco
I loved this place! Strongly suggest Brussels and pork belly. They were unique to how many people do them. The sommmelier Greggory made the dinner even better with wonderful suggestions on everything.
Keyla Billeter
Loved the happy hour menu with Charcuterie sample board and unique selection. Was a refreshing change from the usual. Ambiance and decor was also next level.
Lynne Schutte
Everything was wonderful! The food was delicious with such unique flavors. Decor and lighting excellent. Our waiter must have come directly from Italy.
Debbie Bird
If you want a food experience...go to Haven. The menu is amazing and the staff very informed and helpful (especially LaMarl). The spices and variations exquisit. There is such a span of options you need never be redundant. I am a foodie and have not found better in Florida. Check it out.
Will Englehart
The whiskey selection had to be the best in the area! Food was fantastic especially the filet. Definitely try the Chef's Choice Charcuterie!
Anand Shenoy
Amazing mix of cuisines...nice atmosphere. However tried their smoked chicken biryani, and wasn’t very impressed. They can do better! Gave 4 stars.
Stephanie tran
All in all it was ok I don't know, but my taste/ opinion- food wasn't that great. My husband agrees. For the total price that we paid, it was not worth it.
Daniel Martins
Amazing spot! Not only for wine fans (they have an outstanding wine selection and extremely knowledgeable somm in Greg). But also for foodies and even beer lovers. It’s a must visit in Tampa!
Glenyse Thompson
Great for meat eaters and vegetarians. Try the Prix Fixe, with the Wine Flight. The wines are paired according to whether you choose the Vegetarian Prix Fixe, or Traditional Prixe Fixe. Fabulous! The food is simply fabulous. Some may say the portions are small, but you are eating a six-course meal, and by the time you arrive at dessert you are searching for more room to put it in. It is worth every penny. Do yourself a favor and book a room at the Westin, ten minutes away and park your car. Take a cab there and back to the hotel so that you can enjoy a totally stress-free evening. We are looking forward to returning.
Brian Bradley
An experimental epicurean experience you would expect from the people that own Bern's. All of it was well thought out.
Stephen Catt
Friends: How was Haven?
Me: The charcuterie was amazing!
Friends: How was the rest of the meal?
Me: The charcuterie. Was. Amazing.
Elizabeth Michele
Larceny Barbecue pop up lunch was amazing .Erin the bartender was a rockstar handling the bar guests and service bar .Everything was fresh and delicious.
Mark Bratanov
Are you a cheese connoisseur? Do you enjoy a bit of charcuterie with your imported Spanish Ribeiro wine?
The environment is reminiscent of the food scene in Brooklyn and Portland. In the Haven there is an emphasis on experience and food that genuinely makes every meal impossible to hate.
Great place for a romantic date, a group of friends who enjoy food, or the well-traveled businessman.
Don Ketterling
Wonderful and imaginative tapas-like menu. You'll have to come back at least 3 times to get the full menu, but the skirt steak and octopus are musts on your first visit
Johan V
Good place for happy hour. Cheap wine for $5.
Patrick Smith
5 PM reservation, seated in a dining room that was cafeteria style, rows of long tables according to party size with center isle. We were up against a wall at a table for two with a table of four arms' length away, so this room was inappropriate for two. As the room filled up it became quite noisy. We ordered..
Karan Sethi
Loved the wine and cheese plates; must try!
Brian Hartnett
As a foodie, all I can say is go to this restaurant. You will not be disappointed. Menu rotates constantly so unable to give a recommendation but I suggest going with a group and sharing as many menu items as possible.
Lisa Gondeiro
Very relaxing atmosphere, highly attentive staff, amazing food with plenty to choose from, very broad cheese and wine options, best dishes in Tampa hands down. The best service I've ever received.
Mai Fabic
Beautiful restaurant matches beautiful food. Reservations necessary. Went during happy hour and restaurant was already filled. Service was prompt. And clean 😊 …
Riley Murphy
Easily the best food in Tampa. Oysters and cheese program are amazing. If you haven't been you're doing yourself a disservice
George Normandia (NMPTampa)
Great amotspher, amazing food, and a very knowledgeable & friendly staff. Ask for Riley, he helped us pick some of the best food we have had in a very long time.
Tammy Levent
Having visited for the first time it was a great happy hour. I'd like to see more selections on their menu for happy hour but other than that it was a great time feel was great Vibe was great can't wait to go back
John S
Amazing place. Wish their happy hour was for the entire place and not just the bar and the very small lounge. Even if it included the outside patio that would be great.
Maya Verros
We went there for the first time from an invitation to and investment company business meeting. The staff was very nice and efficient and very professional in handling guests, the private room was comfortable and large enough to accommodate adequate seating.
Melissandra James
Great atmosphere absolutely beautiful inside food was delicious.
Christopher Nash
Great wine list here! The food comes out in small plates (not my favorite) however, it's always delicious.
tracy sicard
There are no words to describe how fantastic this pace is. From the charcuterie, to the small plates, to the amazing 560 different bottles of whiskey. I can't wait to go back even though it's a 2 hour drive hour me.
Jessica Jordan
Best happy hour in town! Amazing menu. Staff are incredibly nice and helpful. Ambiance is perfect. I love it here!
Benjamin Irby
Been here a couple of times for the cheese plates and both times it was excellent. The beer list is a bit limited but there is a huge focus on the whiskey selection.
Misha Patel
Coal Grilled Octopus substitute Octopus for Chicken Thighs. Sooooo good! Top it off with a side of Stagg Jr. Barrel Proof.
You’re welcome (;
Chris Cotton
Awesome taste sensations! Really. I had flavors I hadn't had before and the drink and spirit possibilities were astonishing. Really really nice evening
Fred Flinstoneski
Cool spot next door and related to legendary Berns. Fun happy hour if you can get there early enough. Otherwise pretty spendy and upscale. Noce patio. Lovely decor. Charcuterie n cheese. Grest service especially from bar tenders.
Nancy Andreano
The wine and cheese are on point. Everything we ate was delicious but they say the plates are shareable and I'm not sure that's really the case.
Brian M
Haven has one of my favorite upscale happy hours on weekdays 4-7 ! They got $2 brews, $3 mixed drinks, $4 wines, and $5 apps!
