Reviews of The C House
Katie Clark
Went on a lunch date to The C House and it was so delicious. I wish I would have known about this place sooner because I definitely will be coming back soon. All of the food was incredible. The service was quick and pleasant. I definitely can’t wait to go back and try their brunch menu soon!—- Also, their sangria is the best I’ve ever had!!

The C house does an excellent job of amplifying their space and making amazing use out of their small space. It’s cozy and cute offering several seating options…. including just chilling by the fireplace. A fireplace in Florida? Right! It’s silly, but works so well for this beautiful space. Our server Michael B. was such a treat. The highlight of our visit. He convinced us to eat dessert, complimented us, was super attentive, courteous, and had great energy. However, the biggest downfall was, sadly the food. Despite this being a really chill and fun neighborhood restaurant; the food is pretty mediocre and a bit overpriced for what they’re offering. I love the concept of the C house and I love the closeness it feels like it has to the community, but the food itself wasn’t my favorite. We were also given an extremely overripe avocado for their happy hour appetizer. If you aren’t looking too deep into your meal and just want to enjoy a beautiful outing in a beautiful place I would suggest the C house. I’m sure the cooks and the crew are working hard in the back; however the menu and space says one thing and the food showed another….for us personally.

Second time here! Which means the food is tasty to say the least. Bartender was amazing and attentive as we sat at the bar. The good was so delicious and beautiful to look at as well. The live music just added to the amazing ambiance. Love this quaint place💜
Megan Young
Was too warm to sit outside but the inside seating was fabulous. Very fun vibe and the food tasted amazing. Significant other, who is a fairly picky eater, thoroughly enjoyed the "Chicken Euphoria" and I loved the Fish Tacos!
Brent McFerrin
The C House is a great spot for unique foods and drinks. Their "build your own board" is great for charcuterie and cheese lovers! The entrees come in large portions and are quite delicious. They have several drinks and offer some new takes on classic cocktails. Lastly, the cheesecake is phenomenal and comes in a generous (giant) slice!
Ana
This place was such a nice vibe very very chill. The sangria both white and red were absolutely delishhhh. The food was really really good I got the gnocchi and oh my gosh… they best and biggest gnocchi I’ve ever had. The chicken was super juicy, sauce was so good a lot of flavor! I will definitely be coming back.
DeAndra Bolden
Went here for a brunch to celebrate a friend's birthday! Everything came quickly except the check lol. A great place for upscale food, the live music was okay, steel drums were good and not too loud where you couldn't here the conversation. Clover Club was fantastic! The parking lot is only valet now which was kind of annoying but if you get there early it's easy to find street parking.
Mary Flores-Camacho
I went with a friend and her grandson. It was our first time visiting The C House. Our waiter, Michael, was the best. He checked on us throughout our meal to make sure everything was okay. The manager also asked if we were pleased with our meal. Everyone was super friendly and attentive. I had the chicken club on a bed on lettuce with a side of fries. Everything was as expected. For desert, we had the cheesecake. It was more than enough for two people. We even had some to take home. I would recommend this place.
Ehrin S
Dear lord the cheesecake absolutely has to be experienced, make room!
I know it's hard to get parking or a table here at night or the weekends, lunch during the week including Fridays is easy to do. Everything they do is A plus, burgers were outstanding, charcuterie is also very delicious. Can't recommend this place enough.
Valli Funk
I was amazed at the flavors I experienced here. I got a chicken sandwich, ceasar salad, and the brownie cheesecake. I love how they paired pickles, chicken, and honey on that sandwich. My friend got a cheeseburger that looked delicious. Even the burger bun is amazing. Also, what a beautiful venue! Would love to see it larger because I am sure it gets packed on the weekends. I'll definitely be back. The price is almost a deal with the elevated flavors you get.
Ana Huynh
Good food, outdoor seating available, sometimes live music! Love the vibes here and the extensive menu of food and drinks. The staff is great with drink recs that suit your taste and are accommodating to any that don’t! Food was cooked perfectly. Parking can be limited in the lot, consider street parking and walking to location.
My Lam
The food here is delicious! The cheese board delicious and the wings are delicious! Totally recommend coming here! The prices are reasonable! The service is good and the waitress make sure you understand what you’re ordering! A very good place for brunch! I also love the atmosphere and decorations! They have many option for their drinks and don’t forget to save your stomach for their desserts! The only downside is parking spaces are VERY LIMITED and looking for parking is HORRIBLE!
alexa k
really pretty and cozy venue, the vibes were perfect for brunch! we sat inside for brunch after making a reservation the night before (super easy process) and split a three selection charcuterie board, which was overall really good but as a party of seven it was a little small for us, so we probably should’ve got the five selection. it was a really good charcuterie board however, we ordered the chorizo, manchego, and drunken goat cheese, and it was excellent, my favorite was definitely the goat cheese paired with the olives and nuts. i ordered the chefs featured burger, which came with burrata, pancetta, arugula, and tomato, and honestly it was good but not my favorite burger, but overall really high quality, just not my personal preference. the fries were delicious, and probably my favorite part of my entree. i also ordered a chocolate cupcake with vanilla icing, and that was pretty good, but I tried some of my friend’s salted caramel cheesecake, and that was absolutely amazing. overall really nice place !
Dan Valla
First time visit and it was amazing. The perfect mix of Fun place and Great Food. We normally like the bar sitting areas for craft drinks and good vibes but at C House, AJ made this a great food experience as well. He was attentive, knew the menu well, and made us feel at home. But the whole team behind the bar was great. A new home away from home.
Alaina
I loved this place. The decor was very cute and the crawfish Benedict was probably one of the best Benedict’s I’ve ever had. My fiancé had the chicken and waffles and said it was okay, tough waffle I guess. Overall great flavors and service. They also have discounted mimosas on Sundays.
Kayleigh Sandlin
The C House is one of my favorite dinner spots! Their charcuterie boards are amazing and so fun to eat. Love their lamb pops too! Tried the ravioli recently and it’s the best pasta I’ve had in Tampa. My husband always gets the gnocchi and it’s also incredible. The first time we went, we were lucky to have Kent as our server and always request him when we go back! Phenomenal service and food every time!
Haley Martin
Alex my server was excellent and attentive! My burger was incredible and cooked just right. The apple and croissant bun make this quite the treat! My first time here I tried the charcuterie board and an old fashioned both were top notch! Next time I’ll try the cheesecake, I’ve heard such great things about it!
Angela Badell
This is a "C" themed restaurant where menu items begin with the letter "C" and a nice mix of indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is atrocious with the lot only accommodating around 20 cars leaving patrons to find street parking. This is a neighborhood, so beware the tow signs...there was a truck being towed as we arrived. The menu has a great mix of offerings. We ordered the 5 piece charcuterie board and it tasted amazing, unfortunately it was none of the cheeses and meats we ordered. The server, Bella offered to bring the missing items but we elected only an additional 2. For entrees we ordered the short rib with mashed potatoes (very hearty and delicious) and the gnocchi carbonara, vegetarian version with mushrooms (delicious but a little salty). It came with bacon and no mushrooms. The server comp'd the gnocchi and brought us dessert to go. All in all the food was tasty but there were kitchen issues.
Robin Stewart
"C" est bon! What a fantastic outdoor and indoor venue! I loved the subtle blending of masculine and feminine elements inside the restaurant. (However, you can't eat a wall...although, at this place, I might have tried.) Our service was spectacular (even at 12 o'clock on a hot afternoon.) Sergio was lovely and helpful and was graciously wearing many hats today. And the lovely manager checked in with us and the others specifically to ensure our meal was perfection.
And, that meal...my Dearest wanted the poutine (C anadian Fries). I thought it would be too heavy on such a hot day but the fries were crispy even under that blanket of cheesy, gravy goodness.
He had a refreshing iced tea, while I had the white sangria (I can't remember the "c" reference for the sangria because it was THAT good.)
For the actual lunch, I got the "Call Me Fabio". It's like a mushroom risotto "bowl" but in the most extravagant "Yeah, fresh kitchen is ok...but I'll stab you for this dish" sort of way. (Fresh Kitchen is nice and I'm not a violent woman but the warm, creamy risotto has this cool fresh spinach side with red peppers and soft onions...and did I mention the feta?)
My boyfriend had the Crustacean Roll, and it was creative and "C-rustucculent". (I didn't know that homemade C ocktail sauce could be so delicious.)
Anyway, go to the C House. Amazing food. Lovely people. And, most of all you deserve it!
Ana Reyes
Great spot for Sunday Brunch. Recommend making reservations ahead of time as this spot does get busy in the afternoon. The C in the name is mostly known for the charcuterie boards and champagne selections. You can make your own board out of a variety of selections. The waffles were delicious as well as other main courses. All the staff was very pleasant and quick service made this a good visit. They are pet friendly so dogs are welcome as long as they are on a leash: they have indoor seating and outdoor. There is a full outside bar and live music! You can choose from sitting under the roof to in the sunny area with shade from giant umbrellas or go all out and sit in the plain sunlight in their mini deck. Great for those sunny florida days. I would highly recommend this place for good food and outdoor environment
Cynthia Molina
The espresso martini is yum also the jalapeño margarita. The charcuterie board was to die for! The jams and honey they provide with it so delicious, I cleared the entire bowl. My partner had the chicken euphoria which was yummy they use this brioche croissant bread so bomb. The only thing that wasn’t a win for me was the jerk chicken pasta. It was nothing jerk style at all you can say it’s a chicken pesto basil pasta. It was 6/10 but everything else was great. I enjoyed my drinks and meal
Erin Stapleton
Great experience all a round ♥️
Everything on their menu starts with our named with the letter 'C'.. even their alcohol drinks and wines (the name of winery, your or originating territory)
Inside and outside dining, nice atmosphere and great service.
My wife and I stopped in for lunch bites. Sharing a charcuterie board, poutine fries and a chicken sandwich. Each item was well executed.
The cheese selection was nice and well rounded to for all tastes. You get to select what you want!! Even the accoutrements (nuts, pickled veggies and fruit) were nicely suited.
The poutine fries were absolutely delicious. The gravy, the cheese curds and fries were perfect.
The chicken sandwich we shared... Buttermilk batter, moist delicious came with a honey thyme sauce.
If you haven't come, you should. Make a stop, it will be worth it.
So why not five stars? I personally felt, even though delicious and executed nicely, done of the food could have used some seasoning. For example adding some seasoning into the chicken batter and most importantly there wasn't any salt/pepper on the plain fries .. they could've benefited from seasoning. Lastly, we had uninvited guests sharing our honey on charcuterie board and flying during our meal... Definitely a bee hive close by. I'm not offended that they dropped by, but I could see a family being bothered by them or afraid of them.
Definitely so by and enjoy this worship restaurant!
Alyssa Y
Okay let’s be honest, the “C” gets stretched quite a bit… “classic cut” fries? It is a cute concept and the charcuterie boards and cheesecake are definitely the star of the show. I thought everything in between was just okay.
Muthoni Harris
The ambiance was good. We went there bc they have gluten free options. They also have a kids menu which had gd options. The steak chimichurri was chewy. I wouldn't order it again. Fish was grilled and wasn't that tasty. I'd try it blackened. The burgers were excellent. No parking. You'll have to valet.
Ana Soloviov
Pretty good/ basic for brunch, good charcuterie board and crawfish cake Benedict. fun fact: everything starts with a C on the menu! They had live music outside and ac inside but also some flies
Sergio
First time visiting and it was a very nice experience! We had a reservation and they were ready for us at the reservation time, so no unnecessary wait. The service was pretty good. The drinks were fantastic and big fan of the board. Tried pickled peaches for the first time and now I am obsessed! 😍 The grape mustard was 🤯 The chicken sandwich was good but the burger was overcooked. I asked for medium and got well done. I did not send it back out of personal choice because I hate wasted food and it is something that can be remedy with feedback. This was going to be a 4 star review but a single person there made all the difference. Allie was just clocking as we were getting close to the end of our meal and happened to walk by our table. She complimented my hat and the brewery it is from. She struck a conversation with us and took the time to make sure we were satisfied with our experience. Just felt absolutely comfortable, organic and genuine. Folks like Allie really just make the absolute difference between a pretty good to an excellent experience! Overall, I will definitely be back!
Kyle Pritt
10/10 RECOMMEND.
Their food is phenomenal, no joke. I got their chicken euphoria sandwich and it did not disappoint. The honey sauce, GOOD. The French fries, GOOD. The chicken, GOOD. I literally don’t have a single bad thing to say about this place.
We had Ken as a waiter and he was very nice, fast, and overall very pleasant. The atmosphere is relaxed and the perfect place to enjoy a lunch.
Will definitely be returning!
Melissa Previte
For sure the spot to be at for brunch in the Tampa Heights area! Amazing handcrafted cocktails, local craft beer and the most well thought out charcuterie boards around. They have cheese I've never heard of before, and that's quite okay because if you order one of everything, the server will explain each item as the boards are served your way. They have nice live music at times that is very moderate so you can still have table conversations outside. The ONLY downfall is parking, especially on the weekends. You are very lucky to get a spot in their small lot. Most streets behind the restaurant allow parking, but watch for no parking signs, and follow them, as you don't want to be towed.
David Eggertsen
Best burger I've had in Florida. I also asked for a house sauce to go with my fries and that should be the default. It was way better than ketchup.
Tu Nguyen
Allie was our server and it was the icing on top of a perfect experience here. The flavor of the food was a direct correlation to its quality and everything was cooked with pristine care. Our reservations were at 730pm on a Sunday and even though kitchen and bar closed at 9pm they allowed us to hang and finish up all the way until 10pm! Love the rockstar experience.
Amanda Ryan
Every single meal I’ve had here has been superb. Tonight I got the skirt steak medium rare with mushroom risotto topped with chimichurri. Then I topped it off with the lemon cheesecake covered in a blueberry sauce. The wording is fancier than what I recall. Every time I am in the Tampa area for work, this is a go to for me. The charcuterie boards are what got me hooked coming here so absolutely 100% get one to start. You can always take the cheese home, who doesn’t love left over cheese?!
Knowlton
We really enjoyed the easy going vibe and AMAZING cocktails. Live music was great but not overpowering. Our friendly bartender, Sergio, suggested his charred rosemary lemon specialty cocktail creation that is one of the best drinks I've tasted. The fish tacos were delicious as was the crustacean roll. Will definitely be stopping by again on our next Tampa visit!
AnneMarie Cadrin
My new favorite restaurant! Mocktail was fantastic, beautiful menu and really exited to come back with my husband for date night. Ambiance is very nice the place is beautiful, easy access and parking available on site. I am French Canadian and the authentic poutine draw me in for a quick lunch, definitely above expectation Mmm! Great service also!
Giao Cretsi
Delicious appetizers and drinks. Desserts were so yummy. Parking is rather tight but valet helps.
Prem Mithilesh Morampudi
Love the ambiance and vibe. Live music, i love the espresso martini more than everything. Great food, Great Drinks.
Mary Ann Mattox
Great experience here! We sat outside and the large fans they had everywhere kept us cool. The outside area ambiance is beautiful and relaxing. Everything we got tasted really good and our waitress was SO good! She was super nice and knowledgeable about the restaurant, the owners, and the menu. Service was A+++
Barbara Brown
So food is fine. Service is fine. They got a parking problem, they serve way more ppl than there parking spaces allow. Ppl get creative and get towed quick. Even if u shop from harvest bowl you’re at risk for a $200 tow bc the C Hose lot is small and full. Too bad business is all aspects not just food and service. I go spend $100 bucks at C house and $200 tow. Just go to Hyde park or mid town.
deborah ames
The place was remarkable for a busy Friday night. Bella the waitress had a remarkable memory and acuity for her job as our personal waitress for the evening. Just had a remarkably fun and lovely time. The food was very well done. A pleasure to look at and delicious. Need I say more?
Sarah Scarpato
A small , cute and rustic restaurant. I feel like I stepped into a Pinterest board. The charcuterie was delicious. Only thing that bothered me was the amount of flies. They have a garage door front entrance. Granted there was an air curtain to keep bugs out, but quite a few slipped through. The bartender got our drinks wrong, but I hate wasting good alcohol so we drank them anyway. Overall it was a good experience and I'd definitely go back.
Chris Leyva
Sat at the bar with friends listened to live music and the rain and had a great time. The food was great, the drinks were great - esp happy hour - and the service was great. Overall good time and look forward to returning.
Nicholas Shaffery
Just finished an amazing birthday dinner. This restaurant went above and beyond to make my night special. Special thanks to Nicci!
Xavier Patel
First off this place, food and hospitality is phenomenal.
I'd like to give a big thank you to Stone the general manager who was beyond personable and kept attending our table to check up on us and many other table.
I'd give this a 5 star rating and will return with our family and friends. Not to mention their breakfast shots are $5 specials on Sunday's.
Thank You Stone for your service.

The C House is getting 5 stars because it's like a 5 star quality! Service is amazing and real cool positive energy from the bar staff to the wait staff all the way up to the General Manager...Food is top notch! Highly recommend coming in for Happy hour from 3-6 Monday-Friday. Live music with an awesome vibe! Definitely worth checking out! A TRUE GEM IN SEMINOLE HEIGHTS! 😀
Heidi Hugh
I had been dreaming of visiting and once I did, this place did not disappoint! I saved it especially for a kid-free date night and my husband and I had the best time. The food was delicious, dessert was spectacular (GET the cheesecake!), staff was attentive and kind, and the atmosphere was perfect- complete with cool vibe live music- that somehow played in perfectly to the rainy night. I already can't wait to go back!
Darlene Pruett
A great place. We stumbled upon it while looking for a good lunch spot near the zoo. The charcuterie board is awesome! So are the Buffalo cauliflower bites. We enjoyed a nice bottle of rose'. They have nice wine glasses. Our server and the manager were great.
Jenna Vanmatre
Great food, great music, the entire atmosphere was great! Friendly staff
John Leavengood
Love the chicken euphoria sandwich. Sticky with honey but oh so good! Also love the lamb pops when available.
Alexander Zwick
The environment and service at this restaurant is gorgeous
We sat outside at the bar, live music, beautiful decorations.
The only miss was our food was a bit bland and disappointing.
The manager Stephanie comped the entire bill because she could tell we didn't enjoy.
She also offered to provide us new meals.
I'm happy to come back and try a different dish because we saw other tables food and this restaurant clearly has good food.
Ferran Lam
Food was good ordered the mussels and crab cakes.. we sat out said which was nice. I would come here again. I brought my 4 year old son to a birthday dinner gathering and it was ok. There was a DJ which added atmosphere. Parking situation is not the best as valet is 6 dollars and the restaurant is located in a neighborhood so either get there early 15-20 min to look for parking or pay for the valet
Teresa Goldberg
The C House did an exceptional job today hosting my company’s holiday party. They were Abel to a conflate a large party provided great service and the food was delicious. The staff was courteous and Cabot the manager was on hand to direct the event. He was professional and a pleasure to deal with while booking the event and during the event. He weren’t above and beyond to ensure that the event was a success.
Twinkle Toes
The service was exceptional. The food was on point. Thank you for such great service and food.
Mechell Lord
Smallish place with incredible food. It looks and tasted super fresh! Portions seemed to very some from person to person. Some seemed large and other a bit on the small side. Service was 👍 great! We will return to try other menu options 🤤
Jsin Diaz
went for brunch. it's outside is nice. live music, solo artist. didn't catch her name but she made the ambience pleasant. did was delicious. you have to try their cheesecake. we ordered 3. I loved my berry cheesecake pairs with the sangria
Andres Diaz, Realtor
Just an overall great place to hang out, have incredible drinks, great food and listen to live music. Indoor and outdoor seating . Kind of neat that everything on the menu starts with a C. You probably want to make a reservation. Casual dress is fine. Valet parking
Tino Rivera
I’m eating right now and I have to say the crab cakes were moist yet had a beautiful crispy sear that had the most amazing crunch. Wings were delicious and crispy as requested. Really flavorful Cajun tocos with a unique and beautiful seared strip of fish for an amazing texture. For deserve to have a chocolate cupcake with chocolate buttercream icing. The cupcake was soft, smooth and delicate on the taste. Overall amazing dinner. I recommend couples.
Brigitte Ferdinandsen
Finally a location that’s perfectly ripe for happy hour with your coworkers. Exceptional outdoor seating, fantastic service, wide variety of libations paired with gourmet offerings. The BEST Buffalo Cauliflower, trust me you will not be disappointed.
T Essex
If you're able to find a parking spot, you're in for a treat. I can suggest the minimally seasoned scallops. I've never had egg whites in a drink so I ordered a "Cats Got Your Tongue"...mmm
allen
Great big open area prefect for this being outdoor. We were there in time for happy hour and gotbthe charcuterie board and the Buffalo cauliflower which were amazing. For entree I got the chefs feature burger which did not disappoint, it was humongous, didn't finish it bc it was big, 8oz burger, fried Mac n cheese and I added a fried egg on it. The Mac and cheese shareable was delicious!! So many other options on the menu. Definitely will be back.
Daysha Rose
I really love the look of this place. Very inviting and homely. It not a huge place but it does have outdoor seating. I ordered a ton of things and overall the food was ok 7 out of 10. Somethings were over cooked but still tasteful. The mixed drinks were so tasty but not buzz worthy. I will definitely visit The C House again, I enjoyed myself
Luis Perez
Like the restaurant, food is good my only thing with the restaurant is, the parking used to be free now they charge you 5 bucks for it (agree is not that much) but it used to be free, plus the whole parking lot was full because everything is valet, or find a place to park outside.
I know it sound cheap but its the principle, love the food though
Tyler Kline
I have to admit - I was initially skeptical of C House, simply based on the premise (seemed a little silly to me) - but we have consistently had really great experiences eating here. The buffalo cauliflower app is AMAZING. We always go for the happy hour and piece together shareable from there. You can’t go wrong. Service has also always been great, and the place is clean, inside and out. My only real caveat is that the menu seems a little limited to me - I don’t get too excited by it, but everything I’ve had has been real good.
Ana Holguin
I loved the atmosphere, excellent customer service, the food was really good. I will definitely be back. There is only valet parking, you can't park at the location, and you can't find any spots so no matter what you need to use valet.
Rh
My husband and I enjoyed a really nice and romantic dinner here. We went on a Thursday and arrived around 4:30, parking was still available. I called ahead and made a reservation, requesting inside seating. We ordered the chefs board, which was delicious! We also ordered the Poutine and Carne Asada street tacos to share. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. We ended the night with a flight of cheesecake. My husband has always claimed he didn't like cheesecake, but he ate more than me! We also got a cupcake and chocolate chip cookie to go. That may have been the best cookie I ever had. Over all we had a great time and I would recommend going. By the time we were leaving, all of the parking was filled and most of the tables were already taken. I would definitely recommend calling for a reservation, and going earlier rather than later if you aren't sure where to find parking elsewhere.
Robert Cocke
Service was kinda slow and our order was messed up. But the food was delicious. Nice staff. We loved the outside live music. We will definitely be back!
TJ Loup
Fantastic food and atmosphere! We sat outside at the bar where there was live music that wasn't overly loud that you couldn't talk. Will absolutely revisit when back in town.
Russell Wild
The food and atmosphere was amazing! When we got there it was raining pretty bad but they still had tables open outside so we got to drink and eat with the sound of the rain and the live music. It set the mood just right for our wedding anniversary. Finally if you can get Kirsten as a server you will be on the best of hands, she was not only super educated of the menu as well as pairings but her personality and way she treats customers is so warm and inviting. We will definitely be coming back thanks to her. And if you ever read this kirsten tha ks for making our wedding anniversary special when you didnt need to. It meant alot to us. Bye the game Othello you will get obsessed.
David Krantzberg
I get valet due to the small parking lot, however, when you are charging to park with a lot of open spaces at 3:00 in the afternoon - you are just being greedy. Last time here.
D. Auri.
Great service and food. Trendy spot with a great ambience both inside and out. Good addition to SH but would drive to go here even if you live afar!
Addition. First review (above) was three years ago. Been a few times since. Went tonight. Equally as good! Don't let parking deter you. We parked on street somewhere nearby. Bella was a great server, manager was a real charm, and other staff very nice too. Although it rained and sitting outside, nice ambiance and they cleaned up nicely. Live music was nice. Really like C House. 7/22/22.
Janet Pacheco Hodges
Whether you sit inside our outside the atmosphere is pleasant. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Love the names of the tasty spirits!
Jason Davis
The Buffalo cauliflower was delicious and the chicken gnocchi was very good although the actual amount of gnocchi was a little on the small side.
I got the blueberry lavender mojito and it was the perfect balance flavor and sweetness without being overly sweet.
Services very good with solid recommendations.
Amy Emerson
Love everything about this place!! outdoor patio is a great place to bring your dog and relax to live music. Service is amazing, craft cocktails are beautiful and tasty! Definitely a top place for charcuterie boards & happy hour deals on food and drink. Hands down the best cheesecake I've ever had. Recommend calling ahead to make reservations as they are always pretty full.
Blake Propst
The food was good. Service was fantastic and very attentive. The fans blowing on high when its only 70 degrees made it a little chilly sitting outside.
Yaroslav Dolzhenko
Good ambiance. Good service. Food - mediocre at best. One of those places that become fashionable thanks to clever advertising and stay so for a while.
Brooke Boyd
My husband and I came after a day at Lowry Zoo. All I can say is wow. I haven't had food that good in a long time. We had the crab cakes and steak tacos and they were phenomenal. I think I said wow after every bite I took. Our server named Ana(I think) was very attentive and nice. They had a woman singing shortly after we came and we ending up hanging out a but because we liked the place so much. We will definitely be back next time we are in Tampa. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
Dayana Marinucci
Excellent food, highly recommended, the place is very nice and cozy. Owner was there with kids and everything and that made me feel like at home, they were making sure everything runs to perfection. We normally don't get satisfied when eating out because we find american food too plain, lack of flavor and just ordinary, but this place is really tasty and looks like everything is made from scratch. Can wait to come back and try the cauliflower.
Steve Aycock
The food is excellent and the servers and bar tenders were friendly and fast. The charcuterie board we had was delicious. We also had a caprese salad that was amazing. All of the drinks we tried were great. Andrew Ricker was playing outside and was the perfect musical accompaniment to the food and drinks. All around a very nice afternoon.
Corinne Dennis
Perfect takeaway meal! Even though DoorDash was being a pain and had to order direct, I had a great Easter meal (chef’s selection of a wedge salad, chimichurri steak frites and I couldn’t decide on which dessert so I got both!). The cookie had giant chips and sea salt on top, the cupcake today was carrot cake (fitting for Easter 🐰😬).
Thank you to the service staff and chefs that are still hard at work to safely serve locals amazing food through these crazy times. 🙏 (I was able to drive up, stay in my car...food was delivered by an employee with gloves).

Food was good, but service could be better. The aesthetic is nice and Joanna Gaines-y. I ordered the Chicken Euphoria, and it was delicious. Although the restaurant wasn’t very busy and the servers/bartenders were nice, our server didn’t check on our table very much and took quite a while to gather our checks.
Kristen Ayala
Loved everything! Charcuterie is definitely their specialty, beautiful presentation of tasty items. Every plate ordered at our table was delicious and large portions. Only complaint, and it's a very specific personal preference, is they don't have horseradish for their bloody Mary's.
Lauren Lusignan
The staff were welcoming, delightful, and the food was delicious and presented beautifully. The charcuterie board and the steak sandwich are my recommendations!
Megan
This restaurant was a great find and perfect for a date night! The atmosphere is very hip and trendy. Our food was delicious and tasted fresh to order. We dined out on the porch as we had our dog with us and the wait staff was very accommodating. The prices were a little much, but overall not bad for what you get. I would recommend to anyone in the area looking for something new!
Jhuglenyz Torres
One of The best restaurant in Tampa, I liked the food , good customer services and I had a good time listening live music .
Henry Young
Experienced a Holiday treat, taken to C House by one of my young neighbors here in Seminole Heights. What a fun spot to meet her visiting mom and dad and discoverer fabulous fish tacos.
Danielle H
I love it here!
I drop by often for cocktails with friends or dinner dates. The charcuterie boards are the best thing on the menu the selection of cheese is amazing. I sat in the new outside deck by the parking lot and I found it a great place to catch up with friends over Veuve.

One of the best brunches in Tampa. Great outdoor area with live music for Sunday brunch.
B B
Great atmosphere and concept. Food was good. Table service was fine, but the food took forever. 2 dishes came out 15 minutes before 3 of our other guests, and then 1 more anther 15 minutes later after that. They were not crazy busy, and we never really got an explanation why.
Anyway, the jerk chicken is more of a pasta dish than a chicken dish. Not very spicy but had decent flavors and was cooked well.
Chimichurri steak was cooked great.. Fish dishes were nice, as well.
Light on good quality beer on tap. Creative cocktail list.
Overall good place except for the odd timing of the dishes that came out.
Roseanne Hershberger
Food was unique and healthy not to mention DELICIOUS!
Restaurant was hopping during lunch on Friday. Look forward to visiting again.
abby clarke
Went for dinner and everythinggggg was super delicious and timely. Our server Ron was amazing...and the cheese cake he recommended was to die for
Katherine England
I have gone here several times for all different types of occasions, and the experience has always been great. I like to bring out of town visitors here to show off a Tampa local spot with an expansive menu. The chicken sandwich is one of my favorites. I definitely recommend this place.
Carol Tran
Delicious charcuterie and wine/champagne. We also love the ambience of the entire restaurant. Only reason that I am giving it a 4 star review instead of 5 stars is 3 out of 6 people in our group ordered the gnocchi and were unable to finish it. The gnocchi was too salty and the chicken was dry. Previously everyone loved the dish. When this was mentored to the waitress, it was not acknowledged. Will most likely return to the restaurant for appetizers and drinks, but most likely not for dinner. Would still recommend trying out!
Jake Goldberg
The service was great, the food was delicious, and the prices were good too!
My wife and I ordered a charcuterie board, Buffalo cauliflower bites, and fresh tuna to share.
Out of these items, the cauliflower bites was the best thing, I honestly wonder if I will ever eat cauliflower bites again that are as delicately balanced as these, they were firm without being to hard, crunchy without being burnt, enough sauce that it wasn't overpowering or dry on the other hand. I wish I could eat them everyday!
My only negative was the chocolate chip cookie, it was one of the worst I've ever eaten. It was doughy more like a muffin and extremely dry, but since it was a special occasion they gave it to us for free so I guess it didn't matter anyway lol.
Everything else was great and I would definitely come here again.
Nicole Barnes
Very nice experience. You would never ever know you are close to a busy street because its secluded. Bar tenders were great!
Sinduri Vuppala
Gnocchi was yummy, mojito was refreshing. Also had a chocolate chunk and caramel cheesecake, portion was huge but was okayish.
Andrew Vincent
Extremely satisfied! The food was great and the service was top notch.
I would highly recommend this place.
B
Quaint place. Stopped here for some takeout pastries. We decided to take home the chocolate chip cookies.
The chocolate in the cookies looked more like strips of chocolate bars and not chips which gives it a more gourmet appeal. . Very tasty cookies but maybe a bit salty perhaps? Out of 6 cookies three were possibly not fully cooked and had doughy areas to them For $3 a cookie they were pretty big and seemingly not made with cheap chocolate or other ingredients.
We did not eat dinner here. Looks like a nice atmosphere to eat but I did not inspect the menu. A few televisions outside showed some sports.
The staff we encountered was very friendly.
A G
Best charcuterie boards!!!!! We had a wonderful lunch. Great service, excellent food and live music. Thank you!!
Alexxus Berthoty
It's a Johanna Gaines restaurant in the Heights! Great food selection and fun live music. A little pricey, but there are some budget-friendly options on the menu. Will most definitely return.
Russel Weich
The menu is creative and staff is friendly. Stop in and have a cheeseburger n a old fashioned. You won’t be disappointed!
Chris
Great place, charcuterie... Nailed it. Main dishes seemed a little bit smaller. Definitely well worth the visit and I look forward to my next visit. Parking is horrendous, but that's no different from anything in the area.
Heather Hodges
The drinks are creative and delightful. The food is a little more classy and very tasty yet the prices are fair. Definitely try the charcuterie board or the cauliflower buffalo bites, you wont be disappointed! They have a different menu to choose from every few hours on Sundays.
Robert garcia
The food and service were both great. I didn't like the forced $6 valet parking especially being it was on a 20ft walk from the parking spot to the restaurant and only a 10 foot difference from the valet to the parking spots. I could have walked to my vehicle and left quicker than waiting on the valet.
Tony Pierce
Try the poutine! What's great about this place is the responsive ownership and the attention to items that make you comfortable. For instance lots of fans on the patio and lots of heaters for when it's cold. The bar staff on this visit were also sweet and provided great service.
Isabella DiGregorio
Great atmosphere and server, the gnocchi carbonara and charcuterie board were amazing. We were there for a friend's birthday dinner and had a wonderful experience.
Donna Jacobs
It was great. The service, food, drinks and atmosphere were all awesome. The meat and cheese board was top notch, coming with a ton of accoutrements. My drink, the Controlled Airspace, was balanced and very good. The bartender was very knowledgeable and she helped out a ton. Will definitely be back. Probably for brunch!
Lena N
This place is an absolute gem in Tampa! The food was amazing from the appetizers to the dessert. Kayla waited on us and she was excellent, very prompt and gave great recommendations!
Sparkle
First time really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food and drinks were delicious. I will return..
Mathew Boyd
Great food great atmosphere. The charcuterie boards are very well appointed. Crab cakes were fresh. Carne tacos were to die for.
Jeannie Wenzlaff
Disappointed:-(
I heard how great this place was so we decided to have dinner there Friday night.
PROS- Friendly hostess; great out door seating, dog friendly (a big plus), clean tables & surroundings area, not too noisy (so I don't have to yell when talking) and Great chocolate cheesecake, Crabcakes, coleslaw and Ceasar Salad!
CONS- If you order a Crown & Coke, tell them NOT to use crushed ice (it just waters it down and she still charged me for it); Mac & Cheese had hair in it (blonde hair that may have fallen in food while being dished out), French fries taste as if previously frozen and cod fish was so heavily battered that I included photos(leftover from my meal.)
It was more batter than fish and soggy.
I ALMOST FORGOT, Our bill was $94 (only 2 alcoholic drinks ordered - only consumed less then 1/5 of 1st drink.)
Overall, I didn't feel the food/service justifies a $94 bill/$117 with tip.
Amy Kellison
Pleasant dining experience! There was live music outside on a Thursday night (the guy was great) and the service was prompt. The tacos were a definite hit followed by a decent Cobb Salad.
Alliyah Williams
me and my fiancé just finished eating here for the first time and I must say everything was amazing and also the customer service is awesome we will definitely be returning back to have another amazing lunch thank you C house

So put all the negative ones before mine into the trash. This is your typical “growing pains” scenario and all those bad reviews are definitely circumstantial.
What I’m going to do is highlight the positives and leave room to come back and speak on the negatives if they don’t get addressed. I won’t point them out though.
Pros
- Bubbles: splits of sparkling rosé and cava at a ridiculously competitive Happy Hour price. No brainer.
- Coffee/espresso bar - to complement the decent wine selection. Show me anyone that can drink 2 glasses of Bordeaux or anything bubbles and walk straight and I’ll certify that you’re a liar. This just works. Have some good juice and then caffeinate before leaving. No brainer #2.
- The owner made the effort to come and check on me, not once, but twice. A big deal to me around here especially since the customer experience is not a huge emphasis for most new places now. They just think they can ride the coattails of a good wine list or menu. SMDH.
- Ambiance: Works for Seminole Heights, grungy, blue collar, farmhouse vibe. I like it. Reminds me of a number of places in Tampa, but why reinvent the wheel? It works. Great job transforming a former muffler shop. Wasn’t hot at all at 5PM and noice level was barely tolerable.
Overall
Good first experience. I’ll update on visits 2 and 3 and will just let his place grow into the identity it chooses. Plenty of potential. Give it a try at least once.
P.S. I had chicken wings - fully cooked, good flavor, blue cheese was not some cheap private label. Phew!
...to be continued
Janelle Vann
Lawrence may be the best bartender in Tampa Bay! Great night listening to live music and enjoying some great food and drinks!
Gloria Figueroa
The C House restaurant had a relaxed and airy ambiance. It was late in the evening and service and food were excellent. The burgers were very well seasoned and tasty. Highly reccomend this spot.
LaToya Johnson
The food is so delish, I loved the lump crab cakes the best and the buffalo cauliflower.
Philip Tully (Phil)
The food was fantastic. But they ran out of regular coffee during brunch. How?
Ann Sloan
I had a brunch for my birthday with 16 guests. The manager was very helpful with accommodating our party. They were over booked but he made sure we had a spot inside. It was very comfortable and everyone had a great time. Even with minor issues regarding the food, our server Michael was phenomenal and made sure we were all happy and having a great time. All the girls loved Michael and he really helped smooth everything over. I would definitely recommend asking for him for your next large party ❤️
Kenetta Fleming
Great food, service and atmosphere.
Our waiter Brandon was very knowledgeable. He gave good meal suggestions he even knew all of the amazing cheesecake flavors by memory. I chose his favorite which was the chocolate and it was so so so good. The chicken and waffles selected from the brunch menu did not disappoint. That dipping sauce was on my mind for a long time after leaving lol. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Kate Grantham
I always wanted to try this little spot and today was the day! It was fabulous. The service was spot on, we had a nice outside table and the food was amazing. I tried their signature burger and it was a true home run. The manager (maybe owner) even stopped by to see how we were doing. It was a great experience and I cant wait to bring back friends.
Brandi Ramos
We had a charcuterie board that was delicious! The cauliflower buffalo bites were great, too. Save room for dessert though! Wow!
Laura Fisher
I wish I had come here earlier! Everything we had was fantastic. My son loves burgers and I cant wait until we bring him next time so he can try the chef's burger. Carbanara gnocchi was excellent as well.
Gina Magsombol
Great place for happy hour, patio with the pup! Service is top notch, cocktails were refreshing and location can't be beat. We had the Buffalo Cauliflower, Buffalo Pamresan Wings and the chicken euphoria sandwich. All great snacks, excellent cocktails in a quaint neighborhood.
Peter Parker
Unsure how anyone else rated "The C House" less than 4 stars. From the ambiance to the service to the food, our experience tonight was outstanding. To find a couple of menu items done well is a treat. Here, everything from the first appetizer, cauliflower, all the way to desert, was phenomenal. We judge a restaurant by whether, while dining, would we return and, if so, for which dish. There were so many delicious foods, we could come back every day for a couple of weeks. Compliments to the kitchen, bar, and servers.
Google Userr
So I’m not sure if it’s because our table arrived closer to closing time, but we didn’t have the best experience at this restaurant. The environment was beautiful, but the food was not the best. The sangria did not taste right, our order of fish tacos were not fully cooked, the mozzarella in my caprese salad was not freshest and the charcuterie for the price was not worth it. Our waiter was awesome and tried to make things right, but the kitchen really needs work. The manager was super understanding and also came by our table to say that she was new and working on turning the place around in the way of food service.
I will maybe try this again in the future, but not anytime soon.
heather bishop
What a great place!! Craft cocktails, wonderful service, beautiful outdoor seating and great charcuterie!! Food was delivered in timely fashion, facility was very clean, fresh eats and delicious drinks! We (hubs and I) sat outside at the bar and watched how meticulously the outside area ran, thanks to the gentleman bartender (taller, well spoken, experienced and told us about his gf who's from Michigan) whom I forgot his name! He kept other staff accountable and efficient, was entertaining, attentive, kind and made us great drinks!
Ryan Scoglietti
The place was amazing, clean , decor , and staff. From the very beginning the host got us in right away even though we didn’t have a reservation ( rookie mistake ). The server we had was beyond fabulous her name was Allison B. She was very helpful with the menu and overall very knowledgeable. She had the greatest personality and I run a restaurant and if I could clone her 10x I would do that in a heartbeat
Tamara Bowen
We had a good time except we had made reservations for 13 and were told we would be able and therefore expected to sit together. When we got there, we had two separate tables which wasn't what we wanted so we found chairs and squished into the 1 table. None of the staff tried to help with the shuffling or tried other accommodations for our party which was disheartening and soon after another party got up and they could have easily made some adjustments so we would be more comfortable.
Jeremy Gallman
Drinks and service were great! The restaurant inside and out was spotless and clean. My dish was a little underwhelming for the price, at $16 for a small waffle and two smaller pieces of fried chicken. My husband had poached egg Benedict that were over cooked and not runny. We will definitely go back, just not for their brunch.
Brandon Breedwell
So we've been here several times and we've always enjoyed the food. Service has always been good, but tonight was beyond what we would expect. Our waitress Jessica was attentive, and the management went above and beyond for a miscommunication we didn't even complain about!
Jennifer Martin
Delicious charcuterie board, wonderful drinks but the cookie with Nutella, not so good, which is why the 4 star. They were absolutely wonderful and didn't charge us but I like to tell people how they can do better. Wait staff was amazing as well. Don't think the cookie will not have us coming back!
Mandy Lewis-Jourdain
Would definitely go back! Such amazing food and drinks with a very nice atmosphere and great service!
Lianne MK
Some of the best buffalo cauliflower ever! I am a meat eater and forgot for a moment I wasn't eating boneless buffalo bites!
Rich R
First time, great Sunday brunch, friendly staff, steel drum music... very nice.
Elke Dennis
Small menu. Not sure what the hype is about in this place...been there twice and two times i was very underwhelmed. Mediocre food at best that is completely overpriced. Service however is great, no complaints.
Jeff Williams (RookyJ)
Not a particularly good experience today. They have several really good things going on…..but they have a bunch of genuine issues too. Some I don’t even want to mention here. Some issues they seemingly would rather not even know about. While I tipped 100% on the tab, it’s too expensive to be willing to deal with all the bugs and flies at the indoor bar. Outside its 3 male bartenders standing around talking to each other rather than tending to their customers. The drinks were awful unless you want to drink something that tastes entirely like sucking on a lime. Music was good, atmosphere is good, food is excellent, service is pretty average at best….hard to recommend right now unless its for food and music.
Juan Carlos Maple
Ambiance is a 9, charcuterie board was an 8.5, Chef's burger was a 6, lobster roll was an 8. Overall I would recommend the place.
stef
Excellent and attentive staff. Good service can be hard to find, but not here! All the staff were friendly and service oriented. The food was outstanding. An overall great experience, highly recommended.
David Lubin
Great outdoor dining. Service very good. Happy hour drink prices. Candoni pinot noir--great Italian wine! Just be careful parking on the street so you don't get towed.
L A F Berry
Excellent meal. I enjoyed the outdoor seating and of course the food was really good.
Clarence Ridley
The C Restaurant is in a surprising location, I almost missed it during my navigational drive. However, once I turned around, I found a very eclectic place.
I ordered the cheeseburger and fries. The cheeseburger was one of the best burgers I ever had and the fries were hot and tasty.
This is a must place to visit and dine.
Michelle Maynard
Such great atmosphere and amazing food. All of the staff was super friendly !!!
Rayyan Sokkarie
Great experience! The food was delicious. There was a delay in one of the orders and the manager was very sweet about it and comped it. They clearly care about their customers and want them to enjoy their time here. Excellent customer service and even better food. Can’t wait to come back soon.
Jason Krajewski
Food was good and above average especially for the area. The service was mostly adequate, I needed to go up to the bar to refill my beverage. Also we attempted to get a normal table which we saw was empty and clean although it was "reserved" and it stayed empty and clean the the entire time we were there. We may try again hopefully with better results.
Madison Klemick
I went for brunch for my friends birthday with a large group of ladies, and Michael was absolutely amazing, he took the best care of all of us and made sure we had the best time. He was so sweet, attentive and accommodating. He made us all laugh the entire time, I would come back just for him!
Kris Mortensen
Awesome drinks, outdoor seating, good food and live music! Staff was friendly but periodically absent, but the rest made up for it. Definitely recommended!
Dominique Giza
This place is so cute! We came in tonight not realizing we hit happy hour. Great options! We got the charcuterie board and a salad to split, an old fashioned and HH wine, the tacos and roll… holy cow, everything was PERFECT. The food and service are 10/10. The atmosphere is totally relaxed, they even had Tony Tyler playing music on the patio. They are dog friendly so we will be bringing our boy back to the patio the next time we come here. Our servers name was Sam and she was wonderful! We can’t say enough good things about her, she’s so sweet.
Michael Mather (Realtor)
Food was amazing and portions were huge
Chicken euphoria was delicious and a meal and a half
Mary Jones
Happy B'day Girl🎉 First time visit to CHouse today for my birthday luncheon with one of my sister's. Great time! Meals were Ch. Burger with side roasted avocado 😋
Fish tacos with side salad. Opt out FF. Complimentary cupcake takeout.
Server Mike, Host Krissy- Awesome & Awesome 🤩🤩 Thank you!!
Tracie J
First time eating here and everything was delicious! Definitely recommend!
Adam Herbst
Good spot, limited indoor seating. We sat at the bar outside which was nice with great service. It was a 90 degree day (felt like 97) and it was still OK to sit outside with all the fans and coverage. I would not recommend this during the summer.
The Food: This was very good. I would say above average Tampa food but nothing extremely special (we only got a charcuterie board and the chicken euphoria sandwich).
Drinks: Drinks are varied and good. The prices are reasonable and similar to other Tampa spots.
Ricardo Munoz
Great and attentive customer service and great food, we got lucky enough to have a live singer that day so that was a plus.
John Lake
Trendy neighborhood spot for great wine, cocktails and food. We popped in and were lucky to get a spot outside. Reservations are recommended. We did not have one but someone had just left and we got their spot. We had the chicken sandwich and the gnocchi. We both couldn't get over how good the gnocchi was. These were not the heavy gummy gnocchi you find in most Italian restaurants, these were little pillows of wonder. They were light and held the cream sauce so well. We honestly can't wait to go back and try more. 2 drinks and two entrees were a modest $60. plus tip. Great job!
Amber McWhorter
Delicious food, drinks, and great staff! Will be back!
J K
What a pleasant experience we had here last night! We tried the Buffalo cauliflower, poutine, and regular cheeseburger. All the food was delicious (large portions!!) and every staff member was friendly, including our server. We will absolutely be back!!
Jessica Boulton
One of my favorite nice chill restaurants in Tampa. Great food and beverage selection that they are very clever/creative with naming. The outside seating is covered (and has heaters if necessary), and sometimes they have live music! The whole place is ground level, so it's pretty accessible. I only have good memories of visits here!
Caroline Recio
I had such high hopes for this place in the beginning. The drinks are amazing and I loved the charcuterie board. Unfortunately the service was really lacking, our waiter would leave us for 45 minutes at a time. We asked for a new knife which was never delivered. And the chicken sandwich was incredibly bland. I love the ambiance of this place, the outdoor seating, and the live music. I just wish my entree and the service were better!
Nigel M
Great food and vibe. Would highly recommend. We got a 5 piece charcuterie that was great and for dessert the oreo cheesecake was everything. Live music was a nice touch
Nestor Vera
Great priced wines….. food is not bad, but on this specific day, everything from apps to entrees, was sandbagged.
stephanie thomas
Loved the charcuterie board choices, mimosas and service! Recommended for sure
Kevin Crandall
Absolutely awesome environment. Food and drinks were amazing.
Justin Pinelli
EXCELLENT ATMOSPHERE. Beautiful inside as well. Great unique drinks, food was outstanding and plentiful
Cameron A
This place is a vibe. Living in Seminole Heights this is one of our go-to's! It's a bit pricy but their charcuterie boards are amazing and their burgers are great too! Perfect amount of food for two people.
Paul
Good food, slightly expensive but a nice place to relax and get dinner.
Nataly India
Nice indoor and outdoor setting. We ordered the Cheese n Mac and the fries without the Canadian. The food was good.
Been a bunch of times since then get their cheese plates. Changed my review from 4 to 5 stars, live music and drinks are great too.
Roxanna Gandia
Everyone was very nice. Service quick. Food delicious!
Kori Whitley
Extremely attentive and friendly service! I will most definitely be back! I got the biscuits and gravy and it was delicious!
Eric Odum
Love the outside area. Great drink options, but don't come here looking for food if you're a vegan. Not one single sandwich or entree option. You get a sample of cut veggies and French fries...
That's it. You'd think such a hip place would be more in tune with the fastest growing food movement in the country.... Great for drinks, though
Roxanne Mestre
Great food and atmosphere! Had a good time with my girlfriends
MaryAnna Invergo
Incredible, to die for food. As well as great service. Everything about this place is perfect
Kathy St
Loved the charcuterie board with great wine selection. Scallops were great and the guys left no trace of the burgers.
Christine T
Great spot for champagne music and awesome charcuterie boards. Awesome find!!!
Amadea Toberer
The hot dishes were all over the place with the flavor profile, no clear direction with many of them. The charcuterie board was nice, although for a place specializing in same, the ham was unnecessarily clumped together, and the two of the the three cheeses were cut so thinly, that they immediately began sweating and subsequently drying out in the outdoor fans.
The fries seemed to have suffered a similar fate as the Serrano, namely a lumpy, clumpy ball on the plate.
(Pssst: Have you tired cooling between poaching a frying the fries?)
Service was okay, I know these days smiles and the pretense of wanting to be there cost extra.
The guy with the guitar.. should have stuck to mime work.
Saturday afternoon, the true highlight was when suddenly several hordes of young women with pierced, protruding nipples started swarming the place.
C house... I get it now.
Augoustis Zampetas
The menu options are excellent. The live music was great as well.
Tawni LeAnne
It was so amazing to come across this place. We were staying for a night from Orlando and it was definitely a blessing to stop here. The atmosphere, the craft cocktails, the food and the at home service, I'm blown away. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed this unique and great experience.
I absolutely will recommend and will definitely be coming back soon to see Kay our bartender and Josh the amazing musician.
Rich Schmid
I give 4 stars for the food, and 2 stars for the rest = 3 stars overall.
Swordfish/risotto was amazing, as was the burger and Caesar salad. My 4-year old didn't like his mac 'n cheese, however, and he'll always eat that.
When our food arrived, we were also swarmed by flies, and had to eat with one hand, while swatting them away with the other. It made the experience very difficult to enjoy.
Secondly the service was pretty slow. I felt like I was always looking for our server to order new drinks, or even just to place our meal order.
Chance of returning, 15-20%.
Thomas Pilla
Very busy at this time. Seated at bar with intention of cheesecake and champagne at a minimum, but was served frozen cheesecake. Had better experiences here before.
Christopher J. Harris
Hello!
First, our server Kirsten was great! EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the menu and options and was VERY responsive to our questions.
The food was served fairly quickly. My wife had a hair in her plate and they quickly fixed it!
The portion sizes were good and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. We all had a “sample” idea. We had the veggie burger, wings, Mac and Cheese, Harvest salad, crab cakes, lamb pops and steak. The salted caramel cheesecake was amazing!
When we left, I noticed something. Several of the wait staff was on the patio setting table settings for what I assume to be the next day (wrapping the forks and knives in the towels.)
What was disappointing to see was that several of them went to pet a dog (a visiting friend that was there) and immediately went back to folding the cloth Napkins and Forks/Knives.
I brought it to the attention of my server and the Manager on Duty. They agreed with my sentiment. Unfortunately, nothing was done to change what was happening. We stood outside for about 20 minutes and watched the staff continue to make the table settings and even in a sense look at our party as if we were weird for saying something.
I think we need to acknowledge that pets are pets and we should wash our hands before we engage in eating utensils. Secondly, I think we have to acknowledge that not everyone is a “dog lover”. Finally, another member of our party pointed out that there was another dog under the table in which they were preparing the table settings.
This part of the night left a bad taste in otherwise good experience.
Gerry Williams
The C House is simply a wonderful place to dine-in and listen to great live music! The staff is stellar and seem to be hand-picked by the owners/managers (Who really care about the customers) from the bartenders to the chefs to the waitresses and waiters to the hostesses. They all are so polite And attentive☀️ The inside is perfect for a romantic date with your significant other. The outside is a place where you can bring friends to hang and chat and watch sports 🏈 And or listen to great music 🎶. The food is superb👌🏾
Bari Magnetta
Found this amazing spot while on biz in Brandon and I am so glad I did! The host sat me without my complete party, which was nice. I had a wonderful server, Claudia, and she recommended a sparkling wine after I told her my tastes. Delicious choice! I had the Carbonara Gnocchi which was OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOD! The ricotta gnocchi were little pillows of fluffy goodness and the sauce was so flavorful. I'm wanting to get it again right now! DO NOT miss the lemon blueberry cheesecake... holy wow! Anytime I am back in the area, The C House will have my business. Thanks for a great night!
Amie E
Great atmosphere on the patio, live music a nice touch and not too loud for conversation. For the most part, the cocktails are good but sometimes a bit watered. Nice selection of wine. Cheese selection is good, can't really miss. We have not been impressed by the food though. The crab cakes have quality lump crab meat, but, for me, the flavor was overwhelmed by the seasonings and sauce. Also, they were dry and overdone. Could have been an off night but I wouldn't try them again. The Caesar salad is fantastic. Desserts are all delicious and portions are huge, you can easily split. Overall, it's a nice place to chill out and have some wine and cheese or get dessert after dinner.
Elizabeth Borrell
Captures the "Seminole Heights" energy beautifully. Been here several times already and chosen something new to eat each time. Never been disappointed. Cocktails are amazing. Staff is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and just genuinely nice.
Chuck Connell
The food tasted good enough, but the Crustacean roll was literally 3 small shrimp and maybe 4 tiny pieces of crawfish on a heaping bed of shredded iceberg. Altogether very dry as well, but I prefer that to the alternative of swimming in mayonnaise, $16.00.
Not sure it's worth a second visit other than you've been everywhere else. Service was decent. Would have been much happier at Mekenita or Rooster and Till had they been open.
Loren Michelle Rayburn
Best espresso martini in Tampa. Charcuterie is okay.
Chris Brownell
Great vibe, great food and top notch service! Thoroughly enjoyed our experience...we had a party of 9 and the bar staff prior to seating was great and our server Sara was outstanding. If you are looking for something past run of the mill The C House brings and awesome vibe, great staff and amazing food.
Jonathan Goodman
Over a year ago, my wife and I took my parents to C House when they were visiting. It was new, looked charming and sounded delicious, and I thought we'd take a chance on it for some dessert and wine after dinner elsewhere, despite some shaky reviews of the service. Instantaneously, it was obvious why the reviews of a place that seemed so appealing were less than stellar: within minutes of arriving, the incredible disorganization was apparent in easily a half dozen ways.
But, restaurants fumble at the beginning and deserve second chances. Fast forward to this past weekend, my parents were visiting again and we decided to give it a try for brunch. We were seated immediately, attended to by a very friendly and helpful waiter, and ordered the "breakfast feast," which is essentially a family-style brunch plate for 4-5 people with waffles, fruit, bacon, eggs, biscuits, gravy, various jams, and fried chicken. It arrived quickly, was presented *beautifully*, and every single thing on the plate was "best in class," which is hard to pull off when every item is a staple food.
The coffee was also noticeably excellent, and topped off at timely intervals. Our waiter even went back and got us some of the beans because we'd asked about where the coffee came from. All in our party agreed it was easily the best breakfast we've had in a long time. On top of all that, a really great ambiance that works for any time of day. Kudos to this great restaurant for turning it around 180 degrees after a rocky start!
Kevin Vellanki
Great atmosphere and very friendly bartenders and waiters. Food was excellent, the cheeseburger and fries were super flavorful and the burger itself was cooked to perfection. Juicy, tender, and very textured. Mom had a salad and crab cakes, which she also said were great. Highly recommend this place for a nice meal at a reasonable price.
Craig Finkner
Great place to get a fantastic meal. Went there with some co-workers and we were delighted by the food. Service was also top-notch.
Jeff Walz
Great relaxed "Napa California" vibe. Food is very good and great prices for quality and quantity. Nice mix of craft cocktails.
Shane Howard
The food was really good. We had most of the shareables and enjoyed. When you go there, try to get Kent as your waiter. He was great.
Jay Noetic (Thejaynoetic)
Very beautiful farm to house interior decor. I ordered the wing's (not pictured) and the lobster roll which I thought would be better warm. The portion sides are fulfilling and I'll surely go back to try something different.
Julius Pereira
Nice casual dining outdoors with good food. Will be returning and bringing more people to share in experiencing the delightful restaurant and bar
Haley Hlavaty
Fantastic outdoor locations. Amazing cocktails and cheese/meat boards. Perfrxt happy hour location. Parking is tricky.. My husband got the lobster roll, which was good but the bread seemed old. I got the carbonara gnocchi which was very good but too much salt and pepper. Their cheesecakes are ricotta based. Definitely worth trying. The caramel one had a very hard chocolate chip bottom you couldn't eat. We will definitely try this place out again
Michael Pool
Certifiably choice chow. Can’t complain.
Leah James
Tried this out on a recent trip to Tampa and absolutely loved the food here. The outdoor seating area was super relaxing and inviting as well. Will definitely return when in the area again in the future.
michael nolan
Staff and food are well above any expectations. The outdoor seating is perfect for Tampa weather. Craft cocktails are very well done.
Eric Dalgleish
Food was excellent and staff very friendly. The manager was very nice and did a excellent job. When in the area I will definitely becoming back thanks again for the excellent food and service
Amy Galla1123
Was my 1st time at The C House this evening. Food was fantastic! My party of 4 each enjoyed our entrees and the two apps we had (definitely order the charcuterie board!) The cocktails were okay, not worth the price, should have just ordered beer or wine. The only drawback of the evening was the waiter. Very uncharismatic and just....blah. Wasn't very helpful when we were deciding what to order, forgetful of items we requested (didn't bring them until we were almost done eating), and just not personable at all. Atmosphere was nice as was the live music. Will try again, hopefully with a different waiter.
Luke Garza
Steak and Eggs are the best thing there. It’s so good for travelers.
Shawn OHare
Good food, good service, good ambience
Definitely would come back
Nate G
Menu needs a little help. If you like loud live music then this is your spot!
Lots of charcuterie options and solid cocktails. Great outdoor seating area, limited parking.
Charlotte Vandaveer
Nice outdoor area for dining. Good food, big portions, attentive wait staff
Kate Miller
Love the patio ambiance and live music was fantastic!!! Food was yummy, portions were small for price point. Staff was great!
Mike Ganance
Went here for my birthday, and had a good experience. The buffalo cauliflower appetizer was super tasty. The burger that I ordered was perfect and very very tasty. I would for sure go back in the future.
Wendy Simpson
The bartender Sergio made amazing whiskey sours for me! He chose the perfect rye whiskey for me (at my request) with fresh lemon and lime juice and finished it off with a splash of Angostura bitters in the egg white foam. Sergio is a pro!
Ryan Hylton
Service was excellent,atmosphere was great. Not sure of the young ladys name that served us however she was very attentive. Food was excellent however I did not care for the fries,burger,chicken sandwich,chicken wings, cappuccino and the red velvet cup cake was to die for Yum yum yum.
Amanda Reid
Good food, though some selections better than others. Pleasant and efficient wait staff. Decent happy hour. Loved the veggie burger-very tasty and not dry. Cocktail had a great flavor, but didn't seem to have much liquor. Good addition to the neighborhood, not perfect but worth a visit.
Somarie Rolon
Was beyond and surprised, amazing place so cozy and humble the waitress Gracie was so kind, the music and the place overall are so good you have to come with your whole family from child to old we definitely are coming back soon with friends and family.
YS
Good food. Cool atmosphere and rustic modern feel.
Liz A
We had the fried chicken and waffles, the chicken euphoria and fries, and I had a biscuit on the side. All the food was very delicious, except for the biscuit (which was rock hard and dry and had zero flavor). During Sunday brunch they had live music, which was nice.
Caroline Collins
This place is awesome. I love the concept (my name starting with a C and all!) and it's fun to see how they creatively twist dishes and drinks to match the theme. Beyond that, everything was delicious - it's not just a gimmick! They had wonderful cocktails and we ordered off the happy hour menu for food. Their cheesy mac and cauliflower buffalo bites were perfect and large enough to split between two people and fill us up! And finally, the cheesecake - so so good. Don't skip dessert!
Kathy Osting Kwiecinski
I would rate this as average. Not somewhere I would return to. I had the chicken euphoria. Homemade pickles were good. Chicken was dry. Very chewy. The cadillac mac with lobster was very good. The cauliflower bites were tasty. Service was very slow. Didn't see our waitress for at least 15 minutes when we wanted our check. Others had the tacos. Nothing outstanding. Nothing was bad but nothing that impressed me to return.
Kyra Williams
We visited the C House on a Saturday afternoon. The weather was amazing so sitting on the patio was very enjoyable. Our bartender was attentive and the service was good. We enjoyed a flight of bubbles, a cheese plate and charcuterie board. The serving sizes were plentiful and the selection was fantastic. We also brought home a slice of cheesecake which was amazing. We look forward to coming back for a full meal sometime soon.
Micah Adams
Excellent spread, with great contrast! Got the chef's special burger and was one of the Greatest of my life. #burgerhunter
Israel Figueroa
Great drinks and food! Bartenders are awesome and the ambiance even better! One of my favorite places in Seminole Heights!
Pati Messick
Good atmosphere, music. Server very good. Food standard. Crab cakes lacking seasonings. Chicken sandwich tasted like something out of Wendy's. I guess we had chosen wrong off the menu is my saying! Went on recommendations.
AnaMaria Vazquez-Womack
Sunday brunch. Too busy. There was no available parking onsite. No overflow parking. We either had to park along the neighboring street or in the lot across the venue. Social distancing and masks are required but difficult to enforce. Clean. Service was friendly. Since it was a beautiful day outside seating was a must. Menu prices are influenced by the restructuring of the community. Overall a good first experience.
avery adams
Great ambiance. Bartenders skilled and personable. Once it gets crowded the service slows way down. The chefs board was bountiful and worth the money but it only had like 3 cheeses....and like 3 meats and 3 pates. The first impression was beeeeeige everywhere. Lovely pickled accoutrements. Drinks on point. Damn I wish I knew the really thin bartenders name. He was on point with recommendations and skills.
Erica Whittaker
The burger is so good. The crab cakes were so good. The citrus Cheeseake was bomb. Live music is always good too ⚡️
Jenn Garrison
Trendy, inside is cozy but stylish. Make a reservation for inside, or dine outside. Fantastic drinks and food, jump next door to Mandarin Heights to keep the party going
CASEY TROTTI
Food was fantastic! Sat outside. Ordered the charcuterie plate and the blackened mahi tacos. Was some of the best food I've had in the area. Good beer and drink selection. Atmosphere is relaxed with multiple TVs outside. Oh, Turtle cheesecake was great as well.
Char
Chicken sandwich was delicious. Found a hair in my cheeseboard. Was told that the dessert area menu was "art only", so even though this menu had prices, we couldn't order the chai or hot chocolate.
Laura Squitieri
I like the food so far, have been a couple of times. I enjoyed the gnocchi with chicken on this visit. Our server was very attentive. They seem to always be busy so guess that's a good sign. My only critique would be it's a little noisy. Also there's a lack of parking spaces.
Stone25
Very enjoyable. Love the menu and wine list is full of good flavor. Cocktail menu is robust and inviting. Outside is comfortable with the gas heaters. You never know who you might see eating at the next table.
audylyn
This place was amazing! Our waiter was on point and the food was absolutely delicious! We came down to have a Happy Hour with our office: Seminole Heights Family Dentistry and we wanted to visit one of the restaurants in the community. We had a great time and I'm sure we will be back.
Alexandra Turner
Really awesome! We had a party of 11 and service was stellar. The food was so good and well presented. Whether you want a full meal or just a charcuterie plate and a cocktail, it is the place to go. Comfortable atmosphere, current without being annoyingly trendy. Owner was lovely.
Matt K
Came here on a late Thursday evening. A private event occupied the main dining area but the outside bar/patio was open with plenty of seating around the bar and at tables. The bartenders were fantastic and the drinks were well crafted. Snacked on some appetizers which were also good. Not sure who the live entertainment was that night but he was fantastic.
Melissa Morgan
The food, drinks and service are spectacular!!
Thomas Bonan
Excellent place for food and drinks. Great outdoor area, even when it’s hot out. Get the cucumber gimlet, poutine, and gnocchi.
CJ Diederich (Axios)
Service wasn't so good they made us wait like 45 minutes to order food and the Mahi Mahi was tasteless but the cauliflower Buffalo wings were delicious. It's also really pricey so make sure you're ready to drop $100±
Wigberto A. Aponte, MBA
Good place for a couple drinks and food. Good ambient, music and vibe.
Ree Barbato
Not what I expected as they are always busy. Tampa must be settling now. Prices were too high for the serving size and not as much of a delicacy as the menu let's on. Bland.
Jackie Deandrade
Great atmosphere indoor and outdoor. Really good Carne asada tacos and delicious burger! The cookie we had at the end of our meal was also good and super warm. Service is on point and there was not one bad song played. Loved their soundtrack.
Renia Carsillo
Good cocktails, nice atmosphere, friendly service...Unfortunately, the food is not great. charcuterie boards are not presented well, making several things on it difficult to eat. The food highlight for our table was my parmesan risotto (sold as an add-on side).
Go there for after-work or Saturday afternoon cocktails. Not dinner.
Gina C
Awesome beverage selection, tasty offerings, cool atmosphere. Service - outstanding. Thanks, Michael for taking care of our family today. We hope you’re there when we visit again.
John Kemper
Great atmosphere wonderful service. We had dinner on a Sunday night. We arrived at 9pm. Our server explained that the kitchen was closing in 15 minutes so we needed to put our order in soon. Other than that, it was a fantastic experience and meal. I would definitely recommend this place.
Tara Moody
Terrible. One star is too generous.
Note: See review from "J" from about a month ago. I was with her party. She was more than generous with her 2 star review in my opinion, but gives a full account of our experience.
Update: The owner contacted me through Facebook messenger. I told her about the review from "J" and after reviewing it she said that she thought she remembered the incident and that she had comped some items from the table. I had left after an hour of sitting there without having my order taken while random food was arriving at the table, so I wouldn't know. Anyway, she said that she would give both "J" and me a $25 credit, which would be "notated in the system". If I decide to go back, I will update my review.
Update #2:
I am upgrading my rating to 4 stars after having brunch here in May. Our party of five was seated inside near the kitchen. Service was quick and friendly. We all enjoyed our cocktails and food. The chicken and waffles were great. I would definitely try C House again.
Christine Antoine
I was a little disappointed with this place. I have a broken back and the seating was horrible for everyone at our table. Everyone(all 4 of us) were complaining of buttock and back pain. It's a cool, open, pub style restaurant. I was expecting to be really blown away by the food but I wasn't. I'm not sure if it's a seasonal menu? I felt like everything needed a little salt. The service and drink menu was good.
Robert Jernigan
For the price, the service and food simply isn’t good enough. We were there for almost 2 hours to get appetizers and entrees, and our first drinks took 20 minutes to get to us.
I appreciate Friday nights are busy, but when an average entree is $25 and you can’t get a glass of wine for less than $10, things should just be better.
Additionally, my appetizer (the gnocchi carbonara) wasn’t worth eating. Carbonara should have a think sauce that really just coats the pasta, and the sauce with this entree was like watery soup... for $20 😂
Love the charcuterie options and the restaurant is a cool concept, which is why my review wasn’t 2 stars.
curt agliano
Outstanding! Great food and experience!
Julian Ospina
Excellent food, when last night, great service but the parking sucks, I parked outside on the side walk like every one else and when I got into my car I had 3 tickets from the city of Tampa. 😡😡😡😡😡 …
Christy L
I wanted to try this place out, and wasn't sure what to expect due to the mixed reviews. Everything was great! We sat at the outside bar and had great service! We ordered the charcuterie, buffalo cauliflower, and wings. Everything was delicious and the portions were a good size. I would definitely try this place again!
Erik Stultz
Great place overall! Only knock I would have is that when we sit on the outside along the edges, the exhaust from the cars can be off putting. A small fence or greenery to block that would be great!
Sharita
I've been here at least five times and each time, I tried a different plate. My favorite hands down are the lollipop lamp chops, they are sweet and savory. Not too sweet but you can taste the brown sugar. The cheeseburger and fries are another good option, the wings are flavorful and the steak frites are good as well. The drinks are good but, it seems they are a bit selfish when it comes to the amount of liquor they put in one drink. Other than that, I would recommend the c house. TIP: if you don't want to wait to be served, I would suggest making reservations. Personally, I never made reservations here and only waited a while (30 min+) one time. I think that is hit or miss.
M E
Great atmosphere, beer and wine selection. Unfortunately my entre, the Chimichurri Steak was bland, small (for the $) and fries very oily & soggy. My friends were very happy with the sliders and salads (appetizers menu). Our waitress, Anna? was excellent. I did not tried dessert but heard the chocolate cheesecake was decadent. Will return.
Stephanie P
Fun place. Food tastes great. Approximately 3-4 vegan options. Delish craft cocktails. Felt hip and trendy. Was seated next to the speakers inside and it was LOUD. Perhaps more strategic placement of speakers for the sake of corner tables near entry.
Nikki Bowen
The cheese board here was very good. They had a unique set of jams and veggies to go along with the cheese and meats. Service was a little slow but they were personable and the owner stopped by to check on us as well. Charming patio area.
Selma Mandry
Wonderful atmosphere & gourmet food selection, with subtle Canadian flair. Best poutine. Gravy hot enough to melt my curds, but ready to enjoy upon arrival. & crab cakes to die for! Say hi to the owner while you're there, she's super sweet & clearly knows what she's doing here!
Shana Gagnon
Great place! The service was excellent, quick and accommodating! Super nice environment. The food and drinks are great! Definitely a place to check out. They even made the cauliflower bites vegan for me (since usually the batter has egg they made a tempura batter)!
Dana Tilton
Delicious charcuterie! Great drinks too!
Dara Link
This is hands down my favorite place in Tampa. Their charcuterie - WOW! Their cocktails are delicious - I recommend Calm Before the Storm made with Tito's. I recently had my bridal shower here in February and everything was so great. The food was good, the drinks were good and Jason our server is by far one of the best servers I have ever had.
Ali C
Love the ambiance and friendly waitress. The food was great and the cocktails lovely. If you're by the area, you will have fun, so drop by! Live music was fantastic. Yup I'm going back.
Celeste Juan
Depends on your server. Food is always delicious but service varies. Regular menu items with drinks can get a little pricey. $80 for 2 appetizer items, cheese plate and 2 drinks. The other night we got there at 5:50, we weren't given the happy hour menu, by the time our server made it to our table it was 5:55 pm. I asked about happy hour and she said sorry that ended at 6 , it wasn't even 6. They have a great happy hour menu.
Daniel Almodovar
Fantastic vibe, and atmosphere. I've been multiple times with different plates. I wasn't disappointed with any. Drinks and food including desserts bring me back with the added awesome service. The owner is fantastic and Jason our waiter too we ask for him.
Daryl
We tried about 8 different food items on the menu and everyone was pleased. Most of the cocktails were good as well, i didn’t like my old fashioned as it was missing some of the sweet and spice components but the black manhattan was a pretty interesting drink. As far as food, service, and atmosphere goes this is definitely one of the better quality places in the area.
Jessica Philips
One of my favorite places in the Heights. The burger is to die for, and if you can snag a spot for brunch, you WON'T be disappointed :) Make sure you dont miss out on the numerous amazing cheesecakes either!!
Niki Conner
Amazing service, food and music. By far the best in the area. Can’t wait to come back!!
Nestor Arzola
The cadillac Mac and cheese was good. Service was ok.
The scallops with "risotto" was not good. The scallops were undercooked with barely a sear. The risotto was anything but creamy, more of a cheesy rice in a pool of broth.
Overall a decent place but I would probably stay away from the more expensive meals if I ever go there again, since they did not take too much care in preparing the scallop dish.
Jordan Medlen
Great selection of beer, wine and spirits. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Was recommended The Dalmore Cigar Malt Reserve Scotch and it did not disappoint. The charcuterie was really good. The only complaint I have we're the tacos were a bit over salted and the pickles with the charcuterie we're sweet, which was just unexpected. Other than that, great place. Oh, live music certainly helps, and the guy they had performing was stellar. Great atmosphere. Will certainly be back.
rhonda lograsso
This place is good they don't have alot of menu choices if you are not into the meats/cheeses on board thing and it's pricey but it is an enjoyable experience service is good and staff is friendly
John B
Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. The weather was great so we sat in the outside seating area. We quickly discovered this is a great little gem tucked away in Seminole Heights! Food was great, service was fast and pleasant, just an overall great relaxing atmosphere. If you are loooking for a unique, locally owned and operated, non-franchise restaurant with great food and a wonderful ambiance to relax, enjoy some live music in the evening or a football game in the afternoon , this is the place to come!
Car Ander
This was a cute place. It is called the C house because everything starts with a C. The staff were friendly, but didn't come around often. The food was tasty. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We went on Saturday evening and there was live music. The singer was awesome!! However the only problem was I couldn't hear the person next to me. After all of that I am glad I went it was a good experience with my family.
Matthew Goldstein
Stellar stellar place with INCREDIBLE food and ambience… I am a hard critic and I would come back to this place anytime I am in the area… worthy of any NYC / Philly food scene I am used to…
Twin mom Hart
Ok, I love the C House. Awesome cheese boards and ceasar salad. This was my second time. First time was a weekend and I will say the chicken on my salad was a little bigger and juicier on the weekend but I'll give it another try to be sure. The flavor is delicious. We had the same thing both times, why, because it was good. We will venture the next time we go. You might want to make a reservation. Or at least call to see if you need one whatever night it is.
One negative issue, parking sucks.
FOOD GOOD, STAFF FRIENDLY
Bob Strzelecki
My visit was for Sunday brunch, and I was more then satisfied as was the rest of my family. I had the crab cake eggs benedict and was surprised at the quantity and quality of the dish. If you're looking for a great new brunch place then go to "C"s. BTW alcohol drinks served after 11AM.
Hector Lamb
Great place, in wonderful area. I was apprehensive at 1st, because I heard a lot of negative reviews. But after going for myself, I'm happy to say that it was awesome. The service was great and the staff was very accommodating. Number one thing that stood out about the experience was the atmosphere and the food. If you're looking for the most delicious foods that begin with C, with a chill vibe, Then the C Houses is the place to be.
M Bailey
One of the spots I love to visit. Good food and atmosphere
Ric Rini
I write plenty reviews in this space and have never commented on others opinion (it is their opinion) I believe some of the lower ratings may be a bit unfair - Given the circumstance of Mothers Day (one of the busiest restaurant days of the year) expectations to be seated without reservations is, well ridiculous. And the restaurant is relatively new - so I think there may have been some growing pains and staff inexperience here and possibly some unreasonable expectations. In any event.
The theme here are items that start with a "C" so you get the picture.
My wife and I stopped in to check the new scene out in Seminole Heights. It fits in perfectly with the genre. I love what they did with the interior and exterior spaces. Plenty of well covered outdoor seating. Despite being a warm June day the bar area seating and outdoor dinning area were ventilated with fans. My wife and I elected to sit at the bar top. The space inside is chic, hip and trendy but not pretentious at all - bar stools were super comfortable. You get a cozy at home warm feeling and even though it was June the faux fire place seemed to fit right in. I absolutely love the high vaulted open style barn ceilings and the preservation of the wood rafters adds to the experience.
We came for drinks and I enjoyed the black Manhattan Cocktail - My wife and I split the Cauliflower Bites - very well made, tasty and not over fried at all.
I also had an opportunity to have a brief chat with owner about getting some Carrot Cake ( you know the "C" thing). She seemed very genuine, charismatic and welcoming- eager to hear my suggestion. I left feeling appreciated.
I'll definitely be back , this is a great addition to the Seminole Heights area - so give it a try and maybe be a little patient until they can work out the kinks!
NOTE: this area is really becoming the epicenter of restaurants and bars so expect to wait if you do not have reservations during peak times.
Louis P.
This was my first time here. The place had a nice vibe, sort of a beachy kind of vibe. They have live music. The guy singing was very good. I was happy with service, the girls were smiley and pleasant. The food was ok. I had the tacos, they weren't bad just bland. Overall the place is great to sit have a drink and relax. I will return.
Sara Fulmer
Service was decent. The place was packed and you could tell the staff was overwhelmed. Food was mediocre. The live music was great and made the experience hands down. Staff and management could use some improvement or maybe we caught them on an off night.
Tiffany
The atmosphere was lovely but the menu for the price was a bit boring and flavorless. The charcuterie was good wasn't a fan of the pickled veggies but the elk and peppered salami was great.
Ruth Jones
I should have gotten the cheese board. Everyone around me had ordered one. Amazing looking! The key lime cheesecake was delicious. I did not understand why the hostess was hesitant to seat us at 5:00. Supposedly, there was a reservation arriving at 6:30, but I don't think 2 people eating at 5 would cause a problem. Fortunately, the manager stepped in.
Katrina Medina
I’ve never been disappointed by the C house. I’ve been here for happy hours during the week, date night, family gatherings and strict dessert sessions. I was happy to learn they decided to stay open during this time and feel fortunate that I am able to support them.
Last Sunday my boyfriend came home with Chicken Euphoria, def lived up to the name. Plenty of fries to share, great buttery bun, juicy chicken with the best crunch and that coleslaaww! We ordered it again tonight, couldn’t stop thinking about it.
If I could make a suggestion, they should prepare it with the coleslaw on the side to prevent the bun from getting soggy. This would make sure everything remains intact for the ride home.
I have no pictures to share, none of the food lasted that long, haha!
Matt O'Brien
After driving along North Florida ave, we came upon C House. We noticed the parking lot was full and decided to take a look. We noticed diversity in the ages of the patrons and families dining.
We ordered the three section cheese board, manchego, aged cheddar, and the brie. Not only was the presentation beautiful, but the tasting of all three cheeses were above expectations.
We ordered the cheeseburger. Perfectly season and cooked to order. The flavor wanted you to have more. The added touch of bacon was delightful. The French fries added an extra touch.
The cauliflower bites added a new twist and reinvention of the cauliflower.
Our waiter Jason, had the knowledge of all items on the menu. The beer and wine menu is enough for all pallettes.
Danna the owner greeted us. She was pleasant and thanked us for coming.
Jeff Kaplan
I have been to the C House a few times it's a great place for food and drinks. My wife ordered the crab cakes and they were very disappointing. They gave us 2 crab cakes there was little to no crab. I would rather have 1 good crab cake 2 stuffed with bread. When I break open a crab cake I want to see crab. The ceasar salad, cocktails, and service was good. I did mention to out server the dissatisfaction with the crab cakes and he said he would tell the kitchen. The deserts are amazing.
Konrad Trapler
My wife and I went to the C House for the first time last week and were wonderfully surprised! A very diligent and professional staff made us feel extremely safe and comfortable dining out during these difficult circumstances for us all. Best charcuterie ever, and looking forward to returning soon!
Chris Matthews
Sergio is the best! Always takes care of us. Great bartender, and honestly just an all around great guy. Sit at the bar and you get to see the master at work!
Kimberly Green
Their charcuterie board was delicious. Service is outstanding.
Troy Landon
Been here many times. Personally, I've only had the Chipotle Honey BBQ wings because they are, hands down, the best wings in Tampa. My wife mixes it up with the menu and we are never disappointed with the food or the service.
Rose Ricciardella
The wings, and the grilled swordfish over risotta were excellent. The craft cocktails were presented beautifully. We sat at the bar outside. Hailey and Kadai were great!
Stephanie Hoskins
My husband and I made a quick stop here before a concert at the Yuengling Center, near USF. We were seated quickly but it was an early evening. Recommend making reservations. The outdoor seating was great with live music, TVs, bar scene. Our food was delicious and the service was fantastic. We will definitely be back next time we’re in Tampa. *My only concern was when we ordered the chef’s charcuterie board it did not have nuts listed and my husband has a severe walnut allergy. I had to remove half the board from him. I would encourage servers to ask when customers order if anyone has a nut allergy.
Jonathan Castro
It was a very pleasant day and spending part of it here was nice. The staff was awesome and the food was amazing.
Additionally,
We asked about the brunch and our waitress was so nice to see if an item on the menu included peppers.
John Scott
When we got there there was a 1 hour wait and the greeter told us we had to have a reservation. It wasn't until we ask the manager that he told us if someone doesn't show up for a reservation 10 minutes after they scheduled it you can have that seat. Once we were seated it took a very long time for someone to come see us. The food and the atmosphere were really good.
Danica Davis
My friends and I met here for happy hour last week and loved it! The staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful. They didn't rush us through questions and gave us lots of suggestions and options. It felt like a good place to hang and enjoy company and drinks and food - welcoming.
And the food - we ordered one of each of the happy hour apps. A cheese tray, charcuterie tray, buffalo cauliflower bites, and poutine. It was all good but the buffalo cauliflower and poutine were REALLY good. There was a good selection of desserts. We tried a few of the cheesecakes - the keylime one was great.
It has a great atmosphere - clean, simple, and cozy. Definitely a neat little place in the area.
William Johnston
So this place was a bit of a surprise...the location seems out of place...it ought to be off swann in south tampa or on the clearwater beach strip. Anyway...the outside bar seemed to have a life of it's own andvwas very festive. My wife describes the decor as "Country Chic" lots of white wood and open rafter ceiling...it felt like we were somewhere else....not off Florida Ave. Well done! The food...i think they have a lot of happy hour business and apps that support it well. I tried pountine for the first time...they did a great job but maybe too rich for me. The candied lamb pops! Holy Molly probably the best lamb ive had in a long time...it was literally crunching yet tender and flavorful inside. Great dish! The gnoochi was perfect...my wife loved her food as well! I'll be honest we dined months ago and i can't remember everything only that we really enjoyed it all and took out leftovers home....no shame people! Dont waste great food! We really loved the champage tasting flight they offered! 4 i believe. My wifes cocktail was great. Im sorry to be vague but everything we tried was delicious!...we will be back soon and be prepared for a more detailed review!
Nicole
The C House was the super cute place to go to. I thought it was really fun that everything started with the letter c. All of the food that I had was really good and the Mojito that I had was delicious. We also have the cheesecake for dessert and it was very yummy. I would definitely recommend this place. I plan on going there soon!
ROBERT HOUSTON
Great food, Great service, Great atmosphere
Ryan Hendricks
We stopped in on a Saturday for drinks and snacks at the bar. The cocktails are fantastic and their whisky selection is pretty good and well priced. The cheesecake is AMAZING! We will be back for dinner and charcuterie for sure.
Craig O
Cool vibe. Food and service were great. Portions are big. Buffalo cauliflower were delicious with the right amount of spice. Covered outdoor patio is pet friendly with live music on weekends.
Jaime Foll
This was my third visit to The C House since it opened. My first two experiences were amazing! I have raved to everyone how great the cheese and charcuterie plates are, as well as their cheesecakes. Unfortunately, this most recent experience, albeit pleasant, did not hold up to my previous experiences and it primarily was a result of the immense decline in quality of the cheese and charcuterie plate—it was substantially less than my previous two visits. The quality of the cheeses and meats were not as good and practically flavorless (and we ordered several of the same as before knowing we liked them). The accoutrements were basically only picked vegetables and the amount of mustards and jams were severely lacking—literally a teaspoon of each is all you get! Other than that, the rest of the food was delicious and bountiful and or server was very friendly and attentive.
Carolyn H
So good. Our food came out at different times, but they apologized and gave us a dessert on the house. Love the outdoor seating!
Daniel Brown
Best burger in town. Possibly best chocolate chip cookie. The fries are great. Cauliflower bites just right. Chill atmosphere. The C house is on point all around.

We ate here for valentine's day. We both enjoyed our food. We got a charcuterie which was really nice and flavorful. Our surf n turf entrees were also really good. Our daughter got chicken strips that we had to test which were also great. Only gripe is parking. The lot is way too small and we were instructed to park in the local neighborhood. Parking was still difficult if I didnt want to walk a mile and i also felt odd parking in front of someone's home.

Absolutely wonderful food and atmosphere!

Love the vibe of this place and nothing I've had has disappointed me. And the chefs burger is very much my favorite burger in the Tampa area.
Delois Young
We had the Crustacean Roll, Gnocchi carbonara, lamb chops and a charcuterie board with the venison. Everything was absolutely wonderful including the wait staff and musician. Definitely will return.
Peter Samuelson
Very trendy little bar with great cocktail and appetizer options. We enjoyed the patio and had enough room for our dog to be there as well. We look forward to returning here soon.

A fun and different eating experience with a very creative menu. Also, "Micaela" provided a stellar serving experience, even going above and beyond to get us information that is typically outside of a server's duties. Recommended!

I have been coming to C House semi regularly ever since the grand opening and can already sense this will be a successful Seminole Heights establishment.
The food is on point. You need to have a charcuterie board and if you like Buffalo sauce, get the Colliflower bites. There's a lot of the menu I haven't tried yet and want to!
I see attentive service on every visit, last night, my bar neighbor had a piece of cheese brought out to him by a chef. I don't know the details of the exchange, but the customer had a huge smile on his face, I could see he was satisfied.

Food service & atmosphere all excellent!

This is a really nice place great cocktail bars and food. Thanks for hosting live music. Big shout to Cabot and Jennie, and the rest of the staff

Short review: Interesting concept. Nice place to go with a group to socialize and share food and drink. Focus on the charcuterie, desserts, and drinks to maximize culinary pleasure. Parking sucks.
Long review: This place is interesting. It's got that same "fixer upper" styling; the rustic, but cool look to it. Pretty much the same hipster vibe that has taken over Senior Heights.
The staff is friendly enough. The manager (?) was super nice and so was the tall guy.
The drink options are good enough. I'm not a big drinker but I was surprised by the number of beverages they could cram under the umbrella that is the restaurant's concept.
The charcuterie plates are very tasty and the desserts are quite enjoyable.
The middle of the visit is where the food and the restaurant's concept seemed to fall flat for me. We got the chicken biscuit sliders and chimichurri steak frites. The steak was good, but the accompanying "cut fries" and salad were unremarkable. The chicken biscuit was a noble effort but it was a miss. The chicken and biscuit were pretty dry and it also came with the same, unremarkable, "cut fries" mentioned with the steak.
I landed at the 4 start rating after taking the average rating from the rest of my party. I personally would have given a 3 star, but others really loved it all and would give 5. So I split the difference.

Great food, the churasco steak is the best I have had in Tampa. They explained everything to heighten the fine dining experience but I found it a little much to describe every single cheese on the cheeseboard. I mean it was good. I prefer less talking and more tasting.
CJ Cook
This is my spot. love the concept,the menu, the bartender. The Brunch menu has been great everything I've ordered. I like the carne asada tacos, chicken wings, buffalo cauliflower, they offer a chicken sausage and a seafood sausage as well a few pork sausages for the charcuterie. The only draw back is parking. Otherwise... thumbs up

Great food and especially nice wait staff! The atmosphere is relaxing and this is the 1st place I've tried red wine I've actually liked! I usually only drink white but after trying there wine flights they have changed my mind! Love this place!
Jeffrey Suarez
Love this place. Great food especially the cauliflower. Cocktails are handcrafted by talented mixologist. Service is SPECTACULAR. The presence of an owner will always make this dining experience the best.
K Argote
I was really excited to try this place. Good place, not great. Was not what I expected. Ordered the 5 charcuterie plate. The prosciutto was not fresh and fish tacos were okay.
Kevin Canton
Jenny & Ashlyn you guys are the rock of this place! Ashlyn, you should be in Narnia crafting magical drinks! Ask her to make you the watermelon & jalapeño tequila drink 🍹... I felt I was back in Mexico. The funny part is that Ive never been in Mexico 🇲🇽! She recommended everything and with everything and more I took leftovers Togo! Jenny, thank you for making my afternoon eventful, I completely forgot I had to work. Great job girls!!! I will be back.

Went to the C house on Galentine's Day and had an amazing time at the place. They have plenty of vegan options, great desserts and cocktails. Would love to go there again to try new things on the menu.
Carl Maier
Came to Tampa for a long wknd. we came for lunch after the nearby zoo.The owner was our server, She was Extremely attentive and genuine. I was so enamored by her pride in the restaurant we decided to come back the following night for dinner. With a party of 7, and a packed house, we never once had to look/wait for our waiter to refill our drinks. If I’m ever back in Tampa I’d make it a point to return.
Marcus Finley
This place has a nice atmosphere, but the charcuterie board was nice and the sauces were amazing. The accompaniments were nice, but I feel like we got more of that then actual meet and cheese. The mac and cheese was ok, wings were good and overall, nice place, not great.
Samantha Jones
Drinks were good and the patio was a really nice place to sit, but the food just was not good at all. We got the poutine and the lobster mac and we couldn’t eat them. The gravy on the poutine was awful and gritty and the lobster mac just didn’t have good flavor or texture. I’d only go back for drinks.
David Rodriguez
Celebrated my daughter’s birthday at this wonderful establishment. Service was on point, food was excellent and the vibe made for a welcoming, celebratory feel. Can’t wait to come back for a date night with my bride!
Mikel Slaman
The food was incredible, but the staff stand out above all else. Wonderful place. Thank you for hosting my cousins birthday.
John Aldous
Was great. Please ask for Brooke for waitress and ask for dessert. And what ever you do, don't cut the staff off when you you say, "we are going for ice cream". You will regret it. The salted Carmel and citrus berry cheesecake, amazing. Truly, mind blown
Jill Stockholm
Been here a few times how. Have partaken of charcuterie, carne asada street tacos, chicken biscuits, chimichurri skirt steak and all were very good. Atmosphere is nice. Last visit I took my mom; she had the salmon special and stated it was one of the best meals she's ever had. Oh and dessert
AndyandSteph Martinez
Had reservations for Mother Day. Good was yummy, crab cake benefited was fill of meat and the batter on the chicken for chicken and waffles was perfectly seasoned. We were not rushed to leave since it was Mother Day. Loved the decor and even had a surprised Mother Day chocolate covered strawberry.

Amazing food, cocktails and atmosphere.
Caetlin Dempsey
Amazing food! One of the best restaurants in Tampa relative to the price. Great waitstaff!
Paul Kratz
The food was great, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was exciting. We sat outside and listened to the love music enjoying our meal.
A wonderful place in the heart of rejuvenating Seminole Heights. I will definitely go back again.
Charles Smith
Valued customer and a very enticing facility.
Tanya Phillips

Jonathan Conde
I have been wanting to go to this place for a while now. The experience from the beginning was great! The greeting from the hostess was top notch and the food was delicious! Definitely a place that I would recommend. Oh, and the Oreo & caramel was beyond amazing!
Rosanny Caballero
Stopped there for a quick late bite and a drink, awesome place!! The wings were great and the cheesecake
Terri “Terridiane”
Awesome neighborhood gourmet eatery with craft cocktails and specially selected chefs plates. Get a reservation! The poutine is so good. Nice wine list with a wide selection of both reds and whites.
Heather Resina
Food and drinks were wonderful. Great variety of all kinds of favorites. Ate outside in patio where they had heaters and live music. Sadly, the waiter wasn't great, and the hostess was a bit snobby, but will return for the great food.
Gary Anthony
4th time here with a group & I must say this restaurant is ON POINT! From the food to the service, Gram (Bartender) kills it on the cocktails-
We eat out more so than not, plus who’s not picky when choosing a restaurant that fully accommodates a group of 10 or less for brunch & yet every time The C house has come through & made everyone happy. Thanks again, I’ll pass the word on!
Steven Alianiello
Ashlynn is a bartender extraordinaire with a personality to keep me coming back!
Only enjoyed happy hour thus far, but it's divine and an actual deal worth returning for..
Don't miss out on this Seminole Heights hotspot with live music!
Nathan Pawelkop
Took 40minites to get our drinks. Waitress brought half our drink order (which was incorrect) and didn't even bring out the other half of the order until we mentioned it. Then we ordered three plates to share and only received two of them but still got charged for all three. Food was good but service needs help.
Jose Zapata
Not my cup of tea.. food was ok. Drinks were pricey
Has a cool vibe but not sure if I would try it again.
Server was very good
Carlos Tenorio
Our first time at C House, excellent customer service. Very friendly staff!!
Robert Peters
It's an interesting concept baking on the success of the trendiness of the neighborhood that probably has something to offer the locals. But where it comes to execution the C House earns it's name.
The C House prides itself on "Champagne, Charcuterie, and Cheesecake", 3 things I am very fond of.
My wife and I arrived at 8 p.m. on a Friday evening to a modestly busy setting, a wedding rehearsal dinner was taking place in the outside seating area. The C House is located in the heart of the heights gentrification zone, and like many of these restaurants popping up, it has the rustic, industrial, look and feel to it. The outdoor area is large, with a nice bar, and several TVs making it feel a bit more "sport bar" than foodery. Their was live entertainment, a gentleman strumming a guitar and crooning his take on classic rock of the 80s and 90s; I have to assume he's a relative of the owners given his inability to hit a note properly. The inside is a comfy size space with a few high top tables in the center and seating at the bar. There is enough room to not feel crammed into an old garage on top of everyone else.
We waited about 15 minutes for a table. And our server was there almost immediately to introduce herself and take our drink order.
Not a drinking night, we order a bottle of sparkling water while we familiarized ourselves with the menu. Apparently an oddity as she had to go into the kitchen to investigate if they offered sparkling water. She returned some 10 minutes later with a bottle of sparkling water in a champagne bucket apologetically explaining that she had to put it on ice as it was room temperature.
She proceeded to explain the 3 C's that give The C House it's name and that the Charcuterie boards were ample and many couples find themselves full on the 5 or 7 selection boards. We ordered the 5 selection board and ask her to circle back in a moment while we decide on shareable openers for our meal.
Another 20 minutes later she informed us that our board was on its way soon. We ordered the Candied Lamb Pops and Ceviche as an opener with the intent of ordering meals if the presumably monster size Charcuterie board didn't do us in.
Another 15 minutes pass and a food runner brings out a medium size cutting board loaded with a mound of grapes, a humble offering of each cheese and a slim selection of meats. My wife and I frowned at one another, we've been here 35+ minutes and we're on a schedule, so we dig in heartily.
Not 3 minutes passes when our lamb and ceviche openers arrive. A moment later our server arrives to check on us, as I smile politely while my wife, beside herself, softly addresses the fact that our first course just arrived on top of the appetizer that we ordered more than half an hour previously.
The server apologized and explained that the Charcuterie part of the kitchen was in the weeds and well behind.
I'm just going to critique the food, if you've made it this far, you deserve a break. The lamb was, in fact, candied. The sear on it was perfect. That was the good part. There was not a grain of salt to be found in it. I love lamb, I make it all the time, I learned to prepare lamb in a 5 star restaurant. You have to salt lamb, it brings out the delicate flavor of the meat. It doesn't matter what your vision of the dish is, do the meat justice. This resulted in a sweet meaty bite that didn't taste at all like lamb; it was dull and lifeless. I wish this were Mary's lamb, she would have cried when she saw what they did to it and at least that would be salty.
The ceviche, a shrimp and vegetable dish, had the taste of the sea. Salty. With a hint of onion. That was it. You couldn't get the taste of the cucumbers over them. The crisps were crispy and also salty. If I were a savage I would have spread it on the lamb, but it had suffered enough.
We decided to forego any more C food. We paid our check, the server had taken 30% off of the lamb for it's speedy delivery and comped the sparkling water which had only just come to temperature.

Had an excellent time at The C House. The atmosphere and setting was great. Had a bartender take care of me named Rebecca who was friendly and gave some good recommendations for drinks and food to try. Awesome service and place to hang out.
