Could The SeaGlass Tavern Be The Most Beautiful Restaurant In Tampa Bay?

What makes a great restaurant? Obviously it's the food but decor and atmosphere play a role. Could the SeaGlass Tavern be the most beautiful restaurant in Tampa Bay?

From the looks of it, the SeaGlass Tavern will be a dining experience for the eyes as well as the palette. The menu brings tastes from New York City, Boston, and San Francisco all under one roof. But the decor of the SeaGlass Tavern is what will have you talking. When you step inside you will see "a gorgeous mix of textures 'with a San Francisco Wharf feeling.'” According to management, the bar top will be a "show stopper."

Early drafts of the menu show surf and turf selections along with comfort foods. SeaGlass Tavern has a strong emphasis on using fresh ingredients from local sources. They also plan on having a brunch menu, which from what we have seen, looks amazing!
