    Fantastic place for any type of wine drinker, from sweet and juicy to dry, oaked or bubbly. The menu is perfectly crafted with nice wine pairings with every dish. I throughly enjoyed a sparking red for the first time with an amazing salmon dish. The atmosphere is elegant but relaxing. The bar area is nice, especially for happy hour specials. Definitely recommend this restaurant for a wine tasting or a romantic date night out. Parking is very tricky unless you want to valet, and it's highly recommended you make a reservation as they are always quite busy.

    Since moving to this area, I have to say this is the best dining experience I’ve had! The winetasting and restaurant are so beautiful. The food is exquisite. Every bite was amazing. Our server Matt told us all about the vineyards, the wine, and the club. He was really amazing! At the end of the night we talked to the manager Greg because we are so happy with our experience. I never give five stars but this is a five-star place! You need to check it out! Oh, make sure you make a reservation!

    Hubby took me here for my birthday. I had heard so many things about this place. We did a wine tasting before dinner (it's only $10 pp). The wine tasting area was surprisingly busy for a Tues. They are generous with their wine tasting portions. We were tipsy before we even sat down to dinner. Hubby had the surf n turf (he loved it) and I had the pistachio grouper, which was an interesting yet appetizing mix. We had the nerve to have more drinks with our food (lol) and they ended up serving me two truffles for my birthday, on top of the dessert we ordered.

    I usually avoid places with more than 3 locations because that's when the quality starts to decline. This place, however, does not disappoint. We had a lovely dinner with a great atmosphere and a great server. Tommy gave great suggestions and really seemed passionate about the restaurant. The drinks were very tasty. The portions are much larger than expected so go hungry. We have enough leftovers for another dinner. The southwest egg rolls were the best southwest egg rolls that I have ever had. A must try! The drunken shrimp were also very flavorful. Everything was delicious but the two aforementioned items were the most memorable.

    Nothing but good things to say about this place. This is our second time back in a week. The service is excellent, the food is delicious, and the wine is great! We tried the Sparkling and White Flights on different occasions. My wife and I did blind taste tests to have some fun and both times their own wines turned out to be my favorites! Next time we're in town, we'll be stopping by for lunch/dinner again.

    I recently visited Cooper's Hawk Winery, and I must say it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a great evening. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive and knowledgeable about the wines and menu. Now, let's talk about the food – it was delicious! The menu offers a variety of options, and I was thoroughly impressed with the flavors and presentation. Whether you're a wine enthusiast or not, there's something for everyone. I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Cooper's Hawk Winery is definitely worth a visit if you're in search of a memorable dining experience.

    The drinks were very good. Especially the Manhattan. The flatbread appetizers were great. We had brisket and Italian sausage flatbreads. I especially enjoyed the Italian sausage. We had pork chops, risotto, filet mignon, hamburger and steak medallions and grouper. All were very good, but the risotto was not the right consistency. It was more like rice with cheese. The desserts were also super tasty. Overall it was a very good dinner.

    It was my first time but it's been on my list for a while. We started with their sample of Bordeaux. It was so good!!! Sadly, they do not offer it in bottles unless you're in their wine club and it's by wait list only. The warm pretzel bread for the table was a nice touch. I love when restaurants have unique breads to share. I had the soy ginger Atlantic salmon with wasabi mash and Asian slaw. The flavors were incredible! The salmon was cooked a little more than I'd have liked but it still was delicious. The wasabi mash was the star, by far, with an upfront wasabi taste but not much of a wasabi bite. VERY buttery. The potatoes still had some chunk to it. The asian slaw was well suited to the dish and brightened up the heaviness of the mash. 9/10 Mom had the fish sandwich which she thoroughly enjoyed. BFF had the piccata which I tried and it was also excellent. This restaurant is definitely in the pricier range than most places in the area. However, the quality of the dishes really makes it well worth the bill. I'll absolutely be back!

    Always a wonderful meal at Cooper's Hawk! Tonight I had the chicken piccata. Very nice portions! Had the Reese's cookie and ice cream for dessert. It was delicious. Prices have gone up (where aren't they, though??), but the quality makes it a great value! Looking forward to my next visit...

    Ate there for the 1st time last night. First whomever the bartender was knew what they were doing, because the drinks did not disappoint lol. I love when we get actual adult drinks with enough alcohol and doesn't feel like I'm drinking just juice. As for food from our complimentary pretzel bread, the appetizer, main dish & dessert. Were all really good. Definitely worth going back from time to time. We ready enjoy everything.

    A wonderful fine dining experience restaurant where the food is prepared for you in such a delicious manner that makes your palate want more. The service is very good with the pairing of the wine and decadent desserts. The portions are well sized to meet your expectations. The wine range is is also very popular with the local crowd.

    So this place was very nice, semi formal, nice for date night or business dinner. Staff was friendly, place was clean and elegant, and server was very polite and knowledgeable. Food taste was good, food was well seasoned, and well sauced where necessary. The Ahi was very good. The cheese plate was a bit disappointing as you can tell from the photo because the amount of selections on the plate was limited compared to the price of the dish. The blackened Ahi was cooked perfectly and the slaw was vibrant and made for a balanced dish. The roasted vegetables were perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The main problem preventing 5 stars is the portion size compared to cost was disproportionate. I’ve had just as good food in just as nice atmosphere for much less cost per plate. This place prices for atmosphere and not quality or quantity of food. I may not return only because there’s better more economical choices around town that provides high quality food, with better portion size in as nice of atmosphere. It earned 4 stars across the board but no more.

    OMG! The food, service, wine and atmosphere were amazing. Erica W. was our waitress in the bar area. She did an outstanding job and was very knowledgeable. The wines are so delicious. We decided to join the wine club. The food was on point. My husband got filet mignon and it was cooked perfectly and better than Berns Steakhouse. I got the Chicken Picatta and Whipped Potatoes and they were both delicious. The Charred Broccoli was amazing too. So many menu choices. Just go check it out. You will be glad you did. We will be back.

    The Mrs brought me here today. First, it's not really my kind of place. To me, it's kinda pretentious and has a crowd that doesn't match me. I understand that that is not a complaint, I just felt out of place. The Mrs enjoyed the wine tasting. Lunch took quite a while. I had the chicken picatta and was very pleased. The dish was hot and very flavorful. The Mrs enjoyed her lobster bisque and Caesar salad. I can't speak to the wine club. If you're like me, this is not your kind of place. Otherwise, you will have a good time.

    At first I thought this was of this type of expensive restaurants where everything was just bad, but it ended up being a cheap restaurant with ok food. The wines honestly there were nothing special, the food was good thought, but service was just slow and inefficient to be honest. Now, the price for what we had was really reasonable to what we were getting it. The location is nice and so on, but that’s it. People are very conservative so, it’s ok.

    Always a good meal. Appetizer -The shrimp appetizer and dumplings are so good. Pretzel bread with butter is addicting. I would eat with every meal if i could. The scallop risotto is my go-to but spicy pasta(Louisiana style) is really good. Ironically, haven't tried any wine but my neighbor is a member and raves about it. Dessert is amazing as well. Service is always top-notch.

  • 5/5 Sarah E. 7 months ago on Google
    I love Cooper’s Hawk. Great place to visit with friends whether it be a week day or a weekend. The food is always great and the atmosphere is even better. Tried some wine this time and I definitely can wait to come back for a bottle. If in the area definitely stop by.

  • 4/5 Gregory W. 8 months ago on Google
    Don't be rattled by the young crowd in the lobby swilling wine. If you're here to eat, CH is a safe bet with their fine service, hefty menu, and some solid, healthy choices. I can't say using wasabi mashed potatoes or Asian slaw as a foundation matches their mastery of the proteins (especially fish) they support and the high price they command. With so many "mystery vintages" to choose from, it's easy to make an underwhelming selection, but in this neighborhood crowded with choices, CH a restaurant worth considering.

    This was our first time. We celebrated our 36th wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed. Our waiter, Henry was awesome. He was very attentive, polite, friendly & knowledgeable about the wines. We loved all the menu options. My husband got the surf & turf. I got the fillet. It was tender and flavorful. The S’mores dessert was enough for two, much better than the Crème Brûlée.,Thank you Henry for a pleasant experience. We will return.

  • 5/5 Tracy J. 1 year ago on Google
    So yummy. My husband had the lunch portion of spaghetti and meatballs. He said it was very good. I had a perfectly medium rare burger. I could only eat half. It was melt in your mouth. We shared wine flight. We signed up for the wine club. It's an awesome deal, by the way. Will visit again..and often.

    A Culinary Haven in Tampa: Where Reservations Are Optional and Wine Tasting Awaits Rating: 5/5 Nestled in the heart of Tampa, this exceptional restaurant has captured our hearts and taste buds since the day we arrived. From the moment we step through its doors, we are enveloped in an extraordinary dining experience that keeps us coming back time and time again. As pescatarians, we are delighted by the diverse range of meatless options available on the menu. Exploring these dishes has become a delightful adventure, with each one surpassing our expectations. The culinary creations presented to us never fail to impress, making it nearly impossible to choose just one favorite. Our journey begins with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread, a delightful precursor to the culinary delights that await us. Admittedly, we find ourselves succumbing to the temptation of a second round more often than not. Among the standout dishes, the salmon with a side of creamy mashed potatoes drizzled with a tangy wasabi sauce never fails to leave our taste buds dancing with joy. Equally remarkable is the risotto, with its rich flavors and comforting texture. However, it's worth noting that every item on the menu is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and brimming with delectable flavors. One aspect that sets this restaurant apart is the laid-back approach to reservations. Here, we don't stress about making reservations or worry about long wait times. In fact, we embrace the opportunity for a wait because it's the perfect excuse to indulge in some wine testing. Armed with our monthly wine tasting pass, we eagerly sample new wines, enhancing our knowledge and enriching our dining experience. It's a delightful way to pass the time and make each visit even more memorable. The staff members at this establishment are extraordinary, effortlessly providing exceptional service that exceeds our expectations. From the moment we are greeted by the friendly and helpful hosts to the attentive care provided by the servers, every interaction leaves a lasting impression of warmth and hospitality. Over the course of nearly two years, we have eagerly shared this culinary gem with countless friends, and without exception, their experiences have been nothing short of exceptional. It's a testament to the quality and consistency of this establishment that not a single complaint has been uttered. The combination of outstanding food, inviting ambiance, and impeccable service leaves a lasting impression on everyone who joins us for a meal. In conclusion, this restaurant in Tampa is a culinary haven that continually captivates our senses. With its diverse range of delectable meatless options, inviting ambiance, expertly paired wines, and the freedom from reservations, it has earned its place as a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Whether you're seeking a memorable dining experience as a pescatarian, enjoy wine testing, or simply appreciate exceptional cuisine and remarkable hospitality, this establishment is sure to leave you satiated and longing for a return visit.

    Best dining experience my fiancé and I have ever had! Logan (male) and Taylor were amazing at the bar tasting and Logan (female) was the most INCREDIBLE server we’ve ever had. Such a great time all around! Thank you all! Also, become a member! Wine bottles roll over if you don’t pick them up every month. Such a win!

  • 5/5 Joy A. 5 months ago on Google
    We had an absolutely wonderful lunch here! You walk in to a shop where you can buy wine/chocolates/kitchenware. There is also a wine bar in the room. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. We chose to sit outdoors because it was nice and shaded and it was a bit cold inside. The menu has suggestions for wine pairings for the wines they produce and was very helpful. The chicken piccata and burger were delicious as was the seasonal bread pudding.

  • 5/5 George G. 5 months ago on Google
    Had the 3 course Thanksgiving dinner. Absolutely worth the experience. Definitely recommended for those who want to enjoy the Thanksgiving meal without the Thanksgiving prep. Cooper's Hawk starts taking reservations in October. First course consisted of butternut squash soup, second course was white and dark turkey meat with gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, vegetables, and cranberry sauce. For dessert, a pumpkin praline cheesecake. As always, the service (Jonathan) was courteous, friendly, and added to the experience. If available, I will do it again next year.

    A group of us ate a late lunch at Coopers Hawk today to celebrate a friends birthday. All parties ordered appatizers, entrees, and even flights of wine. Overall the food was quite good (pictured), with the exception of what I ordered. I got the lobster bisque with the fish and chips (not worth a picture.)for my entree. The bisque should have been refered to as a stew because for some reason it appeared to have mirepoix in it which was NOT detailed on the menu. It was dissapointing and not what I expected. The fish and chips was just bad. It looked like something off the kids menu. 6 fish sticks over soggy cold fries. Not worth the price. Over all a good experience for all but myself.

  • 4/5 David J. 9 months ago on Google
    We come here a lot and they have consistently been great. The food is always great and the service is too. We even joined the wine club a while back and it has given us a chance to try different wines and some have become favorites.

  • 4/5 eddie c. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience. The wine tasting was fantastic and the seasonal surf & turf dish was great. My one beef was the fried lobster tail — it wasn’t super clear that the dish was going to be fried and I would have strongly preferred it to be sauteed or steamed instead.

  • 5/5 Hillary M. 1 year ago on Google
    First time visiting, but we will return. There is a wine club with exclusive deals and offers. Also on point is the gluten-free menu. They even serve gluten free bread and butter. Extensive drink selection. Mackenzie was our excellent server.

  • 5/5 Rothschild D. 9 months ago on Google
    So glad I finally got to dine here! I had to pace myself with the bread, otherwise I wouldn’t have enough room for my appetizer or entree. The goat cheese was paired with different fruit compotes which really set off the sweet and savory combination. The risotto was hearty, flavorful and overall *chefs kiss*👩🏾‍🍳 a must try for fine dining!

    great place to eat. Food was great. Drinks were good. Service was helpful & attentive. Steak was cooked as I wanted. Will visit again. Thanks!

  • 5/5 Sandy S. 1 year ago on Google
    There was nothing we tried that I didn't like. Loved the pot stickers, and the egg rolls. No complaints about anything with our party of 10. It was a little loud and difficult to hear people talking but that's the only reason I gave 4 stars for the atmosphere.

  • 3/5 Brandi E. 1 year ago on Google
    I've had several friends rave about this place. We arrived without reservations and we're able to get a table with an hour and a half wait. Not a big deal as we wanted to do some wine tasting. Able to sit at the bar and enjoyed an App of ahi tuna. It was good. Then went back to our table and we ordered surf and turf as well as a steak. The surf and turf was good but my meal came out cold. Everything tasted good with flavor and the veggie mix was good. The pork chop with the surf and turf was thin and dry. The crusted grouper was really good. We had truffles for desert and they were OK, too much wax in the chocolate one. Wine was good. Overall I felt like my expectations were greater than the delivery.

    Birthday dinner reservations at 8p Pretty busy for a Wednesday, tons of birthdays going on. My Barramundi was amazing I subd rice for a side salad bc I'm on a special diet. Barramundi sauce was like a red coconut curry, flavor explosion! Second time getting Lobster Bisque, my fav! The second time my husband got the Blue Steak Salad. Love all the birthday merchandise. Always a great dining experience I had the flight on my first visit, ended up with 2 bottles of Sauv. Ended up realizing during this flight my original flight that I be thought was white wine flight got accidentally switched with bubbles flight. Great to have solved the mystery of the amazing almond sparkling wish it wasn't 160 carbs bc I'd shower in it every day! Loved the salted caramel creme brulee, healthier dessert opts are great I love that you can see the nutritional facts for their food & drinks right there We will definitely keep going back

  • 5/5 Danielle H. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious food and a very relaxing environment once inside the restaurant. We enjoyed the pork belly tortilla appetizer and then some delicious pork rib risotto and flank steak with drunken shrimp. Also highly recommend their cocktails.

  • 5/5 anh l. 2 years ago on Google
    1st time there. The food was amazing! I had the fish n chips (came with an asian slaw). The asian slaw was so light and crunchy! The fish batter was light and crispy with delicious dipping sauces. My daughter had the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich. It was delectably crispy and flavorful. My hubs had the steak salad, grilled to perfection. Charred and cooked medium just as he requested. Only one suggestion, the steak salad my husband had, needed a healthy fat, like avocado. Service was great too!

    I’m a wine lover, best place in the city to enjoy a wine tasting with friends. The food it is delicious and is not too pricey. Best wine list!!

  • 4/5 Nick Von D. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was delicious, as were the drinks. Service was sub par, and our servers knowledge of the extensive wine list was non-existent...

  • 5/5 Luisa V. 2 years ago on Google
    I went to Cooper's with my prima and we had soo much fun!! It was a Wednesday night and it was packed so we sat in the bar area. Our waitress was awesome and very friendly. We had two bottles of wine and some appetizers. Their brussel sprouts are CRACK!! Literally the best brussel sprouts I have ever had in my life. I would return solely for that appetizer!
