I recently set out on a carnivorous expedition to South Tampa's Meat Market, one of the city's finest steakhouses.
State of plate: Meat Market is in Hyde Park Village. The restaurant offers a modern twist to the traditional steakhouse experience, serving everything from wagyu filet mignon to escargot.
What we ate: My date and I started with marinated steak and hummus ($12). The dish is served with grilled garlic naan and topped with tzatziki sauce and roasted garbanzo beans.
- We moved on to the wagyu beef ribs, generously coated in red currant barbecue sauce and paired with jalapeño coleslaw ($22).
- Finally, to our waiter's surprise, we ordered dessert: a warm, cream-cheese-filled cinnamon roll ($12).
If you go: Make sure to take advantage of Meat Market's dessert menu, which features a double chocolate torte and an upscale take on cookies and milk.
- Plus, they have a daily happy hour, with deals offered from 4-7pm.
