Meat Market Tampa – A Glamorous Steakhouse with Wine Spectator Accolades

A Glamorous Take on the Steakhouse

At Meat Market in Tampa, the traditional steakhouse gets a sexier, more glamorous makeover. The restaurant describes itself as "a dynamic offering of what’s great now," with a menu that changes daily, weekly, and seasonally. Under the supervision of Executive Chef Sean Brasel, the kitchen focuses on prime cuts of meat, delicate seafood, and fresh produce, all prepared with an artful, contemporary spin.

The menu reflects this commitment to quality and variety. Guests can choose from signature steaks like a 32oz Wagyu Beef Tomahawk Ribeye, a Linz Heritage Reserve Ribeye basted in duck fat, or a classic Filet Mignon. For lunch, options range from a Churrasco & Frites to a Blackened Scottish Salmon. The restaurant also features a raw bar and a selection of creative sandwiches, including a Wagyu beef Classic Burger.

An Award-Worthy Wine Program

Meat Market’s dedication to excellence extends to its beverage program, which has earned the restaurant a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence. The wine list is carefully curated to complement the menu, with selections by the glass and bottle spanning Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Sauvignon, among others. The cocktail menu is equally inventive, featuring drinks like the Fresca Pepino with vodka, ginger, and cucumber, or the Hardcore Green, a blend of kale, celery, and spinach with a choice of mezcal, tequila, or gin.

The Lounge and Private Events

Beyond the main dining room, Meat Market offers The Lounge, a dedicated nightlife space open on Fridays and Saturdays. For those planning gatherings, the 6,000-square-foot restaurant can accommodate everything from intimate dinner parties to large corporate events, with a private dining menu featuring prime cuts, fresh fish, and seafood. The Tampa location also serves brunch on weekends and offers a daily happy hour, making it a versatile destination for any occasion.
