Where to Dine in St. Petersburg
Tampa Bay’s more bohemian twin city isn’t part of the Michelin Guide, but that hasn’t stopped a restaurant revolution there, too. Here are three spots we’re watching.
Intermezzo Coffee & Cocktails
This is the coffee-cocktail spot everybody needs close to home. By day, this Edge District cafe is about coffee, pastries and digital nomads on laptops. By night, regular live music transforms it into the ideal cocktail bar.
1111 Central Ave., St. Petersburg, FL

Taverna Costale
Squid-ink linguini and grilled swordfish piccata are among the coastal Italian fare on the menu at this two-year-old concept from celebrity chef Fabio Viviani.
200 Central Ave. Suite 165, St. Petersburg, FL

House of Vegano
Sushi gets a vegan treatment at this spot in St. Pete’s emerging Warehouse Arts District, earning a spot on the Tampa Bay Times 2022 list of the best dishes.
1990 Central Ave. S, St. Petersburg, FL
