Willa's

“Our new favorite spot 😍 If I could give this place a 10-star for service I would! Starting off with phoebe… she was the most warm, most welcoming hostess ever! We chatted for about 10 minutes walking in on a Friday night and made us feel like friends immediately. Then she asked where we wanted to seat and I replied “if you were a customer, where would you be seated?” And she promptly sat us in Keely’s section. Thank GOD she did because what a delight. So to summarize, a 10 for service. For food we had the beef tartare, brussels and prosciutto with melon. Awesome. Cocktails were really good as well - when we come back we will reorder the rose sangria, jungle juice and espresso martinis with dessert. We will ABSOLUTELY be back!”

“We’re incredibly grateful to the team at Willa’s for supporting our Women in Tech and Entrepreneurship community. Hosting our monthly events requires a venue that can accommodate large groups while still feeling warm, welcoming, and beautifully designed, and Willa’s delivers on every level. The space itself is stunning. From the bright natural light to the thoughtfully designed interiors and relaxed outdoor areas, it creates the perfect environment for meaningful conversations and connection. Our members always comment on how comfortable and inspiring the atmosphere feels. Beyond the space, the service has been outstanding. The team is attentive, organized, and genuinely supportive of our mission. Coordinating events for a large group can be complex, yet the staff always makes the process smooth and enjoyable. We feel fortunate to have partners like Willa’s in the Tampa community who support organizations like ours and help create spaces where women can connect, collaborate, and grow. Highly recommended for both events and a great dining experience. 💛”

“Wow! Talk about stumbling into a gold mine. Our Sunday brunch plans didn't go to plan, which brought us to searching for alternatives. Willa's was in the area and we decided to check it out. I am so glad we did! Firstly, all the aesthetic brunch girlies will love this place. The decor is tame, inviting, and very Florida. The atmosphere is chill and inviting. Service was quick, efficient, and friendly! We were sat at the bar (which could improve with a foot rest under for patrons at stool level), and immediately passed menus. I love that the menu wasn't overwhelming, but everything sounded delicious so making a choice was difficult. The star of the show: the food!!!! Not only did we not have to wait more than 15 minutes, everything was presented beautifully and came hot and fresh. I highly (!!) recommend the potatoe latkes. Oh my goodness, if I had more room I would have ordered another round. Crispy, crunchy exterior and a hot and fluffy interior with the most delicious scallion flavor. If you have the opportunity, stop in. If you want a table, make a reservation.”

“We wanted to have breakfast on Saturday morning, so we went to Willa's. We found parking in their lot. We checked in at the reception, then got seated at our table and greeted by the server. After looking at the menu, we ordered Black Coffee, a Latte, a Chicken Salad Sandwich, Nate Plate with Salmon, Scrambled Eggs, and Kids French Toast. We got our coffees first, and they were made really well, a great start to our breakfast! We got the rest of our food around 10 minutes later. We had Chicken Salad Sandwich, Nate Plate with Salmon, Scrambled Eggs, and French Toast for breakfast, and they were all delicious! The Chicken Salad Sandwich was great, it was well-made and came in good portion, which really satisfied our hunger.”

“Brunch at Willa’s was a great experience. We loved the open, inviting space with its hand-painted mural and long bar seating. I ordered the sourdough French toast—crispy on the outside, soft inside, and perfectly brightened with lemon curd. Outstanding. My wife had the classic chicken salad sandwich; it tasted a bit mild to her, though I found it nicely balanced. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and offered suggestions for our next visit. A wonderful North Hyde Park spot we’re happy to return to.”
