Oak and Ola in Tampa has earned a spot on Yelp’s Top 100 Date Night Restaurants for 2025. Just a few weeks ago, Tampa legend Bern’s Steak House also made OpenTable’s Top 100 Romantic Restaurants list. So, when it comes to Valentine’s Day, Tampa has plenty of options.

Located inside the popular Armature Works at 1910 N Ola Avenue, Oak and Ola is also featured in the MICHELIN Guide. Led by renowned chef Anne Kearny, the restaurant has quickly become one of the area’s top dining destinations, offering a lively atmosphere for a memorable experience.

Oak and Ola earns rave reviews from Tampa diners

The menu focuses on wood-fired cooking and draws inspiration from across Europe. For example, the roasted octopus combines Iberian flavors with chorizo, white beans, and kale. A German-inspired dish features bregenwurst with caraway-pickled cabbage and apple chutney. The yellowtail snapper with amandine sauce offers a nod to New Orleans, where Kearny made a name for herself.

The food here is all about bold, confident flavors and simple preparation. Whether you’re enjoying a dish with Spanish, German, or New Orleans roots, each plate is packed with character and expertly crafted.
