This place is awesome. It’s a wine/tapas restaurant. Perfect place to hang out and enjoy my glass of wine. Sat at the bar and Angie (super nice and pretty) was our bartender/waitress. Quick and efficient. Knows her menu. Sip85 is known for it’s wine list!!! Happy for me!! I had the Sea Sun, California x2 glasses . Great for its price. Must have: Everything Pretzels & Truffle Mac&Cheese. These two starters are yummy yummy. For our meal, I shared with my hubby, Linguine Shrimp-pesto/grilled asparagus/sun dried tomatoes/mushrooms/shrimp. Delicious!!! The atmosphere is quaint and you can tell there are repeating guests! That should tell you how good the food is. Did I tell you bout the wine list!! The fist thing you see in the menu is the wine list. The place is one of my go to places here in Tampa when I need to de stress and enjoy my food.

This place is amazing!!!! Every single course was perfectly prepared & played. Our waitress was kind and very attentive as well. Worth the price point! It’s located in a plaza area, it’s a smaller quiet place. Nice wine list too.

Went to SIP85 for a Birthday celebration for my wife. Made a reservation and when we arrived we were seated right away. Our server was very friendly and attentive. They have a great wine selection and drinks were very good. For dinner we ordered the pork chops with Brussel sprouts and mac and cheese, filet with Brussel sprouts and mac and cheese and the Linguine with shrimp. All the entrees were excellent. This restaurant is top notch and we will definitely be back!

Sip 85 was empty upon entering, but soon filled up with regulars that the server and bartender knew by name and greeted with hugs. Atmosphere : Quaint dining area featuring a modern twist on old world ambiance. Could see how it could be loud on a busy Friday or Saturday night, but if you want peace and quiet on a weekend night then stay home. Bartender: Anthony was very informative, warm and receptive with in depth knowledge of wines and menu. We were informed of their Tuesday night wine special, a 10 discount off bottles. He knew when to politely walk away from our conversation to tend to other guests. He told us he had worked there over 3 years which shows they the Owner/Management takes care of their employees. Food: Caprese salad with ripe tomatoes and fresh mozzarella cheese topped with fresh basil and balsamic reduction. Served with small side of mixed greens with shaved parmesan cheese adding value where one usually only gets the tomatoes and mozzarella. Filet tips on a skewer were perfectly prepared medium served with garlic butter and au poivre on side per my request because i had to try both. The garlic butter was obviously tasty, but the au poivre was perfectly peppery and buttery, I could just drink that stuff! Seared Ahi Tuna was perfectly rare (how it should be) accompanied by Asian slaw with Ponzu sauce, of which we ordered the half portion. We soon regretted not ordering the whole portion because it was so delicious! Finished with a slice of Salted Carmel cheesecake topped with chocolate candied bacon and took home a slice of pecan pie and vanilla ice cream. Their chef must be certified in the art of pastry because both were to die for. All in all a perfect meal from beginning to end.

This place is amazing! We chose this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion due to its location and good reviews. We were pleasantly surprised by how delicious all of the food was. The parmesan truffle fries are advertised as hand cut and I loved that they were crispy. The fish tacos were fresh a tasty. I would return to this restaurant just to get the steak frites again. I ordered it medium rare and it was better than any steak I've had in Tampa. Amazing food and staff!

First time to stop in to Sip85 was 4 years ago and I did like the cozy bar area and high tops. It happened to be Wine Wednesday and wines by the glass were 25% off. Staff was most efficient and pleasant. Tried the linguini and asparagus which was flavored well. Returned recently for Happy Hour and had a most enjoyable time. Angie was great!
