This is where I ate lunch yesterday with friends. The Columbia Restaurant is a famous Spanish restaurant in Ybor City Tampa, Florida established in 1905. It is Florida's oldest restaurant. There is also one at St. Armand’s Circle Sarasota, Florida at which I have also eaten years ago. The food is outstanding delicious Spanish food. The tile work on the outside walls, and the paintings on the inside are amazing artistry. I even saw a small Salvador Dali painting on our way through a room with a huge crystal chandelier. We sat in a beautiful garden type room in the middle with a sky light, arches and the 2nd floor balcony visible. I hope you enjoy!
