Great food and our service was even better. Our waitress was attentive and kind. In addition to this, she was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and places to go around Tampa. Also, my husband and I had the awesome opportunity to meet one of the owners of the restaurant, Wife Hales. It was a pleasure and good luck with the new location!

I just want to start out by saying I am not trying to sway anyone away from coming here but it is in my opinion that this isn't the best Chinese restaurant in Tampa. While there was nothing wrong with the dishes we were served and the staff were friendly and attentive, nothing here blew me away or seemed like a unique take on classic Szechuan cooking. Also they preface at the beginning of the meal that their dishes are to be shared "family style" and they are large portions but in reality everything we ordered, with the exception of the fried rice, was moderately sized at best. My favourite dish of the night was the Duck Breast. It had an orange sauce that was sweet and punchy. Duck was cooked well but odd it is a $31 dish that does not come with any rice.I won't go into detail of every dish we had because they all were fine and we didn't have any complaints. My issue is they present themselves as elevated Chinese but it really is just comparable to PF Chang's. I think if that's the kind of Chinese food you like you'll love this place. Lastly the decor is very kitschy. It really throws you off upon entering. It does not match the food or the price tag.

This is the second and newest location for Hales Blackbrick. The restaurant is located in the space formerly occupied by Thee Tree House. They completed revamped the space and spared no expense. The space is artistic, funky, modern, and elegant. In terms of design, it seems like a space you are more likely to find in Wynwood than Tampa...and thats a great thing because there is no other restaurant like it in town.In terms of the food, it has the same menu as the other location.I visited the restaurant during the grand soft opening. The service and food were both excellent. I highly recommend Hales Blackbrick in Hyde Park. Definitely check it out!

Had high expectations but it fell short. It's not that the food doesn't taste good, it's that it doesn't taste as excellent as the price tag says. The value isn't there. Also as Chinese, just because there's ginger or dry chilli pepper, or garlic used doesn't make a dish Chinese. It's fushion at best, almost everything (except dim sum) that we inquired is at least lightly fried if not deep fried, which makes it not healthy or the way to prep fresh ingredients in Chinese mind set. The value is low, kind of like Ro in Hyde Park. It's good, just not good enough for the price. Service is good if not TOO attentive on a Monday night. Me and my friend were trying to talk the duration of the night but our conversation was interrupted probably 20 times, dishes were taken away almost too quickly, as they were "hurrying" us when there are other tables open. Drinks are good also not $18/19 good.

We enjoyed our large group dinner! The back room had two large circular tables with marble lazy Susans, perfect for sharing- and also a bit quieter than the rest of the restaurant. However, the rest of the restaurant was extremely loud! We ordered a little bit of everything with the highlights being the dumplings, rabbit, bison, and Brussels. Everything had quite a kick, so be prepared for the spice! The low light was the truffle fried rice- not a distinct truffle flavor. Overall, the prices were STEEP for the atmosphere which was club-like. Our waiter was prompt and friendly. We even got to meet Chef Hale which was super cool! I have a lot of respect for him coming to each table. Overall, it was a great evening and definitely a restaurant where you should go with a large group to share items, so that you can try as much as possible. Just be prepared to spend a pretty penny!

This place is incredible. The food, the service - everything was incredible. My friend and I had a few dishes, and they were all so good. The drinks were great, and the wine selection is killer. I will be back, and I have already recommended this to a ton of people!

I'm not going to leave a bad review. I'm giving 4 stars for the food. Sat at bar on a Wednesday and the bartender said she would make us a drink before sitting at our table. My husband said we didn't want waters but that's all we got because our drinks weren't ready he didn't even get his beer. Bartender said drink is on her (my drink I ordered never came) because they were out of ingredients.Either way this was a very special occasion and it was very underwhelming. The food was good was just hoping for more "sizzle" for cost. I did get a call after we left as an apology to make things right. I'm going to try this place again. I was going to for birthday party at end of month but I think I'll try again before spending that kind of $ especially on a big group

We had the chicken and chive noodles and the pork ribs with the tower of shui Mai. All delicious! The restaurant is tastefully decorated with an upscale vibe. Valet parking was a nice addition. This location is close to our home so we'll be back again.

Amazing experience with a great atmosphere and outstanding service. The food was absolutely delicious--be sure to try the pork belly! The egg rolls are also a must.

Excellent as always. At first I was skeptical this wouldn't live up to the hype of the original location. Highly recommend the tomahawk steak along with the cauliflower. You can't go wrong with anything here, but those stole the show. Service was great and so were the cocktails. A fun spot for Asian fusion with a lively ambiance. Chef Hales always knocks it out the park.
