Ulele Bar

Enjoyed my early dinner @ the outside bar despite the bees & flies. Bartenders were friendly & prompt.

The ambiance was serene, what everyone comes for. The food was unfortunately not all that great. The chef came out to apologize though and they comped my food for being raw. The server, April was nice but she didn't give us their handmade chocolate that she gave everyone else; didn't even tell my boyfriend happy birthday. What's up with the service industry?!

The service is outstanding and do a good job checking-in. Could use more variety of local beers on draft besides IPAs. There's charging ports at the bar and ample space for getting work done. Great natural lighting. Perfect spot to pass the time before a flight!

At the Tampa Airport, Ulele is a great bet! Our server, Alberto, was attentive and great. My favorite was the okra and I would definitely order this again. I liked the blackened grouper, but would likely try something else next time. It was good, but not flavorful enough, in my opinion. All bar drinks are well made. There are other food options in this area, so you are able to please everyone, while sharing a table.

We have had horrible service allllll vacation and at the very last minute, Diana saved the day at the Tampa Airport Ulele Bar.The bar ran out of Watermelon Purée on a mix drink I ordered, she suggested strawberry as a replacement and the drink was fantastic! The cherry on top, she was super sweet and welcoming.....thank you for ending the trip proper with a fantastic drink and great customer service. Management you need to acknowledge her!!

Had 45 minutes before boarding and wanted to grab a quick lunch. Tampa Airport is my favorite airport, but it's still an airport, so doesn't always have the best, cleanest, feel-good food options. Ahead of a 4.5 hour flight I wanted to feel good, so opted to get the lunch turkey club from Ulele. My server Elizabeth had a smile on her face the entire time. I told her about my dairy allergy and she kindly double checked on a couple things for me!My sandwich came out so fast I was shook, and it was really good! The bacon was crispy, but the housemade chips stole the show. Loved the housemade ketchup and I liked the "jimmychurri" as well. Overall a solid pre-flight meal!

Although I am glad they have a location in the airport, it is not the same as Tue genuine Ulele. Today I ordered the blacked Grouper sandwich. See attached photo. No, I didn't eat half of the meal before I took the photo. This is how it came. Yes I wanted it plain. No, I did not order a slider. The server was embarrassed to serve it. But he did and did not offer a solution when I mentioned that I didn't order a slider. It was tasty but not satisfying. $20 was a giant rip off.

This is probably the best restaurant in an airport that I have had. The food is very good and the staff is always friendly. It's my go to stop when flying southwest out of Tampa. It's very open and a great place to people watch while waiting for your flight.

We ordered prize winning meatloaf and grilled grouper both meals were excellent. Atmosphere so enjoyable eating waterfront warmed by heaters. Servicer was knowledgeable and helpful.

Food was so good and quite original. Went last week of Dec holidays and still felt good to be outdoors. It is a longer wait than I'm used to but with it.
