The Restorative

Had a wonderful meal here for the first time. Found through Mr. Tampa bay Instagram and it did not disappoint. Food was thoughtfully designed on the menu. Naan and dips are a must. We did a variety off the menu and some wine pairings which were recommended from our server. Service from everyone was over the top and very welcoming. They let us try the wine we didn’t have experience with and it was my husbands pick for dinner. We will be back when my MIL is visiting. It took us 30 minutes to drive there but it’s worth it.

After researching somewhere new to eat, The Restorative peaked our interest. I was a little taken back upon arrival, simply because of the plaza that the restaurant is in. However, do not let that discourage you! The inside is clean, trendy and welcoming. The food was delicious and service from Rachel was exceptional. I cannot recommend this place enough. My only ‘complaint’ is that the menu on the website is not the menu they were featuring that evening. Small disappointment but was quickly forgotten when the good wine was flowing and the food was served.

The restorative is truly a one of kind experience that needs to be treasured. The intimate dining experience allows for you to feel like you’re enjoying an experience, not just a meal. Because it’s so small, the chef has a lot of freedom for creativity, and that really shines in their dishes. They also utilize many local farms and purveyors which adds to the creativity and freshness of the food. If you want a dining experience where you can feel the love in each dish, you MUST go to the restorative!

My son, who lives in Chicago, painstakingly researched Tampa area restaurants to find one worthy for a gift certificate for Mother's Day. He chose The Restorative. What a wonderful experience at The Restorative last night with my sweet neighbor. Best dinner ever! Wonderful attention to every detail of a dining experience! A very happy and spoiled Mom!

An absolutely unique + amazing experience from start to finish. Chef Jason and Chef Tom are crafting something truly special at The Restorative. The way the tastes melt so incredibly well together is something I’ve never experienced before—every bite was a revelation. The menu is unique, intentional, and quite frankly, destined for greatness. Dunedin is lucky to have this level of talent. Don’t miss out on this place!
