Piano bar (Credit: The Fox)
Black leather, sleek wooden floors, dim lighting and vibrant paintings set the mood at this old-school nightclub in Tampa’s Westshore District. Monday through Saturday nights there’s live music into the wee hours. On the main stage it’s mostly modern jazz – with a sprinkling of R&B and rock – to chill or dance to, while the cozy Piano Bar features Michael Barnes tickling the ivories and setting a romantic mood. The full bar has plenty of spirits to set the tone for an evening of tunes and for those that prefer to dine and dance, the gourmet menu hits all the right notes.
