Byblos Café has been an unparalleled success story. Opened 9 years ago, it has subsequently won virtually every award going; garnering praise and critical acclaim from the Tampa Tribune, St Pete Times and Creative Loafing, and most recently the coveted 2009 Best of The Bay Award.

The food – well worthy of all the accolades won – is exceptional, and centers on Mediterranean cuisine, resplendent with aromatic herbs, succulent meats and the freshest vegetables. Everything is prepared daily in-house from the finest ingredients. Nothing is frozen, there’s no MSG, the menu is extensive and the portions generous.

But the jewel in Byblos’ crown is undoubtedly the authentic belly dancers (Fri-Sat only) who weave their magical spell amongst the diners, delighting and beguiling onlookers like the Biblical Salome.

The interior is a masterpiece in itself – lavishly decorated to evoke the dusky atmosphere of the Eastern Mediterranean. Plump sofas and cushions, even a four poster bed resplendent with veils fit for a Sultan! It all lends Byblos an exotic atmosphere unlike any other.

The twirling belly dancers, combined with the sultry décor have the illusion of transporting you to a distant harem on the shores of the Mediterranean, to dine with Emperors and take delight in their cuisines and courtesans.

Located in the heart of South Tampa, such has Byblos’ reputation grown that it attracts diners from all over the Bay Area.
