Columbia Restaurant - St. Armands Circle

Family-owned and operated for over 107 years, Columbia has earned acclaim for its old-world charm and award-winning Spanish/Cuban cuisine and wine list. Join us for century-old family recipes like Paella "a la Valencia," Filet Mignon "Columbia," and fresh seafood specialties. Don’t miss our world-famous "1905" SaladTM, prepared tableside with our delicious, freshly-made dressing, a family recipe of fresh garlic, oregano, wine vinegar and Spanish extra virgin olive oil. Be sure to sample a fine Spanish wine like Torres, Montecillo or Campillo. Relax outdoors on our patio with an ice cold pitcher of Sangria or Mojitos with your meal while watching shoppers stroll along St. Armands Circle, or enjoy a meal inside our Mediterranean-style dining rooms filled with hand-painted tiles and family heirlooms. We are a sister to the Columbia in Tampa's Ybor City, Florida's oldest restaurant, founded in 1905. Children's menu available. Open 365-days a year, including all holidays. Read Less
