The Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel & Marina in downtown Tampa is one of the premier venues and hotels in the Tampa Bay area, and Waterside Grill inside the hotel is a popular and top-notch restaurant. Waterside Grill has announced they will serve a Christmas buffet from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on December 25th, so why not skip the stress of cooking this Christmas and let an experienced hospitality staff do the work?
The menu includes a salad station, fixings, a chef station, and a dessert station. Start out your Christmas buffet with a variety of holiday breads, fresh cut fruit, and a Waldorf or crisp Caesar salad, followed by fixings like Yukon Gold mashed potatoes, seafood jambalaya, pan-seared snapper, rosemary honey roasted carrots, and a locally-harvested vegetable medley. The chef station will feature one of my personal favorites, orange bourbon glazed ham, along with pickled mustard seed prime rib with horseradish cream and au jus. The dessert station will make sure you are in the Christmas spirit with peppermint chocolate pudding, gingerbread cake, white chocolate cranberry cheesecake, and numerous other options. Check out the full Christmas buffet menu in the photo above!
The Tampa Christmas buffet is priced at $40 per person, and you can make reservations by contacting the hotel directly or online on OpenTable. Make sure you to reserve your spot today to help ease the holiday pressure of cooking for the family by visiting the beautiful Waterside Grill. After eating, work off some extra calories from your delicious meal by taking a Christmas stroll along the Tampa Riverwalk to Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park.
The Tampa Marriott Waterside Hotel & Marina has been a key part of the growth in downtown Tampa and Channelside in the past few years. Now as part of Jeff Vinik's Water Street Tampa portfolio, the hotel will continue to be an engine for downtown growth in the years to come.
