Several miles north of Carrollwood you'll find a new seafood restaurant that does it right. We're talking fresh fish. And let's not overlook the party-happy crew of campers who keep the sleek, blue-lit bar jumpin' till the wee hours. Dress up just a little and let the efficient servers do the rest. Order crab cakes to start, try the oak-grilled fresh fish of the day and finish with a cup of coffee. Who knew Lutz had a cosmopolitan side?
Splash! An Ocean Grill, 3973 Van Dyke Road, Lutz, 813-269-8611.
