Jackson’s Bistro is one of the only of its kind in Tampa. Because it is locally owned and independently managed, Jackson’s keeps up with the demands of an ever-evolving Tampa and delivers tremendous value that Guests’ demand.

The 20,000 square foot restaurant boasts multiple options for private dining and a perfect setting for your special event needs all while guests enjoy the magnificent sunset over Tampa Bay. With a recently refurbished Waterfront Room, Jackson’s is a prime location for the upcoming holidays.

The team of owner’s, Greg Stinson and Jack Campbell, created Jackson’s concept and development. Their combined 60 years of experience in the food, beverage and entertainment industry has enabled them to develop and blend the hottest concepts under one roof: special event, corporate and private dining, bistro dining, sushi, and nightlife entertainment. They feel that Harbour Island is the most ideal location for their concept because of its waterfront location, the growth of downtown Tampa and market appeal. The overall design of the restaurant and nightclub is an open air, upscale but casual feel– and the trend continues fourteen years later.
