Food. Flavors. People. Style.

Inspired by her flavorful travels, Candy DeBartolo set out to bring something different to North Tampa’s food scene: a dining destination where everything that happens around the table is considered sacred—a place where every detail matters. Together with her team of passionate experts, she opened Sacred Pepper to provide the community with new twists on classic favorites in an inviting atmosphere. Locally sourced ingredients and made-from-scratch pastas and sauces highlight a Contemporary American menu with dashes of Mediterranean flair. Cocktails are inspired by cultures from around the world as well as modern, traditional, and pre-prohibition tastes.

    For my dinner at Sacred Pepper last night i decided to try the Crab Cakes ( jumbo lump blue crab, fresh corn salsa, lemon herb aioli} and I'm so glad I did because they were delicious and flavorful. It's a shareable plate but I turned it into an entree with 2 sides (cheese bacon grits & the veggie medley). It was a very fulfilling and enjoyable dinner complimented with a glass of their fine wine selections. The service at Sacred Pepper is always "impeccable" which makes your dining experience that much more memorable and enjoyable.

    Very enjoyable and relaxing dinner tonight at Sacred Pepper. My server "Adam" made sure everything was perfect as he always does! After an "Excellent" glass of their fine wine, I started with the Brussels Sprouts which are the best I've had and plenty to share. For my dinner I had the tenderloin steak bites as an entree and it comes with 2 sides. The steak was cooked perfectly and it was also very tender and flavorful. Tonight was Nolan's last night and he is an amazing busser I have known for 9 months. He graduates from college next month and I wish him the best in his future endeavors. Sacred Pepper is my favorite restaurant for "excellent" fine wine & drink choices. " Delicious & Flavorful" food selections, and the "Best" service staff that work so well together to make you have an very special & memorable dining experience.

    This was my first time dining at Sacred Pepper. What a lovely restaurant! My husband and I chose to eat in the bar area because I am not a fan of 2 x 2 tables. I feel like I am dining with other couples when seated that close:-) The bar area is beautiful with comfortable high top tables. We shared a couple of specials, and loved it all. So happy to find a new dining treasure.
