With many award-winning restaurants in the Tampa Bay area, the Michelin star is one of the most prestigious to win. In fact, no restaurant in the Tampa Bay area has ever won. This year, several are nominated, one of which is Ponte in Tampa’s Midtown. The restaurant, owned by Chef Chris Ponte, is a follow to the iconic Café Ponte in Clearwater which closed in 2020 after an 18-year run. Ponte is also known for Tampa restaurants, Olivia, On Swann and Bare-Naked Kitchen.
