Fleming’s opens new flagship restaurant in Tampa (PHOTOS)

The Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar has opened its new 13,000 square foot Tampa flagship restaurant design, which blends its California roots with its coastal home, in Tampa.

The new location has a glass wine vault that houses 2,500 bottles. It is situated at the center of the restaurant, behind the new Rooted Wine Bar by Fleming’s.

Several new menus feature items curated by Chef Partner Brandon Grady, who has been with Fleming’s for more than 10 years. Items include an A5 Japanese Wagyu, Australian Wagyu with a tableside Shaved Black Truffle, Gorgonzola Gnocchi, local Gulf Grouper and fresh Bedford Scallops.

The new Tampa location will introduce Rooted Wine Bar by Fleming’s, which offers an elevated wine pairing menu, customizable wine flights and guided wine tastings, hosted by an expert Wine Steward.

The Flagship leadership team consists of Chef Brandon Grady and longtime Operating Partner Jorge Diaz, who began his restaurant career with Fleming’s, in 2006, following his time as an offensive lineman for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

As a part of its grand opening, Fleming’s will donate $10,000 to Big Brothers Big Sisters.

The new Fleming’s, located at 4342 West Boy Scout Blvd., is across from International Plaza and adjacent to the current location.
