Kiya's Cafe, Tampa FL

Always make sure to stop by for lunch on Friday’s. This plate is as good as it looks. Check them out for soul food on Sundays & be sure to follow their instagram for open hours!

I saw this place on social media and I had to stop by and try their breakfast. The food was so good! The fish was seasoned to perfection and flaky. Would definitely come back again

The salmon bites, mac & cheese, yellow rice, mashed potatoes & lemonade was 10/10. Definitely swing by this spot!

10/10 everything is good! I loveeee the fried chicken. Taste like grandma house. Chef Tim is truly one of a kind. If you’re ever in the area, pull up!

Great service, great food. Feels like family on sundays. Best soul food in the city. Mac & cheese is to die for

I had high hopes for this. The food looked great though I waited 80 mins to get my food. It wasn’t worth the wait. By the time I made it home with my food the mac and cheese was sour. Also I was there at the time of opening and still had to wait that long. So no prep was done. I love the idea behind this but for the 25 min drive, it isn’t for me. But try it out for yourself and decide.

Closed on Thursday lunchtime. Attempted to call phone number and nothing to indicate that this was an actual restaurant. Small building. Do not recommend coming here.

We got there pretty soon after opening & it was busy already. We ordered the stuffed truffle Mac n cheese turkey leg & shrimp Alfredo turkey leg. With the mango lemonade & blue lemonade. Everything was delicious! Some parts salty as ab tho but still delicious, make sure to try the lemonades & buy xtra to go cause we finished them before leaving. Super friendly & nice vibe

The food was DEFINITELY GOOD and Very Kind cashier…The Chef even came out to see how we liked it and LIKE THE FOOD WE DID. More attention needs to be paid to cleaning tables and bathroom…. It is a very small establishment, we ate in and the temperature of the room was a little uncomfortable. If the quality of the food stays as is, I could see them growing into a larger space. THE FOOD WAS A GOOD TIME

First time I tried this place it was good ; went back last Sunday and it was not it at all: (the blue drink was way toooo sweet even a older lady I believe his mom was telling him. The yellow rice was okay more, Mac and cheese looked like it was sitting all day as the cheese was clumped together, collard greens was a little to salty ; only thing that was a hit was the chicken wings cause they was made fresh, also added way to much parsley. I don’t know if I’ll give them another try as I was very disappointed and was really looking forward to soul food Sunday waited so long for my I almost asked for a refund which I felt I should have because it wasn’t worth the wait: (

Have you heard of the new it spot in Tampa?

Look no further than Kiya's café. It is a one of a kind experience. Although the restaurant itself is newer, the food is top-tier. I have been back several times to try different dishes, and have yet to be disappointed. From the fried salmon to the oxtails, everything has been a 10. Be prepared to experience a bit of a wait, but just know that the wait is worth it. Everything is superb and the serving size is plentiful. Plates range from $20+. Although you may think it's pricey, the serving size alone makes it worth it. You will not be disappointed by trying out Kiya's cuisine. The service was nice and the Ambience was one of a kind. From R&B music to the latest hits, you can expect to experience a vibe like no other. I try to capture pictures with the food was so good that I forgot at first.

I literally fell in love with the hospitality of this place! I’m a vegetarian and I left 1000% satisfied! Would recommend 10/10

The mac & cheese is literally some of best I’ve ever had! The service is immaculate & the vibes are unmatched

Kiya’s Cafe has INCREDIBLE food! This new restaurant is the new hotspot of the city without question!
