TAMPA, Fla. (March 9th, 2026) – This Easter,  The Westin Tampa Bay’s new waterfront restaurant, Palmette Brasserie and Bar, is transforming brunch into an all-out celebration. Easter by the Bay brings together an indulgent buffet, free-flowing drinks, live music, a visit from the Easter Bunny, and a dedicated dessert station all set against the breathtaking backdrop of Tampa Bay. From 10:00am to 2:00pm, guests will be treated to a lavish spread crafted by the Palmette culinary team, led by Executive Chef Saravanan Appadurai, showcasing the fresh, coastal-inspired flavors the restaurant has quickly become known for. 

Start at the Chilled Seafood Bar, where East Coast Oysters on the Half Shell, Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, and Ceviche with Citrus & Avocado set an elegant tone. From there, the spread unfolds across a show-stopping Carving Station featuring Slow-Roasted Prime Rib with Gouda Mashed Potatoes, Horseradish Cream, and Onion Jus, alongside an 

Action Station serving Blackened Local Grouper with Mango & Avocado Salsa and Citrus Remoulade. Hot entrées including Shrimp & Grits with Andouille Gravy, Mojo Marinated Pork Tenderloin with Sour Orange Glaze, and Bananas Foster Pancakes round out a menu that is equal parts indulgent and inventive.

A Spring Salad Bar, fresh fruit, and Granola Parfaits with Vanilla Honey Yogurt round out the lighter side of the spread, before the Dessert Station closes things out with Chocolate Truffles, Mini Cheesecakes, and Key Lime Pies.

Throughout the morning, unlimited mimosas and bloody marys will keep spirits high, while live music from 11:00am to 2:00pm fills the room with the warmth and energy that makes a holiday brunch truly unforgettable. For the little ones — and the young at heart — a special visit from the Easter Bunny will bring magical moments and photo memories the whole family will cherish.
