Palmette Brasserie and Bar at The Westin Tampa Bay Celebrates Dad in Style This Father’s Day
From Shaved Prime Sandwiches and Smoked Old-Fashioneds at Lunch to Bourbon Braised Short Ribs and Cabernet at Dinner, Palmette Rolls Out Exclusive Father’s Day Offers
TAMPA, Fla. (June 2nd, 2026) – Palmette Brasserie and Bar, the new signature waterfront restaurant at The Westin Tampa Bay, invites families to raise a glass and celebrate Dad this Father’s Day with two exclusive offers. Whether treating Dad to a leisurely midday meal or a festive evening out, Palmette’s Father’s Day offerings pair bold, Florida-forward flavors with expertly crafted cocktails all set against the stunning backdrop of Tampa Bay.
Start Dad’s day right with a hearty, flavor-packed lunch. Palmette’s Father’s Day lunch centers on the Shaved Prime Sandwich, tender prime beef piled high with caramelized bourbon onions, smoked gouda spread, and zesty horseradish aioli, served alongside indulgent truffle fries. Dad’s choice of a refreshing local craft beer or a sophisticated Smoked Old Fashioned rounds out the meal.
The Father’s Day lunch menu is available alongside Palmette’s regular lunch offerings, which include standouts like the Blackened Grouper Sandwich with mango remoulade and pickled onions on brioche, the Mojo-Marinated Steak Frites with an 8oz butcher’s cut and shallot butter, and a rotating selection of Brasserie Pizzas, from the classic Margherita to the crowd-favorite Cuban with pulled pork, crispy bacon, dill pickles, and mustard aioli. Lighter options like the Tuna Niçoise Salad and Florida Citrus Shrimp Ceviche round out a menu built for lingering.
As the sun dips over Tampa Bay, treat Dad to a dinner as bold and distinguished as he is. Palmette’s Father’s Day dinner showcases Bourbon Braised Short Ribs, slow-braised to fall-off-the-bone perfection and plated alongside velvety boniato mashed potatoes, chili and honey glazed baby carrots, and finished with crispy shallots. Each dinner includes one glass of a Smoked Old Fashioned or a rich Cabernet.
Guests can also explore Palmette’s full dinner menu, which features dishes like the Espelette and Herb Dusted Grouper with carrot purée, haricot verts, and blood orange gastrique, the 16oz Ribeye with charred broccolini, red wine sauce, and chimichurri, and the Oven-Roasted Half Chicken with al pastor sauce and corn esquites. Dinner starters worth noting include the Ahi Tuna Crudo with Florida strawberry, avocado, and pistachio, and the PEI Mussels with white wine, toasted garlic, and saffron. To finish, don’t miss the Bananas Foster Cheesecake with Siesta Key rum sauce or the Key Lime Pie with berry coulis.
Father’s Day at Palmette is just one more reason to spend the day at The Westin Tampa Bay, which recently completed a multi-million dollar, full-property transformation that has redefined the bayfront experience. Newly redesigned guest rooms feature light, coastal-inspired palettes, floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping bay views, and luxury bedding. This summer, the hotel’s highly anticipated resort-style pool opens to guests. The new poolscape features tropical landscaping, a cascading waterfall, ambient music, and craft cocktails served poolside, making it the ultimate warm-weather escape right on Tampa Bay. The property also boasts 10,000 square feet of modernized event and meeting space and a state-of-the-art fitness center, all managed under the wellness-driven hospitality the Westin brand is known for.
This Father’s Day, The Westin Tampa Bay and Palmette Brasserie and Bar offer everything Dad could want: exceptional food, handcrafted drinks, breathtaking waterfront views, and a hotel that’s never looked better. Whether it’s a family lunch by the bay, a sunset dinner with a perfectly poured cocktail, or an overnight stay to experience the newly unveiled pool, there’s no better place in Tampa to show Dad just how celebrated he is.
