Renowned chef John Fraser and his culinary team made a splash with the highly anticipated 2022 opening of Lilac, the signature restaurant inside The Tampa EDITION. Fraser presents his plant-forward, Mediterranean-style flavors (which pays homage to his Greek roots) in a warm, inviting, intimate space enveloped in golds, creams and soft lighting, with walnut floors and tables. It’s exquisitely accentuated with pops of emerald-green velvet on plush seats and banquettes amid lots of lush greenery.
While flavorful dishes take the spotlight, the drinks also get their star turn. Amy Racine — one of the youngest females to pass the notoriously difficult Court of Master Sommeliers Advanced Exam in her first pass — oversees Lilac’s cocktail and wine program. Don’t miss the wine and champagne list — ranging from sparkling Rhone to Dom Pérignon — or the champagne cocktail cart that will roll over to your table to offer effervescent pours.
