On Swann is the overall favorite, I've made a reservation for 8 at 8:30pm (it was earliest I could make one for).
See you all on Friday night May 19

Very good, thanks
Per post #1 , On Swann it is for Friday evening.
FYI to yourself & anyone else thinking of attending. Demand is high at On Swann, ESPECIALLY on a weekend night, the only time slot I was able to get for a table of 8 is 8:30pm. As you can imagine, it is up to the restaurant if they will expand the reservation to accept more people or not. So please let me know as soon as you are 100%
Conversely if there is someone who has confirmed and can't make it, please advise asap.
Thanks

I'll have a rental car and I'll be staying at the HGI by the airport. If anyone needs a ride let me know.

I won't be able to make it. I have an early flight out of TPA in the morning, and the timing for dinner Friday just won't work.
I'm sure you'll have a great time!

appreciate the heads up, hopefully next time I likely could use a ride from TPA to the restaurant. I'll PM you my flight details to see if our times match up, thanks for offering.

Looking forward to tomorrow evening. I land at TPA around 2:30pm, if anybody is around. Will likely head to the hotel shortly after.

For all attending, my flight got diverted to MCO due to storms over TPA. The dinner is still on, I just will be late. Three attendees have the reservation info.
