Actually, they just closed down Vinyl Fever a few weeks ago, so now its down to 2 :/
There's a good amount of food over here thats good. There's some killer sushi places, such as Cafe Japon over in central Tampa at International Plaza. Some good fast food thats only in and based in Tampa is a place called EVOS, which is near the USF area, behind Mojo Music and Books. I've always heard that Lee Roy Selmon's is a really great place for steak and other grilled foods but I've never been. Its kind of a broad thing, but if you're into any particular type of food, I can throw stuff at ya.
Also, Ybor City has a lot of great pizza, gyro, and sandwich shops.

Thank you, ink. We ended up hitting ybor city where we sat outdoors and enjoyed a cigar and a cuban sandwich. I wish we could have caught the flamenco dancing, but oh well, next time.

Not sure if you already left Tampa but I suddenly remembered eating at the Hard Rock Cafe 5223 N. Orient Rd., Tampa, FL 33601. I only recommend this because it was a nicer one than all the others I've ever been to in the world. Actually got a shirt from there, which I never thought would happen - normally I don't care for chain restaurants but their steaks are fantastic. I pretty sure this is the location shaped as a guitar from above. Sweet!
