Restaurant Description

Part of a family of restaurateurs dating back to 1945 when his immigrant parents opened their first restaurant, Malio Lavarone opened the original Malio's Steakhouse on South Dale Mabry in 1969. A favorite of locals as well as sports celebrities and political figures, the restaurant became a South Tampa Landmark for over 35 years. Now a third generation, Malio's son Derek, continues the tradition.

Opening in 2007, with exclusive views of the waterfront and University of Tampa, Malio's Prime Steakhouse offers the same superior quality food, service and atmosphere that earned the original Malio's Steakhouse its reputation.

Celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying a night out? Malio's Prime is the place.

We look forward to providing you a memorable dining experience at Tampa's newest and oldest premiere family-owned steakhouse. Welcome to our family. Hospitality is our Heritage.

Overall this was a great place to go at least once. Food was excellant. Price was a bit higher than expected. However, we were disappointed it had NOTHING the same on the menu as the old one on Dale Mabry. And for that reason the name shouldn't be the same. This a great steak place with wonderful service!

We really ate some great grub at this place in Ybor City. You'de think by looking at it that it would be bar food. That's what we were prepared to eat. Next thing we know we were eating tuna escovitch, coquille st jaques and a snapper mojito that yo ...

This was more of a overpriced sports bar/resturant.Very limited menu dinner choices. Even with coupon would not go back.
