MAD DOGS AND ENGLISHMEN – Restaurant

A slice of London on South MacDill Avenue in Tampa, at number 4914, with a fireplace room people book by name and a bar that takes its pints seriously enough to teach a class in pouring them. The kitchen plays it straight and plays it well: fish and chips in a light batter, shepherd's pie, bangers and mash, chicken tikka masala, a chicken paillard, sticky toffee to finish. Blue cheese fondue and a warm pretzel start most tables. Guests keep mentioning the room — dark, detailed, convincing. Open late, warm all year, and worth a reservation.
