About The Dan
The Dan is a practical downtown Tampa pick for a date, birthday, or small business meal when atmosphere matters and the group does not need a highly documented tasting-menu experience. Cross-shop Ebbe for a higher-end contemporary dinner, Supernatural Food & Wine for lower-price casual value, CW's Gin Joint for drinks-first plans.
The Dan is a Tampa venue with publicly verified hours and a smart casual dress code. Because the verified details are limited, the safest way to use this guide is as a practical planning note rather than as a claim about cuisine, price, service format, awards, or a specific dining style.
The Dan is in Tampa and is open daily from 11 AM. Closing is 10 PM from Sunday through Thursday and 11 PM on Friday and Saturday, which gives later-week plans a longer window. For anything beyond hours and dress code, confirm directly with the venue before making plans.
A Tampa option with limited verified public detail
Clearest confirmed facts are direct: The Dan keeps daily hours and lists a smart casual dress code. That makes it easier to plan timing and attire, but it does not verify details such as menu format, seating style, private dining, chef background, awards, price, or specific services.
If you are planning for a group, a special occasion, or a time-sensitive meal, the practical move is to confirm current availability and any seating needs directly with The Dan. Friday and Saturday have the latest verified closing time, while the rest of the week closes at 10 PM.
Who should cross-shop before choosing
If you are comparing options before deciding, Ebbe and Supernatural Food & Wine are natural names to consider alongside The Dan. CW's Gin Joint, Sal Rosa, Tampa Burgers and Pirates are also comparison points for choosing among different plans.
Use The Dan when the verified hours and smart casual dress code fit your plans. Choose another option when you need confirmed details about cuisine, price, seating format, or a specific dining experience before committing.

How The Dan compares in Tampa
Choose The Dan when the priority is a downtown, occasion-friendly meal with enough energy for a date, birthday, or small group dinner. Ebbe is the clearer splurge: its contemporary format and $$$$ price tier make it better for diners who want a more defined high-end experience. The Dan is the more flexible call when the night needs to feel polished without committing to that level of spend.
For value, Supernatural Food & Wine has the stronger case because its American format and $ price tier make the tradeoff obvious. Pick it for a casual meal where price matters. For drinks-led plans, CW's Gin Joint is the more direct alternative, while Sal Rosa and Tampa Burgers and Pirates are better considered when the group wants a simpler, less formal night out.
