Your Complete Guide to Visiting Green Lemon: SoHo’s Ultimate High-Energy Mexican Destination

 


When that undeniable craving for fresh, Mexican-inspired street fare and a perfectly crafted margarita hits, there is only one place in Tampa that truly delivers both incredible flavor and an unmatched atmosphere: Green Lemon.

As we have covered before, Green Lemon is famous for its vibrant energy, engaging staff, and its cheeky motto, "I Didn't Call You, Tequila Did." It is not just a restaurant; it is a full-blown South Tampa experience. But to make the most of your visit, you need to know exactly how to plan your trip, when to go, and how to get in touch if you are bringing a crowd.

Whether you are organizing a massive weekend get-together, a corporate catering order, or just looking to grab a quick, flavor-packed lunch, here is your complete local’s guide to visiting Green Lemon.


Prime Real Estate: The Heart of SoHo

Location is everything, and Green Lemon sits right in the energetic epicenter of Tampa’s culinary scene.

Address: 915 S Howard Ave, Tampa, FL 33606

Located in the bustling South Howard (SoHo) district, Green Lemon is surrounded by the city's best nightlife and entertainment. It is incredibly accessible whether you are coming from downtown Tampa, Hyde Park, or hopping over the bridge from St. Pete.

Because it is situated on one of the most popular strips in the city, the restaurant naturally absorbs that lively, vibrant neighborhood energy, making it the perfect starting point for a night out or a vibrant midday escape.


When to Visit: Operating Hours for Every Craving

One of the best things about Green Lemon is its consistency. Whether you are craving a midday bowl or late-night tacos, their doors are open early and stay open late.

Here is a breakdown of their current operating hours:

  • Monday: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM

  • Tuesday: 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM

  • Wednesday: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM

  • Thursday: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM

  • Friday: 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM

  • Saturday: 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM

  • Sunday: 11:00 AM - 10:00 PM

The Local Hack: Notice those extended hours on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays? Green Lemon keeps the kitchen and the bar running until 11:00 PM on those nights. If you are looking for that peak, high-energy atmosphere where the music is loud and the margaritas are flowing, those late-night weekend (and Taco Tuesday!) windows are the absolute best time to grab a table.


Getting in Touch: Everyday Dining

Green Lemon prides itself on genuine connection, and that starts before you even walk through the door. If you need to ask about wait times, check on a specific menu item, or speak directly to the front-of-house staff, their team is incredibly responsive.

  • Main Restaurant Line: (813) 868-5463

Whether you are calling ahead to plan a seamless date night or just want to confirm their online ordering process for a quick takeout run, their engaging staff is always ready to help you coordinate the perfect meal.


Bringing the Fiesta to You: Dedicated Catering Support

We all know that Green Lemon is the ultimate destination for a great party, but what happens when you want to host the party yourself?

Unlike many restaurants that just route catering requests through their busy host stand, Green Lemon has a completely dedicated catering operation to ensure your event goes off without a hitch. Whether you are organizing a corporate luncheon, a massive birthday bash, or a family gathering, they provide the exact same fresh, high-quality street fare you love, perfectly packaged for a crowd.

There are two easy ways to lock in your catering order:

  1. The Catering Hotline: You can bypass the main restaurant line entirely and call their dedicated catering team directly at (813) 593-5247.

  2. Online Inquiry: If you prefer to handle things digitally, their website features a streamlined "Catering Inquiry" portal. You can easily click through, submit your event details, and have their team reach out to you with a customized plan.


The Verdict: See You in SoHo

Green Lemon has perfected the balance of incredible food, strong drinks, and seamless hospitality. By positioning themselves in the heart of SoHo and maintaining accessible hours seven days a week, they make it incredibly easy to elevate your dining routine.

Stop settling for boring dinners. Grab your friends, head over to 915 S Howard Ave, and let the Green Lemon team show you how a true Tampa fiesta is done!
