BRUNCH is here at Wesley chapel!! Tallo brunch did not miss. Get the avocado bruschetta the flavors go crazy together and it's honestly one of the best things on the menu. The chicken and waffles were also a Win. The chicken portion was a little small, but it was super juicy, crispy and packed with flavor. And the waffle? Straight up tasted like a funnel cake in the best way possible. 10/10 brunch spot. Definitely coming back. read more

I decided to come here on a Saturday night, and was surprised to see the place wasn't busy. My friend and I got a wine and a cocktail. Both were delicious. Dinner was mediocre at best. The calamari was good to start off with. Nice and light. However, my salmon was dry and the mashed potatoes had no seasoning. My friend got the pesto pasta, and said it lacked salt and overall flavor. The atmosphere was good. Unfortunately with being open kitchen concept I felt that it was a bit hot in there. We were ready to leave and cool off in the car. Hoping that brunch may be a better option. read more

Saw this place advertised on Instagram and saved it to try. Ended up coming for Sunday brunch. I was able to make a reservation on Toast, which was easy, for 11am. This was my first time using Toast. Typically I use OpenTable or Yelp but they were not available on there to make a reservation unfortunately. Parking was plentiful between the lot and street parallel parking. All the parking was free! Once seated, we were greeted by our fantastic server, Neli. She was absolutely amazing! Very personable & friendly! I ordered the More Cheese Flatbread and a side of Breakfast Potatoes. The More Cheese is a flatbread topped with garlic sauce, mozzarella, Gouda, white cheddar, parmesan, fried parsley, and crushed red pepper flakes. I asked for mine without red pepper flakes. For the Breakfast Potatoes, I questioned if they had peppers in them. Neli and the kitchen made sure they did not put them in. Both were absolutely delicious! The flatbread was perfectly cheesy, the crust was thin and not hard, and the fried parsley was a great addition! The Breakfast Potatoes were crispy and I loved the flaky sea salt on them! Ended up having enough for leftovers, which was my dinner that night and just as good at home as it was at the restaurant. Would definitely come back and recommend. read more

Went to Tallo for Saturday brunch, and everything was perfect. Made a 10:30a reservation and it was not too busy. The inside decor seems pretty upscale and a nice atmosphere. The service was warm and welcoming, and our server made us some tasty cappuccinos. We had the PR donuts to start which were pretty good and not too sweet. I ordered their Cuban sandwich and it was one of the best ones I've had. Tallo is a nice addition to Wesley Chapel and seems to be a hidden gem. Will return! read more

My friends and I chose Tallo Restaurant to celebrate a birthday, and it had been on our list for a while. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the exterior. Walking in, the space is beautiful. The lighting fixtures really stand out and give the restaurant a stylish, inviting ambiance. The staff was warm, attentive, and provided great service throughout the evening, which made the experience more enjoyable. I did enjoy both appetizers and dinner, but wasn't impressed by the drinks. I did notice wine tasting in the back room. Even though it's a bit of a drive for me, I would come back to check that out. There's plenty of parking, which is always a plus. read more

Great place in a Zephyrhills/Wesley Chapel area. It's relatively new and very beautiful inside. Definitely an upgrade to the area. I believe this is the only upscale place in the close proximity. Service was attentive and friendly. We had cod croquettes, vendura pasta and seafood risotto. Food was pretty good, flavorful and portions were decent. Croquettes were nice and filling, definitely could taste some cod. Seafood risotto was pretty good, had decent amount of the seafood. Vendura pasta was good but pretty heavy and it said that it will have pistachio but we couldn't taste it. To finish we ordered tea and cappuccino with oat milk, it wasn't a cappuccino and tasted really bad. It was just coffee with oatmilk and not a good quality coffee. So I wouldn't order a cappuccino from them., Other than that food was pretty good, but a bit pricey. read more

I recently visited Tallo with a reservation for three to celebrate a family birthday. Family had recommended we give it a try. The restaurant has a classy ambiance with great music, making it feel like a high-end destination. However, the noise level was so overwhelming that our party could barely communicate, which made the celebration feel a bit strained. We started with drinks and appetizers, but the experience was mixed. My smoked old fashioned lacked balance; other than the smoke, it tasted like straight bourbon and felt like a very small pour. We also ordered the calamari, which was priced at a premium but served in a very small portion and was significantly overcooked to a "burnt crispy" texture. On a positive note, the accompanying aioli and marinara sauces were excellent. For entrees, the churrasco and the fried yucca were the highlights of the night. However, the filet mignon was surprisingly chewy and difficult to cut--not what you'd expect from a $49 cut of meat. My seafood risotto tasted good, but the portion was small for the $34 price tag, containing only four mussels, three shrimp, and two scallops. There was no lobster to be found in the dish, as stipulated in the menu. When a restaurant positions its pricing alongside the higher-end competition, the execution and portions need to be comparable in every way. The location is a bit out of the way so I don't know if we will return. read more

Tallo has potential. This is after 2 visits. The ambiance is chic; you can tell time and energy was placed into the aesthetics. Probably one of the few "fancy looking restaurants" in the area. Great for celebrations. The drinks are delicious. The Sunshine Spritz was my fave, if you like drinks on the sweeter side. The watermelon basil is also good too. The potential is really working on elevating the flavors of the food and consistency. I had the seafood risotto my first time here and it was fantastic. I brought my mother after raving about it. They ran out of the risotto so we opted for the lemon chicken and the salmon and we were both not impressed. The salmon was too dry and lacked flavor. I took my leftovers home and never finished it. The chicken, as per my mother, was pretty basic, nothing to rave about. The calamari appetizer was delicious. So the inconsistency has me a bit concerned but if they can really hone in on their craft, they can remain a great staple in Wesley chapel. read more

What a great find! We have lived in the area and was not aware of this great place as it is tucked into a "strip mall" area with a lot of other cute shops and boutiques off the main road. We dropped in while having our dog groomed next door. Cute area and the inside is classy/elegant. We had lunch and enjoyed the burrata and steak sandwiches. Burrata was really good and they added peaches as well as the tomatoes with balsamic. Very flavorful! We are definitely coming back for dinner! read more

My fiancé and I stopped by here for dinner recently and overall had a really great experience. The atmosphere immediately stood out -- it's a really nice spot and definitely feels like the kind of place you'd bring someone for a relaxed date night. We started with the calamari and that was a great call. It came out very crispy and tasted really fresh, and the garlic aïoli that came with it was excellent. For the main dishes, I ordered the Chimi Burger which was very good and cooked perfectly. My fiancé got the steak sandwich and I have to say it was seriously impressive -- probably one of the better steak sandwiches I've tried. The only small thing that kept everything from being perfect was my fries. They were fine, just not quite as crispy as I usually like them. Nothing major, but worth mentioning. Aside from that small detail, the service was great, the atmosphere was awesome, and the food overall was really enjoyable. I'd definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nice dinner spot. read more

I came here for my birthday brunch with friends, I'd been wanting to try Tallo ever since I got the news that they were open. My expectations were blown out of the water. Our waitress was very sweet and the service itself was pretty quick. We ordered the smoked fish dip for a starter and it was so yummy! The dip paired with the baguette was perfect. I then ordered the Steak a Caballo (basically steak & eggs) for my entree. This is usually my go-to, and I have had several bad experiences recently, but I would come back solely for this dish! I ordered my steak Medium and it was grilled to perfection. The chimichurri was the perfect addition, and the eggs and rice were delicious as well. The restaurant itself provided a very elevated feel, the noise level was pretty quiet and it wasn't too crowded. I absolutely enjoyed my experience and will definitely make my way back. Bravo! read more

Tallo was the perfect choice for my granddaughter's graduation dinner. Tallo is a fairly new and welcomed addition to Wesley Chapel. The warm and eclectic vibe was absolutely beyond measure. The servers were extraordinary, pampering our guests. The appetizer menu looked most inviting but I declined because I wanted to save room for my entree which was Churrasco, medium-rare, with Aioli Potatoes and Asparagus with the Chimichurri on the side. And, of course, I started my culinary experience with a very nice Old Fashioned. Everyone in my group had a great time and I will definitely return to try some of the items that I eyeballed on the menu. read more

Tallo is one of those rare gems that feels like a secret worth keeping--nestled quietly off the beaten path, yet bursting with energy, warmth, and a soul you can taste in every bite. From the moment we stepped inside, we were wrapped up in the upscale vibe that whispers, "You're in for something special." The Churasco Steak was a masterpiece--perfectly grilled with a juicy, rich crust that sealed in all the flavor and was almost outperformed by the house-made chimichurri, which added a bright, herbaceous and citrusy zing. Every bite was decadent, savory and layered with intention. The Caribbean Salad is a unique combination. Vibrant and fresh, it's topped with plantains and fried cheese. I added grilled salmon to the side, and they didn't skimp on the portion size. The calamari? Delicately crispy, not greasy, and perfectly seasoned. It came with a homemade remoulade dipping sauce that had just the right kick--elevating a classic appetizer into something unexpectedly addictive. The Puerto Rican Sweet Bread was soft and warm, with a slightly sweet, buttery flavor that melts in your mouth. In an era where terrible customer service has become the norm, Tallo really outshines them all! The service was nothing short of impeccable. Our server, Brian (with an I), had the kind of attentiveness I rarely see anymore. He was never intrusive and was always a step ahead. He anticipated needs, noticed preferences and moved like someone who genuinely loves what he does. The manager, Elsie, is the quiet engine of it all. Her presence was felt in the way things flowed, the way the team clicked, and the way every table seemed to be getting five-star treatment without fanfare. She checked in just enough to let us know we were truly welcome. But the moment that really sealed the night? When the chef himself emerged from the kitchen--not just to say hello, but to personally bring my friend a container of the chimichurri sauce to take home for his birthday. No fuss, no theatrics, just a heartfelt gesture that meant everything. read more

I had dinner with a group for my friend's birthday and was immediately impressed by the decor when I walked in. I ordered a watermelon mocktail which was SO good, sweet and refreshing. For the meal, I got the cod entree with garlic broccoli. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture of the cod entree when I received it so the attached picture is half eaten. The cod was beautifully placed and was pretty tasty with the avocado and tomato tucked in. For the most part, everyone enjoyed their food. The steak sandwich wasn't a hit and the burger was so-so based on the group's feedback. Our server was really nice and did well overall. The only downside was that the food didn't all come out at once and it took some time to get the second half of meals. If I were in the area again, I would try another dish. read more

Wow. Food that is seasoned to perfection and so full of amazing flavor!! The prosciutto and spinach flatbread has a combo of flavors that will make your tastebuds dance. The churrasco steak was cooked beautifully. It was so tasty that I almost didn't want to use the chimichuri sauce that came with it. Even the asparagus on my plate had great flavor. The drinks were fantastic, the dessert was delicious, and our server was attentive and friendly. I can't wait to go back and try more. read more

So I visited this restaurants for a friend's birthday celebration that I added onto my reservation when booking online and I was kind of surprised this was not acknowledged whatsoever by host or waitstaff. We visited for lunch on Saturday afternoon and were quickly seated. The restaurant itself is absolutely stunning! Aside from the restaurant being beautiful I feel like they really need to work on the menu and fix some issues and inconsistencies. One thing I did not like is that it's 1 menu for lunch/dinner so if you are looking for something lighter their isn't too many options. I hope in the future they offer a lunch menu and dinner menu. We had a very sweet waitress but she did not seem knowledgeable about the food options on the menu so when we asked questions she really didn't know what to tell us nor did she offer to go ask the chef how the dish was prepared. Another negative is we ordered the same appetizer twice (Short Rib Dumpling) because we enjoyed it so much and the presentation was completely different which was off putting. There should be consistency amongst the dishes. Their Parmesan fries were very basic and by basic I mean they just sprinkled some Parmesan cheese sparsely on them. The portion size on the calamari was very small it was a bowl and only half of it had calamari. Aside from these discrepancies we really did enjoy the dessert we tried (Quesitos) which was almost like a deconstructed guava and cheese pastry and our drink which was the Sunshine Spritz - the drink wasn't overly sweet which I really enjoyed! Overall I did enjoy some of the items we tried but they need to work out some of these issues they having going on. read more

From the moment we walked in, it was an experience. My husband and I came for dinner first -- the churrasco was absolutely amazing, and my husband had the Chimi burger and said it was the best he's ever had. I came back again with my girls for brunch and whew... chef's kiss. Since this spot is basically in our backyard, we'll definitely be regulars. Thank you for bringing a restaurant of this quality to our side of town. Shoutout to the servers too -- super friendly and helpful when walking us through the menu.

Social media tricked us! We've been following Tallo for months. Never was able to visit Tallo because its in Wesley Chapel. Honestly, what is in Wesley Chapel? Mostly, nothing. Anyways, several reasons why I gave Tallo a one star: *Came to celebrate my friends birthday, no acknowledgment of her birthday by the server and no dessert offered. *One of my friends ordered the surf and turf. When it arrived looked more like turf and no surf. He sent it back because its not worth the money for the amount of food you get. *The manager came over to tell my friend that the restaurant deducts the food a customer sends back from the servers pay! We were shocked and looked at each other mortified. *Food serving inconsistencies. Most of us got Churrusco steak, they were all 3 different sizes. 2 out of the 3 were small portions. *The side of Yucca had too much olive oil in them. They were drenched! *The server never refilled our water unless we asked, didn't tell us anything about the specials of the day, we had to ask, the instagrammable drinks took forever to receive. For the amount of people in the restaurant, there should have been 2 bartenders, but only 1 was present. *Asian Pig Wings, not great. I was expecting fall of the bone. I was afraid the bone was going to go flying, when I attempted to cut the meat off the bone with the knife. We won't be back. Also, Tallo is very far off the beaten path from civilization from those who are not local to Wesley Chapel. We thought it was close to Krates or the highway. read more

Went for our anniversary mid week on a very cold night and yet a nice crowd. The decor is very very nice. Love the open kitchen. We started with the pumpkin soup which was excellent. Ordered the Puerto Rican bread which was warm and delicious. It came with compost butter. That evening the bread was Sobao (which means sweet bread) . I had the chirrasco with rice and tostones. The steak was cooked perfectly and loved the chimichurri. The tostones were perfectly crispy. The white rice was not my favorite but that's a taste thing. My wife had the lemon chicken with mamposteao rice (which is yellow rice with beans cooked in it with chorizo) , fried yuca and garlic broccolini. It was excellent . A great meal. Next time I want the chimi burger. Then came dessert; after listening to choices I went for the Tres Leches after she explained how they make it. They put the slice of cake in middle of plate then fill the bottom of the plate with tres leches. It was heaven. We loved the whole evening including the great service and the very nice owner who came to chat. We can't wait to return. read more

This restaurant is quite amazing, from its decor to its dishes. The service is amazing too. It was my first time coming to this restaurant and they earned my 5 star rating. I have to say there is plenty of parking, the restaurant is beautiful inside with exquisite chandelier throughout the restaurant. Their bar stools in the bar area gave a unique look. I would say it has a very chic ambiance. We sat in the bar and We ordered Cod croquettes delicious, then we proceeded to order our main dish, we enjoyed chicken with some broccolini, and yuca fries . The next dish was some cod fish with avocado and white rice and tostones, we paired it with some red beans on the side. Everything was delicious and tasty. We will definitely be back with our immediate family to enjoy some delicious dishes. Thank you for your service. read more

Tallo is a great local restaurant to add to the neighborhood serving American/Caribbean fusion cuisine. The executive chef is Puerto Rican and did an outstanding job. This place is a vibe. Beautifully decorated and has a great ambiance. Drinks were A+. We seen other tables with the fancy smoky drink but the pina colada was great! As far as the food, the bruschetta was different but very good adding platano and avocado. The sobao bread with a hint of that sweetness was just delish. Main entree I had the churrasco and it was cooked perfectly with that chimmchurri. The garlic potatoes were delicious and veggies. They have a few rooms within rooms that can accommodate larger parties. I would think Reservations are the way to go on weekends. read more

My cousin and I decided to check out this new spot in Wesley Chapel that seems to serve a Caribbean fusion mix of food. The actual inside of the restaurant is very nice and aesthetically pleasing ! Our server Joselyn was attentive and timely and appreciated her as a server. Overall, as far the food and drinks went, everything felt a little average, which is unfortunate considering how the menu is a little overpriced. I don't remember the name of the drinks we ordered, but I got a watermelon drink & it was fine ! Neither drinks that we ordered was anything to rave over, or that we cared to order another round of. My cousin and I both agreed our favorite thing out of the 4 food items we ordered was surprisingly the Cod Croquettes ! The Asian Pig Wings were dry, as was the Churrasco which we requested to be cooked medium. The chimmichuri that came with the Churrasco was also a little bland compared to the others we've had. I personally enjoyed the black surf and turf with the roasted potatoes and veggies. The steak with the surf and turf was cooked perfectly & the lobster with the sauce coated underneath added flavor. My cousin personally did not care for the potatoes or either entree. Giving grace since they are a new restaurant, but about three food items we were interested in on the menu were not available because they ran out ! The three items that weren't available that we wanted to try was the short rib dumplings, tres leches, & chocolate sensation. So we decided to opt out of dessert and get that elsewhere after dinner. Considering the location is only 10 minutes from me I am interested in going again, mainly due to convenience. The ambiance gives a cool spot vibe to just sit at the bar and have some drinks and apps. I will likely be returning to try out the bar experience next time around ! read more

We had fantastic food and decent drinks. Cute atmosphere. But the night we went our service was not good. Will try again, maybe off night.

If you go to the bar, you will be guaranteed a five star service. Ask for Michaela or Jess and they will make your night. Sit anywhere else in the restaurant and the service is not guaranteed. If it was not for Jess or Michaela, I would definitely be giving a one star. This restaurant opened up about a month ago and it looks beautiful inside. However, front of house management needs to change already. Unfortunately, there are some hiccups that were had during our visit. We were unable to make reservations because they did not block off walk-in tables as they usually do for this particular night and the restaurant was fully "booked". We were told to enjoy the bar as we waited for a table to open up, and once a table got up, we would be able to be seated. We waited at the bar for about 30-45 minutes and watched the entire restaurant still remain empty. Once the particular table got up that we were told to wait on was cleaned we were greeted by the general manager, who had promised us that we could sit down And she then told us that unfortunately we cannot sit at the table that we were guaranteed any longer, and we needed to remain at the bar. I already had a conversation with the host and the manager that unfortunately I've been having and experiencing really bad back pain, and their bar is not the most comfortable to sit at as their chairs are very low and their bar stands very high. I was very upset and we wanted to check out and pay for our drinks that we have ordered after waiting for 45 minutes. I'm so grateful that Makayla, the bar manager came to greet us and talked to the general manager behind our back so we were able to get a table near the bar and Michaela was able to continue to serve us. Michaela really went out of her way to make sure that we had a grand time, we're comfortable, and service was spectacular! The calamari was awesome! I definitely recommend This. The risotto was a bit bland, but they were able to give me crushed red pepper on the side to spice things up a bit. And their homemade fries are phenomenal! They have a really good selection on drinks. Once again, if you're looking for service, please ask for one of the bartenders and sit near the bar. If you're looking for accommodations in anyway, or to be greeted as a guest and feel welcomed with open arms, stay away from general management. read more

First time here. Noted it was my husband's birthday on the reservation and we were greeted with a very nice happy birthday! Ordered a dirty martini and they do not carry blue cheese olives, which - bummer but whatever. Super weak and watered down! Not okay. Out of the days fish special; Snapper, also a bummer. Asked for a better description of the Cod Tower and didn't get an accurate description. The fish is shredded and spiced up like Tuna. Not what I expected. It wasn't terrible, or I would have sent it back, but not very good. Definitely wouldn't order again. Husband got the steak sandwich which he very much enjoyed. He didn't get a cocktail. Since it was his birthday we decided to split a dessert, but I was disappointed that they didn't do anything but wish him a happy birthday upon entering the establishment. ( such as a scoop of ice cream with a candle or something). Not in any hurry to come back. read more
