We had Sunday lunch at Tallas on 8 August 2021. The restaurant has a new, lighter look inside as it has been recently redecorated, and the welcoming fireplace warmed up a cold winters day. The service was excellent. From the Sunday specials menu, I would recommend the oxtail served with mash or rice, and vegetables of the day. The burgers are delicious, but my favourite remains the hake and chips or salad. I went for the grilled hake option. Portions are very generous. Overall a very pleasant experience!
Tallas is super friendly. Perfect for family dinner out or a couples date night. Great food and friendly service.
Food very good. Value for money service fantastic.
Relaxed atmosphere, amazing food. I would recommended chocolate Brownie with Irish coffee for dessert, the best I have ever had!
Good food, but the quality of their Cape.Malay lamb curry not near what it used to be. Always went there for this dish as it was really good. Not anymore.
Had a good lunch and breakfast, service was fair the waiter handled too many tables, not much attention could be given to the seated guests. Food was excellent and enjoy the warm dinning experience.
Great food, excellent service. The only drawback was the irritating noisy motor bikes and cars that would come past and rev their engines. Otherwise I will be going there again in the future.
The pizza was good, but the service sloppy and unfriendly. The place has a nice feeling to it and seems to be popular among the locals. This is the first place to ever charge me for chilly and garlic with my pizza.
Very nice.. good food
Friendly staff, quick and efficient service and good food for good prices. Definitely worth taking a trip to visit their restaurant
What a wonderful surprise. Very welcoming. Simple but excellent food. Casual and friendly atmosphere. Magnificent food.
Wow! What a great place in Gordons bay, so warm and welcoming. We where served by the most friendliest waiter.We went to Tallas for my graduation dinner, and they surprised me with a complementary cake and made me feel so special!Their pizza is so good! Complements to the chef! We ate here 3 times and they did not disappoint!(Also they have a generator during loadshedding)
Reason for the one star, is that I only walk pass Tallas Tavern and haven’t visited the place yet. But on passing every time, it’s always busy. Hopefully one day I go sit down and enjoy what’s to offer.
Good food and good service, well priced too.
Really good fresh fish there, but service from staff was almost non existent. Had to keep going inside, asking for service, and it wasnt even that busy.....
Actually enjoyed the visit. Pizza was great, really thin base. Love where the tavern is situated. Great spot close to the beach front. Awesome vibe, draughts, affordable food and a decent menu with variety. Would definitely love to visit again. Friendly service and drinks and food was served quite fast.
Food excellent but long wait for it after ordering it.
Amazing place to see the Sunset and have dinner and share some drinks with friends. Great ambience... better than the Spur across the road. FAR better. Fire place in the winter time, and cosy feel, has one thinking that you could be in a pub in the countryside in England when inside, and the warm weather when on the outside, gives a feeling of being on the Med! No kidding. Food is also excellent and darn good value for money. Just to be clear ... Tallas did NOT pay me to write this review! (:-)
Enjoyed the food. Waiters were very friendly and assistive. Im definitely going back soon. 🤗❤️👍🏾👍🏾
Fabulous food. Fantastic view. Super friendly staff
Nice food. Great waiters and helpful. Great view if you sit outside.Only parking is a problem
Friendly staff. Breakfast was very good.
Ecellent service and food 5 stars
Tallas always gives you the best fish & chips and their pizzas are to die for.
Best place to eat in Gordonsbay!
Gordons Bay. What a lovely holiday destination. Tallas Tavern was a good find. Ocean views, good food and service. What more can you ask for?
Unfortunate experience at a place with an excellent waiter, Mikaela, and other staff members who were very friendly.Food was good and we planned to stay for a second meal as we catch up on remote work with our laptops.Unfortunately we did not stay longer the moment the manager on duty informed us of their mask policy that goes against the law.We are in challenging times. My partner and I are digital nomads who strive to actively support the tourism and hospitality sector right through South Africa on our current travels. We expect that these sectors do their part in creating and keeping a covid safe space by complying with the covid regulations.Sad that we wont return to Talla Tavern.I do not recommend this restaurant during the global pandemic, Covid-19.- Nitanja
Great little place in Gordons Bay sea/beachfront. Plenty parking, good value for money.
Very nice experience. Food was also really good 👍
Lovely place to relax with all friend on a hot summer evening. Food and service is champion.
Great pizza and great view. Menu adapted a bit due to lockdown, but still a good spot.
Ordered a pizza there which was the best pizza I ever had
It has the most delicious peri peri chicken livers and garlic bread. Waiters are very friendly.
Lovely well presented seafood,but couldnt understand paying R8 per extra slice of bread to scoop up the muscle garlic sauce?
Food was great and not as expensive as you would expect. Portions size were average (I had a breakfast). Staff were great and very friendly. I would recommend you sit inside, because the wind can be unpleasant and strong.
Great food and service! Id highly recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy good food with great friends and family
A quick stop for a light lunch whilst passing through. Friendly staff and yummy food. Views are beautiful aswell
Good service, good food.
Good people. Good food. Good price
Very good service, friendly staff excellent eisbein and steak
Delicious food and excellent service.
We had a lovely time at Tallas. Excellent friendly service. Good food. Nice atmosphere. Definitely worth another visit!
Excellent service and excellent food !
Dreadfully slow table service. We had to ask for our bill 3 times from 3 different waiters. After the bill was finally delivered we waited for the card machine in vain. When the card machine was never delivered, we opted to pay on our way out. We saw our waiter skulking around near the kitchen he saw us then put the card machine on a table and asked another waiter to put the transaction through........ This would have taken him 30 seconds... The other waiter was also apparently too busy. Eventually the barman was able to do the transaction.One of the waiters we asked our bill for did say they were busy. We were 1 of 2 occupied tables inside the restaurant. the outside tables were mostly full. Overall it was not busy at all, maybe understaffed. I am very unimpressed with this service failure
Good food,friendly service,great view. We have been going to tallas for years.
We have had breakfast here a few times and supper on Friday night. The food is sooo good and the staff are amazing
What a nice place to enjoy with family
Great food... awesome service
Ordered the combo of mussels (x6) , fried calamari, hake with half and half. The calamari was GRREAT! The mussels was tasty and the sauce that came with it delicious. Fish and rice was mediocre (needed some flavour) Potion size was generous for the price.Beers: SAB standard pricing.Service: Fast and efficientWe would go back for the calamari. (Remember your jacket)
Great location, food also great! Eisbein was also great!
Excellent oysters!!!. Great service. Keep it up.
Nice vibe, great drinks specials. Wide selection of food
Food amazing, cant ask for better. They can just work on there waiter service a bit. But overall very good.
Stopped for a breakfast and a coffee. Right next to the road with the beach right on the other side. We sat outside with the sun being out and it being a wind still day. Our waiter was on the ball and had our orders taken and food not arriving a lot later. The coffee was very nice and the breakfast also. This was an early morning visit and with Covid still around the restaurant was not very full. The bathrooms was clean and tidy. Overall a good experience.
Amazing food, great view, friendly staff. Definitely recommend!!
Ordered the seafood platter for one, and I could feed at least 3 people, huge portions and fresh, was very impressed!
Great location, good food and good service. Best place for a beachfront breakfast.
Only had coffee, no complaints.

First time Ive been to Tallas and the Burgers are amazing wow, the Bacon Cheese and Egg burger was nothing short of perfect 👌, Very nice place to go for a pub lunch.

Good food,service ok,a bit pricey
It was not the quality of food one was used to at Tallas some months ago.
Best lunch on a lazy Sunday
Loved this place. I love that it is pet friendly and you can sit inside and outside with your pet. I love the view on the outside. Its a really fancy, but affordable restaurant. I would love it even more if the restaurant had a kiddies menu. ❤
Could use less garlic in the food
