The Tavern at Cheval - Lutz, Florida

This is supposed to be our quaint little pizza joint that also serves other food. Last night we took our kids there to eat before the Christmas golf cart parade. After literally 25 minutes of waiting for a server, I ordered a slices of cheese for my 2 kids and wife. After 15 minutes, the server brought 3 literal slices of cheese. At first I thought he was being nice to my kids to have something to munch on while waiting for our pizza. After another 10 minutes, I let him know our pizza still never arrived. He said what pizza, you ordered cheese. Who the F would ordered actual cheese slices!!! I thought I was being punked. Since the parade was about to start we needed to leave vs waiting 20 more minutes for actual pizza so he gave me the bill. He charged me for cheese… I guess I need to be more clear at a restaurant that sells pizza to say 3 slices of cheese pizza for 3 slices of cheese. Imagine if I said I’ll take 3 slices of pepperoni… crazy. The smirk he had on his face made me think he did it on purpose since it was too busy to actually provide good service. I have been there numerous times and most times are pretty goods this one takes the cake of any experience I’ve ever had. The last time we were there the server argued that Nutella was just chocolate and didn’t have nuts. My daughter is highly allergic. We ordered pancakes with chocolate chips and instead got a side of Nutella. Definitely done with this place. Sad too since it’s in my neighborhood.

Where else do you get a Sunday brunch seafood buffet with fresh crab legs for 24$? Amazing experience, omelette bar, ahi tuna salad, and amazing crepes. The service is excellent. Beautiful view of the golf course and if you have kids, it’s a nice quick break/date when you use the childcare. Drinks are affordable and delicious. Great service. Honestly if you’re a member of the country club this is an amazing place to have to eat.

The Sunday brunch is SO good. I haven’t found a brunch this good in years. So many options, we’ve been coming every week!

We truly enjoy everything about The Tavern at Cheval!! Chef Gerry and his wife are so welcoming and gracious in their service. The food is always fresh and delicious 😋! We usually go for Sunday brunch, but also have enjoyed a burger, fries and a beer in the evening. The ambiance, food, service and atmosphere are all excellent!

Our second time at the Sunday brunch. Never disappoints! Omelets are tasty, entrees have great variety and flavor. The service is very exceptional and very friendly. Our weekend spot indeed!

Update: Third review! Sunday Brunch, yet again. (Are you sensing a theme yet?) The floor staff and bartender are always friendly, engaging, and helpful. Chef Gerry, you keep making one great buffet dish after another after another. This time, potato pancakes and lightly fried catfish. Excellent! Next review likely will be during karaoke night here.
