Talavera Cocina Mexicana

A very good friend of ours recommended Talavera as she comes here often. We were greeted nicely by the hostess by the front entrance and we decided to sit indoors to get a feel for the ambiance which was definitely very nice and beautifully decorated. The place was full with the lunch crowd and they all seemed happy. The music was loud but it was soothing music. The outdoor seating is in the Giralda Plaza next to the restaurant and looked very inviting. Next time! Our server was Ana and she was attentive and helpful.

Yesterday was my third time visiting Talavera Cocina Mexicana for dinner. Service: The service from our waitress was fantastic. She consistently checked on our table and made sure everything was going well. The only issue was the wait time for the food. It took about an hour to arrive, which is honestly unacceptable.

Such a nice place to dine in and have really good food. A lot of variety in the menu. The atmosphere really nice and the staff very friendly and polite. The gave us many suggestions and we knew they really know what they have. It’s good to go with family or friends and have a nice dinner night with moderate noise. Paid street parking or valet.

Had a great experience at Talavera with the service, atmosphere and most importantly the food! I was impressed and happy to see that they had added a whole vegetarian section to their menu that not only looked good but were delicious plus they were very accommodating in changing out one of the meals with the vegetarian beans for me. Prices were decent and loved the taco chips and dips we were offered upon being seated. Will definitely be back!

Jose our server was amazing, food was top notch, we got the shortrib to share and it was nothing short of amazing! It will feed 2-3 people easily especially if you have a couple appetizers.
