Wanted the reincarnation of this restaurant to be better. Interior redone very nicely, though booming DJ music created a very noisy vibe. Sat outside to avoid. Waiter put order in for app and entrees at same time resulting in an overloaded table and rushed experience. Snapper overcooked and hard. Ceviche good and plentiful. Craft cocktail tamarind margarita good.

We asked for items advertised on their Yelp and IG accounts and the waiter said it was recently changed and most of what they show is not what they served. The food was over cooked and overly salty. We got the mahi mahi tacos and carne asada steak. Both which our waiter highly recommended. The music from the outdoor sports bar was blasting rock music which was really load and offensive for a nice dinner out. Our waiter left for long periods of time and it was not the experience we had hoped for. I will not be going back or ever recommending it to anyone.

Amazing, upscale Mexican food. We have the beef tacos nearly every time but we also enjoy the snapper and carnitas. The guacamole is delicious but they serve it with small, warm tortillas and they didn’t give us enough. Service wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good. Definitely could’ve been checked on so we didn’t stare at our remaining guacamole. Service is slow.

Restaurant has been completely renovated since I visited it last . The service initially was very slow and fortunately picked up , the menu was pretty broad , what concerned me was the section under bugs , yes insectos , why would there be on the menu of any restaurant in the US bugs ?! It was really concerning . It’s an introduction to what some want us eating should chicken , pork and cows should be limited . The food was ok nothing very special and on the pricy side

We had a positive experience at Talavera, largely due to the wonderful hostess, Emily. She greeted us warmly and helped us find just the right table. The guacamole appetizer is the best I've had. And dining outside is an inviting option for a quieter and lovely atmosphere.

Delicious food, better than many other previous visits. Opener a “Queso Fundido” melted cheese and chorizo appetizer with small side of salsa, & small corn tortillas. Mains: Mahi tacos and a fish dish in salsa verde made with tomatillos with a side of fresh salsa and rice. Skinny margaritas made with agave and fresh lime juice. Really enjoyable late lunch! Service was good, place was packed glad we weren’t in a rush, just chilled with cool modern decor and enjoyed the food.

The food was good but the WORST service we have ever had. Our waiter was non-existent. Came to take our order and when we said we had questions, he said I'll be back. Took 15 minutes to come back. Finally placed our order and asked for another drink and water, but we never got either. Told the person that brought out the food but still nothing was done. Our waiter re-appeared when we were done with our meal and when we complained he didn't have anything to say. We were upset to have had such a bad night out. Definitely won't be returning.

My husband and I went to Talavera with friends. I found that they gave us just a few tortillas to eat with the queso frito. we were four people! Also, they made a mistake and brought an extra glass of wine that we didn't order. My husband and I ordered soup, so when we were having our soup, the whole order of tacos for the whole table arrived and of course, we hadn't finished our soup and there was not space for the plates. The waiter didn't care, he just pushed the plates and made room for the tacos, and of course later, nobody came to picked up the soup plates when we were done. We ended up eating cold tacos. Poor service. It's a shame, I've been coming to this place since they opened. I've have seen the quality going up and down either in service and food. I guess last night we weren't lucky, but excellent restaurants are the ones that their food and service is good every single time you go.

Esperabamos pasar una cena de año nuevo especial en familia y no fue para nada así, no se podia ni hablar con el volumen tan alto de la música, se supone que es un lugar para comer no un club de noche, las porciones de comida muy pequeñas y el servicio bastante regular, no recomendaría este lugar para una cena o comida familiar, fue muy decepcionante y frustrante nuestra cena de año nuevo.

We were able to easily make reservations. Unfortunately two members of our party were running late, however the hostess in the front made it very easy to accommodate and change our reservation in order to get a table once the rest of the party joined. The food and ambiance was great, however service could have been a bit better had to get up in order to get water, utensils and be able to place our food and drink orders as the waiter was not near or around our outside seating area. Overall expeirence was good however would have been great if service during our dinning was better.

6:45pm party of 3. Didn’t get our order taken until 30 minutes after being seated. It was wayyyyyy to loud. We sat inside. We couldn’t hear each other talk at all. Food was average. We were happy to leave.
