A friend & I recently lunched at Talavera & was surprised by the terrible service, deceiptive lunch specials ! They had lunch specials that inlcluded a drink, main course & dessert. They charged at the end all of the foods that were part of the special lunch menu. The service people were on their phones & not attendiing to the... More

Went for lunch. Their lunch special at $13 was reasonable, and a good value. Service was good and prompt. I had the cochinita pibil huarache, which is seasoned, slow cooked, pulled pork on a toast resembling a sandal (huarache). The pork was tender, albeit a bit salty. The toast it sat on was not impressive. Also had a margarita on... More

Miami's jump on and jump off buses cover a city tour and a beach tour. If it's near meal time take the city tour and ask that you be left off near 2299 Ponce de Leon Blvd., then you will be about one block from Mexico (Talavera Restaurant).

Walked by here stopped on pure luck. The service was first rate. The management and staff seemed to really care how you enjoyed everything.

This is not your Tex Mex type food. This is the real deal and the good is outstanding. The night we were there it was packed with locals raving about the food.

We went for a late lunch on Saturday, so the place was quiet and we were seated outside in the sun. The food was great, esp the green spicy sauce, and complemented with fast service. Might be a bit pricy but we had seen some good reviews so wanted to try, so check the menu before you go.

Been there by myself and had nice food, nice drinks. Don't go waiting for large portions, but the food is good, tasty and with a nice proposal of traditional mexican food with a twist of modern.
