" Oh wow, this place absolutely blew me away! I had been hearing about Talavera for quite some time, and it certainly lived up to the hype. The moment I walked in, the decor screamed ‘authentic Mexican’. I was lucky enough to try the mole sauce with chicken, and it was heavenly—rich, flavorful, and oh-so-perfect! The tacos al pastor were delightful too, but the highlight for me was the service. Our waiter was knowledgeable and seemed genuinely passionate about the food, which added to the experience—even suggesting pairings with unique Mexican wines. If you are in Miami, this is a can’t-miss spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" One of the best culinary experiences I’ve ever had! Talavera offers a mouth-watering selection of truly authentic dishes that take you straight to Mexico. I tried the seafood tacos which were fresh and packed with flavors typical of the coastal regions of Mexico. The ambiance was charming. Additionally, our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made exceptional recommendations, which enhanced our dining experience! A must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Talavera for lunch, and we enjoyed it thoroughly. The layout was perfect for both families and couples, and the atmosphere had a nice Mexican vibe to it. The guacamole was fresh and paired nicely with the tortilla chips. I ordered the chicken enchiladas, which were flavorful, but I found the portion slightly lacking considering the price. Service was attentive, but it took a bit longer to get our drinks. All in all, a decent experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, we decided to celebrate my birthday at Talavera Cocina Mexicana, and I couldn’t have been happier with our choice! The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for gatherings. We started off with fresh guacamole and queso fundido, both of which were outstanding. The margaritas were wonderfully balanced and refreshing. For the main course, I opted for the carne asada tacos, and they were mouth-watering. The attention to detail in every dish really brings the authentic flavors of Mexico to life. To top it off, our server was attentive and made great recommendations. I’ll definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a wonderful dining experience at Talavera! The atmosphere is lively yet cozy, perfect for couples or families alike. I ordered the fish tacos, which were incredibly fresh, and I could taste the love in each bite. The service was efficient, and our waiter was friendly and very attentive. I recommend trying their house margaritas—they are divine and the perfect way to complement the meal. I’m already looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Talavera the other day, and let me tell you—it was worth it! The food was fantastic, particularly the tacos, bursting with authentic flavor! I was delighted to find none of the usual American twists—just pure Mexican cuisine as it should be. I truly appreciated that they use only corn tortillas as well. The ambiance is charming, and the staff were accommodating. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for genuine Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Talavera Cocina Mexicana is a lovely spot in the heart of Coral Gables! My friends and I chose it for dinner, and I was thrilled with the food quality. I had the chorizo queso appetizer, which was fantastic! For my main dish, I tried the carne asada, which was delicious but not quite as memorable as the appetizers. The service was also good, but we did wait a bit longer for our main course. The ambiance was beautiful—definitely a place for a romantic dinner, or casual gatherings with friends!
