The blue decor of the restaurant on its awning and in its interior will make customers think of the blue of the oceans surrounding the ports of famous Mexican cities like Acapulco, Cancun, Playa del Carmen, etc. The name "Talavera" comes from the beautiful Mexican pottery made from Talavera clay found and made in the Puebla area of Mexico, where the battle was fought in 1862. The food is delicious and not only offers selections of pork, chicken and steak but also shrimp and fish as if caught that day by Mexican fisherman and brought to the restaurant in preparation for that night's entree.
