Huge menu, awesome food! I love Talavera’s breakfast burrito and mole enchiladas. I always have enough for leftovers too. While I usually do to-go orders, I always hit the fantastic salsa bar before I head home.

I am a Gordo’s burrito girl through and through, but occasionally I have to get my Talavera fix. It’s a little pricier than my go-to burrito spot down the street but the options at Talavera are a lot more vast.

Its restaurants like this that causes me to constantly question how does an establishment like Taco Bell exist in the Bay Area? This isn’t to diss your preferences if you love Taco Bell. But I am saying is Talavera Cocina Mexicana is not only affordable but almost criminally priced because it’s truly that good.

The burritos and nachos are sublime. This restaurant also makes great pastries. I have been occasionally stopped by for years now, and I can’t believe I’ve taken this long to praise such an amazing restaurant with truly friendly staff.

If you haven’t visited this place, and love Mexican food, you owe it to yourself.

The city of Albany has many great culinary gems and food s often overlooked. Today we indulged on Mexican cuisine at Talavera. The welcome greeting started things off. The staff was smiling and happy which really helped to turn our day around. There are daily specials posted and a robust menu of quality made to order dishes. We love family businesses and this family really has it together.
