" I've had better experiences elsewhere, but Sabor does have a few standout dishes. The tamales are quite good, especially with the house salsa. I’ve had the carne asada plate before and found it decent, but I expected bolder flavors. The service can be hit or miss; during my last visit, the wait staff seemed overwhelmed. On a positive note, the restaurant's cleanliness and friendliness of the staff keep me coming back. I feel like it deserves a second chance because their tacos often have a good reputation. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Sabor Mexican Grill and was blown away by the authenticity of their carne asada tacos. Unlike other places where the tacos come in flimsy store-bought tortillas, Sabor’s handmade corn tortillas made a huge difference. The tacos were generously filled with flavorful meat, and I could taste the quality in every bite. The atmosphere is unpretentious but welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a casual meal. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The service at Sabor was exceptional! The staff went above and beyond during my visit, making sure my dining experience was seamless. I ordered the carne asada plate, and it was perfectly cooked and seasoned—very satisfying! I think what stood out the most was the homemade tortillas; they were soft and flavorful. I appreciate places that pay attention to their food quality, and Sabor certainly does. I’ll be back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to like Sabor, but my experience was less than stellar. The arrangements felt slightly chaotic, and I felt ignored as customers who arrived after me were served first. My nachos were overly greasy and lacked flavor; I left feeling disappointed. Service was friendly but not effective during rush hour. I wouldn’t recommend it if you're in a hurry as the wait times were longer than expected. " (*Curated Review*)

" Was craving some tamales and decided to give Sabor a try after hearing great things. I cannot believe how fresh and flavorful they were! Each tamale was filled generously, and the salsa was the perfect addition. I also loved the homemade corn tortillas, which really set this place apart. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and I left completely satisfied with my meal. A real treat for anyone looking for authentic Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Sabor was a mix of highs and lows. While the food quality is generally good - the chicken enchiladas were tasty - I had an awkward situation with my order that took a while to get sorted out. Despite that, the hostess was very apologetic and ensured I was taken care of. I appreciate that they value hospitality. The restaurant has a lively atmosphere filled with the aroma of spices and grilling meat, which is always a good sign. I’ll give them another try to see if my experience improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Sabor based on recommendations but left feeling underwhelmed. While I appreciate the authenticity of the tortillas they use, the carne asada was overcooked and bland. The service was friendly, but it felt a bit disorganized. It took longer than expected for our food to come. The restaurant has a casual vibe, but I will need to reconsider my visits if the quality is inconsistent. I may try again, but my last experience wasn’t up to my expectations. " (*Curated Review*)
